Through the Fire
Pastor James Ritch    Resurrection Hope Church of God of the Abrahamic
Faith   Lenoir, North Carolina
Open the newspaper, watch the news, listen to the radio.  There's plenty
that's not right in this world.  With all the trouble, what's the answer?  Our
God is the answer.  He has big plans for us.  He's searching for people who
are looking to serve and know Him.  He's refining his people.  He's building
a nation to come.  In this maze of living, will you let God fit into your life?

The Voice of Truth Broadcast:  Let's Go Fishing
Pastor Jeff Fletcher  E-mail Jeff
Bethel Church of God of the Abrahamic Faith, Pelzer, South Carolina
Everybody likes to share some good news.  In fact, as disciples of Christ,
that's our primary mission.  Take a look at Simon the fisherman.  In all ways,
he was mostly unqualified, but he was called by Jesus to spread the
gospel.  Today's study looks at 5 ways to become a fisher of men.  Are you
being called into action?  Are you just involved?  Or are you totally
committed?

The Strength of the Lord
Pastor Michael Cisler    E-mail Mike  
North Kent Bible Church   Rockford, Michigan
God is able to power and strengthen us to deal with whatever comes our
way.  We can depend and rely on Him in times of loss, discouragement, and
change.  He's our rock and our shield.  But we have to put our own power
aside, and let God be the source.

Truth Matters Radio Broadcast:  Monotheism Makes Sense
Host Sean Finnegan with George Littler   E-mail Sean
The Truth Matters Radio show, once heard on WHAZ (97.3 FM and 1330
AM) in the Capital District of New York State, has not been renewed to air
due to doctrinal differences with the radio station.  We pray the truth
continues to be shared through this ministry.  In this week's un-aired
program, listen in to hear a riveting story of how God in his love pursued
George Littler throughout his early tumultuous years, and how he was
saved apart from believing complex doctrines which made little sense to a
street-smart New Yorker.  
The Kingdom is at Hand
Ted Armes    8-1-1976
The Bible is filled with evidence of the second coming of Christ.  The Bible
also has warned us that in the last days men would scoff, and the message
would come under attack.  Jesus, the angels, and his disciples all promised
of his coming.  And the promises of God are in Jesus.  But when will it
happen?  How will it happen?  Why?  How many still need to know?  
Where's the evidence?  Are we in the last days?

A Wonderful Homegathering
C.E. Randall   10-18-1981
The year of Jubilee was to be a great celebration throughout the land of
Israel.  It was also an important way the people of God could show their
recognition of God's sovereignty.  It is a great foretaste of the fantastic
homecoming celebration that we will experience when Jesus returns.  Just
picture that resurrection day when families of faith will be re-united together
forever and God Himself will dwell again with his people.  Just imagine the
day when Jerusalem will finally be at peace and when the earth will be
restored to its original perfection.  Until then, we must continue to exercise
our faith and expect big things from our God.

Revelation 14:6
Z.B. Duncan   11-25-1984
In Revelation, we learn about a "natural" Babylon and a "spiritual" Babylon.  
With the spiritual, we see a twisting of the everlasting gospel as it adapts
false doctrines.  We begin to see how the truth of the one true God has been
corrupted.  Join Pastor Duncan on today's radio show as we search for the
truth.

Psalms Series #6 - Hell and the Grave in the Psalms
Pastor Terry M. Ferrell   E-mail Terry
Greenville Church of God, 217 White Oak Road, Greenville, SC 29605
A word study of "hell" is a revealing and important subject.  The word
translated "hell" has a very different meaning now than when it was
written.  As we explore, we see that it always has to do with a state of
death.  Is there fire and burning there?  Is there judgment in hell?  What
do the Psalms, and the Bible, really teach?  Find out the meaningful
answers today.

Who Owns Palestine?
Pastor Hollis Partlowe
Dixon Church of God, Dixon, Illinois
Pick up a newspaper or turn on the TV.  Bible lands are in the news
every day.  The world's eyes are on the Middle East.  There is continual
contention and conflict that still exists to this day that dates back to the
oldest family feud in history.  Who really owns Palestine?  Many nations
have possessed the land, and many nations have tried to annihilate
the Jews.  Yet, God has preserved the Jewish nation and their unique
identity.  Why?  What does the Bible reveal about this special land and
people of promise?

The Joshua Predicament
Wally Winner     E-mail Wally
Joy Fellowship Church of God of the Abrahamic Faith  Piedmont, SC
Sometimes we just don't want God's interference.  We just want to live
our lives without Him.  Once we get comfortable, we get content.  It was
that way with the Israelites.  They never possessed all the land nor
drove out all the people.  They never fulfilled all of God's commands.  
It's the same with us though, isn't it?  How much are we missing
because we fail to "occupy all the land" that God has promised us?

Lessons From Bridesmaids
Steve Taylor   E-mail Steve
Lakeshore Bible Church  Tempe, Arizona   Check out Steve's blog
In today's story, we focus on the wedding of the ages beginning when
Jesus, the bridegroom, visibly comes again.  But what if he comes
when we're not expecting it?  Will you be ready?  Will you be prepared?  
Disaster comes when we're not watchful.  We can't just wait until the
last minute to start getting ready.  How do we stay alert?  It all starts with
getting to know the man and his message on a first name basis.
Matthew 25:1-13; 2 Peter 3:3,4,14,15; Matthew 7:22,23
Paradise
Paul Rankin
Church of God, Faith of Abraham   Cashmere, Washington
Paradise was created perfectly by the simple word of God.  But it only
took one sin to lose the paradise God had created and come under the
curse, separated from God.  Jesus came to reverse the curse.  Through
his life, we see a glimpse of the restoration that is coming as we look
ahead to the complete restoration that will be fulfilled when he returns.
The Gospel of John:  The Ultimate Thirst-Quencher
Pastor Gary Burnham     E-mail Gary     Cornerstone Bible Church   
The sports drink industry is a very competitive market.  Each claims they
will quench your thirst better and restore the nutrients and minerals you
need back into your body.  Water is essential to physical life, but we
know what happens when we don't get enough to drink.  We start to get
dehydrated.  Our body starts to suffer.  We need more than just enough.  
Jesus also said it was like that spiritually with us.  As he spoke by the
well with a woman he was supposed to hate, he showed us what it
means to have a regular intake from a permanent supply of the living
water.
John 4:1-42
What's This Stuff About Communion?
Elder Danny Durham
Guthrie Grove Church of God of the Abrahamic Faith   Pelzer, SC  
Sometimes we get into the habit of just doing things just because it's
the routine.  It often starts becoming that way with Communion when
we don't consider what it's all about.  Why do we celebrate
Communion?  Is it important?  Where did it come from?  What does it
mean?  What's it all about?
1 Corinthians 11:23-29
