Nephilim And Satan Vs God Series

Contributed by Kyle Gray on Jun 22, 2014

The Bible is a cosmic chess match. God vs Satan, Good vs Evil, Angels vs Demons. Satan would stop at nothing to destroy the Messiah that was prophesied to "Crush his head" in the Garden of Eden!

The entire Bible is a chess match between God and Satan. Now we know that God is going to win in the end but we see countermoves by Satan to try to go against every move from God…right until his final breath in the last days! Romans 15:4 For everything that was written in the past was ...read more

Legend Of The Fall

Contributed by James May on Oct 11, 2009

The pattern, or Legend, of the fall of a man, or a nation, into judgment never changes. Neither does the sorrow of the Man of God as he watches it happen even though he does all he can to stop it.

Divorce Proof Your Marriage Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Jan 16, 2010

We divorce-proof our marriages when we stop looking for loopholes (or reasons to separate). Instead, we must look to the Lord, committing our selves first to Him then to our mates.

Gary Thomas, in his book, Sacred Marriage, tells the story of a businessman who moved over slightly as a young man crowded into the airplane seat next to him. They both fastened their seat belts, and the businessman good-naturedly asked as to whether the young man was traveling on business or ...read more

Heavy Lifting

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Feb 25, 2019

I believe in this day and age the Church is in the condition it is and can be summed up by understanding the importance of HEAVY LIFTING. I believe we have stopped doing the HEAVY LIFTING required to lead the Lost to Christ.

TITLE: HEAVY LIFTING SCRIPTURE: ST. JOHN 3:14-15 / ST. JOHN 12:32 One of the things I enjoyed about lifting weights is there's no gray area – • You either manage to lift a certain weight - or you don't • There are clear successes and clear failures • Either you Can or you Can’t • This ...read more

A Broken Crutch Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 2, 2021

You can't ask for a stronger statement on faith than this. Faith, when it is true faith, is identical with trust. Faith that stops short of trust is neither saving nor sanctifying faith.

My sister asked me how to answer that, and my immediate response was to deny it and tell her she doesn't know what she is talking about. As I reflected more, however, I ...read more
