    Ask And Seek The Right Thing! Knock At The Right Door! Series

    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,918 views

    I've heard the exhortations to Ask, Seek and Knock in isolation from the Golden Rule. They are irrevocably connected. One concept leads to the other. Jesus points to the way God treats us in order to show us how treat each other.

    Matthew 7:7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. The standard message on this passage is, we need to ask, and when we ask God ...read more

     | 178 views

    We must heed the warning of the Lord; it is the same warning Isaiah preaches here! But, why? Because He is returning to judge the Earth - not to scare us, but to prepare us! We must know that He is not a God of fear, but of love because He gives us sufficient warning of what is ahead!

    Isaiah, Part 11 Why do the rescued praise the Lord? Isaiah 26:7-21 (Wed: 27:1-13) Introduction - Welcome to Seasons!

    The Way Of The Lord Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Apr 7, 2025
     | 188 views

    The Way of the LORD is a path that requires trust, obedience, and a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Through the Scriptures, believers are encouraged to walk in this way, trusting in God's guidance and living in accordance with His will.

    God has an amazing life of adventure and purpose waiting for us all. But very few people find it. A lot of people think “I tried the God thing, but it didn't work.” The problem is that the promises of God don't happen without the practices of Jesus. AND Most people aren't taught what ...read more

    This is Part 13 in a 14-part series of studies I call “The Christian Character” from what is familiarly known as the “Sermon on the Mount.” In this part, we look at Jesus' teaching about judging, and not giving what is holy to dogs and pigs.

    Learn from the experience of Joseph what it means to trust God and obey Him.

    There is one scene that is often seen during Christmas – the scene of the manger, with two adults standing by and a baby lying in the manger.

     | 12,940 views

    In his parable of the sower and the seed, Jesus shows us various kinds of spiritual heart trouble. From the story, we learn to share our faith indiscriminately, trust God to bring the growth, and cooperate with God in the growth he wants to bring in us.

    Matthew 13:3-9, 18-23 Heart Trouble Have you ever wondered why some seem to embrace God’s good news of salvation and others don’t? Have you ever wondered why God sends people to hell? Or maybe they send themselves there, as they reject the God who desires that all people be saved. Jesus used a ...read more
