    In today's lesson we are urged not to present the gospel according to the world's wisdom. Instead of relying on logic and rhetoric, we should focus our attention on the central message of the Person and Work of Jesus Christ.

    Scripture Today we continue studying The First Letter of Paul to the Corinthians in a series I am calling Challenges Christians Face. Christians in the church at Corinth had misunderstood the nature of wisdom with regard to salvation. From Paul’s perspective human wisdom opposes God’s ...read more

    If we want to be a part of the Kingdom of God we need to develop childlike faith.

    A Messiah Who Values the Child Within Text: Matt. 18:1-14 Introduction 1. Illustration: The more we know of God, the more unreservedly we will trust him; the greater our progress in theology, the simpler and more childlike will be our faith (J. G. Machen). 2. No one loves and values children ...read more

    A look at the third temptation of Jesus in Matthew. The temptation to use power for good, but not in God's way.

    The devil saves the best for last in his plan to tempt Jesus. He takes him to a very high mountain and shows him the glories of the nation of Israel, and in a vision shows him all the kingdoms of the world, both present and future. “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you ...read more

    A classic sermon by Dr. Adrian Rogers on facing the future with hope, confidence, and the assurance of heaven.

    I’m going to speak to you today on this subject: how to face your future. Now Americans are obsessed with the future. We want to know what’s in store for us.

    Teaching Our Children The Way To Go. Series

    Contributed by Dr. Amen Howard on Aug 23, 2013
     | 7,374 views

    From the beginning, the family has played a critical role in the outworking of God's purposes on earth. As the fundamental building block of society, it was designed to provide the context for the nurture and training of each succeeding generation.

    The family was also designed to reflect and flesh out spiritual truth. Scripture uses the imagery of the family to speak of our relationship with God in Christ. As believers, we are adopted children in the household of God (Rom. 8:15-17). We are also heirs with Christ (Rom. 8:17; Eph. 1:11; 3:6). ...read more

    Excelling In Goodness And Mercy Series

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Aug 19, 2021
     | 2,402 views

    In the pursuit for godliness they will discover there are some negative characteristics that will block their ascendancy to excellency. Yet, disciples also learn lessons about how to experience a life characterized by goodness, mercy, grace, and joy

    A major part of learning how to do something is learning the "do nots." To illustrate: One of my first lessons related to learning how to be a locomotive engineer involved learning certain things that I must not do—such as going to sleep. While pulling a train, you do not reach down ...read more

    Stones In The Road

    Contributed by Robert Henrich on Mar 19, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,197 views

    The ’stones’ on the gospel road – those difficult verses we stumble over or just pass by – are treasures if we take the time to stop and pick them up; two such ‘stones’ in the story of the raising of Lazarus speak of the intensity of Jesus’ love for us.

    I had to take my car into the shop in Binghamton last week, and I had a lot of time to kill. The waiting room didn’t look very inviting, so I decided to do something I haven’t done in a long time: I took a walk. At first it seemed as if the world had been put on pause, or at least slow motion; the ...read more

    Confidence Within The Chaos

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jul 26, 2016
     | 14,837 views

    Life is filled with uncertainty. In fact, life can be chaotic at times. It is easy to lose focus and stumble among the chaos. Fortunately, we do not have to succumb to the uncertainties; we can overcome in Christ.

    Confidence within the Chaos John 16: 32-33 We have read a passage from one of my favorite sections of Scripture. Beginning in chapter thirteen, and going through chapter seventeen of John, we find an intimate account of the last hours Jesus spent with His disciples prior to His arrest, trial, and ...read more

    What Are The Ingredients For Revival?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Feb 1, 2023
     | 1,392 views

    God’s chosen people are to be His representatives on Earth. But they often stumble blindly after idols when they forget the truth and their calling. Unfortunately, many Christians of today frequently resemble the “Chosen” in the Bible.

    Solomon had approached God to plan for the people of Israel for when they had sinned. God replied with four conditions for pardoning: 1. Humble yourself by conceding your wrongdoings. 2. Pray to God requesting pardoning and forgiveness. 3. Look for God constantly. 4. Abandon corrupt conduct and ...read more
