    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 21, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 13,305 views

    Jesus said He was the good shepherd. But why do I need Him to do that? Why can't I get along just fine without Him?

    OPEN: Several years ago in the country of Turkey, a flock of sheep made the news. It seems that the shepherds of the flock had been eating breakfast when their sheep began to wander off. Now, ordinarily this wouldn’t have been a problem, except the flock was just a stone’s throw away from a cliff. ...read more

     | 16,812 views

    Angels should never be worshiped. But we know there was a dangerous practice in the early church concerning the worship of angels.

    INTRODUCTION Last week we started the new verse-by-verse series through Hebrews. I’ve been preaching for forty-six years, but I’ve never preached all the way through this book.

    based on 1 rating
     | 16,265 views

    Luke's gospel tells us that Mary and Joseph offered the poor person's sacrifice when taking Jesus to the Temple. Why would God have chosen for His Son to be born into a poor family?

    TWO YOUNG PIGEONS: Jesus’ family gave the poor offering. - Luke 2:24. - Leviticus 12:8. - Unless you know the Old Testament background, the mention of dove/pigeon offering is one that we would pass right over. We have no frame of reference on what it means. - When we look back in Leviticus, ...read more

    Why Is Blood Needed For Forgiveness Of Sins? Series

    Contributed by Paul Clemente on Jun 3, 2019
     | 4,908 views

    A "Will" requires death (shedding of blood) in order for the promises in a will is realized; the old and new covenant requires shedding of blood but Jesus' was from heaven, once and for all, and eternal!

    As we prepare our hearts for Communion, let us listen and learn from God’s Word in Hebrews 9….. As we had noted from the first half of Hebrews 9, God established a relationship with the Hebrews of old through a covenant but it was limited, temporary, and only a shadow of what is in heaven. ...read more

    Why 2,000 Years Ago Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Dec 6, 2018
     | 7,366 views

    Why did Jesus Come when He did. Why not before? Why not later? We will see that God had just the right time in history, like none other, for Jesus to come.

    Why 2 thousand years ago? Think about it, the land of Israel was occupied by the Romans. A pagan nation ruled over Israel and the Jewish people were in a state of upheaval, and the priestly system was corrupt. If Jesus came as a Ruler, or as a King, as a warrior Messiah, to drive out the Romans, ...read more
