    based on 17 ratings
     | 9,425 views

    Jesus looked beyond the physical appearance of people and saw THE SUFFERINGS OF HUMANITY. He also looked at the ministry and saw THE SHORTAGE OF HARVESTERS. The challenge: Do you feel the pains and desperation of people around you? Will you be a worker in

    DO WE WANT TO SEE WHAT JESUS SAW? Matt. 9:35-38 THE PROPOSITION: We can only have true compassion for people the way Jesus had compassion for them until we look at people the way Jesus look at them.

    There will be times in our lives when we suffer for doing good deeds, but follow Jesus’ example and continue doing good deeds.

    Text: “Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good?” (I Peter 3:13). How many people here this morning like to do good deeds? We like to do good deeds because we were raised with that thought in mind. Our parents taught us the difference between good and evil. Our Sunday school ...read more

    Why Does A Loving God Allow Suffering? Series

    Contributed by Brad Stone on Jun 21, 2024
     | 1,725 views

    We all have ask the question of how a God who loves and is omnipotent could allow certain events that result in suffering to occur. In this message, I try to answer that question and bring hope to people who may be suffering.

    Biblical Answers to Life’s Tough Questions: Why Does a Loving God Allow Suffering? Romans 8:22 1 Peter 5:10 How many of you have ask this very question before? I know that I have. I have questioned why an omnipotent God doesn’t stop certain events from happening. We realize and have faith that ...read more

    Good Friday Happened.

    Uses Scriptures to walk through what Good Friday is to us. This is a text I sent out to all of my Congregations to arrive in their text boxes at 3pm Friday.

    Why do we call it Good Friday? Etymology. "Good Friday" comes from the obsolete sense "pious, holy" of the word "good". Good Friday This is Good Friday and you should be receiving this at 3 p.m.. This is a reminder of what Jesus did for us: Scriptures ...read more

     | 6,375 views

    We don't need to fill another notebook, with more outlines, of powerful truths, and wonderful insights, we do not suffer from a lack of correct heads, but what we need is to have more of a consumed heart, and more of walking out what we already know.

    Do the Do Today we are back in our series on James, and today probably more than any other message you will see why I chose for our series title, "James seeing things from the right perspective." Today we are going to talk about a subject that Jesus spoke on frequently, and in our text today James ...read more

    Any ability or talent or appearance or power or fame we receive is entirely derivative-an expression of His goodness imputed to us for a short while. Satan wanted worship for himself. Saints seek to bring worship to their God.

    And around the throne, twenty four thrones, and on the thrones twenty four elders sitting, clothed in white garments, and on their heads, golden crowns (of victory) And out of the throne came lightnings and voices and thunders, and seven fiery lamps burning before the throne, which are the seven ...read more

    Why We Should Wait On The Lord

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 17, 2022
     | 4,388 views

    In our text, God talks to us about waiting. Waiting is something none of us enjoy doing.

    Most of us would have to admit we have never heard anyone say, “I love to wait”. There are some particular things we hate to wait for, such as: • Sitting in the dentist’s office waiting for them to say, “You are next!” When they say this, you almost want to kiss your wife and kids goodbye, ...read more

    The Suffering In His Ministry Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 10, 2018
     | 7,398 views

    God had entrusted to Paul and his fellow evangelists this treasure of great worth—the gospel of Christ—but why would He do this? Because He delights in empowering the weak in order to confound the strong.

    As believers we need to realize the dangerous position in which we put ourselves when we decide to reject God’s will and run from His plan.

    What Happens When We Run – Rejecting God’s Will Text: Jonah 1 (Sunday AM) Date: January 9, 2000 I. Introduction Attention: I had neatly folded my clothes, at least as neatly as an eight year old could have, and I had placed them in a little bag.

    Who are we? What are we? Why do we exist?

    Who are we? What are we? Why do we exist? The Greek word for a human being is ?????p?? (anthropos) and so this study of humanity deals with the topic of biblical anthropology. Who are we?

    based on 30 ratings
     | 10,354 views

    Many people ask the question, "Why is life unfair?" The Psalmist in the 73 Psalm, feels the same way. How do we answer this question?

    Why Do The Wicked Prosper? Life is unfair. There are so many things about life that don’t make sense. I had a great childhood. My father was a police officer here in Nashville. My mother was a CPA in Green Hills. We lived in what the time seemed like a mansion. Now looking back I realize it ...read more

     | 1,693 views

    Waiting for something to happen is hard to do. But there is a purpose for waiting. Can Christians learn to wait without having a negative attitude?

    Have you actually taken the time to notice how many fast-paced things are in our society now?

    Do We Love...?

     | 5,082 views

    We are not only to love Christ but to love like Christ. We must ask ourselves “Do we love?” Do we love Christ more than we love the world? Our brothers and sisters in Christ? The lost and dying world? Do we really love?

    Do We Love...? 1 John 4:7-12 As believers we have been called to a life of love. We are not only to love Christ but to love like Christ.

     | 6,033 views

    A word we don't like is submission. We certainly don't like it when we feel as if we're being wronged somehow. “Submission” is the key ingredient that enables a Christian to live a good life among the ungodly!

    I’m confident that in the years that follow, there will be plenty of articles and books written about this chapter in world history and in church history. And they will address the question, “what lessons did we learn from all of this?” And I’m confident that much of that will be helpful. Looking ...read more
