Repentance and Salvation, 2 Pet 3:9

Is repentance necessary for salvation?  Yes.  There is no question that the Lord demands repentance.  In 2 Peter 3:9, we find that the Lord “is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing to any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.”  When Jesus described one of the purposes of his earthly ministry, he said, “I […]

Is Israel the Church? Rom 2:28-29

Is Israel the Church?  No.  Have you ever had anyone teach you or tell you that Israel is the Church?  The idea is that God began dealing with the Jews in Israel in the Old Testament, and continued dealing with them until the first coming of Christ.  Then, after the crucifixion, the church replaced Israel.  […]

Making Fishermen, Matt 4:19

In Matt 4:19, Jesus said to Peter and Andrew, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”  When we read about the early lives of Peter, Andrew, James and John, the disciples of Jesus, we see the process of making fishermen.  We’ll study the Lord’s method of making fishermen in hopes of gleaning […]

Good Music, Job 38:6-7

Is there good music in the Bible?  Yes! In the Bible, you find two different “lines” of music, throughout.  Good music comes from the Lord and bad music comes from the devil.  In the prior broadcast, we studied the “bad” line of music from the devil.  This week, we will concentrate on good music from […]

Bad Music, Ezek 28:13

Is there really bad music in the Bible?  Yes. In the Bible, you find two different “lines” of music, throughout.  One line comes from the Lord even before creation and it continues all the way out into eternity.  The other line comes from the devil.  The devil’s line was also here before creation.  However, after […]

The Throne of Grace, Heb 4:15-16 – Aug 16, 2026

This sermon is on the throne of grace.   Thankfully, the throne of grace is not like other thrones of God with which we are familiar.  The white throne, for instance, includes a judgment of sinners who are cast into the lake of fire.  The judgment seat of Christ includes a fire that burns up […]

Faith Is The Substance, Heb 11:1 – Aug 16, 2026

Heb 11:1 says, “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen”. Substance is the essential part, the main or the material part; something real and not imaginary. Evidence is the outward sign; something that furnishes proof. Faith is the substance. Faith that is substance, that is evidence: Believes […]

Their Nakedness, Gen 3:7-13 – Aug 16, 2026

In Gen 3:7-13, we will study what happened to Adam and Eve when they saw their nakedness, after eating the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. When Adam and Eve didn’t know they were naked, they were not ashamed, Gen 2:25.  They were like little kids.  But once they had […]

Spiritual Depression, III, 2 Cor 10:5

Spiritual Depression, II, Prov 16:18

We began a short series on spiritual depression in the prior broadcast.  Today, we will continue to study some Biblical reasons for and solutions to spiritual depression.   In many cases, depression is something you can address spiritually rather than chemically, through anti-depressants.  You can often make changes in your spiritual life that will improve […]
