Contributed by Bill Bowdle on Jul 6, 2016

Sermon compares postmodern "Stairway to Nowhere" to Jacob's Stairway to Heaven in Genesis which climbs to God. Postmodernism climbs nowhere toward relativism w/o universal truth. Christianity climbs to God, the author and anchor of TRUTH.

.the Clothes Of Heaven Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 8, 2021

It is no accident that wedding gowns are white. White is a universal symbol of the joy of marriage. No other color can portray the joy of love between two people. No other color can convey the joy of the marriage of the Lamb and His Bride.

A taylor who used an apple as a trade mark was asked why he used that particular symbol. He replied, "If it hadn't been for the apple, where would the clothing business be?" He had a good point. The clothing business did start in the garden of Eden because of sin, and the need to ...read more

Don’t Check Your Brain At The Door!

Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 15, 2019

Christian faith is more rational than atheism because it recognizes the minute information we possess and the insuperable complexity and design of the universe and life forms. We rest our intellect on the intellect of God. What could be wiser?

"the Majestic Holiness Of God."

Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on Jun 19, 2022

The Holiness of God is the essence of his character and being. It is that part that separates him from all other things in the universe because he is not dependent on what is created to sustain him but beloved; all creation depends on him for their existence.

Understanding Faith In Everyday Life SermonCentral

Contributed by SermonCentral on Sep 7, 2023

Everyone possesses some form of faith. We place faith in various aspects of our lives, such as trusting our car to start and take us to our desired destination, or believing in the expertise of our doctors. This mindset is universal.

However, the difference lies in the object of our faith. Our faith is only as good as the object we place it in. In the ...read more
