Sermon, "Furnace of Affliction"Refining removes the dross, increases purity, and sets the character. God applies the heat necessary to work the changes we need. (Isaiah 48:1-11) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones December 28, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "Do Not Thy Words Do Good?""Prophesy ye not, say they to them that prophesy" People have always tried to avoid God's Word, but faithfulness to a spiritual regime is more important than exercise or food. (Micah 2:1-7) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones December 21, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Bethlehem"Almost 700 years before Jesus was born it was written, "But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting." (Micah 5:2) This is clear evidence of the inspired nature of Scripture. Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones December 21, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "Immanuel"Isaiah 7:14 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones December 14, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "When I Went Into The Sanctuary"Why do wicked people seem to prosper, while people of God suffer? (The question implies no false pride. Scripture does allow us to distinguish between that which is wicked and that which is Godly.) We must evaluate prosperity through God's eyes, not by the standards of the world. (Psalm 73) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones December 10, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham: Confirmation and Compliance Attending the Covenant"Genesis 17:12-27 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones December 7, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "A Cry For Help" (Part 2)Most Christians will readily agree that life without God's help would be unbearable. No matter how sorely we are pressed, we always have recourse to God. (Psalm 28) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones December 7, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "A Cry For Help" (Part 1)Most Christians will readily agree that life without God's help would be unbearable. No matter how sorely we are pressed, we always have recourse to God. (Psalm 28) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones December 3, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham: The Circumcision of the Covenant"Genesis 17:7-10 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones November 30, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Praise The Lord, All Ye Nations"Psalm 117 Speaker: Missionary Joshua Jones November 30, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "The Captivity of Job"When tried, it's common for people to ask, "Why?" There are vital lessons to be learned from the crucible, with the flame turned up high. This message calls out four events in the turning of "the captivity of Job". (Job 42) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones November 26, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "ThanksLiving"A farmer once said, "Some people are like my hogs. They're so busy with their faces in the trough they never look up to see where it came from." As we enjoy God's blessings, let us never forget to thank Him. (Psalm 95) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones November 23, 2008 P.M. Service, "Missions Report: Russia and Eastern Europe"Field report from missionary to Russia, Eastern Europe, and now the Muslim world, Sam Slobodian. With testimonies from Ukranian church planters Vitaly and Victoria Sychov. Speaker: Missionary Sam Slobodian November 23, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "The Grief of Job"In this passage Job sounds like the grief-stricken man he is. In Job's suffering we may glimpse the sufferings of our Lord Jesus. (Job 16:1-22) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones November 19, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham"God reasserting His covenant with Abraham. (Genesis 17:1-6) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones November 16, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Who Is There Among You?"King Cyrus was charged by God "to build him an house at Jerusalem". The King's experience parallels the call to missions, both for those who go and for those who send them. (Ezra 1:1-6) Speaker: Mr. Ben Shore, Missionary to Scotland November 16, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "My Servant Job, Perfect and Upright"God calling Job "perfect" was not an expression of sinlessness, but of Job's completeness in his relationship with God. This sermon examines the characteristics of this relationship, so that we might emulate it. (Job 1:1,8) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones November 12, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham"Genesis 16:7-16 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones November 9, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "The Joy of the Lord Is Your Strength"God does not want us to grovel. He wants repentence, not penance. In fact, to attempt to do penance offends God, in that it implies that Jesus' sacrifice was insufficient. When the people heard the Word of God, and wept and mourned at the realization of their sin, Nehemiah comforted them with the words, "the joy of the LORD is your strength." (Nehemiah 8:1-10) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones November 9, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "They Relied Upon the LORD"Outnumbered and outmaneuvered, "the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied upon the LORD God of their fathers." Today, as much as any day, God's people have to trust in Him. (2 Chronicles 13:1-18) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones November 5, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "A Message With A Point"The Lord allows people to be enslaved because of their sin, but when they repent and cry out to Him He sends a savior. (Judges 3:12-30) Speaker: Pastor Keith Betry November 2, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Fear Not"Jesus sent his disciples out to preach the gospel, warning them of the challenges they would face, but likewise assuring them of the love and protection of their all-knowing, omnipotent, Father God. (A report from Siberia, and a message from Matthew 10:26-39) Speaker: Missionary Steve Jackson November 2, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "Compromise"2 Chronicles 18 tells us that Jehoshaphat, a good and one might even say godly man, "joined affinity with Ahab", one of the most wicked men in all the Bible. Thus began his downfall and thus is the warning we all must heed, regarding joining ourselves with unbelievers, and refusing to obey God's command of separation. Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones October 29, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham"Sarai convinced Abram that they needed to help God keep his promise, instead of waiting patiently, and trusting in the Lord. (Genesis 16:1-6) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones October 26, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "The Desire of All Nations" (part 2)Why is our Lord referred to as, "the desire of all nations", when so few seem to desire Him? (Haggai 2:6-7) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones October 26, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "The Desire of All Nations""And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts." (Haggai 2:7) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones October 22, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Jonah and the Heart of God"Jonah submitted to God's will on the outside, but he never submitted his heart. When we serve we must do so with a right spirit, not just right actions. (Jonah 1-4) Speaker: Missionary Ed Alexander October 19, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Do You Know Where You're Going?" (part 2)If you do know where you're going, and if it's where God wants you to be going, Satan will be doing everything he can do prevent you from getting there. It takes focus and determination to do right, with great reliance on God, to persist and complete the job He has for you. (Nehemiah 6) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones October 19, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "Do You Know Where You're Going?"Too often we drift through life, carried by the currents of what we've always done, without thought as to what we want to do or, more importantly, to what God wants us to do. Do you know where you're going? What is God's plan for you? How can you know? (Nehemiah 1-5) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones October 15, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Unity"Ezra 3:1-13, Ephesians 4:1-6 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones October 12, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Repentence" (part 2)Genuine repentence is always manifested in the life of the believer. Repentence that does not produce change is no repentence at all. (2 Corinthians 7:9-11) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones October 12, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "Repentence" (part 1)Repentence comes by the preaching and true practice of it. (Ezra 10:1-2) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones October 8, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "The Command To Discipline"A soldier who refuses to operate in step with his unit puts his brothers-in-arms in jeopardy. Likewise, a Christian who will not be submitted to proper authority becomes a stumblingblock to his brothers and sisters in Christ. The local church is commanded to maintain Godly discipline. (2 Thes. 3:6-15) Speaker: Pastor Keith Betry October 5, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Finish Strong"As king, Uzziah "did that which was right in the sight of the LORD...And his name spread far abroad; for he was marvellously helped [by God], till he was strong. But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction: for he transgressed against the LORD his God..." (2 Ch 26:4,15-16) It's not enough to begin well. We must finish well too. (Isaiah 6, 2 Chronicles 22-26) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones October 5, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "God Is Looking...For You!""For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him..." (2 Chronicles 16:9) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones October 1, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Contentment"Contentment -- Taking the one and only life you have to offer, finding out God's will for that life, and choosing to be happy with it. Ultimately, being in God's will is the one and only way to be truly happy. (1 Chronicles 4:21-23) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones September 19, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "The Great White Throne Judgment"Revelation 20 Speaker: Evangelist Morris Gleiser September 18, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "The Ministry of Barnabas"Acts 11:19-26 Speaker: Evangelist Morris Gleiser September 17, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Revival of Prayer"Luke 11:1-13 Speaker: Evangelist Morris Gleiser September 16, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "The Prodigal's Brother"Luke 15:11-32 Speaker: Evangelist Morris Gleiser September 15, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Revival of Joy"Philippians 3:17 - 4:7 Speaker: Evangelist Morris Gleiser September 14, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "A Need for Personal Refreshment"Isaiah 6:1-8 Speaker: Evangelist Morris Gleiser September 14, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "Where Are You Spiritually?"1 Corinthians 2:9 - 3:4 Speaker: Evangelist Morris Gleiser September 10, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Bring Them In"1 Corinthians 2:14 tells us, "...the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." Is there God? Did He really create the world in six days? Is there Heaven and Hell? These are the spiritual things of which Paul wrote. Until the "natural man", the unconverted sinner, gives up his independent ways and allows himself to be instructed by the Spirit of God, he will never be able to know them. We cannot hope to win arguments by logic, but we can win sinners to Christ by bringing people to hear the preaching of God's Word. Speaker: David Vancina September 7, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "God Can Save Impossible People"Zaccheus was a deep sinner in the eyes of most people. He was also powerful and very wealthy. Not a prime candidate for salvation, in human eyes. But it is of this man that Jesus said, "This day is salvation come to this house". We must not confine our witnessing to those we think will receive God's Word, "For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost." No restrictions. (Luke 19:1-10) Speaker: Pastor Keith Betry September 7, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "The Rich Young Ruler"In Luke 18 a man addressed Jesus with the question, "Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" He was made "very sorrowful" by the answer. Jesus told him, "...sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me." The man's sin was not that he had riches, but that he loved those riches more than God. (Luke 18:18-29) Speaker: Pastor Keith Betry August 31, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "The Centurion's Faith"The centurion came to Jesus in humility and faith. He did not have the background knowledge of Scripture that might have helped him understand Jesus as the Messiah, but many others did have that background who never accepted Him as Lord. So too, many in our Christian churches have had great opportunity to understand the Gospel, yet they never bear the fruit of a changed heart and life. Knowledge of and exposure to the truth of one's sin must be followed by repentence and conversion, or an eternity in Hell awaits. (Matthew 8:5-13) Speaker: Pastor Keith Betry August 31, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "The Marriage Supper of the Lamb"Is the world really as out-of-control as it seems? Scripturally it's right on track. Despite the excesses of the past, the preaching and teaching of prophetic revelation still has a place in the modern pulpit. (Revelation 19:7-9) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 27, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Divine Resources"Zechariah 4:6 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 24, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "David Encouraged Himself In The LORD"Upon returning to their home of Ziklag and finding it to have been razed by the Amalekites, David and his men were sorely distressed. (It is interesting to note that had Saul obeyed God's command to destroy the Amalekites in 1 Samuel chapter 15, the Amalekites would not have continued to plague God's people.) Under these dire circumstances David did what we all must remember (or learn?) to do -- "...David encouraged himself in the LORD his God." (1 Samuel 30:1-20) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 24, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "To Obey Is Better Than Sacrifice"The philisophy of pragmatism says, "It's not important how you get there, as long as you arrive." God is not a pragmatist, and nor should we be. Incomplete obedience is really nothing more than subtle, careful rebellion. 1 Samuel 15:22-23 says, "...Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams. For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry..." (1 Samuel 15:1-35) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 20, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham"God's prophecy for Israel -- Possession of Caanan (Genesis 15:12-21) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 17, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "God of Judgment"The God of the Bible is a God of love, but He is also a God of judgment. Do we truly believe that? Does it affect our lives, and our witness to our unsaved coworkers, neighbors, friends, and family? (Rev. 19:11-16) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 17, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "The Glory Hath Departed"God pronounced a sentence on Eli and his house because, "his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not." (1 Sa 13:3) Because of their sin, God's glory departed from Israel. Will we, as a nation and as individuals, learn this lesson and avoid a similar judgment? (From 1 Samuel chapter 2-4) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 13, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham"Genesis 15:5-11 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 10, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Joshua's Memorials"(Joshua 4:1-24) Joshua built memorials to remind the people of how God had worked and of what they had done in His strength. One memorial remained visible (v20), but one was in the middle of the river Jordan (v9), visible only in the mind's eye. The actions we take for God are the memorials we will leave behind, "That all the people of the earth might know the hand of the LORD, that it is mighty: that ye might fear the LORD your God for ever." (v24) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 10, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "My Eyes or God's Eyes?""In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes." (Judges 17:6) With these words, the Bible often begins or concludes a story of willful disregard of God's commands. A good church consists of a good man bringing the light of God's Word to a people who desire to see by that light. Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 6, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham: His Belief, Counted As Righteousness"In this message we see Abram call upon God for His promise of an heir and, in a single profound verse, we see God's eternal plan for salvation made plain: "And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness." (Genesis 15:1-6) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 3, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Training vs. Teaching" (Part 2)Teaching puts information in a child's head, but training reaches the heart. (Deuteronomy 6:1-15) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones August 3, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "Training vs. Teaching" (Part 1)Teaching puts information in a child's head, but training reaches the heart. (Deuteronomy 6:1-15) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones July 30, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "So Shall Thy Poverty Come"Worldliness, immorality, spritual poverty. These things come not suddenly, but subtly, stealthily, when we fail to appreciate God's blessings of guidance and wisdom. A message of warning to teens and parents of teens, but useful and necessary for all. (Proverbs 24:30-34) Speaker: Dr. Ronald E. Williams, Director, Hephzibah House July 27, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Servant Forever"Exodus 21:1-6, Deuteronomy 15:12-18 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones July 27, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "These Are The Journeys"Numbers, chapter 33 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones July 23, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Preparation To Serve"Exodus 24:13 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones July 20, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Phinehas' Zeal"In this message's text we read of Phinehas' bold action in the face of sin. His zeal and militancy are little represented, and much needed, in today's world. Pray for men of God who will stand for truth, irrespective of the world's opinion. (Numbers 25:1-15) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones July 20, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "Three Reasons Why Moses Couldn't Go Into the Promised Land"All's well that ends well? That's a nice saying, but it's not God's way. Moses was denied entrance to the Canaan over his one transgression described to us in Numbers 20:10. We are saved by God's grace through faith, and no sin is too great to be covered by Jesus' attoning sacrifice, but we do not have license to live as we please. Even born-again believers will stand before the throne of judgement, and give account for ourselves. We must strive for personal holiness, and give God the glory. (Numbers 20:1-13, 27:12-14) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones July 18, 2008 Creation Seminar, "Dating Methods and the Question of Age"Evolutionists say that as long as you have enough time, "...the impossible becomes possible, the possible becomes probable, and the probable becomes virtually certain." Unimaginably long periods of time would be required for evolution to have taken place, even if one ignores the theory's lack of fossil support and its contradictions of fundamental biological laws. In this session we learn about the unreliability of Carbon 14 and Radioisotope Dating, the assumptions that underly these dating methods, and the scientific evidence supporting the Bible's assertions of a young (approximately 6000 year old) Earth. Speaker: Dr. Orlando Buria, Ph.D. July 17, 2008 Creation Seminar, "The Genesis Solution To Evolution""Irreducible Complexity" refers to the fact that biological characteristics, from large scale systems like eyes to microscopic systems inside cells, depend on dozens, hundreds, or thousands of interdependent mechanisms and chemicals for their proper operation. How could those mechanisms and chemicals have come together at the same time and place without a designer? In this session we learn about the incredible, irreducible complexity that defies explanation by evolutionists, and we also examine the Scriptural statements about God's Special Creation that no Christian has the right to ignore. Speaker: Dr. Orlando Buria, Ph.D. July 16, 2008 Creation Seminar, "The Genesis Solution To Evolution"The lack of a mechanism by which evolution can be shown, or even reasonably imagined, to have taken place is a difficult problem for evolution theorists to answer. Likewise the law of biogenesis, which asserts that life only comes from pre-existing life, is supported by the creation model but contradicted by the evolution model. Can evolution, a theory which requires action for which no mechanism exists and which contradicts one of the most enduring laws of biology, really be called "science"? Speaker: Dr. Orlando Buria, Ph.D. July 15, 2008 Creation Seminar, "The Genesis Solution To Evolution"Evolution, if it took place as the theory presents, would be supported by an abundance of physical evidence preserved in the fossil record. Yet no such evidence exists. On the contrary, the geological evidence correlates much better with the Genesis account than with evolutionary theory. Which one can more accurately be called "science"? Speaker: Dr. Orlando Buria, Ph.D. July 14, 2008 Creation Seminar, "The Genesis Solution To Evolution"Rejection of "special creation" (that is, creation by God) has had an impact in nearly every facet of modern society -- Industry, Political Science, Medicine, Sociology, Ethics, Morality, Law -- and that impact has not been positive. We begin our Creation Seminar with a look at the untenable, unprovable theories of natural origins (the "Big Bang", the theory of evolution), their contradiction of fundamental scientific principles, and the inherently more reasonable idea of God as creator of the universe -- the Genesis Solution. Speaker: Dr. Orlando Buria, Ph.D. July 13, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Esau Despised His Birthright"Genesis 25:29-34 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones July 13, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "I Am Not Worthy"In Genesis 32:10 Jacob acknowledges his unworthiness of God's many blessings. We too do well to consider our own unworthiness, and to rejoice in God's great mercy toward us. Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones July 9, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham"Genesis 14:13-24 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones July 6, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "The Presence of God" (part 2)"Is the LORD among us or not?" A time of difficulty is not an indication of God's absence, though it may be a time of testing, or a time of correction when we wander away. How can the believer know God is there? Simply by taking him at his Word as in Hebrews 13:5 "...for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." (Exodus 17:1-7) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones July 6, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "The Presence of God" (part 1)"Is the LORD among us or not?" A time of difficulty is not an indication of God's absence, though it may be a time of testing, or a time of correction when we wander away. How can the believer know God is there? Simply by taking him at his Word as in Hebrews 13:5 "...for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." (Exodus 17:1-7) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones July 2, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham"Studying Abram's rescue of Lot, and the priesthood of Melchizedek. (Genesis 14:13-24) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 29, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Song of Integrity" (part 2)Spiritual success can come only when we deal with God -- and with each other -- from a position of complete honesty and integrity. Anything less will critically damage our relationships with all. (Psalm 26) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 29, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "Song of Integrity" (part 1)Spiritual success can come only when we deal with God -- and with each other -- from a position of complete honesty and integrity. Anything less will critically damage our relationships with all. (Psalm 26) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 25, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham and Lot"Genesis 14:1-12 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 22, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Scriptural Baptism"A message on the necessity and practice of Scriptural Baptism, and the further necessity of church membership, and participation in the work of the church. (Titus 3:1-7, et al.) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 22, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "So Great Salvation"Titus 3:1-7 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 18, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "The Priesthood of the Believer" (part 3)In Old Testament times, under the law, people had access to God only through the priests. No man does, or can, stand as our priest today. The New Testament tells us that now, through Jesus Christ, every believer has direct access to the throne room of God. (1 Peter 2:1-10) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 15, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "The Priesthood of the Believer" (part 2)In Old Testament times, under the law, people had access to God only through the priests. No man does, or can, stand as our priest today. The New Testament tells us that now, through Jesus Christ, every believer has direct access to the throne room of God. (1 Peter 2:1-10) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 15, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "The Priesthood of the Believer" (part 1)In Old Testament times, under the law, people had access to God only through the priests. No man does, or can, stand as our priest today. The New Testament tells us that now, through Jesus Christ, every believer has direct access to the throne room of God. (1 Peter 2:1-10) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 11, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "God's Cure for a Troubled Mind"How do we address a Prozac age? Believers have trouble just like unbelievers have trouble. The difference is that unbelievers have no recourse but to things of the world. Believers have direct recourse to God. Three critical, simultaneous responses can provide deliverance from the things that trouble the believer's heart and mind. (Philippians chapter 4) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 8, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Joy Unspeakable" (part 2)As believers we can live in the joy of our position in Christ. (1 Peter 1:19) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 8, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "Joy Unspeakable" (part 1)As believers we can live in the joy of our position in Christ. (1 Peter 1:1-9) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 4, 2008 P.M. Bible Study, "Abraham"Lot chose what he believed would bring prosperity, but in doing so drew near to Sodom and surrounded himself with the pride, self-satisfaction, idleness, and sin that characterized that place (Ezekiel 16:49) - to his own destruction. Abram's desires, choices, and actions were more noble and reflected his faith in God. (Genesis 13:11-18) Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones June 1, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Our Covetousness vs. God's Will"The tribe of Dan became dissatisfied with the land God had given them, and sought instead their own way. By so doing they set themselves up for destruction. We must learn to trust God, and know that He will protect and provide when we are where He wants us to be. (Judges 18, et al.) Speaker: Pastor Keith Betry June 1, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "A Message To People Who Do Not Know God"Perhaps moreso today than at any time in the past, America is populated with people who are ignorant of God. In Acts 17 Paul gives us an example of how to bring the gospel to those who do not know even the basics of Biblical Christianity. Speaker: Pastor Keith Betry May 4, 2008 P.M. Sermon, "Christian Liberty" (part 2)1 Peter 2:11-16 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones May 4, 2008 A.M. Sermon, "Christian Liberty" (part 1)Galatians 2:1-5 Speaker: Dr. Milton E. Jones April 30, 2008 P.M.
