    This world is not our home. We are transients, travellers passing through to a better place.

    REVERENT BRETHREN, REDEEMED PILGRIMS. 1 Peter 1:17-23. Christians are like transient travellers passing through a foreign land. Abraham was a sojourner in Canaan, but was never a Canaanite. Israel dwelt in Egypt, but lived separately from the Egyptians. We are in the world, yet not of the world ...read more

    MILK FOR ADULTS. 1 Peter 2:2-10. Whether we are new in the faith or have been following Jesus for many years, we are encouraged to get back to basics, to return to our first love (Revelation 2:4-5), to long after sound Word-based teaching.

  • Bearing Up

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 1, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,011 views

    The sufferings of Jesus were unique in that He suffered once for all, the just for the unjust. But we are still sometimes called to bear up and endure grief, suffering unjustly. Our model was laid down in the patient pattern of His sufferings.

    BEARING UP. 1 Peter 2:19-25. The Apostle Peter uses his address to domestic servants (1 Peter 2:18) to illustrate the calling of all Christians to share in the sufferings of Christ. “For this is grace,” he quite literally says (1 Peter 2:19): this is acceptable; this is thankworthy - if out of ...read more

    In His victory we are made victorious, even when we suffer unjustly, and for His cause.

    THE VICTORY OF CHRIST’S SUFFERING. 1 Peter 3:13-22. Who will harm us if we do that which is good (1 Peter 3:13)? The question is rhetorical. If God be for us, who can be against us (Romans 8:31)? Yet even if we do seem to suffer for righteousness’ sake (1 Peter 3:14), we have the blessing of ...read more

     | 6,433 views

    This fun sermon series uses comic-book heroes as modern-day parables, uncovering hidden spiritual messages in the stories of superheroes like Superman, Batman, and Spider-man. Most of these sermons are expository, alliterated and have PowerPoint!

    Peter indicates that our salvation should impact how we related to governmental authority. Submission is not a popular topic, but it is needful, in our rebellious & self-gratifying society. Submission is recognition of God¡¯s right to govern our lives.

    1 PETER 2: 13-17 RESPECT CIVIL AUTHORITY [Renewing Hope Series] [Romans 13:1-7 / Acts 4:19-20; 5:29] From this point on 1 Peter discusses the effect of our salvation on our life and relationships.

    We are strangers in this world, on vacation in a foreign land, with advantages the natives of this world don't even begin to understand. But do we realize what those advantages are, and what difference those blessings can mean to our lives?

    based on 4 ratings
     | 21,309 views

    The heart of a godly mother is a reflection of the heart of God. As we focus on the heart of a Godly Mother, we can be assured that God loves us with the same love. He is the source of a mother’s love.

    based on 1 rating
     | 14,853 views

    David reflected God’s own heart as He faithfully tended his sheep, as well as when he later was the shepherd king over Judah and Israel. We need a shepherd’s heart to help us care for the people God brings into our lives.

    THE HEART OF A SHEPHERD INTRO: Have you ever thought about what David’s life must have been like as a shepherd? He did not show up for work at 9 am. and go home at 5. He actually lived out in the fields or hills with the sheep. My understanding is that they did not do this year round ...read more
