The End Time Outpouring

Contributed by Charles Jones on Jul 21, 2022

We are living in the last days. Theologians have debated whether or not the Bible speaks of an end-time revival before the return of Jesus.

The End Time Outpouring 1 Timothy 4:1,2 We are living in the last days. Theologians have debated whether or not the Bible speaks of an end-time revival before the return of Jesus.

Has The World Learnt From Sodom And Gomorrah? A Great Evil Is On Us - Jude 1 V 7 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 11, 2022

This message touches on a very difficult area - the consideration of Sodom and Gomorrah and the conflict between Christians and homosexuality. Placed in context, Jude raises the matter of Sodom because he is concentrating on destruction coming on these false teachers.

HAS THE WORLD LEARNT FROM SODOM AND GOMORRAH? A GREAT EVIL IS ON US - Jude 1 v 7 [A]. REVISION: Jude was in the process of writing about the Christian’s common salvation when it became urgent for him to side-track his letter to address the problem of false teachers moving into church ...read more

Be Bold In Prayer

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 22, 2022

How many of us can as children of God approach Him boldly and ask Him for the greater blessings that He has in store for us. Today many are satisfied with leading a mediocre life of just attending church on Sunday, reading a few verses and praying.

We read in Judges 1:14-15, Acsah went to live with Othniel. Othniel told Acsah to ask her father for some land. She went to her father. When she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, "What is wrong?" Acsah answered him, "Give me a blessing. You gave me dry desert land in the Negev. ...read more

Qualified For Special Service Series

Contributed by David Owens on Aug 22, 2022

Introduction: A. Once there was a rather grumpy deacon who was teaching a Bible class full of boys and was endeavoring to impress upon them the importance of living the Christian life. 1. The deacon asked the boys: “Why do people call me a Christian?” 2. After an awkward moment of silence, one ...read more

God-Appointed Down Times

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 18, 2022

Perhaps you have a calling; and yet, you haven’t heard from the Lord in a while and feel directionless. This message explores how the apostle Paul had to undergo both a three-year and a fourteen-year down-time consecutively.

When you are down to nothing, God is up to something! - Barbara Franklin(1) Have you ever been assigned a task from the Lord, or been asked by Him to do something specific?

Grace From Galatians (3 Of 19)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 7, 2022

In chapter one, we find Paul defending his calling and the gospel which he preached. There were those who were saying that he was a self-proclaimed minister preaching a false gospel.

Because of the things that are being said about Paul, he says some things about himself that might seem to be bragging in his defense. Look at Galatians 1:13-24, we read, “For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church ...read more

Acts Of The Apostles 22 Of 39

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022

In chapter 15, we studied the sad separation of Paul and Barnabas.

Before this, in Acts 13:2, we read, "As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, "Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them." God, the Holy Spirit, had called them unto this work, and they were being greatly blessed of the ...read more

The Lords Marvelous Change

Contributed by Charles Jones on Jan 1, 2022

Salvation is a change which we often try to describe but cannot express, the only way we can describe it is that God filled us with joy unspeakable and full of glory.

God Will Finish What He's Started (Joshua 12:1-23, 13:1-22) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 13, 2022

Joshua is old, and he can't do all that he wants to for God (and there's a lot left to do). God reassures him, "I got this. I'll finish the job."

This is a great passage. Let me try, up front, to persuade you about this. It's super helpful for understanding Joshua as a whole. There's hints scattered throughout this section about the Nephilim, if you're into that sort of thing. And the passage points us to God, and his ...read more

Four Marvelous Things We Have In The Lord

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 14, 2022

One thing that we all have in common is that we all want the best this life has to offer.

What we do not have in common is the way we go about pursuing the best this life has to offer. For example, many believe their hope of enjoying the best life has to offer them can be found in: - Sports. Their lives are consumed by the pursuit of sports. - Wealth. Their lives are consumed by ...read more
