     | 3,513 views

    The absolute supremacy of Christ means we are safe in his arms.

    We all like to feel safe and secure. When I was a young lad, I had this dream that has stayed with me for 45 years. I dreamt about a large house with a flight of external stairs. For some reason I was scared, I couldn’t work out why. Then I felt compelled to climb the flight of stairs—step by scary ...read more

    There is only one way to acquire real lasting joy and that is personally knowing the Good Shepherd.

    Text: “Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation” (Habakkuk 3:18). There were problems in the world when Habakkuk wrote these words. At the time, the Babylonians were very strong and Judah (the southern kingdom) would soon feel the pressure and destruction of the ...read more

    The Peace Of Faith Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Apr 20, 2009
    based on 36 ratings
     | 26,127 views

    What is it that makes these verses so forceful? To me it is the courageous way in which Habakkuk faces possible calamities & triumphs over them through knowledge & faith in his Savior. Habakkuk has learned the lesson of faith taught in 2:4

    Habakkuk 3:16-17 THE PEACE OF HABAKKUK’S FAITH [Psalms 18:18-33] The last section of this glorious chapter contains some of the most moving verses in all the Bible. On one occasion it was used by Benjamin Franklin, who was not a Christian, to confound some of the sophisticated, cultured ...read more

    Getting Over

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 7, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,535 views

    God wants us to be more than minimal. Acknowledge that Christ is Lord, make sure our witness is clear, go beyond quick thrills, and be faithful, and your faith will sustain you over the long haul.

    Too often, we choose "getting by", when we could choose "getting over". Too often, we try to skimp on life, hoping not to invest too deeply. That’s "getting by". But we could turn to a better answer. We could choose "getting over". "Getting by" and "getting over" are not the same thing. "Getting ...read more

    Like Pergamos, today’s church seems to keep only a moderate distance from the world, but both the world AND the church are moving downhill in tandem, and further away from Jesus. Link inc. to formatted text, audio/video, PowerPoint.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,285 views

    To have singing joy in our hearts, we must be ready to serve when God’s time comes, to discern the will of God, and to avoid all escape mechanism.

    I would wager that most of you can finish this sentence. You will have heard it a thousand times. Try it. "If you are going to talk the talk, then you have to what?" "Walk the walk". If you’re going to talk the talk, then you have to walk the walk. It means, of course, that what you profess ...read more

    Put your trust and hope in God, not government.

    As a political libertarian I found myself somewhat irritated with the section of scripture we’re studying this morning.

    based on 14 ratings
     | 3,607 views

    So much in our lives seems temporary; but God can give us a fresh start, can transform our incompleteness, and can give us hope.

    Somebody asked me, when I was getting ready to take study leave, “Why are you doing this? Are you going for another degree? Are you preparing to take another job? And did the deacons make you do this?” Well, I said, I’m taking the study leave because I don’t get much reading time under normal ...read more

    Interactive sermon on the anxieties involved in sharing our faith and on the power of being prepared, both intellectually and emotionally.

    Always be ready to make your defense to anyone who demands from you an accounting for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and reverence. Closed doors intimidate me.
