    The writer encourages us to give “earnest heed to the things we have heard.” Or as the NIV puts it, “Pay more careful attention therefore to what we have heard.” As I examine this passage, I find at least three reasons why we should pay careful attentio

    PAY ATTENTION Hebrews 2:1-4 “Therefore we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away.” Pay attention!

     | 4,708 views

    We as a people of God need to be careful how we treat and look at one another, because the one that you thought you spiritually thought you put to death, may be the same one that shows up knocking on your doorstep one day & says, "You thought I was dead!"

    I. Introduction: In this particular text, Peter, after miraculously escaping from prison, shows up at the doorstep of Mary, John’s mother, to tell them the good news of what had taken place. Many people in the house had already deemed Peter to be doomed, as he was locked up in jail awaiting ...read more

    Ever timid of preaching about tithing? Don’t be! Malachi 3:6-18 brings a strong word of exhortation to all believers. We ought not to rob God by holding back our giving any more than we would put on a ski mask and rob a bank!

    Our lives in Christ are filled with all kinds of activity and change. Jesus living in us is changing us from season to season. Jesus is getting us ready for what we can not see. Jesus is the one who can help us put on our storm windows and insulate our

     | 5,639 views

    Remembering God’s goodness puts a song in your heart. What is the purpose of Christian song writing today? Where have we failed in it and how can we retract from it and set our hearts on songs that worship and please God alone. Consider what God might wan

    Opening illustration: I was delighted when I received a free gift in the mail - a CD of Scripture set to music. After listening to it several times, some of the melodies took root in my mind.

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,746 views

    Trust is something that develops and grows through time and faithfulness. But without trust (faith) we cannot please God. When we read in God’s word that He has never failed anyone who put their trust in Him, that should do something for our trust level.

    Overflowing with Hope Romans 15:13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. 1. God wants to fill you with joy and peace 2. Your trust in Him will help facilitate that transaction 3. God wants you ...read more

     | 6,942 views

    We’ve seen artist’s renditions of Jesus. The flowing blond locks, bright blue eyes and the light skin. Why this portrayal? Some might say to just put a face to what the bible has kept a secret. However, it subtly alludes to a deeper meaning. And that is t

     | 10,325 views

    We have all heard the story of when Peter denied that he knew Jesus. It happened when Jesus was arrested and taken to the high priest to face charges of blasphemy against God. Peter followed Jesus “from afar.” He feared that Jesus was going to be put t

     | 2,246 views

    Have you ever considered how improbably it is that Jesus fulfilled all the prophecies made about Him in the Old Testament? (He did, of course.) We'll take a look at Psalm 2, as well as other OT passages and discover more reasons to put our faith in Him.

    God, But Man (Strange, But True!)

    Contributed by Scott Jensen on Nov 11, 2019
     | 2,109 views

    Simply put, there is only one Jesus, but this Jesus has two natures: He is God and He is man. Paul explains this well as he points to Jesus’ human characteristics, like His death on a cross, while also asserting His divinity, saying that the very fullness of God dwells in Christ.

    The Son was both God and Man to restore His creation 1. Jesus really was a man a. Stepped out of heaven to be like us b. He was born just like us, lived like us, grew up like us c. Lived a humble lifestyle and pinched pennies d. He got tired like us i. Crowds followed him ...read more

    "The Heart Beat Of Jesus"

    Contributed by David Henderson on Nov 3, 2013
     | 11,686 views

    Years ago I heard Dr. Adrian Rogers put it this way: “the heart of the human problem is the problem of the human heart.” I agree. In other words if you really want to see change take place, you have to change someone’s heart.

    HEARTBEATS “The Heartbeat of Jesus” Matthew 6:21 I am sure that one thing all of us could agree on this morning is that our world is in deep trouble. America is in trouble and something has to be done. But what we might not agree on is what the solution actually is. Many of us would ...read more
