The Witness Of The Law Series

Contributed by Ron Tuit on Feb 18, 2014

Two prevailing themes are knit together throughout the Bible, God's Law and God's Gospel. The law witnesses to the perfect character of God and the sinful character of man.

Law and Gospel: The Witness of the Law Exodus 20 “A recent survey by George Gallup Jr. revealed a startling trend in our culture.

The God Who Commands Series

Contributed by Dave Clark on Oct 8, 2014

In Sunday school we get the condensed version of the Ten Commandments but they can be read expansively, so that you are challenged to consider how the commandment may apply to all sorts of real life situations.

The Ten Commandments - Are They For Now?

Contributed by Graham Kettle on Oct 14, 2014

We hear about the 10 Commandments. In Jesus’ day Jews had to obey these and 600+ rules. But in these days, we don't like to hear about what we should or shouldn't do. So, Christian - can you dump them as many are preaching? Grace vs Law - who wins?

We are used to hearing about the 10 Commandments. The Jews of Jesus’ day had to obey these plus over 600 more rules. In these days, we do not like to hear about what we should or should not do. We do not like being told, “Do this,” or, “Don’t do that.” Have you ...read more

Judgment Begins With The House Of God Series

Contributed by Pastor Jeff Hughes on Jan 9, 2014

It's time to stand! Message on the Ten Commandments

It's Time To Stand Earlier this week, I was kind of stuck in a rut. I am sure that many of you have had that happen to you, and it happens to pastors as well. In short, I felt somewhat "stuck in neutral". The game plan, after a sabbatical of sorts from preaching in Revelation was to return to ...read more

No Other Gods Series

Contributed by Michael Sawyer on Nov 10, 2013

This is the first in a series that I preached on the Ten Commandments. The focus of the series was on the relationship between God and us and the relevance that the Commandments still have for us from that standpoint.

No Other Gods Exodus 20:3 "You shall have no other gods before me. The children of Israel are at Sinai. They have come to freedom by the hand of God in the plagues of Egypt, the parting of the Red Sea, and the destruction of the armies of Pharaoh. These things were done by God. Not by them. ...read more

A Jealous God Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Mar 1, 2015

God is “jealous” in the sense that He expects complete, exclusive devotion; not merely a partial, lukewarm, half-hearted religious observance. Worship belongs to God. He is worthy of worship and has a right to be “jealous” of it.

The Bible clearly teaches that God is a jealous God. That doesn’t sit well with us; the very notion of the jealousy of God sounds offensive. We think of jealousy as an entirely negative quality--a sin. Yet God declares that He is jealous. God restricts allegiance to Himself alone: ...read more

God’s List Of Do’s And Don’ts (1-3)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 15, 2022

Often, when God’s man has the courage to stand before the people of God, and declare the whole counsel of God’s Word, it does not earn him any favorable treatment.

Why? Because he tells them things they do not want to hear. For example, how many would turn to the astrology section of the newspaper, if it told them something like this, “You are a very dumb person, and because of that, some very bad things are going to happen to you today!” They turn to the ...read more

God’s List Of Do’s And Don’ts 2 Of 3

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 15, 2022

Again, I want to remind you that God gave us the ten commandments to tell us what HE LIKES, and what HE DISLIKES.

This is important, because it would not be fair for God to hold us responsible on the judgment day, if we did not KNOW WHAT IS and WHAT IS NOT acceptable unto him. Illus: That would be like going down a highway without any speed limit signs, and the highway patrolman pulling you over, and giving ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 15, 2022

This is the last sermon in this series on “Why God gave us the ten commandments

I would like to mention again, God gave us these ten commandments for many reasons, but the primary reason, is that God wants us to know what HE LIKES, and what HE DISLIKES. We are told that we have over twenty-two thousands laws on the books today. These laws continue to grow in number, because ...read more

Foundations For Freedom Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 6, 2021

When we see the Ten Commandments from the true Biblical perspective, we see them as gifts of grace. They came from God who first delivered Israel, and then gave the law to preserve that liberty He gave them. The origin of the law is God's love.

The Law And The Christian Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 6, 2021

Christians have recognized what observant men of all ages have noticed, and that is, that law that is a respecter of persons is an instrument of evil, whereas, law that treats all men equally is an instrument for justice.

An angry group of citizens shouted at their small town mayor-"Every city car that passes through here breaks the law by breaking the speed limit. You've got to do something about it, and do it fast." "Don't you worry," said the mayor with confidence. "I'll ...read more
