    Has it ever occurred to you that the Bible probably ought to be rated “R”? It’s definitely not G, and parental guidance is certainly needed. I don’t think it rates an X, even though there’s an awful lot of violence, especially in the OT, and even some sexually ...read more

    "Salt and Light" is a part of the Sermon on the Mount series. We look at both the qualities of being salt (creates thirst, a seasoning, part of the sacrifice, and preservative), and light (exposes and guides).

    Sermon on the Mount “Salt and Light” Matthew 5:13-16 There are two things that we value that seem so insignificant at first, they don’t even come up on our radar, but they’re actually needed for our survival. The first is salt. Too little of it and your food can be under ...read more

    Our tendency to institutionalize everything has crept into the church as well. With this the idea of limited liability has also crept into the Church. But Jesus' message is not of limited liability.

    We are meditating on the topic of Fellowship this month. All of you know that we are called the Bangalore Bible Fellowship. How many of us know what we stand for, what BBF stands for? What is our purpose? I want to start with that today. The Purpose Statement of Bangalore Bible Fellowship reads ...read more

    Theme for coming year: 15 Be very careful, then, how you live-- not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is. (Ephesians 5:15-17).

    A Fresh Start! Back in the 1960’s experts predicted that by the turn of the century technology would have taken over so much of the work we do that the average American work week would be only 22 hours long, & that we would work only 27 weeks a year.

     | 15,628 views

    Bad habits can really bring us down. We need to replace them with good habits. This sermon encourages others to do so.

    The Bible says we are to confess our sins to one another. Therefore, I am going to confess a sin of mine to you this morning. In fact, it has become a habit. I feel comfortable confessing a habit of mine to you because I suspect that all of us are subject to this habit. The habit of mine is called ...read more

    Jesus said his purpose was to give us "a rich and satisfying life." But sometimes it seems our life is a lot less than satisfying. Did we miss something in what He said?

    Last week we talked about our dependence on God as He is the One with our future in his hands. We made a Declaration of Dependence on him that read; “We hold this truth to be self-evident, that all men are created equal in sin, that through grace, they have been endowed by ...read more

    In an increasingly impatient world it is essential for the believer to continue in prayer and wait patiently on the Lord, in spite of the tendency to the contrary! The world may be in a hurry but God is always on time! Wait on Him!

    Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. Grudge not ...read more
