    God Uses The Ordinary To Do The Extraordinary

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 24, 2025
     | 301 views

    It is amazing how some things never change. For example, when Christ was here on earth they had two kinds of men, as we have today. • They had the ordinary man • They had the extraordinary man

    It never ceases to amaze me the people that God chooses to do His work. Such as… (1) David. In 1 Samuel 16:1-12 we read how… • Saul had been rejected as king and God sent Samuel to anoint a new king. Vs. 1-3 • Samuel went. Vs. 4-5 • Jesse and his sons were summoned to the sacrifice vs ...read more

    An inductive elimination of the myths many people choose to use in dealing with their feelings of guilt leading to the exposure of the only way to deal with our pasts – real forgiveness.

    Have you ever felt so guilty that you longed for FORGIVENESS or perhaps even PUNISHMENT?

    Will Any God Do In Our Life?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Sep 1, 2023
     | 770 views

    We are not to put anything between ourselves and God, but many do either intentionally or unintentionally.

    All believers have sinned, but we have an advocate with the Heavenly Father to ask for forgiveness. In verses 16-17: Theologians may contrast in their musings regarding what this transgression is, and regardless of whether the demise it causes is physical or spiritual. Paul composed that a few ...read more

    This is an important sermon, where we will learn the correlation between God’s provision, and his requirement for us to follow his instructions.

We are living in difficult days, but if those days cause us to turn more to God, then such difficulties may not be a bad thing, depending of course on the severity of those ...read more

    We should look like Jesus - or atleast his brother. When the world looks at you, who do they think of?

    Who do you look like? John 20:19-31 I have heard it said that every body has a twin in this world. I remember hearing that in high school.
