    Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (14 Of 16)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022
     | 1,650 views

    There are very few people that we come into contact with who say, "I do not believe in a God.”

    What surprises us about these folks, when we do come into contact with them, is that they will take God's name in vain, using His name when they curse. If they believe there is no God, why bother using His name like that, or at all? We may not know why they use God's name along with curse ...read more

    If you want to be heard by God, make sure God and not others are your audience, make sure that it is really you who is speaking, and make sure to forgive and to receive forgiveness.

    The morning worship service had reached an emotional climax during the pastor’s fervent prayer. He had carefully crafted it with fine liturgical phrases, hallowed by centuries of use. It was backed up by a throbbing organ, playing a hymn that gently drew worshipers back to thoughts of that amazing ...read more

    As we move forward in our series on Hebrews 11, we come to the account of Enoch. Enoch was quite a fellow who experienced something pretty extraordinary. In part three of what it takes faith to do, we will see that it takes faith to please God.

    IT TAKES FAITH (Part three) Hebrews 11:5-6 As we move forward in our series on Hebrews 11, we come to the account of Enoch.

    Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (2 Of 16)

     | 1,302 views

    In the first sermon it was mentioned that in order to understand the books of 1, 2, and 3 John, we first needed to understand some things about the place John wrote from, Ephesus.

    Because this is essential, I would like to refresh your memory before we get into the heart of this sermon. We dealt with these FOUR things about the Ephesian Christians: (1) THEIR HERITAGE. They were second and third generation Christians. Their parents and grandparents had been in the ...read more

    CHRISTIAN CHALLENGE TO BE SERIOUS ABOUT OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST

    How To Live Right

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2009

     | 8,541 views

    Our thinking drives our behavior. Rather than blindly accepting the trends in our society, Christians should allow their thinking to be shaped by revelation in the word.

    How to Living Right Romans 12:1-3 6-28-09 I begin this message today with an assumption. My assumption is this: Deep in the heart of every Christian is the desire to live right before God. I can’t imagine someone who is truly born again not wanting to please God. When the cry “Abba Father” comes ...read more

    A world changer is known not for what he gives up, but for what he takes up. Will you take up the challenge to be a world changer OR who just changes his clothes every day to look good?

    Opening illustration: John, do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water, or do you want a chance to change the world?” That was the challenge Steve Jobs issued in 1983 to John Sculley, then president of Pepsi-Cola. Mr. Jobs was the creative genius behind Apple Computer. ...read more

    Thoughts On Public Schooling: Should Christians Homeschool Their Children?

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 30, 2021
     | 1,677 views

    Many an average American boy or girl will be raised up in the school rooms of public education. I would like to share some thoughts from great minds on education itself, public education, and wisdom. I'd also like to share my personal experiences in the public education system.

    “The function of education, therefore, is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. But education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason, but with no morals.” ? Martin Luther King Jr. Many ...read more

    In chapter two we see why many think John was a “softy.” Look at verse 1. We read, “My little children...”

    As we read these words, we can not help but think of an old, gray-haired man expressing concern for his children. This was exactly what John was doing. In a pervious sermon we dealt with the two sides of John’s personality. • That is, he had the intestinal fortitude to be able to look at the ...read more

    A reading through Chapter Five of Lamentations. This is not a typical sermon.

    Letters Of Lament – Thoughts From Lamentations Chapter Five INTRODUCTION: There are times when we all lament – or need to lament.

    Kings of Judah, Pt 4

    IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO RAISE A CHILD (2 CHRONICLES 22:10-24:27) I enjoy reading bumper stickers on cars and one caught my attention more than most. It was on the back of a car that was in front of me at a red traffic light. The “Dear God” beginning made me curious and I read the rest before the ...read more

    Taking Time To Give Thanks Series

    When we think of God’s work in the lives of other believers, we should be moved to thankfulness for the faith, hope, and love that we see demonstrated in Christ followers.

    Taking Time to Give Thanks Several weeks ago, when we were organizing our file cabinet, I came across some love letters from Beth that I’ve kept ever since we were dating. When I found this folder, I immediately stopped working, sat down in the middle of the floor, and started browsing through ...read more

    "Overcoming Doubts, What Will It Take?”

     | 5,679 views

    Two kinds of doubters of spiritual truth....hard-boiled rationalists who say, “I don’t believe it.......” two of the doubters, Peter and John ran to the tomb. They found it empty. Include quote from Rev. Klaas abut the doubt that President Lincoln was dead. Lee Strobel was a doubter.

    What would happen if we took all of the Religious elements out of Christmas?

    Have you noticed that every year people seem more intent on secularizing Christmas? They wish you a “Happy Holiday” or “Seasons Greetings” then have presentations at school that make no mention of the Manger or the Wise Men let alone the Christ Child. Now I may be a little overly sensitive but ...read more
