  • Proper Usage Of The Church Treasury

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 5, 2002
    based on 38 ratings
     | 8,604 views

    This is an examination of how the early Church used the monetary funds contributed by its members. The practice of the early Church, under the directions of the Apostles, gives us a pattern to follow today.

    Proper Use of the Church Treasury It is proper and perfectly Scriptural for Christians in a community to put money in a common fund. There has never been a great deal of disagreement among brethren over this matter. Christians generally agree that it is right to contribute to a general fund to ...read more

  • The Mission Of The Lord's Church

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 5, 2002
    based on 54 ratings
     | 8,636 views

    This is a study of the Ministries of the Church of Christ in this world. Each congregation needs to examine its work to ensure that it is fulfilling God’s glorious purpose.

    In Matthew 16:18, Jesus emphatically stated that He would build His "Church and the gates of Hades would not overpower it." Indeed, following His resurrection and ascension, we find His establishing the Church on Pentecost in ACTS 2. Throughout the remainder of the Book of ACTS, we see it "having ...read more

  • The Obedience Of Faith

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 5, 2002
    based on 34 ratings
     | 5,007 views

    Can mere belief in God and the truths of His Word win the Lord’s approval and blessings? To the contrary, the Scriptures plainly teach that only a faith that leads to obedience to God wins approval and reward.

    When one reads the Letter to the Romans and then reads the Letter of James, there may appear to be a contradiction. Romans 4:1-6 clearly teaches that we are justified by faith apart from works. However, James 2:24 says that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone. Martin Luther saw ...read more

  • Is The Doctrine Of "Original Sin" Really Scriptural?

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 5, 2002
    based on 76 ratings
     | 5,833 views

    Many today accept the doctrine of "Original Sin" or "Total Hereditary Depravity" as basic truth; yet, it is not supported by the Bible nor was it taught in the early Church.

    The doctrine of "Original Sin" basically states that Adam’s guilt has been passed down to each member of the human race. Thus, we are born condemned sinners. We are separated from God and His grace from birth. We are born spiritually dead. Only the blood of Christ can remove the stain and guilt of ...read more

    I.DEFINITION. The word is the Greek HUPOMONE. In Classical Greece it described the ability of a plant to thrive in a harsh environment - literally in the deserts and rocky slopes.

  • The Indwelling Of The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 9, 2002
    based on 75 ratings
     | 21,529 views

    This is a basic overview of the doctrine of the Indwelling of the Holy Spirit within the Christian. We examine when, how, and why the Spirit dwells in the child of God.

    When one obeys the Gospel of Jesus Christ, they receive the Holy Spirit. Paul asked the Galatian brethren (3:2): "This is the only thing I want to find out from you: did you receive the Spirit from the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?" The Spirit was not received through their ...read more

    A sermon that examines the risk taking faith of Rahab.

    What causes ordinary people to take risks?

    He is a successful and intelligent person; he has been blessed with a wonderful wife and children, he has quite a few friends and they do love him.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,816 views

    Message on the example of faith seen in Joshua at the battle of Jericho.

    There are times when what God tells us to do just doesn’t make sense. It has been this way ever since man first walked on the face of the earth. For example, Adam and Eve were told not to eat the fruit from the tree in the center of the garden. This just seemed unreasonable to them. Not only did ...read more
