America has no chance of winning this war—whatever you might describe as “undefined victory.” There will be no regime change; there will be no destruction of Iran’s nuclear stockpile; and most certainly, there will be no successful invasion of Iran through ground troops. 

America’s allies, especially in Europe, are separating themselves more and more from Trump’s Iran war, and object strongly to his dealing with Russia and his “chaotic geopolitical moves,” being unwilling to “escort ships through the Strait of Hormuz.”

At the same time, this ill-conceived and unprovoked war without any plan for the “Day After” might lead to a “dollar crisis” and an “economic crash worse than the Great Depression”; and oil prices will “march higher and higher” and will “NEVER go back down much again.”

This sermon explores many biblical passages that address faith, hope, and doubt, and explains God’s promise of healing in this life, which is, however, conditional. We also present examples in which God’s supernatural, powerful healing was clearly demonstrated.

Our thoughts are powerful and shape who we become. Modern neuroscience and the Bible affirm that what we repeatedly think can transform our minds and actions. As Christians, we must intentionally guard and guide our thoughts by bringing every thought into captivity to Christ so that our words, actions, and character reflect God’s ways rather than the natural tendencies of the human heart.

What does God require of us to make sure that we overcome when surrounded by difficulties? Knowing what God promises, do we take Him for granted, and are we earnestly prepared for what is just ahead of us?

Without understanding the identity of the twelve tribes of Israel, biblical prophecies make little sense. Their history is written in the Bible, and they do still exist, today! In fact, they will never cease to exist!

In our human lives each day we hear about fake news, tech scams, AI bots, and more, and we must train ourselves to doubt all we confront. This is correct, however, once we’ve been called by God, we must also train ourselves by praying and reading the bible, to do as Jesus commanded: to believe in Him and the Father and have no doubts as to scripture and prophecy. In this sermonette we will review several scriptures that can help us in this regard.

God protects His servants from danger, and He gives warnings that must not be ignored!

The relationship that Jesus Christ has with God the Father is a mystery that most in the world do not understand today. The Jews at the time of Jesus Christ accused Him of blasphemy when He proclaimed His relationship because they didn’t understand the nature of the godhead either! The Bible reveals from the beginning to the end that Jesus Christ is the Son of God the Father, eternally. When He came to live on Earth as a man, He explained this relationship, removing the veil that previously hid God the Father from everyone.

Even though you are called for salvation, you may not aways know exactly what is the specific purpose of your calling NOW, out of billions of people. This message wants to give you some thoughts to ponder. 

The Old Testament book of Hosea—a contemporary of Amos—specifically warns Americans, Britons, and the State of Israel of terrible punishments. His accurate description of the current situation in the USA, England, and Israel should astonish everyone. Why is God so angry with them? And what lessons can we all learn from this?

When we do wrong or say wrong things, do we admit our mistakes and apologize? Or do we deny responsibility, blame someone else and say, “I didn’t make a mistake”? Focusing on Nancy Guthrie, do we understand that under Old Testament rules, a kidnapper was to be put to death? Also, what is our personal thorn in the flesh? Who were all the “Mary’s” in the Bible? What is the future of Ukraine and Taiwan? What is Germany doing in the Gulf region? When will the third temple be built? These and many other questions are discussed in this program.

If you were granted three wishes, which ones would you choose? Would many of those wishes actually come true, and would they be in accordance with God’s Will?

Are you despairing of life? In light of the terrible developments in this world, this might be easy to do, but as Christians, we must not fall into that trap. This does not mean that we close our eyes and ignore what is happening in this world, as these are signs for the soon-coming Return of Jesus Christ. And so, in this program, we are addressing the remarkable military treaty between Germany and Italy and the call for an all-powerful European military leader, as well as the ongoing alienation between the USA and Europe and the terrible situation in Minnesota.

Respect is not optional—it is a pillar of God’s Word that upholds families, communities, and our relationship with Him. This sermon contrasts respect and disrespect across Scripture, showing how love, humility, and reverence produce unity, while pride and contempt lead to division. In a world that is losing respect, God’s people are called to hold the line and reflect His character through proper respect in every relationship.

This sermon discusses the consequences of pride and how some consequences are immediate and some delayed, but that there are always consequences for lack of humility and thinking you are better than others.

Two of the ten commandments were specifically listed, and breaking them was the main reason why Israel was taken into captivity. Breaking one of them was the main reason why Judah was also taken into captivity.

How often have we been confronted with a choice to do something that we knew we shouldn’t do, or to do what we know God commands for us? How do we choose in those situations?

Generosity has effects upon the giver that  are contrary to human intuition. On the surface, the act of giving  takes away from givers, leaving them with less than they started with. However, generosity is not a zero sum game. The Bible reveals that the act of giving brings unique benefits to all of those involved.

The Old Testament book of Amos—part of the “Minor Prophets”—contains many prophecies for our time, as well as timeless admonitions and teachings. Amos describes events leading up to and on the “Day of the Lord,” and divine warnings for many modern nations. How will God punish these nations, through whom, and why? And what does God say to each of us in the book of Amos?

God is calling a special people now for an eternal purpose. He draws them through His Spirit to understand and live by His Word. They must reject the human way and follow Christ’s way of love and obedience. Our mission is to live the gospel and prepare for Christ’s return.
