    I believe that the Christian world is in the midst of a very dangerous season. Research is showing a catacylismic shift away from faith in Christ. Jesus said most men's love will grow cold. A message to help in this season

    Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (4 Of 16)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022
     | 1,663 views

    In 1 John, chapter one, John had the audacity to tell some of those who claimed to be saved that they were liars.

    Evidently John never took a course in “HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE”. If he had taken it, he would have had a hard time passing the course. We know this because we see he called those people liars five times. He used “liar(s)” in: • 1 John 1:10. • 1 John 2:4. • 1 John 2:22. • 1 John ...read more

     | 1,535 views

    In a previous sermon we dealt with what John had to say about how we can KNOW that WE KNOW THE LORD.

    We discovered that anyone can say that they know the Lord...anyone! All one has to say is, “I know the Lord.” John used the word, “saith,” numerous times. He referred to it in: • 1 John 2:4. He said, “HE THAT SAITH, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not ...read more

    The Trap Of Another Gospel

    Contributed by Eric Wright on Jul 3, 2022
     | 2,138 views

    To surrender to the Judaizers was to negate the glory of the cross of Christ and to make the death of Christ on Calvary of no effect

    The Trap of another gospel Galatians 1:6-10 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, ...read more

    It’s easy to trust God when the sea is parting, when the walls of Jericho are falling, when His voice is clearly coming through to our spirit. But what about those days when God is silent? Discovering both sides of Faith!

    There is a faith receives what it believes, and a faith that believes beyond what it receives. Text: Hebrews 11:13-16 "These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers ...read more

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Twenty-Two. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that Abraham is tested to make a sacrifice of Isaac. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 22 Abraham, being commanded to offer up his son Isaac, when stretching forth his hand to slay him, is prevented by the angel of the ...read more

The only expectation that the disciples have is to seek their Shepherd for assurance. We might even confront comparable aggression. Like ...read more

    We look at another reaction to Jesus’ claims from the Jewish crowds. The Jewish crowds had four false beliefs about Jesus. These beliefs are still prevalent in today’s society.

    Last time we looked at how to overcome any mocking or unbelief when it comes to us being Christians. We looked specifically at the response of Jesus’ half-brothers. Tonight we look at another reaction to Jesus’ claims from the Jewish crowds. The Jewish crowds had four false beliefs about Jesus. ...read more
