Jesus, The Friend of Sinners
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 03/24/2024 (SM) Genesis 4:7 By One Man, Adam, Sin Entered the World. By One Man, Jesus Christ, Hope Came into the World. Sin Bringeth Forth Death, Sin is Deceitful, and Sin Entices. But Jesus Christ is the Friend of Sinners, and He Gives Us Hope and the Promise to a New Life in Him.
Humble, Pray, and Seek
-audio mp3-
Andy Walden 03/24/2024 (SN) II Chronicles 6:34-42
II Chronicles 7:1-3
The Hardest Thing For Us to Do Is to Humble Ourselves Before God. But We Must Get Humble Before We Pray to Him: Seek Out His Face and Turn From Our Wicked Ways. We've Lost the Power of God as the Evil in the World Becomes More and More Normal. [What Is in Your Temple?]
A Big Step Up
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 03/17/2024 (SM) Hebrews 1:1 Written to the Hebrews, God's Chosen People and Guardians of His Word, to Expound Unto Them the Way of God Completed as Example after Example Demonstrates the Supremacy of the Person, the Performance, the Priesthood and the Promises of the Lord Jesus Christ Over the Law of Moses Which Was the Foreshadowing of Him.
Bent Towards Backsliding
-audio mp3-
Barry McDonald 03/17/2024 (SN) Hosea 11:1-9
Ezekiel 16:1-6
Ephraim Joined Themselves to Idols and Were Bent Towards Backsliding; So God, Who Called Ephraim His First Born, Approaches as a Parent Does to a Child and Goes So Far as to Say, "I Will Love Them No More." Ezekiel Shows God Viewing Ephraim as He First Found Them: Cast Out and Dying in Their Own Blood He Had Compassion, and Just Like a Parent, He Said to Ephraim, "How Shall I Give Thee Up?"
The Battle Rages
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 03/10/2024 (SM) Genesis 3:1 Sin Originated Way Before the Garden of Eden, and the Ways and Wiles of Satan Have Been Elaborated and Honed Through the Ages. Satan Will Be the Adversary to Mankind Until He Is Finally Cast into the Lake of Fire. Overrunning Death and Despair Appall and Confuse Even Believers at Times. To React with Anger Towards God Is Not Uncommon. But, In Whatever Setting We Find Other Distraught Individuals, Let Us Intercede and Minister to Them Even as the Lord Has Shown Grace to Us.
The Heart of a Shepherd
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 03/10/2024 (SN) Psalm 23:1-6 Psalms 22-24 Talk About Christ as the Good, the Chief, and the Great Shepherd. The Good Shepherd Is Willing To Die For His Flock and Protect Them From the Enemy; the Chief Shepherd Restores Our Soul and Feeds His Bishops and Elders; and the Great Shepherd Brings Victory and Allows Us into the Presence of God Through Christ's Righteousness. God Looks Upon Our Heart, Which Is Why David Was Anointed As the King of Israel -- Because He Had the Heart of a Shepherd.
The Manifest Presence of God
-audio mp3-
Dean McNeese 03/03/2024 (SM) Psalm 130:1-4 Psalms 130-133 We See David's Anguish, Anxiety, Anointing, and Analogy. The Life Long Burden of David was that He Would Build the House of God and Return the Ark of the Covenant (Manifest Presence) to Its Rightful Place.

The Unpardonable Sin
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 02/25/2024 (SM) Matthew 12:31-32 Understanding How the Preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Working of the Holy Spirit Together Bring Conviction to the Heart of the Unbeliever. Then IF Knowingly, Willfully Rejected - There Is No Alternative to Receive Remission of Sin and There Is NO HOPE.
The Lord Shall Deliver
-audio mp3-
Roger Lee 02/25/2024 (SN) I Kings 22:1-8 The Friendship of Jehoshaphat (King of Judah) and Ahab (King of Israel) Was Between Two Men Who Were Vastly Different As Jehoshaphat Sought After God's Face and Ahab Had A Wicked Heart. We Must Never Make An Allegiance With Evil and Must Be Separate From the World.

Hebrews 11:6
The People Listed in This Chapter of Hebrews Are Flawed, But God Focuses Exclusively on Their Faith. All of Us Are Flawed, Too; But by the Mercy and Grace of Our Lord, We Have His Promise That Christ Is Our Advocate and That He Will Instruct Us in His Truth.
Get Desperate
-audio mp3-
Lucas Hickman 02/18/2024 (SN) Matthew 23:24-26 Four Examples from Scripture of People Who Were Desperate To Get To Jesus; Zacheus, Blind Bartimaeus, Woman with the Issue of Blood, and the Man with the Palsy. Exhortation to Us All to Stay Desperate for Family, Friends, Souls, and Revival.

I Corinthians 1:22-24
I Corinthians 2:2
The Burden of the Bible Is Christ, and the Burden of the Apostle Paul Was Also to Preach Christ and Him Crucified. The Power of the Cross Includes: Delivering Us From the Curse of the Law; Delivering Us From This World; Giving Us the Holy Spirit and the Fruit of the Spirit.

II Samuel 6:5-11
I Chronicles 15:24
The Second Biblical Example of the Precious Set of People Who Are "Unknown Here But Well-known There" Is Obededom the Gitite Who Took in the Ark of the Covenant, Centered It in His Home; and, Thereby, He (His Household and All That Pertaineth to Him) Were Greatly Blessed.

Three Good Samaritans
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 01/28/2024 (SM) John 8:33-51
The Self-Righteous Jewish Leaders Could Think of Nothing More Derisive Than to Call Jesus a Demon-Possessed Samaritan. But, From the Scripture We Read of Several Exemplary Individuals and the Lessons They Illustrate: the Woman At the Well (Gift of God); the Samaritan Leper Who Returned to Jesus (Thankfulness); and the Good Samaritan (Able Minister). The Grace of God Knows No Strangers; It Is A Fountain Head That Will Never Run Dry; and It Is For Everyone.

Charles Lawson 01/28/2024 (SN)

 

Hebrews
11:1-6
2 Peter 1:16

 

Peter Pronounced and Jesus Christ Affirmed That the Prophecies of Christ Given in Scripture Are More Certain Proof Than Eyewitnesses of His Contemporaries. Moses Wrote the Law; Your Approach to the Ten Commandments Will Determine Which Way You Go. The Commandments Are a Manifestation of The Lord Jesus Christ. The Ten Commandments Will Not Save You, But the Savior Whom They Reveal Can.

"No Fishing"
-audio mp3-
Barry McDonald 01/14/2024 (SM) Micah 7:18-20
Colossians 2:13-14
The Common Denominator Between the Scriptures from Micah and Colossians Is What the Lord Does with Sins That He Has Forgiven. Because We Do Not Forget Like God Does, Satan Will Use Our Past Against Us and "Take Us Fishing" for Sins That Have Already Been Blotted Out By the Lord. When We Are Drawn to Dwell on Past Mistakes -- Remember: No Trespassing and No Fishing.
But Through Him
-audio mp3-
Ronnie Crain 01/14/2024 (SN) John 1:7 People Without God Have No Power To Resist Being Overcome By Sin. But Through Him--The Word of God and the Power of God (the Only Way)--The Believer Is Saved for Life Eternal and Saved From a Life Wasted Even Now. Marvelous Examples from the Lives of Renown Missionaries.
Stone Throwers Versus Restorers
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 01/07/2024 (SM) Galatians 6:1-8 Tearing Someone Down (Stone Throwing) Is Easier Than Building Back (Restoring). People Who Need Restoring May: Have a Broken Life, Shipwrecked Faith, Are Running from God, Confused, or Are Finished. In Order To Be a Restorer: (1) One Must Be Accepted by the Disheartened as Genuine; (2) One Must Have Empathy; (3) One Must Be Conscious of Grace Versus Law; (4) One Must Be Patient; and (5) One Must Be There.
Rebuke to the Church of Ephesus
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 01/07/2024 (SN) Revelation 2:1-4 Ephesus Was Commended for the Things They Did Right, Doctrinally. But the Single Rebuke That Jesus Had For Them--That They Had Left Their First Love [for Him]--Was So Serious That Jesus Warned Them: If They Didn't Repent of That, He Would Remove Their Candlestick Out of His Place. And, Anymore--There Is No Church at Ephesus. So, Let Us Examine Ourselves in Temple Baptist Church--That We Do Not Fail to Actively and Persistently Love the Lord Our God Who Has Ardently Loved Us First.

Ground Zero
-audio mp3-
Barry McDonald 12/31/2023 (SM) Mark 5:21-34 An Unclean Woman Had the Faith To Touch the Hem of Jesus' Garment as Her Last Chance To Be Healed. Jesus Felt Power and Virtue Go Out as He Was Touched By A Sinner. When We Are At Ground Zero, It Brings Humility and Also Means He Is Within Reach.
Sought After God
-audio mp3-
Roger Lee 12/31/2023 (SN) II Chronicles 26:1-2 When Uz-zi'ah Stepped Into His Father's Place as King of Judah, He Sought After God and Set Everything In Place to Protect Judah and Jerusalem -- Until His Success Got to Him, and He Overstepped His Office. God Always Blesses Those Who Seek Him. We Must Be Led By the Holy Spirit of the Living God and Continue to Seek His Face.
Blessed Mary
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 12/24/2023 (SM) Luke 1:26-35 The Virgin Birth Is Essential To Our Faith As Mary Is the Mother of the Son of Man. Mary Accepted the Responsibility and Blessedness That Was Bestowed Upon Her. Then Came the Time When She Needed To Know Jesus Only As Her Savior. It Is Important to Remember: (1) Mary Is Not the Queen of Heaven, (2) She Is Not Our Mediator, and (3) She Is Not the Mother of God.

Plea To Let Jesus Into Your Heart
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 12/17/2023 (SM) Luke 1:26-38 The Annunciation to the Virgin Mary Foretold the Coming of a Saviour That Would Save the Sins of His People. Hell Is a Just Reward For People Like Herod the Great; and Present-Day America Is In a Free Fall For the Same Fate. Salvation Is Nothing Without the Lord Jesus Christ; but We Must First Believe From Our Heart; Which Brings Along Repentance and Humility. If We Are Truly Born-Again There Is A Change In Our Heart and Our Life.

Charles Lawson 12/10/2023 (SM) Proverbs 8:22-31 The Whole of God's Plan for Mankind Was Present with Him from Everlasting to Everlasting. Truth Is Written Down in Scripture, and Truth Is the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ. To Believe the Truth Is to Believe and Receive the Person--It Is to Be Born Again. It Is Available to All -- and Is Received by Some of the Most Unlikely People Imaginable.
The Word of God Answers All Questions, Spoken and Unspoken
-audio mp3-
Roger Lee 12/10/2023 (SN) Luke 7:36-39 The Pharisee Simon Was Appalled That a Woman, a Known Sinner, Approached and Touched His Guest, Jesus; But Jesus Answered His Host's Unspoken Challenge with the Story of the Creditor and the Two Debtors. Then He Rounded Out the Visit by Forgiving the Woman Her Sins and Sending Her on with Reassurance and the Blessing, "Go in Peace."
The Suffering Messiah
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 12/03/2023 (SM) Genesis 50:15-21 Multiple Prophecies Point to the Lord Coming Back to Deal With Israel; Meeting Them Face-to-Face in the Wilderness as the New Covenant Is Not Fulfilled Without the Jews. You Know You Have the True Christ If You Believe: (1) God Opened Heaven 2,000 Years Ago and Lived Among Men In the Flesh; (2) He Lived a Sinless, Perfect Life; (3) He Died on the Cross and Rose From the Dead On the Third Day; and (4) Once You Accepted Him, You Changed.

Barry McDonald 12/03/2023 (SN) Genesis 24:1-11 The Story of Abraham's Servant Searching Out a Bride For Isaac Shows Many Typologies: Abraham Is a Type of God the Father; Isaac Is a Type of the Lord Jesus Christ; the Unnamed Servant Is a Type of the Holy Spirit of God; and Rebecca Is a Type of the Body of Christ [Church].

Two Great Lights
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 11/26/2023 (SM) II Peter 3:16 There Are Two Lights We Encounter; the Light of Salvation and the Light of Fellowship. The Light Brings Us To God; but If We Justify the Life We Are Living We Are Walking in Darkness. Job Came Out of His Trials On the Better End and When We Go Through a Storm the Lord Teaches Us Lessons Along the Way.
Walk Worthy of Your Calling
-audio mp3-
Lucas Hickman 11/26/2023 (SN) Ephesians 4:1 Three Classes of Baptist Churches: One Extreme, the Other Extreme, and Old Path in the Middle: the KJV Stait Way. Some of Those Churches Give Up Power for Popularity. They Lose Feelings, They Lose Convictions--They Knock Down Boundaries Bit by Bit. We Love Ourselves and We Have Lying Tongues. So, Are You in Tune with the Holy Spirit? It's the Only Way to Have Power: Be Empty of This World to Be Filled with Him.
Love and Prayer
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 11/19/2023 (SM) Luke 22:20 We Have the Image of God and the Capacity For Love and Prayer. Worship Arises From Inside the Soul and Unlike Angels; We Had the Blood of Christ Applied and Worship God Because We Are Redeemed. Do You Have A Real Love For God?
A Difficult Cross to Bear
-audio mp3-
Keith Shown 11/19/2023 (SN) Mark 15:16-22 Simon, A Cyrenian, Was Compelled To Bear the Cross of Jesus Before His Crucifixion. When We Are Given A Difficult Cross to Bear: (1) It Is Not By Accident, (2) Our Testimony Will Affect Those Around Us, (3) The Lord Will Give Us Strength to Bear It, and (4) He Will Help Bear It With Us.
Get Thee Behind Me, Satan
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 11/12/2023 (SM) Matthew 16:13-23 Can A Christian Be Demon Possessed? Born-Again Believers Have Two-Natures, the Old Man (Flesh) and the New Man (Spirit) Which Are in Constant Battle with Each Other. Satan Can Take Control of the Mind and Fill the Heart. Our Power Is in the Spirit and It Is the Spirit of the Living God That Breaks Us from Sin. We Must Fellowship with God to Live for Him as We Cannot Search Our Own Heart or Soul.
The Work of the Holy Spirit
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 11/12/2023 (SN) John 16:8 Jesus Tells His Disciples That He Will Go Away and the Comforter Would Come; and "When He Is Come, He Will Reprove the World of Sin, and of Righteousness, and of Judgment."--And What All That Does Mean; and How It Is That God Spares His People from Blasphemy Against the Holy Ghost. And How We Can Live for God [Only by Fellowship with Him]. Concludes with Two of the Biggest Sins and One of Best Things God Gives.
The Lord Jesus Christ: The Almighty
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 11/05/2023 (SM) Revelation 1:1-8 The Lord Jesus Christ is Referenced in Revelation As Many Things; Particularly the Lamb of God. All Things Are Through the Lamb As He Is the God's Answer to Mankind. This World Is Being Prepared to Worship the Anti-Christ. Until Jesus Returns to Overcome the Devil, Satan Craves Worship and Can Deceive the World Into Idolizing Him.

If You'll Examine Christ Jesus
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 10/29/2023 (SM) Matthew 26:20-25 When The Multitudes or the Followers or the Twelve Disciples of Christ Encountered Something Inscrutable [to Them] in His Ministry, They Deserted Him. However, When He Was Examined Directly by People from Herod to Pilate, None Could Find Any Fault in Him. We Need to Take Responsibility for Our Choices: Like the Thief on the Cross, Receive the Word of God; Regardless of How You've Lived -- Choose to Not Die as a Fool.
Grace
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 10/29/2023 (SN) Exodus 34:1-9 To Moses, God Told His Name and Who He Was and Is and Always Will Be (Because He Changes Not). God Is Ever Gracious. Elements of Grace: Mercy, Longsuffering, Forgiveness, Benefaction ... and Reconciliation. God, on His Part, Has Removed the Obstacles Separating Him from Mankind. Now It Is the Individual's Part to Get a Proper Attitude Toward God That They Can be Reconciled to Him. Whatever Troubles You, Just Lay It All Out Before God..

Charles Lawson 10/22/2023 (SM) Matthew 24:1-21 Overview of World Events Including a Great Reset of the World's Economy and China's Desire For World Leadership Under Their Hegemony. As Seen in WWI, An Apparently Unrelated Chain of Events Could Spark the Beginning of WWIII. Significantly, Too, Is the Muslim Conviction That Worldwide Chaos Is Necessary to Usher In the Second Coming of Their Mahdi.
Being in the Will of Christ

Lucas Hickman 10/22/2023 (SN) I Peter 4:1-4 Accepting God's Will for Our Life Brings Rejection from the World and Also Tests Our Character. We Have a Responsibility to Do All Things to Glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and Educate Ourselves on Our Beliefs So We Can Defend Our Faith. No Matter the Highs or the Lows, We Ought to Show Great Faith and Rejoice.
The Wind in the Garden of God

Charles Lawson 10/15/2023 (SM) Song of Solomon 4:15-16 The Picture of the Threshing Floor and the Role of the Wind (the Holy Spirit) in Carrying Off the Chaff to Identify the Grain - This Contrast with Satan's Method of Troubling People: "Sifting," Which Destroys Both Parts, Bad and Good. Also, the Significance of the Direction of the Wind. And Reassurance That Everything God Purges from You/Your Life, He Replaces It with the Lord Jesus Christ. To Get Somewhere with God, Be Honest with Him (--Honest with Yourself).
The Fall of Man Sets the Stage for the Son of Man
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 10/15/2023 (SN) Genesis 3:14-21 The Study of the Fall of Man Sets the Stage for the Redemption of Man Which Sets the Stage for the Redeemer. So, What Does an Intelligent, Educated Jew Say About Jesus? Or What Might a Karaite Jew Say of Jesus? It All Depends Upon the Authority They Use. Likewise the Muslims. Most Blessedly, by the Authority of Our Bible, We Christians Can Plainly See Him Revealed as Our Precious Lord and Saviour.
The Lord That Sees and Provides
-audio mp3-
Cody Shew 10/08/2023 (SM) Genesis 22:9-14 Abraham's Sacrifice of Isaac Reveals God's Name of Jehovah-jireh; One Who Sees and Provides. The Purpose to Sacrifice Isaac Was to Test Abraham's Faith, the Provision Was That God Himself Will Always Furnish What Is Necessary. The Place Was Significant to Abraham, and Also to David and Solomon, and Was the Site of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. God Saw and Remedied Our Needs, and Before Anything Was -- God Was.
Encouraging Yourself in the Lord
-audio mp3-
Cody Shew 10/08/2023 (SN) I Samuel 30:1-6 David Was Going Through a Time When He Had No Family, No Friends, and No Fellowship. Instead of Quitting, David Mused and Mediated on Where God Found Him; on the Victories God Gave Him; and on God's Faithfulness Even In Spite of David's Foolishness. When David Encouraged Himself in the Lord His God, He Started to Remember Who God Is: the Supreme One Who Has Need of Nothing Else.
Crisis of Faith
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 10/01/2023 (SM) Numbers 21:4 If We Get Down in Discouragement We Can: Pray the Wrong Prayer, Say the Wrong Thing, Think the Wrong Thing, Do the Wrong Thing, See the Wrong Thing, Go to the Wrong Place, and Have the Wrong Spirit. Our Understanding of the Lord Jesus Christ Is Progressive. He Is the Only One Who Can Feed Our Soul. The World Is Dying, and We [Born-Again Christians] as Able Ministers of Gospel Should Aim to Reach All Generations.

-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 09/24/2023 (SN) Ephesians 4:21-23 Only Those Who Are Born-Again Have A Constant Battle Between Two Natures: the Old Man and the New Man. The Flesh is Vile in Nature and it Lusts after the Spirit to Gain Control of the Mind. How You Live Is Important as It Manifests the Spirit You Live In. Pastor Counsels Us to: (1) Walk In Fellowship; (2) Renew Your Mind; (3) Learn the Power of Wicked Spirits; (4) Learn the Power of the Blood; (5) Learn the Power of Sin; and (6) Consider Thyself Also.

Roc Collins 09/17/2023 (SM) Romans 10:1-4 In This Lost World: We Must Be Burdened Enough to Pray for the Lost, We Must See the Lost World For What They Are as They Create Their Own Righteousness, and We Must Point Them Towards Jesus. Man Alone Is Not Righteous and Under the Law It Acted As A Mirror to Show How Unrighteous Man Is. Take Every Opportunity to Tell Someone About Jesus: Not with Condemnation but Loving Them to Jesus.
When Jesus Comes to Church
-audio mp3-
Roc Collins 09/17/2023 (SN) Mark 1:21-28 Whenever Jesus Entered a Town, He Went into the Synagogue. When Jesus Comes to Church: (1) He Teaches with Authority; (2) Demons Don't Like It; (3) Deliverance Is Available; and (4) They Were All Amazed.
The Unveiling

Charles Lawson 09/10/2023 (SM) Revelation 1:1-6 In the Book of Revelation, Jesus Christ Reveals the Events in the Fullness of the Times of the Gentiles -and- Jesus Christ Himself Is Revealed as He Who Is in the Midst of the Churches, as the Lamb of God, and as the Lord of Lords. Contrast the Lord Jesus Christ with the Antichrist; and Take Note of the Spirit That Can Animate AI Such as ChatGPT, Just Like It Can a Ouija Board.
The Lamb of God
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 09/10/2023 (SN) Revelation 5:1-10 In This Chapter of Revelation, the Lord Jesus Christ is Described as the Lion of the Tribe of Juda and Also as a Lamb as it Had Been Slained. Only the Lamb of God is Qualified to Open the Book with the Seven Seals Which Will Unleash Judgement on the Earth. The Shedding of Innocent Lamb's Blood is a Theme Throughout the Bible. In Genesis Paradise is Lost, But in Revelation Paradise is Regained.
Decisions We Make Are Eternal
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 09/03/2023 (SM) Deuteronomy 10:12-15 The Responsibility of Man Towards God in the Old Testament Dispensation Was to Fear God by Keeping His Commandments the Best They Could. Starting in the New Testament with John the Baptist, Repentance Becomes Necessary for the Kingdom of Heaven as He Was Preparing Them for the Dispensation of Grace by Faith in the Finished Work of Christ Jesus. The Meeting Between Saul of Tarsus and Jesus Christ on the Road to Damascus Shows That Jesus Can Save An Unlikely One of His Choosing Against All Natural Expectations.

Galatians 5:24
As Our Lord Jesus Christ, Himself Innocent of Sin But Hanging on the Cross for All Others' Sake, Yet He Showed Forgiveness for All Those Who Offended and Fervor for Others Above What You're Feeling. Jesus Suffered on the Cross Till It Was Finished: Neither Should We Be Quitters nor Shy of Any Inconvenience.

-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 08/27/2023 (SM) Proverbs 19:3 There Are a Myriads of Examples in the Bible of God's People Who Got Mad at Him; All While He Was Preparing Them for Something Bigger. Self-Pity and Mis-answered Prayers Are Not the Only Reasons People Get Mad at God: Sometimes Folks Will Get Mad Because Someone Else Gets Blessed or Because They Are Made to Reap What They've Sown and Then Resent God's Judgement. When You Get Mad, Just Get Over Yourself and Run Back to God.
The All-Knowing God
-audio mp3-
Cody Jones 08/27/2023 (SN) Psalm 139:1-10 The Omnipotent, Omniscient, and Omnipresent God is Just, Longsuffering, Merciful, and Also the God of Wrath. He Knows Mankind's Inner Workings, Outward Goings; and He Knows Those That Are His Own. Today's World Has No Regard for God as it is Under a Strong Delusion from Satan. "The Harvest Truly is Plenteous, but the Labourers are Few."
A Friend of Sinners
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 08/20/2023 (SM) Luke 7:18-35 The Pharisees Thought it Was a Failing That the Lord Jesus Christ is the Friend of Sinners. Jesus Knows and Acknowledges Each and Every Person Before We Ever Know Him, and He Seeks Out Those Who Are Lost. To Walk in Communion with God the Son and God the Father We Must Walk in Fellowship and the Light of the Holy Spirit: We Must Lean Totally Upon Our Saviour and Not At All On Ourselves.

Artificial Intelligence and the Anti-Christ
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 07/30/2023 (SM) Daniel 12:1-4 Not Only Did One of the Creators of Artificial Intelligence Warns Us That It Can Outpace Us in as Little as Five Years, Daniel Also Warned Us About the Increase in Knowledge. Artificial Intelligence Utilizes Surveillance and Is Not Far from Knowing Everything About Us, Which Could Be Used in the Anti-Christ's World as the Uses Are Endless. AI Is Not Coming; It Is Already Here, and It Is Time to Wake Up.
A Greater Than Solomon Is Here

Charles Lawson 07/30/2023 (SN) Matthew 12:42 Parables Throughout the Book of Matthew Directly Relate to the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. Jesus' Proclamation of Being Greater Than Solomon Was Met with Push Back Due to Many Reasons; But We Know Jesus, Being God Manifested in Flesh, Is Greater. Prayer Is Our Gift from God with Jesus as Our Intercessor, and Talking to God Daily Will Change Our Lives.

Greg Lentz 07/23/2023 (SM) Luke 15:11-12 Chapter 15 of Luke Has Multiple Parables, Including the Parable of the Lost Son. Satan and the World Both Will Use Us As Long As We Have Something to Give; But Once We Get to the End of That Journey, We Must Have a God-Awakening Moment. Much Like the Father When the Son Returned; Jesus Has an Everlasting Love For Us and Will Meet Us Where We Are.

Greg Lentz 07/23/2023 (SN) Acts 27:15-25 All Too Many Folk, in the Midst of the Tempest, Behave as the Lost Person Does: They Quit ["Let Her Drive"]; Lighten the Ship [Discard What They Need]; and Live in Despair [All Hope Taken Away]. Paul--in the Middle of the Same Storm as They--Told Them to Be of Good Cheer (He Had Good News from the Lord). Basic Storm Facts Reviewed and the Consolation: the Presence of Jesus, a Purpose for the Storm, and Promises from His Word.

-audio mp3-
Barry McDonald 07/16/2023 (SN) II Timothy 4:1-12 Paul Knew That His Time Left on Earth Was Short, So He Made Occasion to Write to His Son in the Faith, to Advise Him and Warn Him. Paul Told Timothy Frankly That Serving in the Ministry Takes a Toll, But He Also Spoke of Where He Has Finished Well and Can Look Forward to a Reward. In Scriptural and in Anecdotal Jargon, Paul Charges Timothy-- Keep a Hold of Your Shield, Don't Drop the Ball!

Heath Williams 07/09/2023 (SM) II Kings 5:9-14 Na'a-man, Captain of the Host of the King of Syria, Gets Stricken with Leprosy, but We See the God-Side: Using People in His Life to Send Him to Israel to Meet with Elisha. We See in Na'a-man a Powerful Man with a Problem; When He Arrives in Israel, We See a Proud Man with the Wrong Perceptions as His Pride Prevents Him From Wanting to Complete the Final Thirty-Two Miles. What Could Thirty-Two Miles Cost You?

Charles Lawson 07/02/2023 (SM) Jeremiah 23:5-6 Four Prophetic Statements About the Branch Correspond to the Four Gospels of the New Testament: The Righteous Branch (Matthew), The Servant Branch (Mark), The Branch of the Man (Luke), and the Branch of the Lord (John). God is Eternal in the Present Tense and Only He Can Open a Door That Has Been Shut; As He Did With the Davidic Kingdom Line. Common Insolent Acts Express the Depravity Rampant in Today's Society.

Dan Martin 05/28/2023 (SN) Genesis 13:8-13
II Peter 2:6-8
Much Like Lot When He Settled in Sodom and Gomorrah, Modern-Day Churches Are Becoming Desensitized to The World. When We Start Becoming Desensitized We Compromise On Our Stand of Separation; Give Up Our Children to the World; Lose Our Testimony Before Our Family; Lose Our Vision For Souls; and Begin to Linger On Whether the Pleasures of Sin Outweigh the Consequences. We Are Challenged to Stand and Not to Compromise.
The Thick Darkness
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 05/21/2023 (SM) Genesis 2:8-9 The Reason God Put Us Here Is to Have Communion with Him. Our Relationship with God is Built on Who We Are with God and What He is to Us. God Dwells in the Thick Darkness When We Feel Lost and Alone. There is No Need to Hide or Run But to Walk with Him. Analogy Using the Gardens of Eden and Gethsemane.

The Hebrew Roots Movement
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 05/07/2023 (SN) Deuteronomy 13:4-11 Understanding the Recent Hebrew Roots Movement Which Urges a Return to First Century Judaism. They Forget That the Blessings of Abraham Are Come Through the Promise, and the Law ("Added Later Because of Transgressions") Did Not Come Until Moses - 500 years later. In the Least, the HRM Takes Total Focus From Jesus Christ (Who is Our Passover, Our All-in-All). In Greater Portions, It Inserts Weak and Beggarly Elements That Debase the Simplicity of the Gospel of the Grace of God, Even As First-Century Judaizers Sought to Do.

Dean McNeese 03/26/2023 (SM) Hebrews 6:1 Using the Examples of Four Notable Men Already Mentioned Earlier in the Book of Hebrews--Abraham, Moses, David, and Aaron--We See That They Did "Go On" to Perfection, to Completion, to Maturity Rather Than Getting Done In, by Sins of Youth or Bitterness or Failure.

Dean McNeese 03/26/2023 (SN) Hebrews 13:1 Jacob and David are Both Pictures of Christ's Readiness and Willingness to Forgive Us Of Our Sins. Just As Christ Shows Forgiveness to His Children, We Must Be Willing to Forgive Our Brothers and Sisters in Christ When They Have Wronged Us.

Charles Lawson 03/19/2023 (SM) Matthew 16:16-17 Christ Jesus Asked His Disciples, "Who Do You Say That I Am?" to Mark What Revelation They Had Received of the Father.

Sam Ensor 03/05/2023 (SN) Psalm 39:1-4

When David Was Up in Years and Tired, He Asked of God About the "Measure of His Days" Which Was Actually Asking, What Did His Life Add Up To? What Was the Purpose of It? And We'd Do Well to Ponder, Too: Do We Acquit Ourselves Properly Before God? Are We Making a Difference in the Lives of Others?

Foundation For the Antichrist
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 02/26/2023 (SM) Revelation 13:1-4 The Beast of Revelation 13 Is the Antichrist of the End Times Although Antichrists Have Been In All Ages. Agenda 2030, Mentioned by the Prime Minister of Hungary, Lays Out the Blueprint For World Government and Tyranny - Which Neatly Fulfills Prophecy Laid Out in the Bible. All This Leads to the Second Coming of Christ, but It Is Not Fixed in Time: It Is Conditional and Only the Father Knows When.

Some Things Hard To Be Understood

The Man Phillip and His Ministry

Charles Lawson 02/12/2023 (SN) Acts 21:8 Phillip Was One of the Seven Chosen in the Early Jerusalem Church to Serve as Deacon. Phillip Preached, and He Was Used Mightily of God as an Evangelist in Samaria.

Belief In A Person
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 01/29/2023 (SM) John 2:1-11 The Gospel of John Is Different from the Other Gospels, for It Is Written Explicitly That "Ye Might Believe." In the Old Testament Law, There Was Grace and Truth and Redemption and Mercy. In the New Testament [in John] Is Introduced a New Factor: That All These Elements Are Now in a Person--the Lord Jesus Christ. And, If Miracles--Even Someone Rising from the Dead--Does Not Convince You--Read the Word of God, for It Is Alive, and It Can Be Taken Into Your Soul and Really Make the Difference.

-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 01/29/2023 (SN) Acts 16:30-31 "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and Thou Shalt Be Saved." But, What Does It Mean "to Believe"? Questions About the Saving of the Thief on the Cross Help Us Cut Away the Clutter and Come to the Pith. So, Simply Put: That Thief Put His Trust in What Jesus Said, and He Was Satisfied; He Said Nothing More. How We Come by Assurance of Our Salvation (Chiefly by Knowing the Lord Jesus).

Apostle Paul and The Law

Charles Lawson 11/13/2022 (SM) I Corinthians 15:1-8 Central to the Gospel Is the Resurrection of Christ from the Dead; and If Christ Be Not Risen--Preaching Is in Vain, You're Still in Your Sins. The Resurrection of Christ Proves--God Is [Exists], Christ Is Who He Claims to Be, He Is the Saviour of the World, and That He Gives Life. List of Post Resurrection Appearances.

Rightly Understanding The Bible
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 10/23/2022 (SM) Isaiah 61:1-3 To Rightly Understand The Bible Involves Appropriate Interpretation and Correct Application. A Shining Example of This Is When Jesus Read Only So Much of Isaiah Chapter 61. Similarly, Isaiah 62 and 63 Are Put in Their Proper Settings; and the "Shout of The Lord, the Voice of the Archangel, and the Sound of the Trumpet of God" Correlated to Each of the Three Groups of People Addressed in Scripture--The Church, the Jew/the House of Israel, and the Gentiles at Large.

The Peace of God
-audio mp3-
Sam Ensor 10/23/2022 (SN)

Philippians 4:6-9

Peace Is Not, as World Thinks, the Absence of Conflict. Conflict Abounds, and Spiritual and Moral Warfare Is an Instrument Satan Uses to Spread Hopelessness So That God's People Give Up Spreading the Gospel. But in the Midst of All This Turmoil, You Can Know the Peace of God--But Only After You First Know Peace with God. The Inspiration al Story and Witness of H.G. Spafford.

A Spiritual Confrontation
-audio mp3-

The Simplicity of the Gospel of Jesus Christ
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 10/09/2022 (SN)

I Corinthians 15:1-8
Acts 1:4-5

Most Succinct Summation of the Gospel Is Declared in First Corinthians: Speaking of Jesus' Death, Burial, and Resurrection "According to the Scriptures." While Browsing the Book of Acts from Start to End, We See How This Same Gospel Developed: Always Centered on the Person of Jesus Christ; Different Components Addressed or Refocused. The Positive Result for the Individual? A Personal Testimony.

Contemporaries of Jesus, Presages of Today

Charles Lawson 09/25/2022 (SM) John 18:29 Secular Authorities Have Historically Been Indifferent to Religion.

Now, Within the Past Twenty Years, Religious Tributes Are Conspicuously Anti-Christian: Kali on the Empire State Building, Shiva at the Hadron Collider, No-One's-Sure-What at the Gotthard Base Tunnel Opening. Finally, to Understand "Pisteuo"--Translated "Believe" in Both John 3:16 and James 2:19.
What Must We Do To Be Saved
-audio mp3-
Charles Lawson 09/25/2022 (SN)

Acts 16:30-31
Luke 23:38-43

There Is a Common Misconception that Baptism is Necessary to Become Saved. Looking at the Story of the Thief on the Cross Who Believed in Jesus and Heaven, We See No Baptism Take Place. Yet Jesus Saved His Soul. The Lord Jesus Christ Is Salvation, and to Believe in Him and Trust in Him With Our Heart is the Key to Eternal Life.

Lost Sight of God

Tom Berry 09/18/2022 (SN) II Timothy 3:1-11

These are Perilous Times--NOT Merely "Difficult"! When Men Lose Sight of God, They Go Crazy; and From There, They Will Do Whatever's Right in Their Own Eyes. Church, Preach Redemption Only by the Precious Blood of Christ Jesus. And People, Don't Dare Gamble with Your Eternity: Rather, Be Reconciled to God the [Only] Way He Told in His Word--by His Grace Through Your Faith in Jesus' Sacrificial Death Which Paid the Penalty for Your [for All, for Everybody's] Sin.

Dewey Caldwell 10/17/2021 (SN) Luke 19:41-44 Early in Genesis, God Warns That His Spirit Shall Not Always Strive With Man. "Strive" Means to Plead. It Also Means to Come by Force. Scripture Offers Invitation After Invitation; Yet in the Ear-Tickling Churches of Our Age, It Is Estimated That as Many as 77% of Those People Are Not Born Again.

Charles Lawson 06/27/2021 (SM) Daniel 2:31-35 Observations of Events and Reactions Over the Past 15 Months Lend Themselves to a Realistic Projection of the Scenario Where Even the Very Elect Could be Deceived (Manipulated and Coerced).
