    The Man of Sin #1

    Daniel chapters 2 and 7 describe five great kingdoms from Babylon to Christ. The God of heaven set up His kingdom during Rome's Empire. John and Jesus preached that kingdom and men pressed into it. The kingdom is not future; true Christians are in it now. Jesus is King. It will last forever.


    1/1/2023 PM
    The Man of Sin #2

    From Daniel to Revelation, God foretold the rise of a blasphemous king after Rome - Paul's Man of Sin. The Roman dragon was destroyed in 476 A.D., but out of its ashes rose the Roman Catholic Church. Though it was allowed to deceive and kill Christians for 1260 years, Jesus will finally destroy it.

    Wrath or Peace (1)

    God has revealed His wrath and the coming day of wrath in the gospel, but few will preach it. Few know the God of the Bible.

    1/15/2023 PM
    Wrath or Peace (2)

    But though God as Potter is willing to show His wrath and power on the wicked, He appointed His elect vessels of mercy to be saved and realize the riches of His glory.

    Wrath or Peace (3)

    God has revealed His wrath and the coming day of wrath in the gospel, but few will preach it. Few know the God of the Bible.

    1/22/2023 PM
    Wrath or Peace (4)

    But though God as Potter is willing to show His wrath and power on the wicked, He appointed His elect vessels of mercy to be saved and realize the riches of His glory.

    Victorious Christian Living (2)

    Further identifying marks of a victorious Christian, who grows in grace, knowledge, service, and zeal in Christ's kingdom.

    Neglected Facts of Jesus’ Death

    We have studied in detail the categories of our Lord's suffering before - physical, psychological, spiritual, and divine. This very simple review is of a few facts commonly overlooked by Christians about our Lord's death. May you Kiss the Son by reviewing the details of what He did to save you.


    2/12/2023 AM
    Victorious Christian Living (3)

    Key facts to remember for victorious living are why God left us here with a sinful flesh in a sinful world. There are seven broad reasons He did so, and they are quite helpful to live intentional lives for God's glory and His approval and rewards. His reasons are also our goals for living right.


    2/12/2023 PM
    Victorious Christian Living (4)

    A victorious Christian is a growing one with fruit rather than funks. One of our greatest enemies is bad thinking. Your thoughts are not helpful to serve God better. Too many of them are foolish and sinful. You must hate any funks and not try to excuse them by ruling your thoughts to choose godliness.


    2/19/2023 AM
    Victorious Christian Living (5)

    A victorious Christian life is confident living, kingdom building, and intentional living. It is necessary to view each night and day, in that order, with the clear goal to obey Christ fully. Your greatest enemy is yourself, and you must force all feelings to follow faith, no matter how powerful they may seem to be.


    2/19/2023 PM
    Victorious Christian Living (6)

    To be victorious you must believe that God forgives easily, quickly, and fully. Any ideas to the contrary are sinfully wrong and will defeat and discourage you. Look to Jesus as your example going before, see difficulties as opportunities like Job and Paul did, and get competitive to be the best in God's sight.


    2/26/2023 AM
    Victorious Christian Living (7)

    To be an overcomer, you should look to the reward like Jesus did. You must guard your inputs vigilantly, you should be the most thankful person, you should pray for it, and you should look to the effect. Remember that your defeated Christian life or a joyful, winning one will affect all those around you.


    2/26/2023 PM
    Victorious Christian Living (8)

    To be an overcomer, you must count the cost and give up things that compete with Christ. He taught the lesson to crowds that followed Him. You must walk in the Spirit for His power to resist temptations inside and out. Victorious living is the life of faith, so you must build your faith by preaching.

    Victorious Christian Living (9)

    Paul knew he had fought, finished, and kept the faith. So were Job, David, Timothy and several women. Paul taught regeneration provided the power for you to do so. VCL is not ordinary - it is exceptional. It is living with the kingdom as your priority and it is measured by the heart and souls helped.


    3/12/2023 PM
    Victorious Christian Living (10)

    VCL is more than bare faith - it is delight in God with great fervency and zeal. The world pursues its goals, like sports, with great zeal, and we should have similar zeal for Him and His kingdom. Life is often too busy and chaotic for intentional VCL, so you must slow down and simplify your life to succeed.


    3/15/2023 PM
    A Review of 1 John Slides

    A fast snapshot of each chapter to overview the 105 verses in John's comforting epistle instead of 47 sermons.


    3/19/2023 AM
    Victorious Christian Living (11)

    VCL requires strategic effort to pray like Hezekiah and Nehemiah - Remember me. It is an earthly engagement, so reject monastic desire for heaven. It is not legal righteousness; it is your personal righteousness by obedience to secure God's approval. Evil will come, but rise above it.


    3/19/2023 PM
    Victorious Christian Living (12)

    Keep going. Let nothing stop or slow you. Perseverance is faithfulness. Reject every weight that might slow you down, even if it is not sin. Moderation balances all aspects of life to maximize fruitfulness. Get zealous, for intensity helps. Habits can help by daily duty. If you fall, repent and get back up.


    3/26/2023 AM
    Victorious Christian Living (13)

    Why did God give the ministry? To help you live victoriously. What is VCL? It is God's best for your life. How can you lose it? Choose to be a loner and lose the necessary benefit of your local church. Or you can rest on your laurels, when you should be running the rest of your race even better and faster.


    3/26/2023 PM
    Victorious Christian Living (14)

    You lose VCL by choking on circumstances. God arranged each part of your life. Accept it and live above it, not under it. Guard use of alcohol, lest it hurts your efforts and reputation for Christ. Do not let past failures defeat you. The best of men fall, but they rise up to engage again. Triumph today!

    God’s Peculiar Treasure (1)

    God loves His people in a greater and more personal way than most know. Learn His choice of them to be His peculiar treasure and other related terms and descriptions. He set His love on them in eternity in His Son Jesus by covenant, and we are the barely believable beneficiaries of His great drama.


    4/2/2023 PM
    God’s Peculiar Treasure (2)

    God loves His people in a greater and more personal way than most know. Learn His choice of them to be His peculiar treasure and other related terms and descriptions. He set His love on them in eternity in His Son Jesus by covenant, and we are the barely believable beneficiaries of His great drama.

    Throne Room Reminders Slides

    God gave John a view of the throne room in Revelation chapters 1 and 4-5. These slides review the high points of those chapters to identify and interpret some of the symbols not understood by many. Bask in the high honor to be part of the inner circle in heaven. Praise God and the Lamb.


    4/16/2023 AM
    Victorious Christian Living (15)

    Recall seven reasons why God left us here. Average Christian is not VCL; most churches are not. How can you lose VCL? You can choose carnal, foolish, worldly friends. Or you can become too dependent on any relationship, so that you will compromise knowingly or not to keep the relationship.


    4/16/2023 PM
    Victorious Christian Living (16)

    Music is the powerful language of the soul. David played the harp to heal Saul's devil-afflicted soul. You do not have the right to any music. You must glorify God and use music that will lift your spirit toward heaven. Measure all music by its fruit in producers, performers, listeners, and churches using it.


    4/19/2023 PM
    Above and Beyond Slides

    Great lovers of God did more than bare duty worshiping and serving Him. Why would you stop at what is expected or minimum? He did far more than reasonable to adopt us. Let us look for extra ways we can delight in Him and glorify Him like David did planning and paying for Solomon's temple.


    4/23/2023 AM
    Church Purity (#1) Slides

    Paul's jealousy for purity of the church at Corinth was his devotion to the Bridegroom - Jesus Christ. He was not jealous for affection for himself but rather for Jesus Christ. Here are the means God ordained to protect His churches from heresy and sinners to be all they should be for His Son.


    4/23/2023 PM
    Church Purity (#2) Slides

    Righteous Relationships Slides

    The second command is to love others. The Bible teaches how all life relationships are to be treated. Here is a chart of the many relationships with God's rules for each. Growing in favor with God and men, the highest goal of life, requires learning and doing the duties of each relationship.


    5/7/2023 PM
    A Fountain Filled with Blood

    Zechariah 13:1 is a prophecy of a fountain for sin and uncleanness. In a context of prophecies about Jesus, the fountain is a metaphor for the blood of Christ washing away our sins. William Cowper wrote the song, "There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood" which guarantees eternal life for all elect.


    5/14/2023 AM
    Twelve Facts for Christians (1)

    God saved His elect and empowered them to right thinking. Bible preaching changes how we think to increase faith, hope, and wisdom against the hopeless folly and insanity of the world. We start with the great uncertainly of natural life and contrast it to the guaranteed glory of eternal life.


    5/14/2023 PM
    Twelve Facts for Christians (2)

    With the golden parachute of guaranteed eternal life, we can manage and profit by the trials and tribulations of uncertain life in this world. Not only has God saved us for eternity, His choices rule our lives here and now with incredible blessings, if we take the time to consider His loving providence.


    5/21/2023 AM
    Twelve Facts for Christians (3)

    The sin Adam chose in Eden and we choose daily pervades all parts of life, and it should be identified to avoid misjudging things, persons, relationships. God is greater than man and can do what He wants with your life, like He did Job. We should never blame, complain, or even question Him. He is God.


    5/21/2023 PM
    Twelve Facts for Christians (4)

    Safety in life brings everything back to the Bible - all thoughts, ideas, choices, plans, events, etc. It should be taught daily to children. Your ideas can never be better. Period. Success in life before God and men is by fruit, not results, feelings, or words. Fruit is identified in the Bible. Abound in it.


    5/28/2023 AM
    Twelve Facts for Christians (5)

    Because God created you and saved you by a great price, you are not your own - you are His in every part of your life. He demands all your love and then for you to love others He puts in your life. You should never surmise about what God is doing in another's life, for you do not know His infinite will or them.


    5/28/2023 PM
    Twelve Facts for Christians (6)

    The world explodes with information, but they are no closer to truth. Beware of the distraction of inputs by electronics in your life. Do not tempt God by questioning Him, provoking Him by presumptuous sins, or taking foolish risks. Prayer changes things and should be a main part of your life.


    6/4/2023 AM
    The Greatest Love of All (1)

    The world is insane about love, for they think self-love is the greatest. But the eternal, intentional, intimate love the Creator God Jehovah had for His Son Jesus is the greatest love of all, and it can be seen through the pages of the Bible as God glorified, protected, and avenged His Son.


    6/4/2023 PM
    The Greatest Love of All (2)

    God's great love for His Son is glorious to study and consider, but He loves His elect children with equal love. Incredible! The Bible says so, which should move believers to honor the Son to honor the Father through Him. Communion is a special event and action to celebrate God's love for us.


    6/7/2023 AM
    Some Shall Not Taste of Death Slides

    Some lived to see Jerusalem destroyed in 70 A.D., but many are ignorant of that event and corrupt Jesus' prophecy. If you love Jesus as King and Prophet, do not let men steal this great prophecy that sheds light on other 70 A.D. prophecies. Rejoice in His real authority, power, and revenge.


    6/11/2023 AM
    Victorious Christian Living (17)

    Review is necessary after a break of several weeks. Hearing truth is not enough, but hearing, retaining, and obeying. God has promised great blessings to overcomers. The key is daily focus and intentional living to obey and glorify God in everything you do, rather than let life happen and control you.


    6/11/2023 PM
    Victorious Christian Living (18)

    We reviewed eight ways VCL can be lost - these were covered in sermons #13-#16. Your life ambition(s) are crucial to success or not - for ambition in other areas, no matter how noble, distract from the war. Paul even warned about marriage, which should cause fear of other distractions.


    6/18/2023 AM
    Victorious Christian Living (19)

    VCL is to be accepted by God now and to hear, Well done, thou good and faithful servant, when we meet him. You can lose VCL by distracting ambitions, indulging in spiritual vacations, aim at nothing, poorly manage time, procrastinate conviction, and lose your first love of God and Jesus Christ.


    6/25/2023 AM
    Victorious Christian Living (20)

    VCL is by faith, not feelings, so emotions are ruled to follow faith, not lead or control your life. Entertainment today of television, movies, Internet, social media, magazines, etc., must be carefully limited. At all times Jesus Christ must be constantly the main goal, for character without Him is nothing.


    6/25/2023 PM
    Victorious Christian Living (21)

    God has not only told us what to do but also how to do it - He wants cheerful givers and happy, joyful Christians. Kings required it of servants; we should be constantly thrilled to serve Him. You cannot neglect nutrition - Bible reading, prayer, preaching, and godly music and friends to grow and bear fruit.


    7/2/2023 AM
    The Pardon of the Cross (1)

    If GOD Jehovah charged us for our sins, not one of us could stand. We are on death row for Adam's sin and for our own sins. God cannot acquit or clear the guilty or wicked. But He does pardon and forgive some. How? Through the substitutionary life and death of Jesus Christ. You are pardoned. Rejoice!


    7/2/2023 PM
    The Pardon of the Cross (2)

    If GOD Jehovah charged us for our sins, not one of us could stand. We are on death row for Adam's sin and for our own sins. God cannot acquit or clear the guilty or wicked. But He does pardon and forgive some. How? Through the substitutionary life and death of Jesus Christ. You are pardoned. Rejoice!


    7/9/2023 AM
    Victorious Christian Living (22)

    How can we lose VCL? Allow funks or moods to destroy fruitbearing. Allow bitterness that gives Satan leverage in your life. Talk folly to yourself instead of talking faith. Allow anxiety, which is opposite of faith, peace, and joy. Accept religious routine and lose passionate first love of being hot for Christ.


    7/9/2023 PM
    Victorious Christian Living (23)

    There are ten rules of winners to close out this sermon series. Great Christians, similar to world-class athletes, have certain traits that give them an advantage over others. It is your wisdom to consider these rules, embrace them as being valuable, and then apply them in your daily approach to life.


    7/16/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (1)

    God sent His Son to earth, and He preached the greatest sermon recorded in the Bible. This is a very simple application of Jesus doctrine that we should follow for proof of eternal life and to please God now. There are 21 lessons in our Lord's Sermon, but many mini-lessons within the large one.


    7/23/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (2)

    Here is a review of the Sermon in general, a review of the first seven beatitudes, and then the application of the other beatitudes and the Lord's lessons through 5:13. If you want greater fellowship with God and His Son, then learn and live these lessons, for they will bless you now and save you later.


    7/23/2023 PM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (3)

    The width and depth of this Sermon has no peer. God gave our Lord great wisdom to declare God's will for us (5:14-28). A few verses at a time, Jesus taught lessons of righteousness we should crave to learn and apply each day. This is the straight gate and narrow way that leads to life for only a few.


    7/26/2023 PM
    David’s Mighty Men Slides

    The divine library (Bible) has it all, even unmatched special forces that fought for David. These elite men and their ranks are recorded. Even Philistines loved David. God called men to be soldiers against several enemies, and the Bible details are encouraging for boys and men to consider.


    7/30/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (4)

    Being a light in the world includes kindness to adorn and beautify duty and godliness. After our relationships, Jesus warned about fantasies and sexual temptations; then He taught to limit swearing, which the Jews abused often. His lessons keep coming to lead us to abundant living and eternal life.


    7/30/2023 PM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (5)

    Are you careful with your speech to avoid foolish or filthy expletives or euphemisms? Listen and learn how corrupt and depraved speech can be. Hate revenge. Let small offences slide. God will take care of you. Love enemies to be perfect like God and to prove your adoption as a son of God.


    8/2/2023 PM
    Secret Code for Bible Prophecy Slides

    The book of Daniel has great prophecies of world history from 500 BC to the end. They are in chapters 2 and 7-12. However, the prophecies have timing phrases that have confused many, for they cannot be treated the same, though written similarly. Rightly divide for God's approval and no shame!


    8/6/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (6)

    God loved Israel by speaking to them by the prophets, but He has spoken to us by His Son. The Sermon on the Mount is written proof. Modest giving and praying is crucial to please God by the rules of Jesus. Lessons include rules for rewards, God seeing all good deeds, and Jesus' extreme wording.


    8/6/2023 PM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (7)

    Never be intimidated by vain boasting by some of how long they pray. Jesus taught against vain repetitions and much speaking. You can pray concisely, be heard better, and pray more often for more things with greater joy. The Lord's prayer is a great outline. His forgiveness requires you forgiving others.


    8/13/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (8)

    Memorize the five parts of prayer. Forgive everyone; flush all offences. Fast modestly - not like Catholics, who make a public show during Lent to defy Jesus. Make investments in heaven, not on earth. Do everything as to the Lord. Set your heart on Him. You will never be disappointed. You will be thrilled.


    8/13/2023 PM
    The Everlasting God and Gospel

    For thousands of years, He ignored Gentiles, while He chose Israel as His only nation and church. But then God sent out the command for the gospel to be preached to us, and the number of Gentile converts far exceeded the number of Jewish ones. Jesus' death ended the differences between us for one church.


    8/16/2023 AM
    Gentile Jewels from Isaiah Slides

    God ignored Gentiles for 4000 yrs, winking at their idolatry, but then He ordered His gospel to go to them, and they greatly increased the small Jewish church of John, Jesus, apostles. Isaiah foretold this great event, and these slides rush through 62 glorious verses about it. Pick a favorite!


    8/20/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (9)

    Christians must have a single goal - to serve God. They cannot serve God and the world; they are opposites. They should not worry, for spiritual things are most important, God can provide, worry does no good, they deny faith by worry, putting God's kingdom first He will provide, all that matters is today.


    8/27/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (10)

    Matthew 7:1 is the most abused practical verse in the Bible, often hurled about as if no one should criticize anything. It rather warns against judging harshly or judging hypocritically. Let Jesus warn you against thinking, speaking, or working on others' little motes while you have bigger beams. Work on your beams!


    9/17/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (11)

    Matthew 7:6 is a lesson from most ignore, for they reject Jesus' criticism of fools and scorners, which He called dogs and pigs. Such men do not deserve truth, and Jesus taught us to protect the truth from them and to protect ourselves from their violent tendencies against anyone correcting them.


    9/17/2023 PM
    Know God or Known of God

    Paul told the Galatians (4:9) their conversion was knowing God, but their salvation was better understood as Him knowing them. God has known His elect from eternity. He set His love on them then and wrote their names in the book of life. No one else that might know you can do anything for you.


    9/24/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (12)

    Jesus gave us great encouragement to pray in five verses. He could not have stated the offer better. Here is not a command to pray or rules against improper prayer but rather powerful persuasion that God will answer prayer and will answer prayer abundantly. Believers should rejoice to pray more often.


    9/24/2023 PM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (13)

    A review of a simple guidelines or rules for effectual (effective) praying. Not all prayers are heard, for God has warned of errors in the character or conduct of the one praying, errors in prayer content, errors in spirit, etc. These guidelines are useful for praying more efficiently and a review of powerful results.


    10/1/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (14)

    The golden rule should be understand and expanded to include personal preferences and spiritual goals. Even the O.T. law and prophets has great wisdom. Worldly religion is easy and popular, but Jesus calls us to follow Him in the strait and narrow religion, where there will be a few saved to heaven.


    10/1/2023 PM
    Shiloh and Gathering the People

    On his deathbed Jacob prophesied of a great ruler coming from Judah, named Shiloh, who would gather the people of God. Both the Old and New Testaments give many fulfillments of this work of Jesus Christ to gather the elect together into the family of God - legally, vitally, practically, finally.


    10/4/2023 PM
    The Genius of the O.T. Laws Slides

    The ceremonial laws of Moses' religion were beggarly, earthly, weak. They were obscure shadows of good things coming. They passed away with John, Jesus, and His apostles. But the moral and national laws of the Jews are divinely brilliant and worth praise. Much can be learned by their study.


    10/8/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (15)

    As Jesus began to close His Sermon, He warned against false teachers that would seek to take hearers away from the truth He had preached. The warning is strong - Beware! These lying deceivers would be against His straight and narrow way, and at Judgment would be exposed as reprobates.


    10/8/2023 PM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (16)

    False teachers have done great damage in both testaments. The blessing of God's word and right preaching is precious. Thank God for it! Many children of God have endured seasons without revelation. False teachers in the N.T. began while the apostles were still alive. It has only gotten worse since.


    10/15/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (17)

    Jesus warned there would be many false preachers, disguised and dangerous as hungry wolves. They appeared quickly, even while the apostles were alive. And they would not go away, for God would use them to show His children that He approved of.


    10/15/2023 PM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (18)

    False prophets, due to ignorance or malice, never tell you they are deceivers. So the children of God must be on the lookout for them, thus Jesus cried, Beware! You must not foolishly or ignorantly believe what you hear or from whom. Be vigilant. Be critical.


    10/18/2023 PM
    Sheep Clothing of False Prophets Slides

    Jesus warned in His Sermon on the Mount that false prophets (teachers) were wolves that would deceive hearers by appearing in sheep clothing. Here are many examples of the sheep clothing used by false teachers today. Exercise your senses and teach your children to identify these creeping heretics.


    10/22/2023 AM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (19)

    Jesus warned of false preachers coming as sheep, but they would actually be ravening wolves. This grave danger must be known and remembered for the children of God to protect themselves. False prophets and their lies corrupt the good of Bible Christianity.


    10/22/2023 PM
    Sermon on the Mount Lessons (20)

    What kind of sheep's clothing do wolves use to hide themselves? Get ready and think! Here are some of 50 kinds of false prophets that come with exciting and popular approaches to the ministry, but they and their methods are condemned by the Bible.


    10/29/2023 AM

    Fruit is God's way to test teachers to expose false ones. Like fruitless trees, fruitless preachers are discarded. Fruit is the key over any other measure. Church members must learn the Bible, teach it to children, stay vigilant against heretics inside or outside, and help and pray for their pastor.
