1 John 5:21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
This is the last time the phrase “Little children” is found in the Bible. Those referred to here are ones who have been born again, children of God, most likely brought to Christ by John. But it does bring up a point that we can make today, that our children, our young people are being lost to the idols of the world. Parents today seem willing to rush them to […]
Matt 18:3-6 3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.
6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him […]
Josh 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

Luke 5:1-6 And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,
2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.
3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and […]
Ps 127:1-2 Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.
2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.
Verse one of our text this morning is not from the book of Proverbs, but it certainly is a wise saying. How many things are being […]
Heb 11:1-6 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

Prov 30:5-6 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.
6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
Three times God warns man not to tamper with His Word, in Deut., here in Proverbs, and in Rev. The warning at the end of the book of Revelation is the most well known, but the warning here in Proverbs gives some insight […]

21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
To believe the first verse of the Bible, as we saw yesterday, causes one to look with great anticipation to the last verses of the Bible. In the next to the last verse of God’s Word it is underscored that all of His Word in true. “He which testifieth […]
Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the Heaven and the earth.
What if people really believed this verse, what if nations believed it, if families believed it, if people really believed this verse? Do you think that would make the difference in the world today, if people really believed the very first verse of the Bible, would that make a difference in the world today? It most certainly would and the reason it would make a difference is because if […]
1 Thess 4:13-18 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord […]
