The Resurrected Christ

Jim — Sat, 16 Apr 2022 14:24:27 +0000

The Day The World Calls Easter The world of Christianity in general, looks upon today, as a very special day. Today is looked upon as the day Christ was resurrected from the dead. And so this day, commemorates that great event. Christ’s resurrection was indeed a great event. When someone speaks about the gospel of Christ, what they refer to, in short, is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus...

Learning From Jesus

Jim — Sat, 09 Apr 2022 15:21:21 +0000

Learn From Jesus and His Word “Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me. For I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” Those are the words of Jesus, from Mat chapter 11, and verse 29. A lot of people think that when Jesus said, “Take My yoke upon you”, that He meant to take His burden, upon yourself. ...

The Disciple Whom Jesus Loved – Part 1

Jim — Sun, 19 Apr 2020 22:38:51 +0000

The Beloved Disciple I’m going to begin a two part lesson today, and I think it’s going to be an interesting one. We’ll have part one today, and part two next week, Lord willing. There’s several things about the bible that spark our curiosity. And the things that seems to spark our curiosity the most, are the things that are not completely revealed. And I’m sure the...

The Last Shall Be First

Jim — Sun, 22 Mar 2020 22:46:04 +0000

Humility and Sacrifice You’ve no doubt heard the bible phrase which says.. “The last shall be first”. Jesus used that saying a umber of times, in different situations. And what that saying refers to, is humility, service, and sacrifice. When you’re humble, and when you’re willing to serve, instead of to BE served, and when you’re willing to sacrifice willing to sacrifice, you are putting yourself “last”. ...

The Promise Of God

Jim — Sun, 15 Mar 2020 00:10:30 +0000

New Testament Promises I’d like to read to you some of the promises that God has made to us in the new testament. First, there’s this promise from Romans 8, verse 28. And I think this is the favorite verse of a lot of people, because it’s such a great promise. Here it is.. “And we know, that God causes all things to...

Sin, Shame And Excuses

Jim — Sun, 08 Mar 2020 00:47:12 +0000

Accountability for Sin The bible says, in Genesis 3, verses 7 thu 10; “Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loin coverings. They heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife...

The Glory Of Your Spirit

Jim — Sat, 07 Mar 2020 00:20:11 +0000

Think About the Glory of Your Spirit.. Think about the glory of your spirit, and the glory of every Christian’s spirit. Most people spend far too much time thinking about the glory of their appearance, but spend very little time thinking about the glory of their spirit. But everyone is born with a glorious spirit. God said in Genesis 1, verse 26; “Let...

The Scepter Of Righteousness

Jim — Wed, 29 Jan 2020 16:33:16 +0000

The Scepter of the Kingdom of God Consider if you would, the words of Hebrews 1, verse 8; “..And the scepter of righteousness, is the scepter of Thy kingdom.” A scepter is basically a rod, or a staff; However a scepter is almost always an ornamented staff, or a decorated staff, that a king or an emperor would carry in his hands, especially on ceremonial occasions. ...

What Is The Spirit, Of Your Spirit ?

Jim — Sat, 25 Jan 2020 14:32:12 +0000

Does your Spirit Possess the Proper Spirit ? In 1968, Kenny Rogers was with a group called The First Edition, and they recorded a song called “I Just Dropped In, To See What Condition My Condition Was In”. And that became the chorus of the song.. “To see what condition my condition was in”. I suppose maybe you’d call that, a play-on-words, and the reason that I...

James 5, Verses 13 thru 20

Jim — Sun, 19 Jan 2020 14:43:21 +0000

Concerning James 5, Verses 13 thru 20 Verse 13 introduces a new subject matter, from the previous verses. James had been talking about those who trust in their riches, instead of trusting in God. And he had been talking about how the rich sometimes persecute the poor. And he talked about being patient, and waiting on the Lord, to receive the Lord’s blessings. And he talked about treating one...

God is on My Side ! Psalm 56, verse 9 says; “Then shall my enemies turn back, in the day that I call; This I know, that God is for me!” Psalm 111:6 says; “Jehovah is on my side, I will not fear. What can man do unto me?” Is God on Your Side ? I want to read a quote from Jesus. ...

Ecclesiastes Chapter 12 (1) “Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them.

Christmas

Jim — Mon, 23 Dec 2019 15:14:34 +0000

Tis The Season The bible tells us, in Ecclesiastes 3, verse 1; “For everything, there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.” A “season” is a definite, appointed time; A “time” appointed by God. We’re told in verse 2; “There is, a “time to be born, and a time to die”. Galatians 4, verse 4 says; “But when the fullness of time...

God’s Everlasting Covenants – Part 3, God’s Salvation

Jim — Sat, 07 Dec 2019 16:57:24 +0000

God’s Covenants and God’s Salvation Today I want to continue our study about God’s covenants. And I want to show you how God’s covenants, are intertwined, with God’s eternal “purpose”, which is the salvation of man’s soul. Often times, we refer to this “eternal purpose”, as God’s “plan of salvation”. But in Ephesians 3, verse 11, God calls it His “purpose”. Here’s what it says...

Knowledge, Rational Thinking, & Understanding

Jim — Sat, 23 Nov 2019 13:56:38 +0000

Three Accounts of the Lord’s Supper Mathew, Mark, and Luke, all give an account of the evening when Jesus gave His instructions about the Lord’s supper. But they don’t all give exactly the same account. And that’s where the problem begins. People then claim that the bible contradicts itself, and therefore cannot be trusted. How can the bible be the word of God, if it can’t...

The Silence Of The Scriptures – Part 2, The Worship Assembly

Jim — Sun, 17 Nov 2019 22:35:27 +0000

The Silence of the Scriptures, and Our Worship Jesus said, in Luke 4, verse 8; “..It is written; You shall worship the Lord thy God, and Him only, shall you serve.” The bible isn’t silent about worshipping God. “It is written; You SHALL worship, the Lord thy God..” And it’s also written, in John 4:24; “God is Spirit, an those who worship Him, MUST worship in...

Making Bible Study Fun

Jim — Thu, 07 Nov 2019 13:13:46 +0000

Do You Think Bible Study Should Be Fun? Here’s a question for you; Do you think that bible study should be fun? I do. When we try to teach the bible to little children, it’s pretty much accepted, that you’ve got to find a way to make it fun for them. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be interested, right? Bible study would be completely boring for...

Jim — Sun, 27 Oct 2019 01:51:57 +0000

Thinking about the Resurrection You like to think about nice things don’t you? Well, this morning, I’d like us to think about the resurrection, unto eternal life. It’s a lovely thought, and it’s a pure thought, and it’s a true thought.

Jim — Sat, 12 Oct 2019 17:53:11 +0000

Separate from the World, Joined to Christ I want to begin by quoting a scripture, and I’d like you to hang onto this quote, and think about it as we go through this study this morning. This is from Psalm 116, verses 9 & 10; “I will walk before Jehovah, in the land of the living. I have believed, therefore I have spoken.” There’s...
