"how Long O Lord?"

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 25, 2022

Watching television can be entertaining, but at the same time it can be very disconcerting to see what they do on a television program.

Illus: For example, they will have John Wayne on his horse, ride into a town that is filled with all kinds of major problems, and in a couple of hours he will clean that town up and make it a safe and decent place to live. The reason it is upsetting to watch such movies is because we find ...read more

The Echelon Principle

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 26, 2022

If the body of Christ is to function properly, we can’t just have a few members doing all the ministry by themselves, while the rest of the people watch the show. Jethro told Moses he needed to appoint others to help him.

Our message for this evening is entitled “The Echelon Principle.” I am not going to tell you what an echelon is just yet; however, some of you might already know. I will tell you that it has something to do with playing on the same team, and striving together toward a common goal and purpose. ...read more

The Drawing

Contributed by Sean Dees on Mar 1, 2022

We need to be drawing near to God not buttering up to God just to "Get Something".

From this passage we read that God desires a relationship an intimate relationship with His creations. I believe that we forget that we were created for the Lord and that He desires to have fellowship with us. We are the apple of God’s eye, His one true love. My heart has been so heavy toward my ...read more

"o Lord, Revive Thy Work"

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 2, 2022

All over this great country of ours, CHURCHES have revival services each year. Many of these churches schedule them in the FALL and in the SPRING of the year.

While it is good that churches schedule these services frequently, it is equally good that they recognize that before a church can experience a HOLY GHOST REVIVAL MEETING, they must know WHAT A REAL HOLY GHOST REVIVAL IS. A Holy Ghost Revival consist of at least three things, such as: 1. It is a ...read more

Honor From God Himself Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Mar 5, 2022

There are times when we too may have to face the malice of people, who turn against us and speak ill of us. Don’t lose heart, because the Lord who watches is aware of everything and He is a God of justice.

Psalm 91:15, “He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him.” (AFV) In continuation with this series of Psalm 91, let us study the life of another man whom God honored, though it seemed that everything was against him.

God Uses The Unexpected

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022

Many times those who are underestimated and considered failures go on to accomplish great things in society. The same principle is true in the kingdom. The Lord oftentimes uses people who are rejected to bring glory to His name.

Once we are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, and as we come to know the Lord by spending time with Him, we will reach a point in our life where our love will overflow in a desire for service. It’s at this place that many believers come to a screeching halt. They look at themselves ...read more

Love Without Limits (January 30, 2022)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 11, 2022

Now if love is supposed to be the greatest, and it is, then why did Jesus’s preaching about love in Luke 4:21 -30 provoke those in the congregation so badly? It provoked them so badly, that they wanted to throw Him off a cliff!

LOVE WITHOUT LIMITS Text: I Corinthians 13:1- 13 1 Corinthians 13:1-13  If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.  (2)  And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I ...read more

Worship Jesus Only

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 13, 2022

When the opinion of men supersedes the opinion of God, we are focusing too much on people; and there are believers who unknowingly worship people. But the only one whom we should be seeking to please and worship is Jesus.

John once shared the account of some people who had denied Christ for fear of what the Pharisees would think. In John 12:42-43, He said, “Many believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue; for they loved the praise of men more ...read more

Is Your Best Offense Really A Good Defense?

Contributed by Darian Catron on Mar 17, 2022

Why are so many so offended by everything today, and are we exempt from this problem? What is the best response (the Christlike one) when things are offensive to us?

INTRODUCTION: Illustration- There’s an old saying – “The best defense is a good offense.” It’s been used in sports, in business, and in war. It’s also known as the strategic offensive principle of war. The theory is that being proactive with a strong offensive action will make your opponent so ...read more

Remaining Confident When We Fail

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 22, 2022

We all fail at times. When that happens, how do we pull ourselves out of the dugout and get our heads back into the game of life?

There was an important business executive who boarded the New Orleans to Washington train. He had a very important business meeting and he needed to be awakened in order to get off the train in Atlanta about five o'clock in the morning. Since he was a heavy sleeper, he found a porter and told ...read more

Why Christians Do Not Continue In Sin (1of 3)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

In chapter 5:12-21, we discovered that sin entered the world through Adam, who was the head of the human race.

His one sin plunged the whole human race into sin, because all mankind was in his loins when he sinned. The Bible tells us that mankind is born into sin, but even if It did not state this, it would not be hard to prove. Illus: All you have to do is watch a newborn baby. You will see immediately: ...read more

Teachings Of Titus #7

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

We all understand why Paul wrote to Titus and dealt with relationships in the church.

This has always been a problem in the church. But when we get to the third chapter of Titus, Paul starts to talk to him about salvation, and this becomes a little confusing. WHY DID PAUL TALK TO TITUS ABOUT SALVATION? Why? Paul wanted to make sure that Titus preached sound doctrine concerning ...read more
