Inescapable Love

Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Dec 27, 2000

Lessons from the life of Hosea. God’s love is beyond reason, inescapable and tough.

As I thought about the messed-up life of Hosea this week, I logged onto the Jerry Springer web site to check out the kind of topics he had been wallowing in lately. Some of the program titles read like this one on August 28: “Surprise, I’m Cheating.” The caption describes the show this way: ...read more

Contributed by Joseph Sykes on Apr 14, 2001

The cause of the Word of God being shut up in your bones is of man and not God.

When The Preacher Don’t Want To Be Bothered Jeremiah 20:7 O LORD, thou hast deceived me, and I was deceived: thou art stronger than I, and hast prevailed: I am in derision daily, every one mocketh me. 8 For since I spake, I cried out, I cried violence and spoil; because the word of the LORD was ...read more

The Christian And God's Word

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jun 15, 2001

When God’s people reject God’s word for long enough, God removes that word from them.

What is the one thing that you would miss most if it were taken away from you? What would you most miss if you woke up tomorrow and found you no longer had it? Would it be your family? Your children? Your dog or your cat? Your photo albums? Your health perhaps? I want you to think about that ...read more

Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Dec 8, 2001

A study of the fulfillment of Ezekiel 38-39 by the invasion of Israel by Antiochus IV and his multinational army.

EZEKIEL 38-39 There is a tendency for contemporary Bible students to think that prophecies found in the Old Testament pertain to events to be fulfilled in our future. In reality, such prophecies were fulfilled by the time of the coming of Christ and the establishment of the Church/Kingdom in the ...read more

Presenting Our Mouths: Swallowing, Spitting, Speaking Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 23, 2001

In order to be effective witnesses, we must first be knowledgeable -- swallowing God’s word; must then be cleansed spiritually -- spitting out whatever is no longer appropriate; and then speak with confidence and passion. Mini-messages with props.

Our mouths get us into trouble. One of you said that to me the other day. You had opened your mouth to voice an opinion about something that should be done in the community where you live, and before you knew it, you were chairing the committee to get it done. Nobody had even noticed you were in ...read more

Behold What Manner Of Love Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Nov 2, 2005

God’s love is a powerful love. It’s a love that reaches out to us even while we’re being unfaithful. It’s a love that willingly pays the cost to win us back. But in the end it’s a love that must be taken up by those to whom it’s offered.

I’ve known a number of men over the years whose wives have left them. I remember one man who came home from work one day to discover his wife had had the removalists in and they’d taken everything apart from his personal belongings. I remember one man whose wife left him and his children for ...read more

Hosea's Love - Betrayal And Judgement Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Nov 2, 2005

Hosea gives a picture not only of the way God hurts when his people are unfaithful, but about the real power of his love. Here is a love that expects a response of single-minded faithfulness, and that won’t rest until it gets it.

If you’re familiar with the story of Les Miserables, then you’ll know that the story begins with Jean Valjean, a convict on parole, coming to a town where the only person who’ll give him a room and a meal is the local bishop, Bp Myriel. The bishop welcomes him into his house, feeds him and gives ...read more

The Temple Of The Lord

Contributed by J. Yeargin on Nov 21, 2005

Time and again God had warned his people not to worship anything or anyone else but Him, but they continued to do whatever they wanted to do. They were going to the Temple supposedly for the purpose of worshipping the Lord on the Sabbath Day, but were di

Recently, I have been doing an in depth study of some of the major prophets of the Bible. Great men such as Isaiah, Ezekiel, and Jeremiah have always been favorites of mine (and, I know the same is for some of you). The words of these prophets can bring to us things that we may have never ...read more

Behold, I Though

Contributed by Larry Jacobs on Jun 29, 2006

When you read this you instantly wonder. Why is there a story about a Syrian Captain wedged in this continuing story of Israel’s mishaps. The reason is that there is a wonderful lesson here.

BEHOLD, I THOUGH II KINGS 5:1-14 When you read this you instantly wonder. Why is there a story about a Syrian Captain wedged in this continuing story of Israel’s mishaps. God had delivered Israel from Egypt and brought them into the land that flowed with mike and honey. He had ...read more

Return Before Jesus Returns

Contributed by Melvin Shelton on Jul 12, 2006
