    Contributed by Paul Davidson on Jun 14, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,091 views

    Have you truly sacrificed the totality of your own life on God’s altar, committing to Him everything you have and everything you are... or are you giving Him your crumbs, your leftovers, hoping that it pleases Him?

    Please turn in your Bibles to the book of Malachi, which is the last book in the Old Testament. If you find Matthew and then go back a few pages, you’ll be in Malachi. After God reveals His Word through the prophet Malachi, He is then silent for roughly 400 years until the events described in the ...read more

    Here, in the New Jerusalem, we have something totally unique: a sinless, pure, community of righteousness, a holy city. Problems arise when believers expect this kind of community now, or fail to realize that it only comes down out of heaven. T

    based on 5 ratings
     | 15,582 views

    The unbelievable account of how a nation which was totally committed to God – in one generation – walked away from God and became an idolatrous nation.There’s an eerie parallel to America; we must contend for revival!

    ONE GENERATION FROM EXTINCTION Judges 2:6-15 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: 1. Someone has said, “Children seldom misquote you. In fact, they usually repeat word for word what you shouldn't have said.” 2. You spend the first two years of their life teaching them to walk and talk. Then you ...read more

    Jesus And Pilate

    based on 101 ratings
     | 11,605 views

    An examination of the meeting of Jesus and Pontius Pilate and the lessons that can be gained from their encounter, concerning the nature of civil authority and our relationship to it.

    The Jewish authorities wanted Jesus dead but were unwilling to kill Him themselves because they did not wish to lose favor with the common people who believed in Jesus. They wanted Rome to do it. They wanted Rome to take the blame. The evil Jewish authorities played Pontius Pilate like a fiddle to ...read more

    The Ultimate Insult Series

    based on 90 ratings
     | 14,260 views

    People refuse to accept God’s authority. We don’t want to be tenants in God’s Vineyard. We want to be the owners.

    "Stick and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me!" You’ve no doubt heard that little rhyme, and you’ve probably even used it at times. When I was growing up it was the standard playground retort to an insult. But of course we all know that those words were simply a bluff. They had ...read more

    The authority of Jesus flashes in our hearts and minds and brings light and deliverance from demonic darkness. But beware! Armor is essential to spiritual survival!

    To run the race of faith you need to fix your eyes on Jesus and remember that He is our AUTHOR, our PERFECTOR and our ENCOURAGER.

    FIX YOUR EYES Early on the morning of Feb. 17, 1994 James Rich got into his new twin engine Piper Seneca airplane at an airport near Louisville, KY.

    Human Resource And Diversity Issues In The Early Church

    Contributed by Kenneth Anthony on May 6, 2006
    based on 10 ratings
     | 4,272 views

    Apostolic church faced human resource issues. Apostles needed to delegate authority so could concentrate on primary calling to pray and preach.

    Introduction Running a church sometimes just takes common sense. Real problems arise in the Church just like any other institution, however, through prayer, cooperation within the Body of Christ, and some thought even the most complex problems can be solved. Today’s reading from Acts 6:1-7 deals ...read more

    The Truth Of The Word

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,258 views

    God intended for His Word to be spoken with authority. It must not be taken lightly. It must be approached as if it contained all the power of the universe, which it does.

    I believe that many people are, without realizing it, shaping their relationship with God based on excuses. Lack of time is our most popular excuse. Lack of comprehension is a close second. People say to me, “Time is a problem, for sure, but my real problem with the Bible is that I just ...read more
