A Silenced World

    A Silenced World, by Dr. David P. Murray

The text for this sermon is Romans 3:19:

"Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them that are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God."


New Technology Discovers What Appears to Be Noah's Ark, Where Bible Says it Docked

 New Technology Discovers What Appears to Be Noah's Ark, Where Bible Says it Docked - israel365news.com

Excerpt from this article:

"A Massive shape that appears to match the Bible's description of Noah's Ark has been discovered by archaeologists using 3D scans reports the US Sun."

----------------------------------

I think it would be a wonderful thing if Noah's Ark were discovered. And for the Christian it would only strengthen their faith. But I'm not sure a lot of people would come to a saving faith in our Lord Jesus just because Noah's Ark were found. The Bible says "Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God." (Romans 10:17). Faith doesn't come by finding Noah's Ark - buried for the past 4,500 years.  

Anyway, Noah's Ark has already been discovered. Here is the website for it?

I don't know if young Jews think about this, but nearly all Jews who grew up in the decades following the Holocaust often wondered: Would this non-Jew hide me?"

The Bible says, "Let no man deceive you by any means, but that day shall not come unless there come a falling away first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition, who opposeth and exalteth himself above God."- 2 Thessalonians 2:3,4a (Audio)


For more on this "Falling Away", check out the following podcast by Pastor Kevin Swanson:

The Bible also says, "For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel until the fulness of the Gentiles come in. And so all Israel shall be saved..." - Romans 11:25,26a (Audio)

There are many who believe we may be very close to the time when this "blindness" is lifted and Jews all over the world will accept our Lord Jesus as their long-awaited Messiah! And when that happens - and it will happen! - the following Jewish hymn may be slightly rewritten so it could be included in our Christian hymnbooks - Minyan Man

Daily Sermon for the Hearing Impaired: Ups and Downs of God's Providence

Ups and Downs of God's Providence, by Pastor Russ [Text: Genesis 40 (Audio)]]

Note: This daily sermon for the hearing impaired is dedicated to my good friend, David J. Bishop, who went home to be with his Lord Jesus on July 1, 2021. David was the inspiration for me to begin posting links to sermons for the hearing impaired. David's not deaf any more. And the first words he heard were from our Lord Jesus, saying to him, "Well done, David, thou good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of thy Lord!" [Matthew 25:21 (Audio)]

Here is one of the last pictures David sent to me before he died. He was a big sports fan and LOVED the Seattle Seahawks! But David loved our Lord Jesus much, much more!


 "Whosoever calleth upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." - Romans 10:13

"My friend I stand in Judgment now
And feel that your to blame somehow.
While on this earth I walked with you day by day
And never did you point the way.

"You knew the Lord in truth and glory,
But never did you tell the story.
My knowledge then was very dim,
You could have led me safe to him.

"Though we lived together here on earth
You never told me of the second birth.
And now I stand this day condemned,
Because you failed to mention him.

 "You taught me many things, that's true,
I called you friend, and trusted you.
But now I learned, now it's too late,
You could have kept me from this fate.

"We walked by day and talked by night,
And yet you showed me not the light.
You let me live, love and die,
And all the while you knew I'd never live on high.

 "Yes, I called you friend in life,
And trusted you in joy and strife.
Yet in coming to this end,
I see you really weren't my friend!"
-My Friend, by D.J. Higgins

I Saw the Dead, by Dr. David P. Murray

This somber gospel sermon is based on the following Biblical text:

Revelation 20:11-15

"And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.  And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.  And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."

Daily Quote for Thursday, September 30, 2021

 "Whenever you run a clandestine operation, you run two things at the same time: you prepare the team for the hit, and you keep it so small there's nobody to spread it all around. And across the hall is a big staff working on what we call special plans. They're preparing the cover story. The cover story is what they want people to believe and to talk about, and to argue about." - From a 1992 speech by Col. Fletcher Prouty, former chief of special operations, Joint Chief of Staff (as quoted in Deep Truth: The Lives of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein)

Daily Quotes for Wednesday, September 29, 2021

The following quotes are from The Sinfulness of Sin by Ralph Venning (1621-1643):

 "This night your soul may be taken from you, and you may be in hell tomorrow."  


"As men sow in this seed time they shall reap in that harvest."  

These are just 2 of the gems from Ralph Venning's little book, 

"There will be no sleeping in hell."

"'But you only have to repent' says sin, 'God will forgive you.' To this we must say that he who has promised forgiveness to those who repent, has not promised repentance to them that sin."

"They will be in this like the burning bush, which was burnt with fire, but not consumed. As the church was on earth, so sinners will be in hell."

"Most of the past time in the world is lost time, but sinning time, or time spent in sin, is worst than lost, for it must be accounted for."

"To pay so dear a price for so vile a commodity. To pay according to the rate of heaven and be put off with hell."

"Will you be damned? Can you think calmly of going to hell? Have you no pity on your poor soul?"

"Holiness is the Beuty of earth and of heaven. They who jeer and scoff at holiness and rejoice that they are none of the holy ones, might as well make bone fires, ring the bells, and give thanks that they shall never be saved. For if they are not holy, saved they cannot be."

"To pluck out you right eye or cut off your right hand would be a pleasure in comparison to being damned in hell. A burning fever is nothing to burning in hell. Of all the miseries which have been undergone by all men it would be nothing in hell."

"If thunder, lightening, and earthquakes make men afraid and shrink together, what will hell do? If the throbbing of a toothache or gnawing of gout puts men to excruciating pain, what will hell do?"

"When men please themselves with thoughts of their past sins, when they chew the cud and lick their lips after it...then they do the sin over and over again by thinking of it."

"Nebuchadnezzar's furnace was terrible, especially when heated seven times more than usual, yet hell is a worse furnace of fire. Those who do iniquity (who are sin makers by trade), shall be cast into a furnace of fire which shall not devour them, but shall torment them and make them wail and gnash their teeth."

"It is said that thoughts are free. They are indeed free with respect to the world who cannot judge us for them. But God can and will."

"So to work out his own salvation with fear and trembling. They who live in sin, however, work out their own damnation, and that many times without fear or trembling. But they will have a great store of these when they come to receive their just doom and damnation. Time is a most precious commodity, for eternity depends upon the moment."

"There will be degrees of torment in hell, although it will be intolerable for all."

"It's as if the sinner should say to the Lord in the Day of Judgment, 'Have mercy on me.'
'Have mercy upon you?' says God. 'No, I will have no mercy upon you. There was a time when you might have had mercy without judgment, but now you shall have judgment without mercy. Depart! Depart!'
If they should then beg and say, 'Lord, if we must depart, let it be from Thy throne of judgment, but not from Thee.'
'No,' says the Lord. 'Depart from me. Depart form my presence, which is joy. Depart, and go to hell!'
'Lord,' they say, 'seeing we must be gone, bless us before we go, that Thy blessing may be upon us.'
'Oh no,' says God, 'Go with a curse. Depart ye cursed.'
'Oh Lord, if we must go from Thee, let us not go into the place of torment, but appoint a place, if not of pleasure, then of ease.'
'No, depart into fire, burning and tormenting flames.'
'Oh Lord, if into fire, let it be only for a little while. For who can dwell in everlasting burning?'
'No! Neither you nor the fire shall know an end. Be gone into everlasting fire.'
'Lord, then let it be long before we go there.'
'No, depart immediately. The sentence shall be immediately put into execution.'
'Oh Lord, let us at least have good company who will pity us, though they cannot help us.'
'No, you shall have none but the tormenting devils. Those whom you obeyed when they were your tempters shall be with you as tormentors.'
What misery sin has brought on man to bring him to hear this dreadful doom."
