    Why Do They Hate Us So?

    Contributed by Melvin Newland on Apr 30, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,949 views

    I must confess that there is something else that I don’t understand – why there seems to be such hatred in this world against anything that is considered to be Christian.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK A. There is a beautiful old hymn that begins with these words: “Love sent my Savior to die in my stead. Why should He love me so?" And ends by asking, "Why should my Savior to Calvary go? Why should He love me so?” How would you ...read more

    How Good Friday Is Good For Us

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 4, 2015
     | 5,537 views

    Jesus sees all our sins, but because he had made the ultimate sacrifice with his blood, we can have forgiveness. Christ is the sin eater who has taken care of all our sins, and that is another reason why Good Friday is good for us.

    What is so good about Good Friday? That is the question many of us probably ask when Good Friday comes around every year. After all, what is good about a day that commemorates Jesus' horrible torture and execution on a Roman cross? Good Friday is a dark day in some respects because it ...read more

    Marijuana Use: Willingly Walking Into Bondage

    Contributed by Terry Frazier on Feb 1, 2014
     | 8,161 views

    What's really behind the movement in America to legalize marijuana? Why do we want to sanction people being put into bondage to a substance and in a broader sense sin? This is very troubling as Christians seem to be having a hard time standing against sin

    A couple of weeks ago I preached a message on the Christian views on legalizing marijuana in America. If you’ll recall, I wasn’t very supportive of the idea. The notion that we can legalize sin and somehow make state sanctioning of sin a good thing despite the fact that legalizing ...read more

    Consider the will of God in every matter. Consider the consequences of every choice.

    This is not a good title; I use it to jog our mind to think. Is this our orientation to life? • We know God cares and therefore we live through life seeking God to provide what we want. He is key to a successful and comfortable life. • The needs are real, and many, no doubt about ...read more

    God's Word helps us walk the path of righteousness.

    Last time, we focused on the first phrase of verse 16, “All Scripture is God-breathed,” as we thought about how the Bible is inspired.

    God is much more interested in our life style then in ceremonies and sacrifaces that we may perform. Its about how we relate to God and one another.

    Recently, I had a story about a certain man who was very poor. He really struggled to make ends meet in life. Putting food on the table and taking his children to school was a problem. It so happened that this man becomes sick for a long time and eventually he died. What actually made his health ...read more
