    Abraham received righteousness on account of what he believed; What was is that Abraham believed? Abraham's willingness to sacrifice Isaac is a picture of what Christians believe the Gospel.

    Genesis: What Did Abraham Believe? Genesis 22:1-19 We are going to take some time to look at scarlet threads of the Gospel message which are woven throughout the Old Testament. The book of Genesis is the book of beginnings, In the beginning, God created the earth and all that is in the ...read more

    The name Jehovah-Jireh is one of God's compound names in which His identity is covenant connected to certain attributes, guaranteeing His fulfillment in those areas. We look at the origin, meaning, and purpose of the name Jehovah-Jireh in relation to us.

    JEHOVAH-JIREH Gen. 22:14 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: 1. There are times when even doing what is right seems like it will backfire on you. Old habits are hard to break. 2.

    The Bible refers to God by different names and each one reveals some aspect of His character and His relationship with us.

    Jehovah Jireh (God the Provider) The passage Jehovah Jireh is one of the best-known names of God. We claim it when we pray. We sing it in praise songs. This name is found in one solitary verse in the Bible, Genesis 22:14. The context of the verse is as follows. (Gen 22:1-14 NIV) Some time later ...read more

    Father And Son

    Contributed by Doug Houck on Dec 21, 2020
     | 3,738 views

    God shared the pathos of His sacrifice of Jesus through having Abraham sacrifice Isaac. Two storytellers are needed: [#1] will tell the story of Abraham and Isaac, and [#2] will tell the story of God the Father and Jesus.

    Introduction [#1] Genesis 22:1-2 This is a story of a Father, Son, and sacrifice. Usually we understand this chapter in terms of testing, faith, obedience, commitment, surrender, substitutionary sacrifice, The Lord Will Provide. It’s all in there.

    Paul spoke of various vessels within a great house. We are all vessels, belonging to the Master. Each vessel is different, and yet each has potential and is expected to be of use. We are either a vessel of honor or dishonor.

    Vessels of Honor 2 Timothy 2: 19-23 Much like the Lord, Paul was a master of using ordinary illustrations to reveal significant truth. Our text today is yet another example of Paul’s unique and memorable imagery. Knowing the need for committed service, along with the struggle to remain pure and ...read more

    The Lord wants to bring good things out of bad things (Romans 8:28). What are some good things that we find here in Isaiah 61 that helps those who grieve and mourn?

    HoHum: Last year talked about a Blue Christmas where we acknowledge our losses of loved ones as we approach the holiday season.

    The Way Of The Cross

    Contributed by Dawn Duryea on Mar 4, 2024
     | 937 views

    In today’s Gospel reading, Peter responds to Jesus’ announcement that the Messiah will have to suffer and die by denying the cross. Peter is in essence denying the truth of this teaching – that the Messiah must suffer and by extension, his disciples.

    Last week we heard about Jesus being tempted in the wilderness right after his Baptism. That’s the way it feels sometimes – you just make a decision and then things happen that immediately bring your decision into question. This wilderness, of course, is metaphorical and now we find ourselves in ...read more

    There are times when we ask questions becuase the promises of God has not been fultilled in our lives, and there is nothing wrong in asking questions.

    Isaiah 61:1-4 1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken hearted , to proclaim liberty to the captives , and the opening of the prison to them that are bound ; 2 To proclaim the acceptable ...read more
