Time and Chance

Are converted Christians the helpless victims of time and chance? Do true Christians die prematurely, because they were just in the wrong place at the wrong time? Did Solomon teach, in Ecclesiastes 9:11, that true Christians are subject to and dependent on time and chance? Some have taught this wrong concept over the years. In doing so, they have undermined the faith of Christians in the mighty and powerful hand of God. The Bible teaches very clearly that Christians do not die because of time and chance. Rather, when a Christian dies, it is because God decided that it was time for him or her to die. God is in total control. Many Scriptures prove this without a doubt.

The Trinity and the Holy Spirit

The doctrine of the “Trinity” and the Holy Spirit as it is encompassed within the “Trinity concept” is not a minor issue, as it relates to the Christian world. In fact, it reflects the extent to which mankind will go in his effort to walk contrary to the Ways of God.

How Will It Be As God

Those called by God strive to receive or use God’s Spirit to meet our ultimate goal and destiny — to become a Spirit being — a God being in the Family of God. But what then? What does it mean? Do we have any idea what it will be like to be God? Do we really know what God has in store for us? Do we understand why we need to strive — with the help of God’s Spirit — to become God? Or, are our action motivated by the fear what will happen to us if we don’t make it into the Kingdom?

We will notice in this sermon marvelous Scriptures revealing to us the life of God — the very life that we will share. How does God live? What does He do? Once we know, we will also know what really awaits us — and why all of our sufferings today, and the forsaking of things that are bad for us, are indeed worthwhile.

How Does God View His People, Today

How Free Are We

In the eighth chapter of the book of John, Jesus Christ made several profound statements, when discussing spiritual matters with certain Jews who believed in Him. He told them that believing in Christ not enough. Rather, we must abide in His words, that is, we must obey Him. If we do, we shall know the truth, and the truth will make us free. Other Scriptures show that Jesus Christ must give us true freedom, but He will only do so, if we accept and live God’s truth. We must continuously repent of wrong habits and conduct, and we must grow in the faith of God. True repentance and true belief motivate us to action. Christ said that we, who know the truth, are blessed when we do it.

Where Are We Going

When the Children of Israel left Egypt, they thought they understood where they were going. Yet forty years later, they still had not entered the “promised land.” Of those adults who departed from Egypt on that “night to be much observed,” only two actually entered into the land. This should provide food for thought for God’s people today, as Satan continues to attack the Church of God.

A Tale of Two Brothers

This sermon discusses the lives of two brothers — Esau and Jacob, sons of Isaac and Rebekah. They were twins. They impacted humanity — in fact, today’s problems in the Middle East and in the Western world can only be fully understood when we appreciate what happened in the lives of these two brothers thousands of years ago. Jacob had been preordained to be called by God and to receive the birthright. His wrong choices, however, and his refusal to respond to God’s calling earlier in his life caused many problems for him and others. At the same time, Esau’s conduct serves as a perpetual warning for us not to take our calling lightly.
