We should always be thankful and we are to show our thanks to God for everything at all times. There are several ways that we show our appreciation and how we can also express our thanks to others.
Sermons
Prayers
Our prayers can be a sweet smelling aroma before God. We must strive to make them so through our willingness to sacrifice our time–in prayer–for our fellow brethren.
Where Does Our Strength Come From?
The strength we have comes from God. We must trust in God, not on our own abilities, to live lives that are pleasing to Him.
The Church
The Word of God reminds us to be on guard against falling away! A vital key to help us in this challenge is to understand the purpose for God’s Church and to know that we are truly members of the spiritual body of Jesus Christ.
How To Look At God’s Laws – Part 2
Many wonder how to apply God’s laws today. What about the Ten Commandments, the annual Holy Days, sacrifices and washings, laws of national warfare, marriage to the sister-in-law after the brother’s death, certain penalties for wrongdoing, wearing tassels, touching dead bodies, circumcision, cross-dressing, wearing garments of different sorts, or sowing different kinds of seed? How can we know the answer?
The Hebrew Calendar
Why are we following the current Hebrew Calendar in order to be able to observe the annual Holy Days in their proper times? Why doesn’t anyone else have the God-given authority to devise their own calendar? Why does the rejection of the Hebrew calendar constitute a lack of faith in the power of God Almighty?
How to Look at God’s Laws
Many are confused today when they hear about “laws” which are mentioned in the Old Testament. Which laws are still valid for Christians today, and which are no longer in force and effect? What principles are we to apply in order to find the answer to these questions?
Your Future Life
The truth of God’s word does reveal the future for all of mankind – even in terms of eternity. We can know and anticipate this future based on the promises God has given to those who obey Him!
Life After Death
Most professing Christians believe that a person who dies will immediately go to heaven or hell or purgatory. But the Bible teaches us about the resurrections from the dead. The Old Testament reveals that God will bring the dead back to life, but that this does not mean that all will be resurrected at the same time, or to the same condition. The New Testament confirms that there will be more than just one resurrection. This sermon explains why.
The End of Suffering
The suffering we endure in the lives we lead in the world can be overwhelming. By helping others we can receive the benefit of God’s guidance through our suffering. We must also remember that our suffering helps us to partake of that which Jesus Christ endured for our sake. In due time, however, God’s plan will be completed, and suffering of all kind will cease.
