The Tongue As A Fire And A Member Of Our Body That Is Diffucult To Control! Series

Contributed by John Wright on Feb 1, 2010

James teaches that when the tongue gets out of control it can do as much damage as a fire when it gets out of control.

INTRODUCTION #13 1. Open your bibles to James 3:5-8. 2. James has had much to say about the tongue. 3. In comparison to the other members of our body the tongue is small. It is not near as large as our legs, our feet, our arms, our hands, our head and etc. 4. It is not near as large as these ...read more

Heavenly Cpr

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 28, 2010

1986, with an Assistant reading the part of Philemon. An imaginary set of letters between Paul and Philemon, emphasizing that a new relationship with Christ changes every human relationship, and calls for forgiveness and mutual support.

Among all the weighty theological treatises the apostle Paul wrote to the churches he had established, among all the complex sentences and profound thoughts and ponderous pronouncements, there is one little gem from the hand of the great apostle that is quite different. The little letter to ...read more

Jesus Never Called Shotgun

Contributed by Kirk Wannop on Jan 17, 2008

Jesus tells us to give up the seat of honour so His grace can flow through our humility

Jesus Never Called Shotgun Luke 14:1-14 Jan 20th, 2008 I have to confess that when I hear someone call “shotgun” it gets my hackles up a bit. When they say shotgun I hear “me; me; me.” It reminds me of when our kids were young I would tell them not to say “I’m the king of the castle and ...read more

In the continuation of our series we come across a situation where as Jesus was en route to heal Jairus' daughter he gets interrupted. But that interruption proves to be a help, not a hindrance.

THE RESURRECTIONS BEFORE THE RESURRECTION (part four) Mark 5:21-43 1) Jairus' problem (21-23) "When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake.

The Credibility Factor

Contributed by Rick Pendleton on Dec 30, 2014

Nehemiah had something beyond the authority that went with being a governor. He had something that had taken him over time, actually, and we learn later on about twelve years to fully earn. He had credibility

The Credibility Factor Nehemiah 5:6-5:19 Around 586 BC Nebuchadnezzar, king of the Babylonians, came into Jerusalem, came into Israel and destroyed the temple and destroyed the walls and took a bunch of guys prisoner, to put an end to Israel as a super power.

Peter The Son Of Lightning Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 18, 2021

Peter made mistakes, but he was not stupid. He never stuck with a mistake when he saw it for what it was. He was a great man just because he could retreat as fast as he advanced when he saw he was going the wrong direction.

Some years back a young girl was caught out in a thunder storm as she rode her bicycle. She made it to the top of the hill and then headed down as fast as she could go. When she got home she told a strange tale. Every time there was a flash of lightning blue flames ran across her handle bars. Had ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 15, 2022

We want to look at another conversation in the Bible that the Lord had with people He came into contact with daily.

This is a conversation between Christ and a Phoenician woman. WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT HER? We do not know a great deal about this lady, but the Scripture makes it clear: • She was Grecian woman (Gentile) • She was a mother • She was a mother with a serious problem When she came to the Lord we ...read more

"And He Brought Him To Jesus…”

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 18, 2022

Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, said to Peter and Andrew, “...Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” (Matthew 4:19).

He did not say, “I will try to make you fishers of men”, He said, “I will make you fishers of men.” Our job is to follow His leading, and He will make us into fishers of men. Even though this is a clear command from God, it is seldom obeyed by the majority. Illus: For example, it has been ...read more

Joseph Of Arimathea The Corageous Coward Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 18, 2021

It took the crisis of the cross to change his cowardice into courage. Sometimes it takes a crisis to bring out a man's true faith.

A fireman who was half dead from exhaustion and smoke inhalation, with face dirty and uniform covered with grime, staggers past the crowd and is almost deafened by their shouts and cheers for him. He has just come from a burning building where, at the risk of his life, he climbed to the third ...read more
