    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 14, 2023
     | 1,249 views

    The righteousness of the natural man is sick and putrid and corrupt. All have sinned and not one seeks God or pursues righteousness. What does “good” really mean? The whole body is sick with sin, and evil rapidly spreads.

Paul reveals many unpalatable facts but it is God speaking so we must heed what God says! Always heed what God says ...read more

    Jesus' physical return

    The Signs of the Times Pt. 4 Mark 13:24-37 It is ironic we are studying Mark 13 where Jesus taught about End Times as we hear about all of the things happening in Israel.

     | 444 views

    Prayer is an expression of sincere desire including praise, thanksgiving, lament, confession and requests. Prayer is our unique opportunity to talk to God, to converse with him which means that Prayer also is a way of God talking to us. Every believer needs the prayers of other believers.

    It is the year 44AD. Around 12 years from the death and resurrection of Jesus. So we can perhaps conclude that the growth of the church has already span 12 years and believers now included a vast number of Jews and Gentiles. With growth comes challenges, strife, arguments and even misunderstanding ...read more

     | 4,108 views

    The oracle given in Zechariah 1:12-17 is expounded. These comforting words are applicable to God's people today. We sometimes wonder when God will intervene in our behalf just as the Jews did in our text.

    Have you ever been treated unjustly and wondered why God seemed to ignore the oppression? When Babylon conquered Israel in 586 BC, they were extremely cruel to the captive Jews. Those Jews were experiencing God’s correction in their lives. But the Babylonians went way beyond that. They exacted an ...read more

    Jeremiah’s visit to the potter’s workshop was the means of God’s giving him an acted-parable of what he could do with the marred nation of Israel and mankind in general.

The prophet Jeremiah did this once. He tells us what he saw: "The pot he was shaping from ...read more

     | 4,045 views

    David’s emergence from grief over Absalom was marked by his "sitting in the gate" -- a sign of healthy recovery in that he had begun to care for others more than for his own wounds, he had returned to the work of justice, he faced vulnerability, he resumed leadership, he could face his own grief.

    I This day the noise of battle, the next the victory’s won. Or so the king hoped. Much was at stake. His own future was uncertain; the nation’s stability was shaky; the confidence of those around him was low; and, most of all, his relationship with his son was in jeopardy. There had been a ...read more
