Blessed Are The Peacemakers?

Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on Aug 23, 2022

Peacemakers are called the Sons of God because they have been given new hearts through the work of grace to reflect the peace of Christ to a hurting world, for those who bring the message of God’s peace to the world are "peacemakers," and Jesus calls them "The Children of God."

Fiery Furnace Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 28, 2022

The great men of the kingdom came from far and near and stood around the image. Among them, by command of the King, were Daniel's three friends, the young Jews, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. For some reason, Daniel himself was not there.

An Outline Of Acts 15

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Sep 9, 2022

Acts 15 is an important chapter. Once and for all, the Church, under the Holy Spirit's leadership, made it plain that Gentile believers were not to be under the Law of Moses. The chapter closes with a pair of departures.

Introduction: This chapter covers the first Church Council meeting in Jerusalem, and the decisions reached after all sides presented their statements. The result was a request for Gentile believers to stop doing four things which Jewish-background believers, and possibly unbelieving Jews, would ...read more

Roll That Stone Away! Series

Contributed by Brian Williams on Sep 20, 2022

Can you imagine Jesus who is 100% God and 100% human walking into the middle of a situation that would, to most people, seem completely hopeless? Hearing the wailing of friends and family over Lazarus’ death, then listening to Martha and Mary express their heartache? They were so disappointed that ...read more

Creation Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 21, 2022

Help Me God, I'm Angry Series

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Sep 25, 2022

Anyone can be angry. The old can become angry as well as the young. The rich and the poor - all people have the capability to become angry. If I were to ask, of all the human emotions you're capable of experiencing, with which one does it seem to be the most difficult for you to cope?

A Full Examination Of Gog And Magog From Ezekiel 38 & 39 – Part 2 Of 2 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 3, 2022

This Gog Magog war must be just before, or at the Second Coming. It is an invasion of Israel before the Second Coming, probably headed up by Russia. Ezekiel 38 and 39 deals with the whole matter and we examine that. Israel moves into great blessing following Gog's defeat.

I'm Glad I'm Not There

Contributed by Imelda Mesa on Oct 3, 2022

We don’t have all the answers to life’s hard questions, but God has. His ways are higher. His thoughts are greater. He fights our battles even those ones that we don’t know about.

When God Messes Up Our Plans

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Dec 26, 2021

When Jesus was born, nobody expected it, and nobody made plans for it. But what it did was mess up everyone’s plans. Our plans don’t always go the way we want. So, when God messes up our plans, what can we do not to allow these plans changes to wreak havoc in our lives?

Notice, he wanted them to know how important this message was by introducing the message by saying, “Thus saith the Lord of hosts…” before he gave the message. In other words, he wanted them to know what he was ...read more
