The Pure in Heart

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

It is the core of our heart that must be cleansed before we can have a pure heart, enabling us to see God as He is.


Think on These Things (2018)

Sermonette by James Beaubelle

Our annual, self-inflicted review of self can be humbling and even painful. We have a measure of control over our carnality which those in the world lack.


The W's and H's of Meditation (Conclusion)

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by David F. Maas

Because we will ultimately turn into what we assimilate, we must take back the hijacked tool of meditation to drive out carnal thoughts.


As Much as Depends on You

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

Though we are sometimes confronted with conflict, we have a duty to make peace through exercising love. Unity and peace are fruits of God's Spirit.


Meditate on These Things

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

We must avoid shallow thinking, developing spiritual depth by meditating upon God's creation, His truth, His Law and His standards of righteousness.


The Commandments (Part Nineteen)

Sermon/Bible Study by John W. Ritenbaugh

Jesus taught that all outward sin stems from inner inordinate desire. What we desire or lust after automatically becomes our idol.


Philippians (Part Ten)

Sermon/Bible Study by John W. Ritenbaugh

God's Rest (Part 4)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Coveting—lust—is a fountainhead of many other sins. Desiring things is not wrong, but desiring someone else's things promotes overtly sinful behavior.


Maintaining Good Health (Part 10)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Even though we are already damaged goods when God calls us, by embracing God's truth and seeking His help, we can break the bad habits which enslave us.


Our Part in the Sanctification Process (Part Ten): Cultivating the Fruit of Self Control

Sermon by David F. Maas

It is impossible to cultivate self-control unless one uses God's Spirit to reprogram the desires of the heart from self-centeredness to submission to God.


How Our Joy May Be Full!

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by Martin G. Collins

Joy and gladness are gifts from God, resulting from Christ living His life in us and helping us to love the brethren. This love is perfected through suffering.
