Sit Down And Be Counted

Contributed by Martin Odom on Dec 25, 2006

Men are always so busy doing things that we seldom stop to allow God to minister in our lives. This sermon encourages men to surrender themselves to Jesus so we may gain more than expected. This is a Men’s Day sermon I preached at my church.

While the other three are called the synoptic gospels, which simply means that they give a synopsis or summary of Jesus’ life, John is after something different. John ...read more

The One Time Satan Was Right!

Contributed by Kenneth Trent on Dec 2, 2002

Satan is a liar and the father of it but there were two times he was right. One was in this passage. The other is found in Matthew 4:6. This outline looks at the significance of the "hedge" God has put about His children.

Thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land." Job 1:9-10. I. "HAST THOU ...read more

Never Unloved Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 2, 2002

Some receive love, but reject it; others never know that they are loved. In either case, the Cross is evidence that we have never been unloved.

We need to think not only about the way we relate to other people, but also about how we receive them. It is not enough simply to be friendly and cordial. We also need to look at how we receive people when they extend themselves to us. I went to a meeting this week, where all the ...read more
