Sermon: Propitiation
What does the term Propitiation mean, and how does the term relate to God’s scheme for redeeming man?
Sermon: The Evil Reign of King Jehoram
(2 Chronicles 21). King Jehoram of Judah was, unlike his father, an evil king. He abused his power, was corrupted by his wife, and his pride and amibition led to his demise. There are many good applications to be made as we seek to avoid his mistakes.
Sermon: Confession
The lesson is a discussion of the nature of and requirement to confess the good confession before men – “with the mouth confession is made to salvation.” (Romans 10:10).
Sermon: A Christian’s View of the Unborn
A Christian’s view of the unborn requires a respect for the sanctity of life, even in the womb. In the face of societal division, the Christian should bring light, not heat to the discussion.
Sermon: The Attributes of God
The lesson looks at what the scripture reveals about the person, position and character of Jehovah.
Sermon: Proverbs on Parenting
The book of Proverbs has much to say about Parenting. Emphasis in this lesson is on Love, Instruction and Correction.
Sermon: The Bible Doctrine of Sanctification
This important concept, developed in both the Old and New Testaments, emanates from God’s character. It explains why God requires what He requires of us. It equips us to live the lives God wants us to live.
Sermon: “When I consider Your heavens”
David’s contemplation of the night sky seems to have been the inspiration for Psalm 8. The Psalm shows that God is worthy of praise, both for His creative work, and his patronage of man.
Sermon: Being a Child of God
Speaker: Tommy Davis
There is a great cause for joy when one is a child of God!
Sermon: When I Sin
No one is immune to sin. Only the Son of God Himself lived his life without sinning. Since all sin, the key is responding to that sin in your life appropriately. In doing so you can escape the consequences, and benefit from God’s mercy.
The Patternists: Followers of Us
In Paul’s introductory comments to the congregation in Thessalonica, he was extremely complimentary of their faith. He wrote of his thankfulness as he remembered, “without ceasing your work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father” (1 Thessalonians 1:3).
He also expressed how that faith and obedience was instilled in them. He wrote of them having received the “word”, and in so doing they became “followers of us and of the Lord” (1:6).
Sermon: Three Crosses
A discussion of the Crucifixion narrative in Luke 23. There are three crosses worthy of discussion: A Cross of Rebellion, A Cross of Repentance, and A Cross of Redemption.
Sermon: “Be Hospitable”
A discussion of the Christians responsibility to be hospitable. This command of God is defined, and the practice is examined by an appeal to the scriptures.
Sermon: God Be Merciful to Us and Bless Us
Psalm 67 is a song of praise to God for His blessings, mercy, sovereignty and fairness. All nations should praise Him, and when we do, He bestows His blessings upon us.
Sermon: The Elementary Principles of Christ
This lesson is a discussion of the elementary doctrines the Hebrew writer lists in Hebrews 6:1-3, with an admonition to progress in our spiritual maturity. Those who do not progress, tend to regress, and are in danger of apostasy.
