    Why can't some people "get it" when it comes to the Christian gospel?

    Sometimes the words we speak just don't connect with the person to whom we are speaking. During the first week of basic training, an army drill sergeant was explaining what was in store for his squad during the next two months. One young private raised his hand and asked, "Sergeant, when do we ...read more

    The only case in biblical history of death bed salvation is rendered to a crook on a cross.

    A Sinner’s Prayer Luke 23:39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. 40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the ...read more

    How can the modern professional cope with the overwhelming sense of emptiness and irrelevance?

    Faced with the challenge of Corinth, Paul rolled up his sleeves and got right down to basics. He determined to put aside all other practical and doctrinal issues and focused entirely on Jesus Christ and Him crucified. But why does Paul mention ’Him crucified’, and not ’Him resurrected’? Because ...read more

    God is in control!

    1 Corinthians 2:9-16 but just as it is written, "THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM."

    The cross is the symbol of the Christian faith. It is our central message.

    Homiletics 101 -- "What Preaching Should Be” Series

    Contributed by Guy Glass on Feb 17, 2005
    based on 51 ratings
     | 15,554 views

    Paul wants us to understand that preaching is not based on the contribution of the preacher, but on the message being communicated. Preaching, in the mind of Paul is to be valued in the core truth, not in the charisma of the speaker!

    Homiletics 101 “What Preaching Should Be” 1 Corinthians 2:1-5 INTRODUCTION: As we approach this passage of Scripture, and in doing so leave the first chapter of the letter, it is important that we understand what it is we are leaving behind.

    Without the divine intervention of God in the death of Christ, and His resurrection, man would be destitute spiritually, and following Christ would be little more than a glorified Boy Scout Troop. So here in these verses, Paul seeks to explain what it is

    GOD’S MESSAGE TO US 1 Corinthians 2:6-13 INTRODUCTION: As we have previously discussed, the Apostle Paul is concerned about one thing and one thing only – the gospel of Christ portrayed out in the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. This pervasive biblical truth is central to ...read more

     | 10,526 views

    Paul reminds the Corinthians of his manner of preaching when he came to their city. His example is an excellent one for all present-day preachers.

    “The foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom” (1:25). Of course God is never foolish. But to the human mind, He appears to be foolish. Man says, “The God of the Bible does not follow our wisdom; therefore He must be foolish, He must not be believed.” · That God saves people who put their ...read more

    based on 15 ratings
     | 7,750 views

    Paul explains in these verses how some have come to reject the world’s opinion of the cross and see in it the wisdom of God.

    These verses are a continuation of the argument Paul began in 1:18: “The message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” Paul is still talking about the cross in chapter 2. This fact is essential to a proper understanding of ...read more

    At times the church can be focused on too many "issues" and its desire to prove itself right. But what should we really be focused on? What is The Real Issue?

    John 5:37-39 And the Father who sent me has himself testified concerning me. You have never heard his voice nor seen his form, nor does his word dwell in you, for you do not believe the one he sent.
