Sermons on The Doctrine:

Paul And Universalism Series

Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Nov 2, 2015

Surely if there is a shred of evidence for the doctrine of universalism, it can be found in Paul. Good luck with that...

PAUL and UNIVERSALISM 14. Paul and Isaiah With Paul we come to one who is used by both sides of the Universalism controversy for support. My sense is that the proof inclusivists have found is no proof at all. We begin with Paul's activities in the book of Acts. Acts 13:47-48. It was in ...read more

Paul teaches us how the doctrine of election gives us confidence for the present and the future.

Matthew 15:9. But in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.

Something We Cannot Do

Contributed by Randall Long on Jan 1, 2018

A message that uses the parable of the Good Samaritan to explain the doctrine of Justification by Grace Through Faith.

Our Bible passage today is one of the most celebrated and renowned of our Lord's stories, the parable of the Good Samaritan. Well-known as it is, though, I believe it has a point that's easy to miss. Let's give it a close look, and see if you agree. Our passage begins in Luke 10:25 when a lawyer ...read more

Unfinished notes on the doctrine of the resurrection for a Bible study that I am teaching on Wednesday evenings.

Background and context from my passage: Some of the Corinthian believers had concluded that there was no future resurrection of the dead and this was influencing the faith of the rest of the church. As Paul said earlier about the acceptance of the members of the church who were practicing ...read more

Why "once Saved Always Saved" Is Such A Dangerous False Doctrine

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 27, 2021

Why do we cling to error, even when the truth is so clear? Perhaps it is because we prefer a certain formula that we find comforting.

Hebrews 3:12-14 "Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. 13 But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have come to ...read more

What We Believe...about The Church

Contributed by Larry Brincefield on Apr 2, 2003

I used this sermon in my series of studying the doctrine of the Nazarene Church, however, I don’t focus much on the doctrine part. I decided to focus more on the encouragement of the Christians to be the Church that God desires us to be.

Our Respone To Sin (In The Church) Series

Contributed by Jason Cole on Mar 10, 2007

What does the Bible say we shoudl do when sin comes in the church? How should we handle a public, un-repented sin? Perhaps one of the most neglected doctrines of the church is the doctrine of church discipline!

Words That Cause Stumbling Series

Contributed by Ron Tuit on Sep 11, 2015

The word "doctrines" has almost become a "dirty word" in many Christian circles. Often times when people hear a difficult teaching, or "doctrine", they become disenchanted and at times even divisive. Jesus spoke to this tendency in John 6.

“Words that Cause Stumbling” John 6:59-64 Last week we ended with these verses from John 6:56 "He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. 57 "As the living Father sent Me, and I live ...read more

God Of The Bible

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jul 24, 2024

Thinking correctly about God is of utmost importance because a false idea about God is idolatry. It is much easier to know doctrines than it is to know God - because you don't have to pay a price to know the doctrines.

The first and primary evidence for the existence of God is the existence of the creation. It is only natural that man, being a reasoning creature, should ask questions about the creation and the creator. Obviously, the universe and all that in it, had not been created by man, and yet its design ...read more
