    I want to change your thinking when it comes to God’s command for one day of rest. I want you to think more about what you are commanded to do rather than what you are not commanded to do.

    We are in a series featuring the Ten Commandments. We began with an overview of the scene when the Ten Commandments were first given in Exodus 19. And now we find ourselves examining the fourth commandment. Today’s Scripture “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor, ...read more

    Kindness

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Aug 22, 2021
     | 11,812 views

    The message encourages Christians to cooperate with the Holy Spirit in the development of kindness in their character. Evidence of biblical kindness in our lives is explored as well as Issues that undermine kindness.

    Today’s message is very simply entitled “Kindness.” Are you a kind person? The Pharisees of Jesus day were very religious, but they were not kind. Their attitude toward other people was condescending, arrogant, and condemning. This attitude came out in John 7. Jesus was at the temple teaching ...read more

    "who Killed Jesus?"

     | 1,591 views

    When we look back at the life of Jesus, I find it helpful to look at it in segments and each segment comes with a theme. We see his birth and dedication in the temple; we’ll call that phase one.

    Be Practical, Not Legalistic Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021

     | 3,496 views

    Jesus taught the Pharisees how He desires sincere love for people over meaningless ritual, and how He desires grace over legalism. Those who adhere to ritual and tradition are often unable to love others or worship God.

    In our message today, we will see how Jesus taught the Pharisees that forgiveness and grace toward others is a necessity before worship. The capacity to extend love and mercy is something that must be present in a person’s heart before he or she is able to worship the Lord in spirit and truth, as ...read more

    Lord Of The Sabbath ( Matthew 12:1-14)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 23, 2025
     | 600 views

    In this chapter, Jesus teaches the true meaning of the “Sabbath” and how it is to bring glory to God, not to be used as a religious weapon. The hostility towards Jesus was starting to grow.

    Before we undergo any further study of this chapter, it would be helpful to understand the concept of the “Sabbath”. According to the fourth commandment (Exodus 20:8), the Sabbath was set aside as one day in seven to cease from labor and take a rest from all unnecessary activity. Exodus 31:15 ...read more

    Every few years something happens to remind us we should never put our trust in princes, or politicians, but only in our Lord, Jesus Christ.

    Friday of the fifteenth week in course 2024 (7/19) It’s not possible for me to read the Scriptures today and ignore what happened just a week ago in Pennsylvania.

    All of them were survivors, in the strict sense, each party with its own quirks. The Pharisees stood behind the Law.

    Friday of the Fifteenth Week in Course 2025 Have you ever wondered just why it was that the Pharisees, who seemed to be everywhere Jesus went, were such prigs? These days we might even call the “Karens,” although I’ve known real Karens and they weren’t so judgmental as the Pharisees. I think the ...read more
