Places of Safety (Part One)

Sermonette by Ryan McClure

God see His Holy Days (include the weekly Sabbath) as typical places of safety. Such occasions foreshadow a time when the wolf and lamb dwell together.


Places of Safety

Sermonette by Levi W. Graham

Jesus Christ (not a physical location) is our place of safety Who alone has the power to deliver, set on high, honor, and be with us in the midst of trouble.


A Place of Safety? (Part 1)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

God has the ability to protect and save in a variety of methods. The Scriptures reveal various purposes for intervention, protection, and prudent escape.


A Place of Safety? (Part 2)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Many biblical examples, including Jesus, David, and Jacob, all fled for their lives in a prudent common sense move. Discretion is often the best part of valor.


Places of Safety (Part Two)

Sermonette by Ryan McClure

God has warned us what is to come; we now have time to refine our character, allowing God's Spirit to transform us into the image of Jesus Christ.


A Place of Safety? (Part 3)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Paul gives two signs of the Tribulation: The falling away and the appearance of the man of sin who sits in the temple in Jerusalem (II Thessalonians 2:3-4).


A Place of Safety? (Part 5)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Obsessing about the Place of Safety is a sure way to disqualify oneself from it. God calls some faithful, zealous ones for martyrdom during the Tribulation.


Preparing For the End

Sermon by Ryan McClure

As we head rapidly toward the end times, plagues will increase, meaning we must run our race deliberately and with intense focus, taking solace in Psalm 91.


The Handwriting Is on The Wall (2003)

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Even as Paul admonishes us about the night being far spent, we must make careful and judicious use of our time in anticipating the return of Jesus Christ.


What's So Bad About Babylon? (2013) (Part One)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

Because Babylon is a system, we cannot physically flee it. We have to flee by keeping our minds clean from the customs, traditions, and cultural influences.


Leaving Sodom

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

America resembles the days of Lot and the culture of Sodom. The days of Lot were also productive and wealthy, leading to an excess of idle time.


Antichrist Deceptions

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

Antichrists manifest several characteristics, including fostering deception and confusion, preventing fellowship, and creating intense spiritual conflict.


Matthew (Part Twenty-Two)

Sermon/Bible Study by John W. Ritenbaugh

The transfiguration prefigured the Kingdom of God, with the disciples only seeing Jesus in the end, showing salvation is through Him alone.


The Two Witnesses (Part Three)

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

The first major concern of the Two Witnesses will be directed to the church rather than to the world at large, expunging worldliness out of the church.


Don't Allow Fear to Direct Your Life

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by Kim Myers

Fear and discouragement have infiltrated the church of God, causing many to stop fellowshipping on the Sabbath and some to give up keeping it altogether.


Looking Back

Sermon by Ryan McClure

We must be careful not to get too accustomed to the things of this world so that we find it difficult to leave it behind, like Lot's hapless wife.


The Need to Escape and Be Rescued

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by Martin G. Collins

We can experience escape and rescue by exercising reverence and godly fear. One of the most dangerous forms of enslavement consists of our own carnal lusts.


Preternatural, Natural, Unnatural, Supernatural (Part Three)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

Christ's life and death were supernatural in that He had God's Spirit from the beginning, giving Him power over things, as well as undeniable logic.


Psalm 55

Sermon/Bible Study by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

Psalm 55 shows how a righteous man deals with treachery and betrayal. When we are faced with horrendous problems such as betrayal, escape is not an option.


Titus (Part Six)

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

We have the commission to be witnesses to a corrupt society. It is in the closeness of the crowd that we have the greatest potential to grow spiritually.


Keep Your Heart With All Diligence!

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

Christ does not remove His people's trials, but He provides help for those going through them, using the cleansing power of the trial to heal their minds.


Faith (Part Four)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

The example of Lot's wife teaches us that God does not want us to maintain close associations with the world because it almost inevitably leads to compromise.


Many Are Called, But Few Are Chosen (Part Two)

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

Despite the Council of Laodicea's condemnation of the Sabbath, a group of believers termed Paulicians kept God's laws and resisted the heresy from Rome.


The Needed Dimension

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Unless we humbly submit before God, all of His efforts go for naught. God will not give His Spirit to those who will not obey Him.


Ecclesiastes Resumed (Part Twenty-Three)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

Psalm 73 describes someone seeing the wicked prosper while the righteous suffer, but it is not true that people in the world are leading superior lives.


Preparing for Bad Times (Part 2)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

To assume that God will take care of us without our making an effort to provide for ourselves is a dangerous presumption.


Government (Part Five)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Only those who are governable will be allowed to govern with God. No government will work without each individual submitting in his area of responsibility.


Matthew (Part Fifteen)

Sermon/Bible Study by John W. Ritenbaugh
