     | 1,887 views

    Every true Christian has concern for the salvation of loved ones. For some, it is hard even to imagine them being saved. So we raise the question: how close are your loved ones to salvation?

    HOW CLOSE TO BEING SAVED ARE MY LOVED ONES? SCRIPTURE: Romans 10:8-11 [8] But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; [9] That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart ...read more

    When we complain to God we do need to share our thoughts and concerns but once we are done we then must wait-listen-learn-trust and be quiet once God has answered.

    Habakkuk part 3 - “God’s Answer Too Complaint’s” Thesis: When we complain to God we do need to share our thoughts and concerns but once we are done we then must wait-listen-learn-trust and be quiet once God has answered.

    "I Never Knew You!" By Dr. Winson Butler

    Contributed by Winson Butler on Feb 1, 2005
    based on 11 ratings
     | 2,284 views

    "Control your generosity when it comes to a chronic borrower." is good advice to follow. Something else too wouldn’t hurt if others would listen to it & it concerns eternity. Let’s examine it together!

    Introduction I’ve heard many say, "It’s the harshest words ever spoken by Jesus Himself." Maybe, but true none the less! In the closing remarks of His sermon on the Mount, Jesus pointedly said, "One day, some of you standing here will hear the very words, I never knew YOU come from God’s own ...read more

    The God You Can Trust

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jan 29, 2004
    based on 35 ratings
     | 5,783 views

    Jesus has one overriding concern in life - our welfare. He had compassion on us, sacrificing himself for our benefit. We take comfort in a God whom we can fully trust.

    To the early Christians, this particular event in the life of Jesus is an important one. It is the only miracle of Jesus that is reported in all 4 Gospels. Apparently there is something significant here that the 4 authors want us to see. After a particularly intense period of ministry, Jesus had ...read more

    Parables Lamp, Seed, Mustard Seed: The Mysterious Principle

    Contributed by Peter Loughman on Aug 3, 2007
    based on 30 ratings
     | 13,141 views

    The three parables are examined in detail. These parables are eschatological in nature. These parables are written to give us reassurance in our faith right now and also to give us insight concerning the nature of the coming of the kingdom of God.

    Today in our Scripture Jesus teaches us three short parables which all tie together to form a fuller understanding of who God is and how he operates in our lives. You’ll notice as we read the Scripture today there are some verses that are quite difficult to understand and on a first reading we may ...read more

    Who's In Control?

    based on 117 ratings
     | 25,963 views

    The text concerns David’s desire to build a temple "house" for God, and God’s response that God will build David’s house. We often try to control God, but God is in control, not us.

    Who’s in control? David has come a long way from being a shepherd boy in Bethlehem and the youngest of 8 sons to being the king of Israel, who reunited the northern and southern Kingdoms, established the capital at Jerusalem, and moved the ark of the covenant into the city. He ...read more

    One Thing Jesus Could Not Do

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,878 views

    Jesus’ tormentors taunted Him, saying, "He saved others; He cannot save Himself." They unknowingly spoke the truth concerning Him. Indeed, He could not save Himself ... if we were to be saved.

    MATTHEW 27:42 ONE THING JESUS COULD NOT DO “He saved others; He cannot save himself.” Boisterous, mocking religious men surrounded the cross. Laughing at the helpless man hanging suspended between life and death, they belched out vile, venomous scorn. Among the taunts they hurled at Him as He ...read more

    As we look into this moment spent between Jesus and Jairus concerning his dying daughter, we see just how gracious God is and how our faith should be during the tough times of life.

    Moments with the Master Series A TEARFUL MOMENT Mark 5:21-43 Intro In 1871, tragedy struck Chicago as fire ravaged the city.

    Knowing what awaits believers in heaven gives us confidence in what comes next. In this passage Peter is very descriptive concerning what life will be like for those who trust in Christ for eternal life.

    THE INHERITANCE OF THE BELIEVER 1 Peter 1:3-5 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does ...read more

    Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Mar 4, 2008
    based on 5 ratings
     | 4,694 views

    Here is my concern: There is a movement in Christianity to take us backward, backwards, into the failures of the Old Testament. In the New Testament, We have been given a friend that sticketh closer than a brother, the Holy Spirit!

    Title: “My Best Friend, the only one that I can trust” Text: (Prov 18:24 KJV) …there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

    Contributed by Kevin Burden on Jul 28, 2008
    based on 77 ratings
     | 32,341 views

    These six words cause me to wonder, are we really concerned about the souls of others? Do we care if the unsaved perish? Do we care that when the lost die lost they are lost forever?

    The Six Saddest Words in the Bible Psalm 142:4 “I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.” The word “soul” appears 458 times in the bible and the word “spirit” appears 505 times.
