Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 2, 2025

Devastating is Jeremiah’s description, for the suffering of infants is great. Judah sinned worse than Sodom. Once devastated, the rich became as poor. The world is in a lamentable situation, but refuses to look at the basic underlying cause - man’s sin against God. Repentance is needed!

THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 32 – INFANTS DIE OF HUNGER; RICH AND OPULENT NOW DEVASTATED IN THE STREET; JUDAH’S SIN GREATER THAN SODOM - CHAPTER 4:3-7 These laments continue and there is some “what was” and “what is now” in this message.

Can You Handle It?

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Aug 5, 2025

The Day Of Death Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 23, 2022

Would you baptize someone on Halloween? One preacher refused to do that because he saw Halloween as a focus on death... and he didn't want the young girl he was baptizing to become confused by the aura of death in the season, and having that connection ruin her walk with Christ.

Ordinarily I read a Scripture before each sermon because anything the Bible says is more important than what I have to say. But today I'm not going to do that. The text will still be there in the body of the sermon, but I'm not reading first because I don't want to spoil the surprise. ...read more
