    If anyone had ever had a reason to be afraid and discouraged it would have been Paul as we find him here in a Roman jail writing to one of his closest friends. How can we have a positive outlook when we are living in a negative situation?

    Our Victory is Certain II Timothy 4:16-18 Purpose: To describe the commitment we should have to serving Christ. Aim: I want the listener to be inspired to stand up for Christ every day without wavering. INTRODUCTION: If anyone had ever had a reason to be afraid and discouraged it would have ...read more

    Everything that Superman aspires to be in imaginary tales, Jesus is in reality—and so much more. The story of Superman is really a modern day parable for the story of Jesus Christ. This is the first in a series of youth lessons title: Jesus Is My Superher

    The Smallville of Nazareth Between the child rocketed from the doomed planet Krypton and the symbol of truth and justice Superman is destined to become, lies a vitally important aspect of Superman mythology—Smallville.

    Lesson 26. A Rebuke Of The Condition (James 4:13-14) Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 3, 2021
     | 1,858 views

    This section is sometimes taken to refer to unbelieving Jews, but nothing is appliable to professing Christians. The Jews bent on trade are warned not to forget God, for they are of such a nature that they do not even know what will happen tomorrow.

    Text. James 4:13-14 (NIV) 13Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.” 14Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then ...read more

    In the decision to go to the cross, Jesus made the decision to identify with humanity in the final and greatest way.

    We are often like the character Humpty Dumpty. Peter was too.

    Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall, all the King’s horses and all the King’s men could not put Humpty Dumpty together again! There is more than a nursery rhyme there. It is a parable of life, its injuries and the failure of human effort alone. This is an EGGsample of ...read more

    You know, statistics will show that many people don’t believe in Satan. Or in the idea of a devil. They think he is a made up character. A fictional character in books and movies. That’s the second thing that Satan wants us to believe. That he’s not real.

    Be Delivered from Deception Alright. We begin with our verse this morning in John 1:4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. Let us pray…. Lord JESUS, you are the light of the world, shine forth your ...read more

    The true condition of the Corinthian believers was that they were still engrossed with human, earthly wisdom. We can spend a lifetime accumulating human knowledge and still not learn how to have a personal relationship with God.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: Knowledge is exploding at such a rate—more than 2000 pages a minute—that even Einstein couldn’t keep up. In fact, if you read 24 hours a day, from age 21 to 70, and retained all you read, you would be one and a half million years behind when you finished. How can it be, ...read more

    Love is a word that is often used but seldom understood in its truest depth. Human love can be flawed, conditional, and inconsistent. But the love of God is beyond human comprehension—it is unconditional, sacrificial, and unchanging.
