HEBREWS 11:3-4

November 4, 2018   I’m not going to wade into the current political climate in which we find ourselves.  Record numbers of voters have already turned out in early voting – most will go to the polls this Tuesday to cast their votes.  I encourage you to do so. Here’s my question – why?  I […]

HEBREWS 11:1-2

October 28, 2018 https://abfmessages.org/Podcasts/2018_10_29_091727.mp3   It’s the time of year we call the Holidays.  Stores start decorating, advertisements start bombarding us.  Stretching from Halloween, through Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s, most enjoy these special days for different reasons – family, friends, fun, food, feasts and festivities.  And of course, candy.  Of course, when I said […]

HEBREWS 10:32-39

October 21, 2018   Most of us know, likely by experience, that new believers and new churches are much better at evangelism than older, established, seasoned, mature believers and churches.  That is, the so called conversion-growth-rate is much higher in new churches than established church.  What is the conversion growth rate?  The number of new […]

HEBREWS 10:26-31

October 14, 2018 [Audio currently unavailable]   I’m sure most of you are aware of the current, passionate disagreement that exists in the church regarding both the reality and the duration of hell.  There are basically three positions – again, within the church – that you can hold: First is to deny the existence of […]

PSALM 50

September 30, 2018   Good morning. If you have your Bible, turn to Psalm 50. Over the past few months, we’ve been studying the book of Hebrews. As you know, this letter was written to a group of discouraged Jewish Christians. Apparently, many of these news believers had decided to go back to an Old […]

HEBREWS 10:19-25

September 23, 2018   The numbers are all over the place, depending on where you get the stats.  The Gallup polls suggest U.S. church attendance has remained about the same for decades – close to 40% of Americans say they attend church about once a week.   There are others, however, who suggest church attendance […]

HEBREWS 10:11-18

September 16, 2018   It is difficult to determine the most-printed books of all time, but everyone agrees the number one book, with an estimated 5-6 billion printed, is the Bible.  If included on the NY Times monthly best-seller list, it would always be number 1. I suppose the reasons they don’t include it are, […]

HEBREWS 9:23-28

September 2, 2018   While the quote may have originated with Christopher Bullock in 1716, it was Benjamin Franklin who made it famous in a letter to a friend in 1789, when he wrote, “Our new Constitution is now established, and has an appearance that promises permanency; but in this world nothing can be said […]

HEBREWS 9:15-22

August 26, 2018   The story is told of a husband and wife who had a miserable marriage – largely because the man was a tyrant.  He was just plain mean.  On his deathbed, he told his wife, I want you to convert all our assets to cash, put it in a suitcase, and leave […]
