I Am The Light Of The World Series

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jul 11, 2021

When we believe in Christ, the Light of the World, He delivers us from the darkness. The darkness is still there, and it’s still deadly, but it cannot overcome the light of the Lord.

Say you’re out in the bush somewhere at nighttime. All around it’s very dark, just the murkiness of midnight, and you’re a bit scared.

Fellowship: The Power Of Friendship Series

A Well Without Water

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 14, 2022

The word of truth is the water of life. In which, it refreshes the souls that receive it. But those who deceive (false prophets/teachers) speak error because there is no truth in them.

Eternal Life Comes From Feeding On The Cross

Contributed by Mike Cleveland on Aug 25, 2008

Jesus made eternal life dependent upon what we eat!

Let’s open our Bibles to John chapter 6. One time there was a rich young man that came to Jesus and asked “What good thing must I do to get eternal life?” In other words, “what must I do to live forever?” And I hope you agree that this is the most important question we could ever ask, too. I had ...read more

Samson may not have known it, but this first encounter, as recorded in Scripture, would lead to a lifetime of problems, heartache, and a lot more. He was about to enter trouble in Timnath.

The Wedding At Cana Series

Contributed by Sonny Thomas, Sr. on Jan 10, 2009

Understanding the Scriptures, one can see the wealth of evidence which would render strong drink and intoxicating beverages as inappropriate for use by believers – use for drunkenness or simple social consumption.

In this passage we can find that Mary evidently was a friend or even a relative of those in the wedding party and took a principle part in the preparation of the wedding feast. Jesus and the disciples were invited. Whether the family was poor and had not enough refreshments, or whether there was ...read more
