Whose Image?

Contributed by William Mouser on Oct 25, 2005

Giving to God what is His requires we recognize what bears His image and, thus, a duty toward Him.

Whose Image? Matt 22:15-22 The gospel for today has a saying of Jesus that is probably better known than anything else he ever said, with the possible exception of his words to Nicodemus about being born again. The odd thing about Jesus’ words in today’s gospel is this: were not answering the ...read more

24.18 What Are You Building? Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Oct 29, 2007

Jesus finishes the Sermon on the Mount by leaving his listeners with a responsibility for what they had heard.

That pretty well tied up the morning.

Introduction I profess that I DO NOT like to watch the TV show, “Survivor”. I admit the concept, though with I’m sure some exaggerations, is pretty cool! It seems as 16 people are dumped out in the middle of nowhere with no food or water and have to figure out a way to survive on their own. But ...read more

The Fruitful Believer Series

Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Jan 14, 2022

Jesus provides us an image of what the fruitful believer looks like. Jesus likens Himself to a vine, and the Father is the one for cares for the vine.

The Bible And Astronomy Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 9, 2021

Psa. 138:6 reminds us, "Though the Lord be high, He has respect unto the lowly." Astronomy keeps us humble, but also helps us maintain a spirit of adoration for the Creator of all the wonders it discovers.

When Jesus ascended to the right hand of the Father He took a throne that made Him sovereign, not just over the earth, but over the entire universe. Before He ascended He said, "All power in heaven and on earth is given unto me." Paul tells us that He was exalted above all ...read more

The Old Or The New Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 27, 2021

All of history is a battle between the liberal and the conservative. One of the most fascinating paradoxes of Scripture is that Jesus was both a liberal and a conservative.

How Can I Give You Up, O My Son? There Is No Other Way (Easter Message) Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 23, 2022

This message looks at the compassion and judgement of God at the cross. How could the Father surrender up the Son to earth's rejection, and then lay our sins upon Him? We will look at that in this Easter message.
