August 30, 2010

62. The Need to Preach on Sin
August 21, 2010
There is a great need to preach on sin today. I am not at all sure that sin is any worse or more prevalent today than in generations gone by for one can go back in history and find unimaginable sin. Human sacrifice, cannibalism, idol worship, all forms of sexual debauchery, witchcraft, mass murder...

63. The Wicked Shall be Turned into Hell
August 13, 2010
David, in Psalms 9:17, made this statement: "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God." (NKJV) That is strong, strong language and language people do not want to hear. Some would probably call it hate speech. People do not want to hear about hell and many reject ...

65. Things God Cannot Do
August 03, 2010
The Bible teaches there are things God cannot do. Why not? It is certainly not because he is wanting in power or knowledge but it is a matter of who he is, his nature or character. We can understand that. There are things you and I could do but our character would never allow it. I thought it w...

July 28, 2010
"God is Spirit, and those who worship him must worship him in spirit and truth." (John 4:24 NKJV) Whose job is it to bless the bread and bless the fruit of the vine when the Lord's Supper is being observed? One hears continually the man presiding over the table, the one who makes a few comm...

July 19, 2010

68. Better to Never Have Been Born - Why?
July 14, 2010
Jesus, in reference to his betrayer Judas said, "It would have been better for that man if he had not been born." (Matt. 26:24 ESV) Most of us who believe the Bible can understand what Jesus said and why as it pertains to Judas and if we could leave it at that we could rest in peace. Why then does...
