    A study of the Gospel of Mark chapter 3 verses 1 through 6

    Mark 3: 1 – 6 All Hands On Deck And He entered the synagogue again, and a man was there who had a withered hand. 2 So they watched Him closely, whether He would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse Him. 3 And He said to the man who had the withered hand, “Step ...read more

    A Committed Christian Appeals To An Unbelieving World” Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,176 views

    What made the early believers so effective in sharing their faith?

    In Matthew 5:13-15, Jesus says His followers are to be “salt” and “light” in the world. Just as salt makes one thirsty, the testimony of Christ followers is to create a thirst in the hearts of those who do not know Him. And, just as light helps us see things clearly, the ...read more

    The Second Coming

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 17, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 14,069 views

    Jesus' answer to a two- or three-pronged question revisited.

    THE SECOND COMING. Matthew 24. I have been looking anew into Matthew 24, trying to view the passage without the prejudices of popular opinion. It has been quite a humbling exercise. There are aspects of every reasonable point of view about the second coming of Jesus which do bear scrutiny. But ...read more

    Women And Christianity Pt. 1 Series

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Dec 16, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,604 views

    The teachings of Christianity were revolutionary. The ideas and doctrines found in the New Testament were radically different from the ideas and doctrines found in the rest of the world. One area where this was true was the status and rights of women.

    The advent of the Feminist Movement in our Country in the late 1960s and early 1970s promoted the assertion that women were oppressed, being deprived of their equal rights and equal opportunities in society. They attacked Christianity as being patriarchal by denying women the opportunity to be in ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,714 views

    Jesus shares illustrations to show that his return will be sudden and unexpected. His call on us is to be ready at any moment. The First Sunday of Advent reminds us that Jesus came, and Jesus is coming again!

    Matthew 24:36-44 Maintaining Readiness The military has a readiness system of green, amber and red, to illustrate threat levels we might face at any given time. When you go on base or on post, you’ll see a Force Protection Condition, or FPCON, ranging from normal to delta. Likewise, the president ...read more

    In every church in Christendom, we will eventually be confronted with some great personal offenses.

    Prelude, Purpose, Plan In every church in Christendom, we will eventually be confronted with some great personal offenses. How can we better deal with major conflict? Is conflict resolution always possible or even realistic? What can we do when our grievances are ignored? Why is conflict a part of ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 15,204 views

    For at this chapter begins that which is called the passion-week. He rode in on a donkey. When we get to thinking too much of our self, we need to remember, we are just donkeys carrying the WORD. The glory goes to Jesus.

    I’M JUST A DONKEY SCRIPTURE: Matthew 21:1- 11 ; Mark 11:1-10; Luke 19:29-40 (READ); John 12:12-19 INTRODUCTION: For at this chapter begins that which is called the passion-week. M. H.

    Jesus Gives Us Truth Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,539 views

    The Holy Spirit tells us the truth. He tells us the truth about sin (the sin of unbelief), about righteousness (in Jesus), and about judgment.

    WHAT JESUS IS DOING here is: He is consoling his disciples. This is the last night before his death, and he tells them that he is gong away. And, of course, they are sad. But he reassures them. He tells them that his departure is for their good. “It is to your advantage that I go ...read more

    I Am Barabbas Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,705 views

    Jesus was killed while Barabbas, the genuinely guilty, was set free. This is a picture of salvation in that Jesus died so we, the guilty, may be set free.

    The Irony of Good Friday… I am sure that the irony that reveals itself in the fact that we refer to today as Good Friday does not escape our minds.

    based on 1 rating
     | 13,039 views

    One sign of the last days is the number of "believers" who defect from the faith.

    Through-out this letter, John refers lovingly to his audience as "little children." This book records the loving teaching of a father in the faith to those who were his children in the faith. One of the things that children need to learn as they grow up is how to tell time. John sought to teach his ...read more

    Accountability: Self Evaluation

    Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Dec 11, 2014
     | 6,295 views

    We need strong accountability in the "free" age in which we walk. If we would apply self evaluation we would not need others to correct us. It is easy to fall into bad habits.

    ACCOUNTABILITY: SELF EVALUATION... By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com Matthew 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. [2] For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. I. HAVE YOU EVER HAD AN APPOINTMENT ...read more

    Manipulation By Guilt Vs. Straightforward Requests Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 26, 2016
     | 5,860 views

    Manipulation is a dishonest method to control others, get our way, or make others think an idea was theirs; it stands in contrast to making honest straightforward requests. Manipulation by guilt is perhaps the most common form of manipulation.

    Manipulation by Guilt Vs. Straightforward Requests (topical) 1. A lot of persuasion — even in church — can be based upon emotion and a lack of logic. “Pastor Smith was winding up his sermon about the dangers of alcohol and the need for temperance. He shouted, 'If I had all the ...read more

    Location. Location. Location.

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 28, 2015
     | 4,891 views

    Each of us is either “in Adam” or “in Christ.” That is why I have called my sermon Location. Location. Location. Where you are – what your location is – makes all the difference in the world, and, more than that, it makes all the difference in eternity.

    James Montgomery Boice says that this is “possibly the most difficult [passage] in the Bible.” Great! Right? One thing’s for sure: Paul’s argument in these verses is dense and tight. One commentator begins by defining some of the terms in the text in hopes that that will ...read more
