Episodes

Gate to Glory
Most of Christianity believes that our soul departs this earth and travels one way or another immediately at death. But is that what the Bible teaches about resurrection? Is there a reward for the righteous or a punishment for the wicked before Christ returns? Is death the gate to glory? Is death...
-
The Coming of Christ
The second coming of Christ is the very fabric of our faith. His coming motivates us to know God, understand Him, and live for Him. It has a purifying effect. If we really believe Jesus is coming again, we will change the way we think and act. We will be motivated to tell others about this good...

The Ezekiel News Network
Have you been on vacation lately? Have you missed out on what's happening in Israel, Syria, Iran, Egypt, Russia, and all around the Middle East? Well, don't worry. God has already foretold the specific details of end-time events. And in today's message, we examine the visions of Ezekiel and how...
-
God's Man for the Hour
Sometimes we're like Gideon. We hear God say He's with us, but all we see are all of the bad things happening around us. And then we give up. But that's not God's plan for us. He is with us even through the hard times, and He tells us to "Go." Rather than focus on why bad things are happening, He...
-
Great New Things - as Planned
God has planned great things for His people. He has planned new things. He's given us a new message of good news. He's given us a new life in His son. He's made us a new creation following our new birth. And He's given us a new hope in a new world under a new order. It's all new. It's all for us....
-
The Soul Goes Where?
Sometimes doctrines in church tradition go unexamined, but when we scrutinize the concepts against what the Scriptures have to say, we discover the truth. It's that way in today's study of the "soul." Many teach that man is created with an innate immortality, but is that what the Bible really...
-
A Living Faith
What is true faith? How can we know? What does the Bible tell us? How do others know we have a living faith? In this message from a revival service in 1972, Pastor Duncan challenges us to live out our faith. We have to put our confidence in the evidence. Our hope is in the promises of God. If we...
-
Dynamic Christianity
What made the early church grow? Why were they so dynamic? Could the growth they experienced happen in our churches today? How would we handle it? Can God do it again? Pastor Kent knows it can happen, and in today's message, he reminds us of the conditions it takes to make it happen again. Acts...
-
A Guarantee for the Future
It's possible to spend thousands of dollars on insurance without ever filing a claim. But life insurance makes perfect sense because we're all guaranteed to die. In today's parable, Jesus talks about insuring our lives against another certainty. We are all going to face him one day. The wedding...
-
The Sure Hope
God has made an oath. He has promised us of the sure hope that lies ahead. We are heirs of the same covenant He made to Abraham through faith. It's the anchor of our lives. In the present evil that surrounds, let's not forget it. Pastor Terry Ferrell Greenville Church of God - 217 White Oak Rd,...
-
The Better Resurrection
Many around the world have been persecuted for their faith. They have endured the suffering because of their hope. They know that the end of their life is not the end of the story. When Jesus returns, things will be made right. And because he rose from the dead, someday all the righteous will…

My Last Sermon
No, today's message isn't really Pastor Steve's last sermon - or at least we hope not. Today's message title was taken from a 1936 message written by J.H. Anderson to an audience he knew he would never see again. Have you ever thought about what message you would share if you only had one chance…

Israel and Her Future
Did you ever notice how Israel always seems to make the news? Why does this little nation get such big publicity? In the end, who will help her? Has God forgotten His promises? Has God forsaken His people? In today's message, we examine the end-time prophecies regarding the restoration of Israel...
-
Israel in These Times
Israel is God's covenant people in God's covenant land. The nation is the "apple of God's eye." Understanding Israel's place in the program, plan, and purpose of God also has great significance in the plan and purpose for each believer. In today's message, we examine Israel's place in history and...
-
Read the Signs
As we watch world events and crises unfolding all around us, we begin to wonder whether we're living in the last days. We hear about the end of the world, but how do we know what to expect? Does the Bible tell us? Did Jesus reveal some of the circumstances and trends that would occur in the...
-
Can Israel Survive?
Once again, Israel and the peace in the Middle East are back in the headlines - much the same as it was in 1978 when this message was recorded. What's going to happen? Has God done away with Israel? Will God ever again have anything to do with this nation? Has God revoked his promises? What about...
-
Your Kingdom Come
Often, in the Lord's prayer, we miss the meaning in the words as we recite over it. When Jesus prayed, "your kingdom come," what exactly did he mean? Why was the kingdom so important? What exactly is the Kingdom of God? Where is it? Is the Kingdom some mystical, ethereal place where we float on a...
-
Paradise Lost, Paradise Gained
What is the meaning of "paradise" in the Bible? Is it synonymous with "heaven?" Is that where believers go when they die? Did Jesus enter "paradise" the day he died? When man sinned and was driven out of the Garden of Eden, was paradise lost forever? And what exactly is the "third heaven?" Find…
more -
Immortality: When and Where?
Death is a reality, but the world of religion offers man a variety of explanations of what happens when a man dies and ways to obtain immortality. Is there hope beyond death? Does the Bible clearly tell us what happens? From what are we made? From where do we come? What is our destiny? When?…

When We Meet Him in the Air
Is the end of the world upon us? Are we really living in the end times? How can we know? Why does it matter? What if this really is the last week of your life? What will you do? 1 Thess. 4:16,17; 1 Cor. 15; Rev. 11:15; 5:9,10; 2 Thess. 2; 2 Peter 3 Pastor Alan Cain Lawrenceville Church of God,...
-
Faith for Living in the World Today
Watch or read the world news today, and all you'll hear about is doom and gloom. The times are tough, and sometimes when we're going through struggles, our faith can be tested. In today's message, we're reminded of the importance of applying our faith in our everyday lives to grow and strengthen...
-
Growing Seeds and Killing Weeds
The enemies of every gardener are the weeds. If you don't watch closely, weeds will steal the nutrients and the water from the seeds and eventually destroy your crop. Often though, it's hard to control the weeds without harming your plants. In the lesson we examine in today's parable, Jesus...
-
First-Century Christians: The Mosaic Law
As we continue our study on the early church, today we pause to look again at the Jewish heritage of the first followers of Christ. How did the first-century Christians relate to laws of Moses? What about the feasts and fasts of Israel? Did Jesus change the law? If not, when did the strict…

The Long Road Ahead
Do you really think that you can make a difference in the future Kingdom of God? Sometimes we just look at the long road ahead and forget that our destination is getting closer every day. God has given each and everyone of us a talent to use in His service. Will you choose to use what God gave…

First-Century Christians: The Worship Program of the Early Church
How did the early church worship? What was included in their worship service? As we look in today's text, we find four simple and essential focus points of the early church: the apostles' doctrine, fellowship, the breaking of bread, and prayer. They continued daily in these things with one accord...
-
Extra-Strength Sunscreen Needed
Sunburns are a way of life when you're raised in Arizona, but you would need extra-strength sunscreen for a day that was twice as long as normal. In today's message, we examine an amazing story involving Joshua and the Israelites. In the middle of their military campaign through Canaan, God made...
-
Will Jesus Return in our Lifetime?
Generation after generation has wondered if this would be the generation in which Jesus would return. Every generation of Christians has wished it. There have been many who have speculated on the time of his return. But how do we know we're getting close? What are the events leading up to the end...
-
Prepare
This world gets more challenging and more confused each day. More than ever, we need to be studying God's word, praying regularly, and learning from fellow believers as we focus on the hope we have when Jesus returns. We must be obedient, and avoid slipping back into our old ways, or else we…
more -
Triumphant Together
The message of the Bible is a message of triumph. The one and only God sent his one and only Son to rescue us from our sins. But our faith is a faith that calls on others to join with us as we join with God. We're not in this alone. We're in this together. We share in the victories now and in the...
-
The Unique Nature of Christ
Sometimes when we observe the fashion or appearance of other people we observe, we might say they look very unique. But what does it really mean to be unique? Jesus was created as the Son of Man and the Son of God. He was a completely unique human being. He is our Savior. He is the Christ. But…

The Day Moses Broke all 10 Commandments
In today's look at the 10 Commandments, we find the brother of Moses, Aaron, yielding to the people's desires and making them a golden calf to worship. They were trying to combine the worship of the world with the worship of Yahweh, and it didn't work. It never does. As Moses descended from the...
-
First-Century Christians: The Conditions of Salvation
One of the clouded issues of Christianity through the years is exactly what we have to do to be "saved." Do you have to be baptized? Is it required? Is salvation universal? Are there conditions for salvation? What was the view of the early church? Find out today. Rom. 6:1-11; 10:17,9,10; 1 Cor.…

Thy Kingdom Come
The primary focus of the preaching and teaching of Jesus was on the Kingdom of God. He talked about it everywhere he went. He showed it through his life and example. He left a piece of the Kingdom wherever he went and with whomever he met. The same message was also the focus of the ministry of…

What do we do with One God?
God is one. The Father alone is God. Over and over again the Bible makes the distinction. But if we believe that, what do we do with it? How does knowing the one true God change the way we live for Him and worship Him? Pastor Michael Hoffman Oregon Church of God, 860 West Oregon Trail Rd. 61061
-
First-Century Christians: Are We Christians?
Some tend to really generalize the use of the word "Christian." Others have decided it best that no one be called one. But what about the early followers of Christ? Were they called "Christians?" Did they call themselves Christians? Can we say that we are Christians today? Acts 11:26; 26:28; 1...
-
First-Century Christians: The Second Coming

-

What Really Happens at Death?
There are many different concepts and ideas about what really happens when we die, but they're not all biblical. What does the Bible really reveal? What really happens when we die? Is there a part of us that keeps on living? Where do we go? In today's thorough study, Pastor Michael shows us what...

Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow
Christians have a yesterday, today, and tomorrow because we have a Savior that is the same yesterday, today, and forever. We have an assurance and a hope in him.

-
John 1:1 and the Trinity
"In the beginning was the word..." That's how the apostle John's gospel opens, but what exactly did he mean? What is the "word," or "logos?" Bible translators and Greek scholars have had many different ideas about what he was really writing about. Was John really telling us that Jesus has...
-
Israel and the Middle East
The eyes of the world are on Israel and the Middle East. Almost every day, this little nation is in the headlines. Jesus also told us to be watching Israel and its prophetic significance at the end of the age. The Bible also reveals that it will be from Jerusalem that Jesus will reign when he...
-
Heirs of God
In the pages of the Bible, we find the formula for salvation. Man is born lost, but there is a way that leads to eternal life. But there is only one way. It's not through natural life or the law but from Jesus alone. We can't get it simply by knowing about Christ. We have to follow Jesus. But we...
-
The Day of the Lord
Israel is being prepared right now for the day of its salvation. Israel keeps searching for peace and safety through treaties and agreements, but we are told in the Bible that there will only be false security until Jesus returns. The Arab nations want control of Jerusalem. The nations of the…

Yahweh the One and Only
Nowhere does the Bible make an attempt to prove Yahweh’s existence. The Bible simply asserts His existence. God's existence is known emphatically by His creation and by our conscience. In everything, we see the stamp of God. Man is always seeking Him. And in the first commandment of the ten, we…

Sandal Shaker
We all have our fears. No one is truly fearless. We all have something we're afraid of. We don't always know how to react when we face danger. Even the Apostle Paul had moments in his life when he was afraid, but God reassured him not to be scared. What do we do when we face resistance? Do we run...

What is the Gospel?
When you hear the term "gospel," what comes to mind? What is it? What do you think of? Does your answer coincide with what Jesus said and taught? Christ said preaching the gospel was the purpose he was sent to do. It is extremely important that we're teaching and preaching the same message. We…
