Essentials Of Faith

Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 4, 2023

In this exposition of Hebrews 11:1-6, the nature of faith (v. 1), understanding by faith (v. 3), and essentials of faith (v. 6) are explored. "Without faith it is impossible to please God." Therefore, the subject is of supreme importance.

We take our text today from Hebrews 11: the great faith chapter. We will begin by reading the first six verses. “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. 3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by ...read more

Faithful And Unfaithful Servants (Isaiah 22:15-25; Revelation 3:7-13) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 22, 2025

Focus is on the "key of David" as being about access to David's house/kingdom. Jesus has this key. Also, a focus on how Rev. uses OT in a not-straightforward way. Prophecy-fulfillment is not a good core model to use.

Last week, we took a one week rabbit trail into the first part of Isaiah 22. Today, we'll begin by finishing off Isaiah 22, reading the second oracle in that chapter. I will then more or less smoothly transition back to Revelation, to the letter addressed to the church in Philadelphia. So ...read more
