  • Abraham: What Is Your Faith Made Of? Series

    Contributed by Bryan Parris on May 26, 2007
     | 3,531 views

    From the "Heroes" Series: A message on the testing of Our Faith based on the life of Abraham - Hebrews 11:11-19; Genesis 15:1-6; Genesis 22.

    WE finished last week, talking about the Life of Abraham with a PROMISE. God had promised Abraham that from His own flesh and blood, He would build for himself a great nation of people…and would give to them the land of Canaan that He had led Abraham to. There was one little problem. Abraham’s ...read more

  • God Always Provides Series

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Oct 30, 2024
     | 273 views

    God knows what His test will accomplish or reveal about Abraham’s character and, more importantly, what this test will reveal about Himself.

    We are continuing with our Genesis “From Dust to Life” series. Throughout this book so far, we have seen God bring life to people who were in impossible situations, some brought on by their own bad decisions or because of the bad decisions of others. Time and time again because of God’s ...read more

  • The Refiner’s Fire

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Mar 13, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,650 views

    In this passage, Ezekiel described the Babylonian exile as being the crucible in which Israel was melted down, and the godly (the silver) were separated from the unrighteous (the dross). The purpose of the refiner's fire is spiritual purification.

    I wish to begin our message with an illustration: There was a dedicated Christian woman who once visited a tourist attraction, which happened to be a working replica of a pioneer village; and one of the manned displays she observed was a silversmith shop. The woman watched the silversmith as he ...read more

  • Following Jesus, Even Through Trials And Tests Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 28, 2022
     | 2,130 views

    James, the half-brother of the Lord Jesus, knew about trials and tests. His words to believers of his day are just as true for us of these days, too. In a sentence, he'd say "Endure the test and receive a reward".

    Full disclosure: this is edited from a message preached at First Baptist Church, Chamois, MO in August 2022 Introduction: Many of us think following Jesus is going to be a walk in the park, so to speak, but that isn’t always true. Certainly, as He promised, He’s there with us, but trials and tests ...read more

  • Understanding Service - Test To Know If You Are Called (11) Series

    Contributed by Dove Inspirations on Jun 11, 2021
     | 811 views

    Encouragement for workers in GOD'S Kingdom

    Many have tossed and turned, prayed and fasted and consulted men of GOD with the intention of finding out whether they are called or not. It is well understood that no person comes into this world without the knowledge and plan of GOD and outside HIS purpose. Not even the vilest person. We then ...read more

  • The Greater Blessing - Genesis 15 Series

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Jun 4, 2024
     | 323 views

    Life is filled with choices and opportunities. How do we know which choices to make and what opportunities are from God or not?

    Last week we studied the passage in Genesis 13:3-18 where we saw that Abram and Lot were prospering, so much so that they needed to expand their territory and go their separate ways. Throughout this transition, Abram stayed close to God and learned to settle things God’s way. Lot on other hand ...read more

  • Led Into Temptation Series

    Contributed by Aneel Aranha on Feb 22, 2021
     | 796 views

    In our Lord’s Prayer, we beseech God not to lead us into temptation. Can he? Does he?

    Scripture Reading: Matthew 6:7-15 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. “This, then, is how you should pray: “‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed ...read more

  • Faith PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Sep 28, 2023
    based on 3 ratings
     | 691 views

    Explore the true meaning of faith in God, emphasizing that it is about believing in the unseen but real, and that such faith should define our lives, with evidence in our actions and rewards from God.

    Good morning, brothers and sisters in Christ. Today, we're diving deep into what it really means to have faith in God. And we're not talking about a wishy-washy, only-on-Sundays kind of faith. We're talking about a faith that's so strong, so unshakeable, it defines who we are and how we live our ...read more

  • Leftovers

    Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Oct 3, 2013
    based on 12 ratings
     | 50,251 views

    Why did Jesus send his disciples around after everyone was full to gather up the fragments that remained? It is interesting that we are not told what Jesus had done with the leftover fragments.

    TITLE: LEFTOVERS SCRIPTURE: ST. JOHN 6:5-14 What an exciting passage of Scripture that should stir us every time we read it. It has always interest me that this particular Miracle is one of a select few recorded in all four Gospel Narratives. It therefore has significance in its teaching to us ...read more

  • Ask For Wisdom Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 26, 2021
     | 2,015 views

    James is not the James who was one of the 12 apostles and killed by Herod Agrippa I in the YEAR AD 44. Instead, James was the half-brother of Jesus (Matt. 13:55),

    I. There are certain realities of life common to all believers – 1:2-1:18. A. Trials and testing will come and can be overcome -- 1:2-8. 3. Ask for wisdom -- 1:5. Text – James 1:5 (KJV) If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it ...read more

  • Let Jesus Show You How To Face Temptation Lesson 2 Series

    Contributed by Elmer Towns on Oct 12, 2023
     | 755 views

    Your best defense against temptation is quoting the written Word of God. Therefore, learn the Bible, memorized the Bible, and use the Bible.

    “Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil … fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards … hungry. The tempter said ‘if you are the Son of God … stones become bread. Jesus … ‘It is written man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word … mouth of God.’ ...read more

  • It’s Up To You

    Contributed by Thomas Swope on Jan 29, 2018
     | 2,627 views

    A study in the book of Genesis 22: 1 - 24

    Genesis 22: 1 - 24 It’s up to you 22 Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” 2 Then He said, “Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering ...read more

  • 5. Is Baptism Important?

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jan 30, 2020
     | 5,450 views

    We often don't give baptism the importance we should. We look at why baptism is important.

    5 Is Baptism important? Mark 1:1-13 Mark's gospel starts with John the Baptist baptising and then goes straight onto Jesus being baptised. So, it’s natural to talk about baptism! Baptism is a somewhat controversial subject as different churches and denominations hold different views on ...read more

  • Look Out, Look In, Look Up - James 1:17-18 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on May 26, 2021
     | 3,504 views

    What does the Bible tell us to do about our evil desires? This passage describes three attributes of God that, if we understand them, can repair evil desires.

    James 1:13 When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; 14 but each one is tempted when, by his own desire, he is dragged away and enticed. 15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is ...read more

     | 2,698 views

    Discover what was inside Abraham that helped him obey God’s radical test.

    This morning we will have our last message in our mini-series on Abraham. Someday I’ll turn all my messages into books and sell millions of copies. I won’t have to worry about my retirement. I won’t have to rely on the social security system or my dwindling 403b. The truth is peace does not ...read more
