"Let the man who would hear God speak, read Holy Scriptures." - Martin Luther
Scripture as the Only Source of Life and Endurance - Part 2 (39 of 44)
by Patrick Edwards
Introduction: Last time we worked through this text we found Paul's warning of how in the last days many will abandon their profession of the faith. Paul warned that it will become more and more difficult for true followers of Jesus to hold and practice their faith because of the wickedness they will encounter around them. In other words, the world will become more and more toxic as non-Christians give themselves over more and more to their love of self and pleasure. It's honestly not too hard to imagine such a world as we are certainly moving now in this trend. All around us we see the pretenses of progressivism, people...
God's Word (2 of 7)
by Robert Dawson
One of the lessons we had to learn - should have learned - struggled to learn growing up was ''if something is worth doing it is worth doing right. Don't do anything halfway.'' I can't tell you how many times I heard that growing up. I was not exactly a quick study - never have been - especially with things that did not come naturally. Have you noticed you don't have to teach your children how to goof off and shirk responsibility? They learn and perfect that all on their own. So, for me, being a typical kid it was not a lesson I learned quickly - easily - or willingly. I loathed those moments in the yard with dad critiquing my work - you missed...
The Word Of God
by Adrian Rogers
Would you take the Word of God and turn tonight with me please to Hebrews four and in a moment we're going to look at verse twelve, one of the great, great, great verses of the Word of God. From the great God that Betty just sang about. Oh, Lord, our God how great thou art. Hebrews four, twelve says ''For the Word of God is quick and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.'' We want to pitch our mental thoughts around this wonderful, wonderful verse. The title of our message...

Welcoming the Word of God
by Robert Walker
John Wanamaker was one of the greatest businessmen our country ever had. One day, he was giving a speech at his place of business. And he said, ''I have of course made large purchases of property in my lifetime ... and the buildings and grounds in which we are now meeting represent a value of approximately $20 billion! ''But the biggest purchase I ever made was when I was an 11-year-old country boy. In a little mission Sunday school, I bought from my teacher a small, red leather Bible. The Bible cost me $2.75, which I paid for in small monthly installments. That was my greatest purchase, for that Bible made me what I am today...
The Preservation of the Word of God
by J. Gerald Harris
As we begin this message I want to give you three words. The first word is found in Psalm 119:89 (read). The Hebrew word for ''settled'' is ''natsab.'' It can also mean ''fixed,'' or it can mean ''established.'' What the psalmist is saying is that before the Word was delivered on earth, the Word existed in heaven. This Book written on earth is but a copy of what God has written in heaven. I want you to look in I Peter 1:23-25. Here Peter says that ''we are born again, not of ''phtharte,'' corruptible or perishable seed, but of ''aphtharte,'' of incorruptible seed, ''by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.'' So here the apostle is inspired to say the...
The Word of God (3 of 4)
by Jeff Schreve
I want to ask you tonight, how many in here have ever gone on a diet? Anybody ever gone on a diet? All right, just a few of you. But I think a lot of us, once you get over a certain age; you're kind of prone to be watching your weight. And I have never really had a problem with my weight until the last few years. It's like you turn 40 and, and things start to sink. I don't know what it is, but that just happens. And I've been on a diet kind of cutting carbs and it's working pretty good. And I was doing good for a while. But, you know, you get tired of doing that. And one of the problems that you have on being on a diet, if you're like me, I like to...
Scripture Alone
by Stephen Whitney
Martin Luther was born in 1483 and as a young man became a monk and then a teacher of theology at the University of Wittenberg, Germany. As he studied scripture to teach the students theology he became convinced that some of the practices of the Catholic Church were wrong such as: the absolute authority of the pope, traditions of the church and how a person was saved. It was the custom of the time for the large doors of the local church to use as bulletin boards where people posted events which would take place in town. As Martin Luther became more critical of the Catholic Church he decided to write down his points of disagreement...
The Power of the Word of God
by Jesse Hendley
What excuse do you have for being a weak Christian? The Lord is the Source of all power, and every Christian may have His power, great power, exceeding great power. It is for us! And God wants us to know it. We ought to cry to God for more power; we need it or we faint in the spiritual walk. Each day brings us into conflict, in some, way, with the world, the flesh and the devil. How are we to withstand? How are we to be over comers? How can we take the ''offensives'' in life, and not merely resist but aggressively go out and make gains for Christ, winning souls, and going forward in the fight? Christian, if you really know...
The Discipline Of Gods Word
by Jimmy Evans
It would be difficult to decide between prayer and study of God's Word as to which one is more important. Both of these disciplines are critical in establishing and maintaining an intimate personal relationship with God. They are the two daily disciplines which provide the foundation- for every other area of our Christian walk. When they are present or weak, then we are vulnerable to defeat and compromise. First Scripture - minister fear than comfort Common denominator of those who fall away - apathy or rejection of God's word - Deut. 6:6-9 - Matt. 4 - II Thess. 2:1-12 - apostacy - in accordance with Satan's activity - all deception...
Trusting in God Alone
by Jerry Vines
Let's talk a little bit about how trouble relates to the Christian life. Bro. Dawson and I were visiting in the home of a young couple the other week. We were talking about the Christian life. I said to them that the Christian life begins with the supernatural birth. You invite the Lord Jesus into your heart and you are instantaneously born into the family of God. But a Christian life continues by growth. God's design, God's purpose for everyone who is saved is that they grow and develop and become the mature, full grown Christian that God intends. One of the ingredients God uses in the process of helping us to grow and...
To the Glory of God Alone
by Stephen Whitney
Anthony Collins, who lived in the 1700's, was a Justice of the Peace an English writer who became a well-know deist. Deists believed in the existence of God but reject revealed religion based on the Scriptures, instead basing their belief on physical nature, human reason and personal experience. They rejected supernal events such as prophecy and miracles and instead believed that God does not interfere with human life and the laws of the universe he created. They believe God created the world and then has let it go like we would wind up an alarm clock and let it wind down on its own without interfering with it. Deism became...
Standing Alone for God (6 of 8)
by Roger Thomas
Introduction: Nobody likes to be the only one! No one wants to be different. Teenagers don't! Senior citizens don't! I am sure Noah didn't. Psychology books are filled with studies that demonstrate the power of peer pressure. One classic study involved a classroom of teenagers. On the board in the front of the class were three charts with a series of lines of varying lengths on each. The teacher instructed the students to each raise his or her hand when he pointed to the longest line on each chart. What one student didn't know was that the other nine had been instructed ahead of time to raise their hands for the next to the longest...
A God Of His Word And Grace
by David Cawston
Introduction: Background of these days are as follows: 645 years after Joshua led the children of Israel into the promise land these events begin to take place in this chapter. You get a picture of God Grace and patience! Waiting for my car to be fixed, I watched a lady pass time at the auto-repair shop by working on her nearly complete afghan, which she had draped over her lap. A man came into the waiting area, eyed her afghan, then sat down across from me. He got up, paced impatiently, then left the room, came back and sat in another chair. Finally, he came over and said, "I hope you didn't start that thing when you got here." God...
The Powerful Word of God
by Marvin D. Patterson
We are back in the Book of First Peter tonight, and we are going to examine the powerful Word of God. If you will remember from previous studies, God was planning for our salvation before the foundation of the world. Even though we were born in sin, we were redeemed, or bought back from sin by the precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ! Silver and gold will perish, but the blood of Jesus Christ God's Son will cleanse us of all sin! We also saw that our trials and temptations will purify us and build our faith and trust in the Christ! And then we observed that the writers of the Scriptures wrote of the sufferings of Christ...
Rediscovering the Word of God
by Rex Yancey
Since we will soon be 233 years old as a nation we need to rediscover the Word of God as the Israelites did back in Josiah's day. Manasseh and Amnon were wicked. They led the nation away from God into idolatry. Josiah's mother along with the prophet Jeremiah started a reformation. Martin Luther started a reformation October 31, 1517 by posting his 95 thesis on the door of the Catholic Church. Without a doubt someone needs to start a reformation today. We live in a world that is saturated with Bibles. I have read there are over 250 translations. The Bible is the best seller in the history of the world. However, in a real sense...
