The Covenants, Grace, and Law (Part Five)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Under both the Old and New Covenants, refusal to keep to keep God's Law severs the relationship. God's law protects us and brings us quality life.

A Nation of Laws?

CGG Weekly by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

Americans love law in principle, but when the law begins to squeeze them and their accustomed lifestyles, it becomes acceptable to ignore the offending law.

Works of Faith (Part Two)

'Ready Answer' by Staff

God's spiritual law, encapsulated in the Ten Commandments and demonstrated in the life of Jesus Christ, reveals His way of life, which we must emulate.

The Works of the Devil Destroyed

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

Satan and his demons know that their time is short and are determined to destroy as many people as possible, especially the Israel of God.

Acts (Part Nine)

Sermon/Bible Study by John W. Ritenbaugh

Stephen's martyrdom and his compassion on his persecutors, followed by the reaction against his brutal murder, resulted in a rapid spreading of the Gospel.

Is it Salvational?

Sermonette by David C. Grabbe

It is easy to denigrate a matter as not being 'salvational,' but the real question to ask is, How will this action affect my relationship with God?

Elements of Motivation (Part Four)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Because we have been bought with an awesome price, we have no right to pervert our lives, but are obligated to look upon our bodies as vessels in His service.

Thou Shall Not Covet

Sermon by John O. Reid

Because virtually every sin begins as a desire in the mind, the command against coveting (lustful cravings) could be the key to keeping the other commandments.

Many Excuses

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

We need to avoid the trap of self-justification, allowing our hasty words to lure us into sin. We must be quick to listen, and slow to speak.

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.

Deuteronomy (Part 4)

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

If we learn to fear and love God, loyalty, faithfulness and commandment-keeping will naturally follow, and we will instinctively hasten to depart from evil.

Government (Part Four)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

For us to take on the glory of God, we must have the same kind of access to the Father as Christ did, taking on the responsibility of behaving like His sons.

Differences of Opinion

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

Satan champions self-opinion and mob behavior. God's church has never been immune to division because each member has only part of the truth.

Authority and Government

Sermon by John O. Reid

Too many feel that they are above the law, but paradoxically, laws proliferate when corruption prevails. We must be subject to all law, God's and man's.

Use God's Word as a Mirror

Sermonette by Bill Cherry

Be doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. If you merely hear God's Word without acting on it, you risk self-deception. For if anyone is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. God's Word serves as a mirror, reflecting the true state of who you are, but failing to act on what you see is like forgetting your own reflection. However, he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does. By continually living by God's Word with the right attitude, you will find blessing in your actions. God commands us to be doers of His Word for several reasons. First, God's Word begets us; it is the source of our nourishment and spiritual growth, penetrating our hearts and prompting change. Second, we are called to be firstfruits of His creatures, examples and teachers who use God's Word as a textbook to guide our lives and relationships, learning patterns that shape us for this life and beyond. Third, failing to do God's Word leads to self-deception; without action, we fool ourselves into thinking hearing alone is enough, missing the transformation that comes from living it out. Therefore, look into God's Word, continue in it daily, and be a doer, not merely a hearer, to avoid deception and to receive the promised blessing.

Maintaining Good Health (Part 11)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Human nature takes chances, assuming the day of reckoning will come later, not sooner. We cannot ignore truth or God's laws without paying a horrific price.
