"i Will Proclaim The Truth" Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 24, 2020

The Bible says that both people and society will grow more wicked as the time approaches for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ. The preacher is to face this with the soul-convicting, life transforming power of the Word and Spirit, no matter the cost.

Anyone who makes the ridiculous statement that the Bible is merely a human book, and nothing more than a collection of inspiring stories has let others do their thinking for them, mimicking someone else's skepticism, or have claimed to have read it to end up condemning what it says about the ...read more

New Wine, New Wineskin Series

Contributed by Apostle Dr. Ruben L. Broadnax Jr. on Oct 23, 2024

Are we ready for a fresh move of God, or are we clinging to old ways, old methods, that can't handle the new thing God wants to do?

Have you ever walked into a church and felt that, while things seemed busy and well-organized, something was missing? It’s like the Spirit of God is present, but there’s a sense that He’s being held back. It’s almost as if the structure, the way things are set up, isn’t allowing the fullness of His ...read more

As the Church we should always strive to be a strong imitation of God.

In Senior High you really imitate each other. What becomes trendy for one eventually becomes trendy for everyone else? When I was in H.S. the thing to do was to role up your jeans at the bottom, there was even a certain fold you had to follow, and everybody did it. Everybody’s hair was feathered in ...read more

"the Priority Of Preaching" Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 31, 2020

The preaching of the Word of God does not go out or return void, despite what we might witness or think. The Sacred Word continues to convict the heart and give new life to all who are dead in iniquity.

Fellow under-shepherd, I've been there. I know the frustration you feel when it seems that you preached your heart out this past Sunday. You fed your flock the food of the Word and gave the message God placed upon you. I know what it means to study for long hours, to pray, to compose the ...read more

Tear It Out! Series

Contributed by Gary Stebbins on Sep 30, 2008

"Jesus presents a clear description of what it is followers are to be like internally and how they are to live outwardly in the Sermon on the Mount."

Sermon on the Mount- Pt 6 Tear It Out! In the SOTM it seems that Jesus has boiled down His teachings to that which is of prime importance. The SOTM makes GOOD seem really GOOD. It inspires to believe in- possibility of a better world. It also reminds us of our lack of commitment to the principles ...read more

The Blessing Of A Hungry Heart Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Oct 16, 2007

The only fulfilment in life is to hunger and thirst for God and the things of God. Nothing else in this world can bring true happiness and lasting blessings.

So far we’ve come to see that a blessed Christian is someone who is: “Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” • Blessed are ...read more
