     | 7,031 views

When they sleep, their snoring is disruptive. When they turn over, houses may be crushed under their weight. In the Bible, Uzziah became a ...read more

    A Jealous God Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Mar 1, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 20,582 views

    God is “jealous” in the sense that He expects complete, exclusive devotion; not merely a partial, lukewarm, half-hearted religious observance. Worship belongs to God. He is worthy of worship and has a right to be “jealous” of it.

    The Bible clearly teaches that God is a jealous God. That doesn’t sit well with us; the very notion of the jealousy of God sounds offensive. We think of jealousy as an entirely negative quality--a sin. Yet God declares that He is jealous. God restricts allegiance to Himself alone: ...read more

    And Justice Will Roar

    Contributed by Douglas Phillips on Aug 28, 2001
    based on 46 ratings
     | 9,689 views

    Often times we ask the question "Why to bad things happen to good People?" Is there any justice in the world? This passage tells us that God will put up with injustice only so long, and then will roar in perfect judgment.

    Pastor are not perfect, yet they are often expected to walk a thin line between love and conviction, heart and mind, between right and wrong. This places pastor firmly between the title of today’s message. Pastoring is then either a plight or a passion.
