The Parable Of The Good Father

Contributed by Thomas Donelan on Aug 4, 2010

Today we will look at a familiar passage of scripture commonly called the parable of the prodigal son but I feel a fitting title would be the parable of the good father. We see the selfishness of the two sons set off against the love of the good father.

Introduction Today we will be studying a fairly familar passage of scripture, familar to most of us as the parable of the prodigal son but most aptly called in my opinion the parable of the good father. Luke 15:11-12 And he said, A certain man had two sons: 12 And the younger of them said to his ...read more

Experience The Spirit Through Wisdom Series

Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Mar 31, 2011

How To Act As A Free Man

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Jul 2, 2009

Independence Day for us is when we came to Christ. Christ set us truly free. Some see this freedom as license; but true freedom has constraints. It’s not the right to do as we want but the opportunity to do what is right.

HOW TO ACT AS A FREEMAN 1 PETER 2:15-17 For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God. Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear ...read more

Friends Of God

Contributed by Rick Pendleton on Dec 17, 2012

There is a war raging between our self-indulgent nature and God. That war sets us at enmity with our brother, shuts the window of heaven and makes us Friends of the world .... and enemies of God. What can we do to avoid this and be friends of God?

The accuser will try to use anything he can to diminish your hopes and dreams in your life, including the ones around you, but the fact is this, Other people don’t set the limitations and parameters for your life, you do.

Others can’t but God can! Romans 3:3 NKJ 3. For what if some did not believe? Will their unbelief make the faithfulness of God without effect?
