    In a time when many threats arise to undermine and destroy the concept of the traditional family, the scripture chimes clearly to defend the fact that the family is an institution created by God.

    The Pharisees had added their own interpretations to the law. Tradition was also becoming law. Jesus teaches the original intended meaning of 7 major laws of the time.

    1. Jesus Fulfillment of the Law v.17-20 “Do not think that I came to abolish the Law…but to fulfill…” - The Pharisees thought that Jesus was trying to abolish the law because He freely disregarded the Pharisaic traditions. - Although they thought that Jesus was destroying the law, they were ...read more

     | 8,209 views

    We easily get sidetracked from our walk with God in our traditions or preferences. The key to worship and a walk of faith is to focus on Jesus above ourselves.

    1. Pulpits A preacher described a special interest he had as a guest speaker to various congregations. "Whenever I preach in a church I haven't been to before, I am always anxious to stand behind the pulpit to get a feel for it. I want to stand there and look out at the still empty pews and imagine ...read more

    Contributed by Robert Sickler on Nov 15, 2011
     | 11,652 views

    Probably one of the most messed up Christian concepts is that of heaven, our final destination, which is nothing like the pictures created by our church traditions!

    Heaven – it is not what most people think Illustration The two professors stood nose to nose as they shouted at one another. “The craters on the moon are the result of volcanism,” cried one. “You are an idiot,” screamed the other, “the craters on the moon are ...read more

     | 53,135 views

    Many people celebrate Easter thinking they are celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ, but truly they are being destroyed celebrating a false god. Not your traditional Easter sermon.

    “What are you Celebrating” Resurrection Sunday vs. Easter By District Elder M.L. Maughmer, Jr. Mark 16:1-6 “And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the [mother] of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.

  • What About The Women? Series

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Aug 30, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,140 views

    Too many times, even modern believers allow the male-dominated nature of our traditions to overshadow the fact that God calls female leaders, too.

    The Bible is certainly a male-dominated book that reflects a male-dominated culture. Even if we separate the history in the Bible from World History, we see that human history is full of tales of testosterone-driven leaders using the force of military might, personal strength, and personal charisma ...read more

    Did you know that parts of the traditional Christmas story we tell and sing about in our churches are from a 3rd century novel and not the Scriptures?

    The Original Christmas—Part 1 What We’ve Been Missing Matthew 2; Luke 2 Every year as Christmas draws near, pastors and churches around the world begin preparing sermons, pageants, cantatas, and a variety of other spectacles to retell the oft-told story of that very first Christmas long, long ...read more

  • The Widow's Mite Series

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Apr 30, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 32,905 views

    The story of the widow's mite has been used to show Christians what their attitude toward giving should be. This message challenges that traditional and longstanding teaching.

    Growing up I don’t think I heard a teaching about the widow’s mite that did not take the widow and make her the standard by which all of us are to give when it comes to our giving. “This poor widow woman came to the altar and gave her last mite. She did that for the Lord! What an example she is to ...read more

    Let’s move beyond the surface of festive traditions and embrace the deeper meaning of the season. Like the shepherds, let’s seek and encounter the living Christ.

    Introduction Christmas is a season of joy, light, and celebration, but it’s also a time of profound reflection.

    ANy one brought up in the Jewish tradition knows its natural to compare the Spirt with the wind. Jesus used a ready illistration the night he spoke to Nicodemus.

    John 3:8 Just as you can hear the wind but can’t tell where it comes from or where it is going, so you can’t explain how people are born of the Spirit.” For anyone brought up in the Jeswish tradition it is natural to compare the Spirit with the wind. Ruach can mean 1) Wind: The desert wind ...read more
