    I have studied all views with prayer, common sense and an open mind. The only one that makes any sense taking into account the whole context of Scripture is the Pre-tribulation Rapture of the Church.

    Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 30, 2016
     | 4,916 views

    Skeptics point out the Long Length of Time it’s Been since Jesus' promise, the wrong predictions of date-setters, and the lack of current supernatural interventions as excuses to write off the Rapture. But has God changed His mind?

    HAS GOD CALLED OFF THE RAPTURE? 1 Thess. 4:15-18 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A deacon had a talking female parrot that always said, “Kiss me! Kiss me!” This bothered the deacon. 2. Then he heard the pastor had a parrot who always said, “Let’s pray! Let’s pray!” ...read more

    This message is designed for someone that the preacher knows fairly well so they can fill in details of their life in the middle section. It is a celebration of their life that ends with a turn toward eternity.

    Message As we’ve come to this service, we embark on that march that David describes as the “walk through the valley of the shadow of death.” What do you do when you are hit with the hard reality of life and death? How do you continue to put one foot in front of the other when ...read more

    Sermon explores God's program for bringing in His kingdom (the New World Order), beginning with the resurrection of Jesus. In this Easter message, God's program for a new world is contrasted with the world's efforts to do so without God.

    1 Cor. 15:20-24 3/26/16 Today I want to talk with you about the New World Order. When it is fully established there will be no more war or bloodshed. Terrorism will be a thing of the past. Poverty will be unheard of. No one will ever hunger or thirst again in this new economy. All the problems ...read more

    In prophecies about the falls of and Jerusalem and (figuratively) Babylon, actually separated by centuries, the writers said that the voice of the bridegroom and bride will not be heard any longer in each city. What did these prophecies mean?

    Note: There is a companion sermon to this one, titled THE VOICE OF THE BRIDE. I preached them on two consecutive worship assemblies, with this sermon being first, and THE VOICE OF THE BRIDE, following shortly afterward. Both sermons are on Sermon Central.

    The Rapture Of The Church

     | 7,860 views

    Ministers often complicate the doctrine of the rapture for people by stating that many signs must be seen and many prophecies must be fulfilled before the second coming of Christ, and then, at the same time, they make statements that He might come tonight or at any moment.

    THE RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH INTRO: We mean the rapture of the church, the catching up of all true believers in Christ to meet the Lord in the air.

    Jesus’ Second Coming is rich news to those who are hurting. All the pain and suffering of our lives will not last forever. As one pastor recently said, “The promise of the second coming shows us the ‘good ole days are always ahead of us.”

    Several weeks ago, I asked for your help in your choice of today’s sermon. Your top choice was “When Will Jesus Return to Earth?” But a little analysis of the results led us to understand that it was really only this early service that asked for this topic. So … in the next couple of services, the ...read more
