As ambassadors, we have the responsibility to be lights, quietly modeling God's Law in our lives by exemplifying the fruits of the Spirit continuously.


Don't Be Indifferent (1995)

We cannot allow ourselves to become surfeited with the world's distractions, being lulled off to sleep as the foolish virgins, wasting our precious time.


The End Is Not Yet

God's people do a disservice to the cause of truth when they allow the media-hype to trigger a false hope about Jesus Christ's return being imminent.


Does Doctrine Really Matter? (Part Four)

Satan can fine-tune the course of this world (Zeitgeist), customizing it depending on whom he may seek to murder. We need to be thinking and vigilant.


Would Our God Do That?

The distorted perception of Jesus as an effeminate and ineffective Savior fails to understand that He is the so-called stern God of the Old Testament.


Lamentations (Part Seven; 1989)

Sermon/Bible Study by John W. Ritenbaugh
