    When you think of Old Testament shadows of Christ, Adam usually is not at the top of the list. This lesson shows why he should be near the top of your list.

    WHO AM I? My time on earth did not begin in a natural way. I had no earthly father. I was made in the image of God. I was innocent and without sin.

    How significant are our teen years? Can events that take place between 13 and 19 impact us for our entire lives? Surely. Take John Mark, for instance.

    Sin entered the world through Adam and Eve. Since then all people are born into this world with a sin nature that we cannot fix on our own. The world tries to ignore the sin nature, tries to "manage" their sin nature and they fail every time. While Christ

    It's easy to get stuck in negativism in this life, but as Christians, our destiny is good beyond our wildest dreams. Proverbs 4:18 captures this with rare insight, telling us to look ahead to our incredible future.

    BRIGHTER & BRIGHTER UNTIL THE FINAL DAY Prov. 4:18 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Driving to work, a man had to swerve to avoid a box that fell out of a truck in front of him.

    Measure Upon Measure – Curse – The Restoration Of God - Part 5 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 28, 2025
     | 235 views

    Sin produces cursing. Through the Fall in the garden of Eden, the serpent was cursed. Then the ground and creation was cursed. That is why life is so difficult in many ways. We trace that theme. Then the Law of Moses cursed the keeper, but Christ became a curse for sinners.

    MEASURE UPON MEASURE – CURSE – THE RESTORATION OF GOD - Part 5 CHAPTER THREE - THE THIRD CONSEQUENCE The third CONSEQUENCE of man’s sin through the fall has resulted in a vast array of problems on this earth. It is bordering on the impossible with our confinement to the present world ...read more

    Behold The King: The Cross Before The Crown

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Mar 26, 2018
     | 6,618 views

    God’s desired will — with omissions and out of sequence — is no longer God’s will. The cross could not be bypassed. Jesus had to wear the crown of thorns before He could wear the crown of the Kingdom.

    Behold The King: The Cross Before the Crown (Various Portions of the Gospels) 1. One blogger writes, “Today, I was waiting at the bus stop and noticed a girl that I played netball with. I ran across the road to meet her and she ran across the car park to meet me. We hugged and looked at each other ...read more
