    New Life For Tired Bones

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Nov 29, 2021
     | 2,837 views

    There are three views of life presented in this poetic prophecy that we should reflect on today.

    New Life For Tired Bones Ezekiel 37:1-14 Introduction The legendary cheerful gift giver we refer to as Santa Claus has his origin in the life of St. Nicholas, often called Father Christmas. Nicholas was a Bishop in Myra, modern Turkey. According to legend he was a wealthy man who was widely ...read more

    How do we live in harmony? The secret is in the Lord’s Prayer, the beautiful prayer of the end-times that we recite in one voice every time we gather for Liturgy.

    2nd Sunday of Advent With this great reading about John the Baptist from Matthew’s Gospel, you probably expect me to sermonize on repenting of sin as a preparation for Christmas. You might anticipate an exhortation to examine your consciences, identify those actions and attitudes that estrange ...read more

    The Scientific Brilliance Of Genesis 1: A Second Helping

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 22, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,335 views

    One of the first sermons I wrote and posted for this site dealt with the scientific brilliance found in the first chapter of Genesis. There are other scientific standards found in this opening chapter of the inerrant and all-sufficient Word of God, and they are worth exploring and affirming.

    When I read the first chapter of Genesis, I do not see the development of an ancient myth or legend. I do not see the fruit of an overactive imagination of an anonymous sage trying to explain to his "backward" clan or tribe of how they came to be. I do not see any collection of ...read more

    Last time we were given a portion of Daniel’s vision that explained what would happen to the empires of that day. Four beasts representing different empires were seen in his vision. But the vision or prophecy is not over yet.

    Rejoice And Again I Say Rejoice!

    God knows what’s around the corner, He knows what’s up around the bend. He knows and that’s all we need to know! That’s where the hard part comes in, because human nature feels like we ALWAYS need to know more!

    Rejoice and again I say Rejoice! So lift your hands and praise the Lord, for He is good, and His mercy endures forever! (Psalm 106:1) Hebrews 13:15 15. Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name. Everyone ...read more

    The Meaning And Purpose Of Life

    Contributed by John Newbaker on Jul 10, 2021
     | 7,591 views

    There are many people today who feel that life doesn’t have meaning and purpose. They feel empty. Nothing interests them. They have no drive, no determination, and no desires. They’re depressed, discouraged, disillusioned, and dissatisfied. They feel they have no hope.

    I want to start off by asking 2 questions: 1/ Does this life have meaning and purpose, and if so, 2/ Where can we find the meaning and purpose of life? There are many people today who feel that life doesn’t have meaning and purpose. They feel empty. Nothing interests them. They have no ...read more

    The First Hinderances For Spiritual Growth: Having Not Been Born Again (1) Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,073 views

    I defined spiritual growth in terms of "being conformed to the image of His Son" Christian activities or ministries wouldn't guarantee spiritual growth, unless one has the spiritual life, to begin with. One has to be born again to start and grow in spiritual life.

    The four most common hindrances for Spiritual Growth. 1. Having not been born again by Barnabas Park Romans 8:29: For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the first-born among many brethren; Beginning today, I would like to share ...read more

    "only Use Words When Necessary??"

     | 2,418 views

    There are a couple of saying attributed to Francis of Assisi that have always been troubling to me. Every time we hear something from a preacher past or present what are we to do? We are to search the Scriptures to see if it is so, so let's do so!

    Was Francis Right? Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:3-5 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” And our memory ...read more

    Do You Live In The Fear Of The Lord All The Day Long?

    Contributed by David Leach on Jun 1, 2014

     | 5,200 views

    The fear of God and the fear of man are mutually exclusive. To be in the fear of man is to become a captive to the devil who set the snare of fearing man in front of me to catch my soul, to turn my will away from God.
