How Far Have We Fallen? (Part One)

Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

Because of the rapid information flow, the changes occur faster and the regressions become the norm, as is seen in the acceptance of homosexuality and abortion.


Purpose-Driven Churches (Part 4)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Outcome-based religion holds large membership as its measure of success, believing that the ends justify the means. It avoids doctrine that might divide.


Hebrews (Part Twelve): Chapter 2, A Mind-Bending Purpose (Part One)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

To counteract complacency, Hebrews warns against neglecting God's invitation of salvation, which He does not guarantee until sanctification has run its course.


Politics and Christ's Return

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

Because we are set apart by God, we are not to become involved in the world's political, judicial, or military systems. Our term in office has yet to begin.


Sanctification and Holiness (Part 4)

Character and Leadership

Sermon/Bible Study by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

Gentle and Lowly in Heart

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

Paul displayed a gentleness not grounded in weakness, but in strength, a gentleness which showed anger, but only at the right time and to the right degree.


Confronting the Field of Battle

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

We must put on the entire armor of God, not just the defensive parts. We must proactively rather than reactively assume out part in the spiritual battle.


City of Peace

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by Martin G. Collins

Paradoxically, Jerusalem has not been a city of peace, but a magnet for conflict, a situation which will not end until Christ returns.


You Are My Friends!

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

While it is common on Facebook to defriend/unfriend, Christ's love for His people is a friending with the condition that godly fruit is produced.
