    "The Man & His Wife...were Not Ashamed." By Dr. Winson Butler

    Contributed by Winson Butler on Apr 5, 2005
    based on 5 ratings
     | 1,588 views

    Excuses are the nails used to build a house of failure. The Genesis’ account answers the age old question, "Who’s to blame." There are no more excuses and we can discover this as we examine it together!

    Introduction We’d all like to say, "It’s was their fault..." we’re always looking for someone else to blame. No one wants to accept the responsiblity for their own actions, it’s always "Someone elses fault." This isn’t something new either. It dates as far back as the Genesis account. It began in ...read more

    Most of us, when our sins are found out, are quick to look for a scapegoat. So let’s look at some of the ways we use to blame someone else for our sins.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER CENTRAL CHRISTIAN, BROWNSVILLE, TX A. Folks, as you can see in the bulletin, the subject of my sermon is "How Do You Determine What is Right & What is wrong?" But as I worked on it this week it became obvious to me that the subject is just too big to ...read more

    Who Did It?

    Contributed by Mark Berry on Dec 6, 2001
    based on 100 ratings
     | 16,520 views

    This sermon deals with marriage issues. In counseling couples I have found that they use the blame game. This sermon deals with some of those issues that cause strife in marrage and how to deal with it.

    “All Right…Who Did It?” 1 Cor. 7:2-5 But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband. [3] The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. [4] The wife’s body does not belong to her alone ...read more

    It is all Adam’s fault. Blame him, he did it; you did not eat of that tree, so why are you suffering? Fortunately, Christ repaired the damage that Adam did.

    THE STORY OF GOD: THE FIRST AND SECOND ADAM THEME: CHRIST REPAIRED THE DESTRUCTION OF ADAM’S SIN TEXT: ROMANS 5:12-21 She stepped into the 2006 Mustang Convertible. It was her first car.

    SHEMEI HAD A TREMENDOUS HATRED FOR DAVID BECAUSE HE WAS OF THE HOUSE OF SAUL AND HE HAD ANGER AND RESENTMENT IN HIS HEART BECAUSE SAUL WAS DEAD AND HE BLAMED DAVID FOR HIS DEATH.

    STAYING WITHIN YOUR BOUNDARIES 1 KINGS 2:36-46 36 Then the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, “Build yourself a house in Jerusalem and dwell there, and do not go out from there anywhere. 37 For it shall be, on the day you go out and cross the Brook Kidron, know for certain you shall ...read more

    Black Sheep

    There are many out there, when they go through persecutions and problems, blame God and others and sulk, instead of searching themselves for any hidden sins, disobedience or anything else displeasing God.

    Black sheep Joshua 7:12'. I will not be with you anymore unless you destroy whatever among you is devoted to destruction."

    As Christians must not live in fear. We can either live on the "Solid Rock" or the shifting sands of the world. We need fearless faith knowing our hope, our faith, and our confidence is found in Jesus.

    Intro: The Journey of life is not an easy it can be joyful or full of disappointments, dark, and painful. How quickly we become fearful and disheartened and find ourselves living in fear, wondering what’s next. As Christians, we don’t have to live that way. We can either live on the "Solid ...read more

    Yet, In this text, we witness the downfall of king Saul and his choice to rebel against God. Saul was chosen by God, anointed by Samuel and celebrated by the people, and given many victories against Israel’s enemies, but he fell from grace.

    Sermon – Dangerous Steps To Downfall Scripture Lesson - 1 Samuel 15:10-29 “Then the Lord said to Samuel, “I am sorry that I ever made Saul king, for he has not been loyal to me and has refused to obey my command.” Samuel was so deeply moved when he heard this that he cried out to the Lord all ...read more

    What did Saul do that was so wrong? And if he was condemned for disobedience, what does that mean for us when we disobey?

    OPEN: A mother was telling about her 6-year-old daughter, Lori, who was studying 1 Samuel 15:22—"To obey is better than sacrifice" for her Bible memory course.

    We're On God's Team

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 18, 2023
     | 2,168 views

    One of the unquestioned beliefs in the Church today is that God is in control of everything that happens in our lives and on this planet. This message addresses this belief using the analogy of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit as coaches of a football team.

    Turn with me to Romans 12. We're going to read verses four and five. (4) For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: (5) `So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.” Some years ago, a well-known professional ...read more

    The Other Thief

    Contributed by Rodney Johnson Sr., on May 8, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,705 views

    The other thief shifts our focus from the more familiar thief. We know the one that ask Christ for a memorial. But what about the "the other thief" who died insulting the Lord?

    The text teaches many lessons. Let’s consider the following thoughts: I. There are Only Two Types of People in the World: believers and unbelievers. II. There is no Salvation in Physical Closeness to Jesus. (The other thief hung next to Christ without accepting Him) He hung next to the "bread of ...read more
