    Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (10 Of 16)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022
     | 1,572 views

Of course much of the Bible deals with this subject, yet it seems to be something we Christians know very little about and those who are not Christians know even less. As we look at our text we want to learn from what it says to ...read more

    The focus of the passage before us is the mighty victory that the LORD wrought against Israel’s pursuers.

    A PATH THROUGH THE SEA. Exodus 14:19-31. EXODUS 14:19a. The “Angel of God” removed Himself from ‘going before’ the people and “went behind them.” We see here, and in other places where the Angel is mentioned, that the Angel is a distinct divine personality, and yet is at one with the LORD.

    Aside from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, I wonder if anyone here this morning can tell me what may have been the most famous sermon ever preached… I don’t have any statistics to back me up, but I am certain that one of the top contenders has to be a sermon delivered to a congregation in Enfield, ...read more
