Wave 94The Cross Before the Crown by Robert Kornegay on Sunday, June 22, 2025In this compelling message titled "The Cross and the Crown," Robert Kornegay delves into the often-overlooked reality that suffering is an integral part of the Christian walk. Referencing the poignant opening of Psalm 22 ("My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?") and its prophetic parallels to Jesus' crucifixion, Kornegay reveals how both David's personal anguish and Jesus' ultimate sacrifice demonstrate that "before there is glory, there must be endurance. Before the crown, there is always a cross to bear."
The teaching beautifully contrasts Psalm 22, a psalm of profound suffering, with the beloved Psalm 23, which speaks of God's comforting provision...

2025-06-2239 minPearls of Wisdom from Oyster Bay Church of Christ in Crawfordville, FloridaAsk for the Old PathsOur culture often casts aside that which is old and shuns any path that seems too familiar. We see the ancient as irrelevant. The Word of God, however, tells us to reconsider. The weeping prophet Jeremiah pleaded with the people to "Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls." In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, we listen to the timely admonition of Jeremiah to stop, look, and listen before we choose the paths of life.

Beginning with God's original dominion given to humanity in Genesis and the subsequent failure of mankind before the Flood, the teaching highlights the emergence of the first human kingdom under Nimrod – an act rooted in rebellion against God. The message connects this historical thread to the empires depicted in Daniel's prophecies (Babylon, Persia, Greece, Rome), portraying them as earthly powers destined to fall before God's eternal kingdom. A significant portion is dedicated to understanding Satan's influence, identifying him through various biblical names like th...
