    Individual Responsibility

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 15, 2022

     | 4,321 views

    This message looks at an excuse that the Israelites used for not serving the Lord. It was an excuse, which they hoped would exempt them from their own sins and their own individual responsibility; and the excuse was very shallow.

    To begin our message this evening I wish to share a story. “A farmer once asked his neighbor if he might borrow a rope. ‘Sorry,’ said the neighbor. ‘I’m using my rope to tie up my milk.’ ‘Rope can’t tie up milk,’ said the farmer. ‘I know,’ replied the neighbor, ‘but when a man doesn’t want to ...read more

    The Man Who Was Called Noah

     | 3,216 views

    Imagine that Noah lived in the United States today, and that the Lord spoke to Noah and said: "In one year, I am going to make it rain enough to cover the whole earth with water until all flesh is destroyed. But I want to save you and your family, and I am commanding you to build an ark."

    Then, In a flash of lightning, God delivered the specifications for an ark. In fear and trembling, Noah took the plans and agreed to build the ark. "Remember," said the Lord, "You must complete the ark and bring everything aboard in one year." Exactly one year later, fierce ...read more

    Elijah is the ideal person to study when you study the subject of depression.

    Elijah is the ideal person to study when you study the subject of depression. WHY IS HE THE IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR THIS STUDY? Because of what the Word of God says about him.

     | 3,107 views

    Life is great and wonderful, and very seldom do we hear about anyone who wants to depart from this wonderful life that God has blessed us with.

    Most of us enjoy the blessings of this life so immensely, we want to live as long as possible. Illus: An 80-year-old man went to a doctor for a check-up.

    What Should Really Matter In Life?

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,588 views

    The Bible clearly reveals what was important to the Lord. And the things that were important to Him should also be important to us. But that is not the case for some folks. It is amazing what some people see as important.

    Illus: Clovis Chappell, a minister from a century back, used to tell the story of two paddle boats. They left Memphis about the same time, traveling down the Mississippi River to New Orleans. As they traveled side by side, sailors from one vessel made a few remarks about the snail's pace of the ...read more

    Easter: Jesus’ death and resurrection gave us the gift of salvation and eternal life. But what else did it accomplish? It gave us the promise of renewal and transformation in our everyday lives and over our trials and troubles.

    Easter is upon – the day when we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ – and at Easter time we wish to hear why the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus is significant to us. We want to hear of the hope that we no longer have to be condemned to an eternal spiritual death, ...read more

    The First Christmas Gift

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 18, 2022
     | 2,409 views

    Christmas is a time of giving, and it means that many of us need to think about what kind of gifts we plan to give to those we love.

    Why? We know that while a gift can bring joy to some, it can also bring sadness to others. For example, men have come to realize there are some things you do not buy for your wife on her birthday or at Christmas. Men who have been married for a long period of time have learned some things. • ...read more

    Message - Psalm 44 Sons Of Korah - Two Sides Of Life Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 18, 2022
     | 1,196 views

    The message examines faith and trust in operation. The Psalmist recognised the care of Almighty God in Israel’s affairs, even in the midst of doubt. Our faith should be strong but often it is fickle. The Psalmist went through time of trust and bouts of doubt.

    The Children of Israel had been told by the LORD to go up and possess the land that God had promised to Abraham and his descendants. DID THEY DO IT? We need to look at three things, Let’s look at-

    I. THE REPORTS Before going in and actually possessing the land, God told the Children of Israel to send in 12 spies to search out the land. Once they spied out the land, they were to come back and give a report on what they had found. Look at Numbers 13:1-2 “And the LORD spake unto Moses, ...read more

    The Little Man With A Big Need

     | 2,816 views

    This is a popular text with preachers, and I have heard several intriguing titles for it besides the one I am using today.

    Here are some of them that I recall: • A man who went out on a limb for Jesus • The Salvation of Shorty the Racketeer • The Short Scoundrel that Seriously Sought The Saviour • Seeking the True Vine By Sitting In A Tall tree Any of these titles would be appropriate for this sermon, but I have ...read more

    • A pickup truck came racing by and knocked them off the road into the ditch • The farmer sued for damages: Including loss of work time, claiming he had a broken leg, some facial injuries, and several cracked ribs that kept him bedridden • The defense attorney told the judge, "Your honor, ...read more
