    Explore how it's "fair" for a loving, non discriminating God to love one brother and hate the other.

    WHY GOD HATED ESAU Romans 9:13 13  As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. This has got to be one of the most difficult verses in the Bible.

    Preached on the Sunday Following Christmas. King Herod tried to kill the Child Jesus and he is just the tip of the iceberg. All the nations of the world and people without Jesus are in rebellion against God. Why are they in rebellion and what is God reaction to them?

    This is the final message on the “Why’s of Christmas” and perhaps the more difficult to understand. We explored “Why Christmas?” a month ago. Why Jesus had to come and His purpose in coming was to die for our sins. This is why we will be observing the Lord’s Supper today, the last Sunday of the ...read more

    How do you feel when someone welcomes you, specially if that is the first time you are there? There is nothing that the sad, frustrated, lonely, pathetic, empty soul does not like more than a friendly and smiling face saying “welcome”.

    How Hospitable are We? Genesis 18:1-8 NT: Hebrews 13: 2 1 The LORD appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day. 2 Abraham looked up and saw three men standing nearby. When he saw them, he hurried from the entrance of his ...read more

    Just who are we in Christ? Beginning in this sermon series, I beginning using the Christian Standard Bible as a more easier to unstandstand translation over the New King James Version I had been using for many years.

    Today we start a new sermon series: “Who we are in Christ.” A favorite phrase of Paul is the term “in Christ.” Paul’s use of the phrase is a whole study by itself. Paul, for the most part was the only one to use this phrase. The NT in the CSB, the term “in Christ” can be found 90 times in 88 ...read more
