Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022

Rolling Stones

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Apr 2, 2022

One of major problems most people face today are blocked entrances or exits. You see, we’re caught in tombs with stones covering them, and these stones keep us from entering the light of an abundant life Jesus came to give, which is what the resurrection of Jesus is all about.

Rolling Stones Mark 16:1-8 Now, I knew the danger of naming today’s study, “Rolling Stones,” because many of you immediately thought of the English rock band by the same name with Mick Jagger and the crew. Or maybe you also thought about the monthly magazine from the 60’s whose focus was ...read more

God Is Not The Author Of Confusion

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 5, 2022

All of us have driven through neighborhoods and noticed that many of the houses are built with carports - some even with double carports - to park their cars out of the bad weather.

In many of these homes, from the street you see the garage doors are open, and you immediately come to the conclusion there is no way they could park a car in there because they are filled with what looks like junk. It is even dangerous to walk into some of these carports because you might get ...read more

Missing The Hour Of Our Visitation With God

Contributed by James May on Apr 10, 2022

A sermon preached on Palm Sunday. Israel missed the hour of her Visitation with God as they rejected Christ. Let us not miss our times of visitations but be prepared for his coming, both in our hearts, at the rapture and at his Second Coming as the King of Glory!

Today being Palm Sunday, we always reflect upon what it really means. 1,989 years ago, a young Rabbi named Yeshua sat on the summit of a mountain looking down over the city of Jerusalem and lamented deeply in his heart for the condition of the people that he had come to try and save from the ...read more

Second Commandment (2 Of 12)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022

As we preach through this series on the commandments I would like to remind you again of the importance of the importance of considering just why God gave these commandments to children of Israel.

God reminds them of that in verse 2, we read, “I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.” Isn’t it amazing, if I do you a big ...read more
