    How To Serve As An Effective Sender - 3 John 1:7,8

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Jul 7, 2002

    Many Christians are missing out on some of the greatest blessings available in the New Testament and they do not even realize it. In our passage this morning, John recognized missionaries as co-laborers worth investing in.

    How to Serve as An Effective Sender - 3 John 1:7,8 Quote:If the world were a village of 1000 people, next year’s population would be 1018. Twenty-eight people would be born, but 10 would die: three from lack of food, one from cancer, two in birth, one from war or crime, and three from natural ...read more

    Two "Weddings" And A "Funeral" Series

    In the characters of III John, Gaius, Demetrius, and Diotrephes, we learn how to bond and we discover what kills relationships. Designed for "punctuation" by organ music between the sections.

    We really need to connect. We are made for fellowship, and if we do not connect with one another, we will dry up and die. We need to connect with God; and we need to connect with one another.

    If we have Christ, we should have joy. There is nothing wrong with enjoying the joy. Joy is found in Christ

    3 John 1-4 Enjoy the Joy Introduction A. When is the last time you saw someone smile just for no reason? B. When is the last time you went to the store and the clerk actually seemed happy to be working? C. When is the last time you walk in your boss’s office and he seemed to be in a good ...read more

    February 26, 2022 Today we are combining 2nd and 3rd JOHN and JUDE.

    Provoking Thoughts From (3 John)

     | 1,589 views

    Again, I want to bring to your attention the fact that second and third John are very small books,

    but to say they were insignificant would be like saying a person who is short is not significant. We know that size does not have anything to do with significance. However, there is a contrast between second and third John. For example, Remember, we mentioned in the previous message that some ...read more

    The book of John is often neglected.

    Why? It could be because it is a small book. Illus: But we need to remember that “Dynamite” can come in small package. We know that size does not have anything to do with significance. John teaches many things in this third epistle for God’s church. Illus: Many of the movies that Hollywood ...read more

    True Biblical Prosperity

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Feb 9, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,944 views

    Prosperity is not based on what we possess but on who we are inside, or who we are spiritually. Prosperity is not determined by a lack of hard times, but by how we handle tough situations; by whether or not we maintain our joy.

    I have entitled our message this evening “True Biblical Prosperity.” If there is “true” biblical teaching on prosperity, then there must also be “false” teaching. Therefore, I am going to briefly address the false teaching that’s out there, and then point out what the Bible defines as true ...read more

    Putting It All Together Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 1,595 views

    It's nonsense to build our lives on a lie, but people do it. God calls us to build on a foundation of truth.

    There is nothing quite so destructive as a lie. No one wants to be lied to. It is nothing short of betrayal. And no one wants to be lied about. It is an ugly and contemptuous act. The Bible traces our worst problems back to a lie. The serpent, remember, asked the woman whether it was true what he ...read more

    God, who is all good and has made everything good, never wills anything but good.

    Saturday of the 32nd Week in Course 2022 Take a look at this judge in the Gospel. You talk about corrupt politicians? This guy doesn’t even fear God, and has no respect for any human being.

    We look at three New Testament men--two good examples; one, bad.

    This third Epistle of John is a letter about three men. Their names are Gaius [GAY us], Diotrephes, and Demetrius. Two of the men stand in sharp contrast to the other one. Let’s look at these two first. I. GAIUS—the person to whom the epistle is addressed. A. Shown evidence in his life of the ...read more
