LESSONS FROM JONAH’S DISOBEDIENCE -- Jonah 1:1-3

Preach The Word ·

2024/10/06

No doubt we are all familiar with Jonah and his encounter with the “great fish.” We have heard it from our childhood. Jesus referred to it (“legitimizing” the account) in speaking of His coming death, burial, and resurrection. Some would call Jonah a Zionist. We would call him a patriot. He loved Israel! He loved his land so much that he wanted to see her enemies destroyed. So, when God told Jonah to go and preach a message of repentance to Nineveh, the prophet rebelled and tried to get as far away

JESUS DID NOT JUST “DIE!” - HE WAS SLAUGHTERED --...

Preach The Word ·

2024/09/29

Each week it is my prayer that God would lead me to a message that He can use to touch our hearts, draw us closer to Him, and make us better servants of our Lord. I like simplicity. Things that are difficult or complicated often “boggle” my mind. But, I fear that we often oversimplify the sacrificial death of the Lord Jesus Christ. I have heard preachers say, and I have said many times, “Jesus bled and died for us.” Well, while that is true, it does not fully set forth all that was involved in His

5 THINGS WE HAVE IN JESUS -- Philemon 1-6

Preach The Word ·

2024/09/22

Many people believe that the only purpose for salvation is to keep them out of hell. Because of that, once they are saved they are content. They see no other benefit in salvation and no other responsibility, in their lives, toward God. But we have been saved to serve Him - Ephesians 2:10. We are all familiar with vv. 8-9 that tell us, “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: (9) Not of works, lest any man should boast.” But vs. 10 says, “For we are

THE MAN WITH A HOLE IN HIS EAR -- Exodus 21:1-6 ;...

2024/09/15

In preparation for this message I decided to research the following question: “When did the practice of piercing ears begin?” Here is what I found. “Ear piercing practice dates back to about 5,000 years ago. Body piercings have been practiced for thousands of years and can be traced back to ancient civilizations such as Egypt, Rome, and India.” In ancient Egypt, body piercings were seen as a symbol of wealth and status." Today, in the 21st century, body piercings have become all the rage, and they

THE STRANGE CASE OF THE WITHERED SOULS -- Numbers 11:1-6

Preach The Word ·

2024/09/08

Question: Have you ever complained about the things God has provided for you? Be careful before you answer that! In Matthew 6:33 Jesus said if we will seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness first that He will “add” or provide the things listed in vs. 31 - our needs - food, drink, and clothing. But many people are dissatisfied when God only takes care of their needs. They want Him to give them their wants as well. Like a child wanting cake and ice cream for supper instead of a healthy meal, we

“WHEN SHALL THESE THINGS BE?” -- Matthew 24:32-36

Preach The Word ·

2024/09/01

The verses we are going to look at in Matthew 24 deal with events of the last days which lead up to the time of tribulation that is to come upon this earth. We know from Daniel 9:24 that 70 seven year periods (or 70 weeks of years) were determined upon the Jews: “. . . to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.” And he gives us a time

THE BEGINNING OF THE END -- II Thessalonians 1:3-10

Preach The Word ·

2024/08/25

Someone once said, “Everybody talks about the weather, but nobody does anything about it.” I believe that is the way most people are about the Second Coming of Christ. People talk about it. They say things like, “It’s got to be close.” Or, “I don’t see how God can wait much longer before Jesus returns, etc.”? But few “do anything about it.” (What do I mean?) If you knew that Jesus were going to come today at 3 p.m. today is there anyone you would warn, anyone you would witness to? Any change you

IF WE HAD REAL REVIVAL -- II Chronicles 28:19-25, 27...

Preach The Word ·

2024/08/18

In vv. 24-25 of our text Ahaz is king. The Scripture says he “did not that which was right in the sight of the Lord . . . ” He made images for Baalim, burned his children in the fire, and sacrificed and burned incense in the high places. When God brought chastisement on Judah, Ahaz “did . . . trespass yet more against the Lord.” In vs. 21 he took a portion out of the house of the Lord and gave it to the king of Assyria. In vs. 23 we see that he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus and said “Because

THE MARKS OF A CHURCH ON FIRE FOR GOD -- Acts 2:1-4

Preach The Word ·

2024/08/11

Without a doubt the church at Jerusalem, in the first few chapters of Acts, appears as a church that is on fire for God, for the Lord Jesus Christ. They were active and doing the things the Lord had commanded. And, they were doing them in spite of opposition and persecution from those that many looked upon as the “religious authority” of the day. Because of their obedience and faithfulness, the Lord was adding “to the church daily such as should be saved.” If there was ever a time when the Lord’s

KEEPING THE WONDER IN OUR WORSHIP -- Malachi 1:6-14

Preach The Word ·

2024/08/04

By the time we get to the book of Malachi, worship in Israel had been so corrupted that it had become, at best a mere habit and at worst a drudgery. Look at their assessment of it in vs. 13: “What a weariness is it!” Weariness speaks of trouble or distress. (It is from a word that means to tire, or to tire out.) See their attitude toward it, also in vs. 13: “Ye have snuffed at it.” Snuffed means “to puff in order to disesteem.” (They “turned up their noses” at it.) Vv. 7, 12 reveal their animosity

THE JETHRO PRINCIPLES -- Exodus 18:13-24

Preach The Word ·

2024/07/28

I heard the story of the preacher who told his church, “I am available to you 24 hours a day.” An older man asked, “If you are available to me and all the others in the church 24 hours a day, when will you have time to make yourself available to God? Or to your wife? Or to your family?” He continued, “If you are running 24 hours a day, you don’t have time to stop and be refilled, and we know that no one can run on empty. And if you fail to stop and be refilled, you will be of no value to me or

FOUR WAYS TO HELP DEVELOP DISCIPLES -- Acts 4:36-37

Preach The Word ·

2024/07/21

Sadly, many times in the Lord’s churches we fail to fully obey our Lord’s instruction to make disciples. I believe one of the faults of modern day evangelism is that some go out to “win souls,” but once they’ve won them, they drop them to go on to another lost person. We may lead people to Christ and even encourage them to be Scripturally baptized. We may welcome them into the church, but our responsibility DOES NOT end there . . . and, this is where we often fall short, as we fail to fully

THE CHURCH AND THE COUNTRY -- Nehemiah 1:4-11

Preach The Word ·

2024/07/14

The bulk of this message is going to come from the first chapter of Nehemiah. But I want to begin by sharing a verse of Scripture I have shared many times. It comes from Judges 2:10-11: “And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the Lord, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel. (11) And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, and served Baalim . . . " I grew up in church, and I remember:

THE DISCIPLINE OF DISCIPLES -- Ephesians 4:11-15

Preach The Word ·

2024/07/07

In these verses we see what our Lord wants, and what He expects, for and from His children. We are continuing our messages on discipleship today with a message on discipline. Now, I know when the word “discipline” is used in relation to one of the Lord’s churches, most people think of what we call “corrective discipline.” But there is another kind of discipline, and that is the discipline we are going to look at this morning. The Latin word for “discipline” comes from “discipulus” which “also

THE WORK OF A NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH - MAKING DISCIPLES...

Preach The Word ·

2024/07/01

Sadly, the true state of many modern churches is that we are satisfied to be saved, but we are not motivated to see others come to know and serve Christ as Savior and Lord. It is my humble belief that most of the Lord’s churches in the 21st century have forgotten the purpose for their existence. Too many believe that their responsibility begins and ends at coming to church a couple of times (or maybe only once) a week, pray when we can, read the Bible now and then, and live a life that is slightly

DISCIPLE OR FOLLOWER? WHICH ARE YOU? -- Luke 14:25-33

Preach The Word ·

2024/06/23

This morning we are going to consider the cost of being a true disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ. To begin, I want to ask you, “Do you consider yourself a disciple of Christ or merely a follower?” What is a disciple? A disciple is more than a follower. A follower merely likes the ideas, thoughts, and teachings of the one he is following. Sadly, many who "profess" Jesus today are merely followers, and churches count decisions, not disciples. But a disciple is a learner (DISCIPLE = a learner, a

WHY DO WE PREACH? -- Deuteronomy 31:10-12

Preach The Word ·

2024/06/16

Have you ever wondered why we gather together in this capacity each week on Sunday morning and evening and then again on Wednesday? It is because of tradition? Habit Some other reason? Is there any New Testament instruction for us to assemble together Hebrews 10:22-25 says: “Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. (23) Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for

GREAT AND MIGHTY IS THE LORD OUR GOD -- Deuteronomy...

Preach The Word ·

2024/06/09

The name “Deuteronomy” is actually the Greek Septuagint’s spelling of the fifth book of the Bible. The Hebrew name for this book is “D’varim,” which means “words,” but also “things,” “matters.” The meaning of the word “Deuteronomy” (or, “to deuteronomion”) from the Greek is “repeated law.” Deuteronomy, then, is literally a restating of the Law that was given by God through Moses. Let’s look at the history of the Israelites very briefly. God had called Abram (Abraham) to follow Him. Who and what was

AVOIDING “HO HUM” RELIGION -- Revelation 3:20-22

Preach The Word ·

2024/06/02

This is a very brief text for the message, but I believe it is of great importance. Jesus used the phrase in vs. 22 quite often in teaching during His earthly ministry, and He states it to each of the seven churches of Asia to whom He spoke in Revelation chapter 2 and 3. Now we know that here He is not referring just to that organ in our bodies by which we can detect sounds and speech. He is referring to spiritual ears. Not everyone that hears the preacher and the sermon hears the message. I

FOUR CALLS TO SOUL-WINNING -- Luke 19:1-10

Preach The Word ·

2024/05/26

Of course, this is the account of the salvation of a tax collector named Zacchaeus. I have chosen to look at this message from this point: “Four Calls To Soul-Winning.” I am sure that all of us know who Zacchaeus was. He even has a song written about him, “Zacchaeus was a wee little man . . . ” which most of us probably learned at some point in our childhood. But how much do we really know about Zacchaeus? The name “Zacchaeus” comes from a Hebrew word that meant “righteous,” or “pure.” He was a
