    "I Will Make You Fishers Of Men”

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 5, 2022
     | 1,846 views

    There are some things in the Bible that people sometimes feel they can be justified in saying, “I do not understand what that passage means.”

    In those cases, we feel that God is not going to hold them responsible. However, some passages even the new convert can understand and obey. We know God does hold us responsible, and we will give account for those things we do understand. For example, the Bible clearly teaches that every ...read more

    How many of you struggled with hopelessness during the last year? How many of you felt burnt out over the last year? How many of you struggled with anxiety or depression in the last year?

    “I am not a connoisseur of great art, but from time to time a painting or picture will really speak a clear, strong message to me.

     | 1,162 views

    This is the second sermon in this series on MAKE ME A BLESSING. When the apostle Paul writes to young Timothy and us to be a blessing we have to a “Man or Woman God.”

    But he does not leave him guessing what it takes to be a MAN OF GOD. In verse 11 he tells him and us as we saw in last week’s sermon… 1) We must FLEE from sin. 2) And today in this sermon he instructs us there are somethings we must FOLLOW after. Look at 1 Timothy 6:11 But thou, O man of God, ...read more

    No Resurrection? How Does That Make Sense?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 17, 2024
     | 385 views

    It’s not clear what the back-story is for this claim, but it leads to one of Paul’s best little classes in logic. Perhaps there was a Sadducee-trained Jewish Christian in Corinth. They didn’t believe in any resurrection.

    Friday of the Twenty-Fourth Week in Course 2024 From the beginning of the Church way back in the first century Christians have been proclaiming and celebrating the physical Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. That was a real historical event that occurred three days after He was murdered ...read more

    The Truth Shall Make You Free!

     | 1,800 views

    One of Jesus' better-known statements is recorded for us in John 8:32. Some see this as political freedom, but it goes much further, for it describes Jesus Himself and the power to set us free from the oppression of sin.

    When we think of the concept of freedom, we here in America refer to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights that guarantee us freedom of religion, freedom of the press, the right to address our grievances, the right to bear arms, the freedom to assemble peacefully, and the right to legal ...read more
