International Gospel Hour

Love rescues; Love is the payment and Love intercedes. How thankful we are that God is love and all He has done and will do for mankind.

Words as seek, believe and come lead one to eventually obey. Many seek, many believe and many come, but obedience is the decision that makes the difference.

“Come to me…” Beautiful words from God, Jesus and the Spirit. And further beauty is when one comes to Jesus, Jesus will answer the needs of man. Let’s study the word “come.”

A confession of faith continues as a commitment of faith. Believing in God embraces all and everything in our obedience to God. “Without faith it is impossible to please him…” (Heb. 11:6).

“Seek and you shall find,” “Seek first the kingdom of God.” In Christianity, when one seeks, one will find the joy, the peace and the salvation in Christ.

“The Savior’s Way” series of lessons continues looking at the church—specifically how one is added to the church through salvation in Christ.

We are blessed to remember the radio work of the late David Pharr as we consider a message from the present and a lesson from the past.

Hope that is set or fixed upon Christ and IN Christ is hope that is not a mere guess, but confident in Christ. What does it take to rest our hope?

Let’s once again spend time in the Psalms with International Gospel Hour’s “PsalmCast” as we see the Lord’s Superiority.

“Come to me…” are some of the sweetest words Jesus ever said. If one comes to Jesus and takes what He offers, one will have the rest needed and life worth living.

Inspired words from Moses to Israel in the long ago is a strong reminder and warning for us today. Let’s see other examples from scripture and embrace this teaching so we choose best for our lives.

Continuing “The Savior’s Way” series of lessons, we consider the church—promised in the New Testament, prophesied in the Old Testament and the beginning on Pentecost in the book of Acts.

Part two concludes some things the Bible teaches that God hates—and as we see what God hates, we cannot miss His great loves that provides what we need taught from His Word.

Yes, that question will stun some people, but there are some things the Bible teaches that God hates—things not good for us!

Solomon’s plea to God prompts this study of materialism to achieve balance in life of neither poverty nor riches, but trusting on God for our provisions.

Many look upon God like an old faithful grandfather. But the Bible speaks of His goodness AND His severity. We return to the book of Romans for this study and to choose the God and Father we should serve.

Sadly there are many with no delight in God—no joy, no pleasure. How could this be and especially when it was those who once had such delight? A study from Jeremiah so needed today.

We continue the series of lessons from “The Savior’s Way” as we go back to the Bible and look at a time in the life of Christ that will encourage us to return to the Bible for our learning and our living.

Words of Christ from the blessed “Sermon on the Mount” are just as true and needful today. What a pursuit to be pure in heart—from the “beatitudes,” or “attitudes to BEcome.”

Walking in the steps of Christ is the ultimate goal for everyone and to walk in the steps of the Apostle Paul Who followed Christ is a joy—spiritually and literally. Join Jeff as he shares such a journey.

Daily we are always addressing something whether at work, school, whatever our status might be. However, addressing or focusing on the things that be of God are of most importance.

We’ve seen animals “set free.” The one incarcerated awaits the day to be “set free.” Through Christ, what joy in that one can also be “set free.”

It takes work to get along with others, but if a lot of people take just a little effort—that adds to a lot and what a better world this would be.

Some of the last teachings of Jesus Christ was to leave behind what would help His apostles…and what would help us. The peace that only Christ can give.

The word “precious” seems to be used in ways maybe not applicable. But its meaning pertaining to the word of God is accurate. How precious is God’s word to you?

It was Pilate who asked, “What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” That is a question that should be asked and answered by everyone. What will you do with Jesus, friend?

Mk. 12:30, “And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. This is the first commandment.” ALL…ALL…ALL…ALL. Let’s talk about a lot of “ALLS.”

It seems that the thief on the cross gets a lot of attention in the discussion of salvation. This study takes things a bit deeper in understanding when the thief lived, not where Jesus said he would live.

We hear the term “well-balanced” in a number of ways. Should a person be well balanced spiritually? Divine power from the Father makes a difference in divine partaking by all of us.

There is no other blood that will redeem man and no other cross that held the Savior. We continue the series of lessons from “The Savior’s Way.”

Can the church be identified? Indeed it can as it does exist! Let’s see THE church of the Bible in this broadcast that we may pursue and desire it.

There are so many churches with one name or another—is this toward peace or confusion? Let us see the scriptures about THE church and pursue THE church for our lives.

Let’s spend time in that book of Proverbs considering the wicked, so we will not pursue its direction nor apply its traits.

It may not be only a statue or other image that becomes our idol in place of God. Erroneous teaching and attitudes that focus on oneself may become our idols. We must be aware!

Looking at this wonderful parable from John 15:1-8, we examine Jesus’ teaching in parables with application for us today.

Marriage of one man to one woman for life is God’s plan. There were questions in the days of Christ and there are questions today. But as then and now, Christ has the answers through His word.

Our “Are You Listening…again” series looks again at the importance and necessity of the church. Yes friends, it matters!

“Does the church matter?” The Bible says it does and we enter part four of this study through our “Are You Listening” series.

Our “Are You Listening…again” series returns with part three concerning the necessity of the church and noting what else would be unnecessary if the church did not matter.

Our “Are You Listening…again” series returns with part two of examining the false teaching that the church does not matter. This is part two of six broadcasts.

The “Are You Listening…again” series of lessons considers a statement made by many that the church does not matter. This series of lessons looks at the dangers of such a statement.

A worthy study of the greatest expression unto man—the only expression that would grant salvation to mankind. From Isaiah, let’s consider what all was expressed through the Christ for you and me.

More wonderful things about the “Old Time Religion,” such as the One Church Christ promised and purchased and salvation therein.

That old, old hymn desired the “Old Time Religion” that would be good enough for me.” Let’s think about the qualities of old-time religion in this part one of three programs.

That old, old hymn desired the “Old Time Religion” that would be good enough for me.” Let’s think about some qualities of that “old-time religion.”

No greater invitation ever extended nor will ever be accepted than the invitation of Jesus Christ—to come and to rest; to take and learn.

A distinct message with awesome attributes is THE Gospel of Jesus Christ. There is no wonder and no doubt it is the greatest message man will ever hear.

A wonderful account in a desert place when a servant of a queen and a servant of God met and searched the scripture and to see the joy that awaits then…and now.

The gift of God’s only begotten Son, Jesus Christ stands forth as an expression of love and obedience through God’s grace. A worthy study from days gone by.

The hymn “Softly and Tenderly” expresses it best with the stanza that says, “Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing…” Each day that goes by we are closer to God’s judgment.

Divine love from above affected a woman with compassion and a Pharisee that needed compassion. This is part two of a study from Luke 7.
