    Emphasize the importance of obeying God's authority, respecting earthly laws, and avoiding the temptation to test God.

    Good morning, family. Today, we're gonna take a deep dive into a topic that touches every aspect of our lives - obeying God's authority, respecting the law, and steering clear of the temptation to test God. In the words of St. Augustine of Hippo, "Right is right even if no one is doing it; wrong is ...read more

    THE BATTLE WITHIN. Galatians 5:16-24. We must “walk in the (Holy) Spirit”: to which imperative is added a promise, “and ye shall not fulfil the lusts of the flesh” (GALATIANS 5:16).

  • Jesus Addresses The Topic Of Marriage, Divorce, And Remarriage Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Aug 14, 2023
     | 637 views

    Some Pharisees came and tested him by asking, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?”

    Have you heard the dreaded stat that 50% of marriages today end in divorce? Yeah, that isn’t actually true. It was a myth. It came from a projection that if the divorce rate continued to raise by 2% each year, that it could reach that level. But it never actually did. It’s probably closer to 30 to ...read more

  • "Speak, For Thy Servant Heareth” ( 2 Of 2)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 22, 2022
     | 1,554 views

    There is a television program on one of the networks called, “The Practice”. The program is about lawyers practicing law.

    One of the stars on the program is Sharon Stone, who is a lawyer. But she is different from all the other lawyers in the firm in which she works because she occasionally talks about God talking to her. When she does this, everyone looks at her as if she is some kind of a nut that should be ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 1, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,427 views

    Sin uses the law against us; but our victory lies not in ourselves but in the risen Lord Jesus.

    THE PROBLEM OF INDWELLING SIN. Romans 7:15-25a. In the first half of Romans 7:14, Paul speaks in the second person plural: ‘For WE know that the law is spiritual.’ Then, from the second half of the verse, Paul changes to the first person singular, ‘I’ – ‘but I am carnal, sold under (or a ...read more

  • When Catastrophe Happens, What Next?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 29, 2022
     | 780 views

    No external law can fix a problem that comes from deep within a twisted mind and heart.

    Ascension 2022 I polished up my Ascension Day homily last Sunday. Then I tore it up on Tuesday afternoon. Senseless, mindless murder down the road in Uvalde, a place many of us have visited or lived. When catastrophe happens anywhere in the world, don’t we all grieve, and ask “Lord, WHY?” “What ...read more

  • Looking For A Good Room

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,637 views

    Wealth holds us back from inheriting eternal life: but wealth is anything earthyl that we hold onto as valuable in opposition to things heavenly. We must melt down these idols and consecrate the gold to the temple.

    “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” (Mk. 17:17). There are two alternates to eternal life: eternal death and temporal life. Neither is appealing. Eternal life is worth struggling for. The rich young man asked the Lord what must he do. He understood that attainment of heaven was ...read more

  • Ignorance Is Killing Us!

    Contributed by Kelly Durant on May 2, 2015
     | 15,090 views

    Ignorance takes on many forms concerning the basic functioning of relationships and society, but most of all ignorance of the Word of God is causing our society to implode! Ignorance is wastefully degrading our organized systems and causing undue damage!

    Ignorance Is Killing Us! By Kelly Durant 5-3-15 Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy ...read more

  • Who Will Deliver Me! Series

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Apr 28, 2005
    based on 14 ratings
     | 5,921 views

    The law of God is perfect, but we are not. Trying to live up to God’s standards with our own steam is an impossible task. Before power comes freedom! ...Free from sin, free from death, even free from the law!

    If I were to take a long piece of super-duper duct tape and stick it firmly to your hairy arm, how would you prefer to have it removed if you only had these two choices: Slowly, pulling out one hair at a time, or suddenly, ripping it off instantly? Most of us would prefer a quick rip. Well, when ...read more

  • Is There A Conflict Between Faith And Science? Series

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Apr 28, 2002
    based on 141 ratings
     | 11,263 views

    Those seeking truth should consider: 1. Christian faith birthed science. 2. Miracles are not things done against natural law, but according to natural law. 3. To close the door to the possibility of the existence of God goes against the very fabric

    How do you explain miracles to a scientist? How do you explain science to a Christian? Can it be done, and is there a conflict between the two? How do we use objective critical reasoning and still believe in things like the parting of the Red Sea, a virgin giving birth to a child, shriveled ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,890 views

    Acts 23 teaches us that “Flying high” for the Lord means we understand that our testimony – our witness - does impact the direction of nations and that the natural law of sowing (planting) and reaping (harvesting) is also a spiritual law. Our personal wit

    Fly High – Acts part 21 Opening Illustration: On the lighter side of life Thesis: Acts 23 teaches us that “Flying high” for the Lord means we understand that our testimony – our witness - does impact the direction of nations and that the natural law of sowing (planting) and reaping (harvesting) ...read more

  • Does Time Change The Intent Of God's Will?

    Contributed by Bryan Beverly on Nov 3, 2014
     | 5,552 views

    This message is designed to help us to consider: (1) whether ‘the spirit of the law’ endures beyond ‘the letter of the law’ and (2) whether God’s silence is a synonym of His absence or His affirmation.

    The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 2Speak to the people of Israel and say to them: I am the Lord your God. 3You shall not do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you lived, and you shall not do as they do in the land of Canaan, to which I am bringing you. You shall not follow their statutes. 4My ...read more

  • The Echelon Principle

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Feb 26, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,518 views

    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

  • Breaking The Mold

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Sep 5, 2011
     | 10,559 views

    Today’s teaching relates to how we function in relationship to God; what He intended versus the current reality. Some people have a healthy relationship toward God while other people are very dysfunctional.

    Breaking the Mold Scripture / Text: Exodus 32:1-29 (NLT) Browsing the web, I came across the top three signs of a dysfunctional family: • Family discussions usually begin with, "Put the gun down." • Bikers next door always complain about the noise • Your mom threatens, “Eat your brussel sprouts, ...read more
