Sermonettes,
Bible Studies, Lectures
Most of these messages in most cases were
intended to be delivered in 15 minutes, although the
extra material normally written down (a good speaker
always overprepares, in order to avoid running out of
material!) would allow someone with more time to speak
longer. These messages mostly were given in the
Ann Arbor, Michigan congregation of the United Church
of God. They shouldn't be deemed as official doctrinal
statements of the UCG-IA, but I believe all or most
of them are in general comformity with its teachings.
(One message below,
that about being "born again," had its text
changed to make it more in line with a recent declaration
on this subject, since there is plainly duality and
multiple analogies possible when it comes to Scripture
explaining the process of salvation). Another
one was made more anonymous and nonspecific
than it was originally also.
