"Are You Dead Yet???"

Contributed by Michael Walker on Jan 19, 2003

Jesus had to die so we could live…we have to die so He can live through us so others can have life!!! Seems painful, but it’s oh so true. The way we think, the way we think it ought to happen and what the Word of God says is completely opposite.

"ARE YOU DEAD YET???” - John 12:24 - "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much." I’ll make it plain…Jesus had to die so we could live…we have to die so He can live through us so others can ...read more

4th sermon on the life of Joseph as inspired by the writings of Chuck Swindoll

For the most part our study of Joseph to this point has been rather sobering.

Last week we watched as he interpreted the dream of the cup bearer and knew for ...read more

Living As If God Matters Series

Contributed by Tim Bond on Aug 27, 2002

Nadab & Abihu serve as examples of what happens when we trivialize God and begin to live as if God doesn’t matter. Thank God for the grace that saves us from the consequences of our sin.

The story of Nadab and Abihu is not one of the most prominent in the Bible. - Unlike Samson last week, not one of those commonly taught in Sunday School. - Not in many people’s top 10 list. Some are probably thinking “Nadab & Abi-who?” The Hebrews had just been led out of Egypt. They had followed ...read more
