    Signing Your Own Declaration Of Independence

    Contributed by Bruce Willis on Jun 22, 2007
    based on 26 ratings
     | 3,814 views

    This sermon seeks to reveal just how we operate in independence because we in essence signed our own Declaration of Independence like Adam and Eve did in the Garden of Eden.

    Today, 230 years ago 13 Colonies signed the Declaration of Independence and a nation was born. The second paragraph of what they signed says, “We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among ...read more

    John Wesley taught that perfect love for the Lord would result in living a holy life which would be pleasing to the Lord. Is that true? Let's look again into God's Holy word and see what we can find out.

    If you would, please stand as we say together our memory Scripture for this quarter: Matthew 6:31-33 “Do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. “But ...read more

    God’s judgment is fair and impartial even though it will be an awful experience to face his wrath and fury.

    Grace and Sin’s Judgment Part II Romans 2:6-16 I. God’s Judgment On Sin (continued) A. It may seem Paul belabors the subject of God’s judgment, but spending some time on this matter and establishing a firm footing in this area magnifies the grace of God as well as helps us remember there is a ...read more

    I will not leave you as orphan: The felling of absence is nothing but the absence of God. When God is absence you realize you feel lonely. Without Jesus Christ, you feel like an orphan.

    Repentance needs to lead to future avoidance if we are to live for Christ.

    Have you ever wondered why there are so many tales of failure in God’s Word ... so many indications of how people have failed in life? This suggests two things to me, among many others. One is that the Bible has these kinds of stories in it because God wrote it. If people had written this in their ...read more

    Rehoboam failed to treasure what he has, he abandoned the Law of the Lord and forfeited the true worship of God. Heed 2 Chron 12:14 words - let us set our heart on seeking the Lord.

King Jeroboam led them into idolatry, creating another new religion, with new gods. What about the ...read more

    Often we Christians believe that we are so insulated against evil that we do not need to be isolated from evil. Everything the Bible says is opposed to such a view. The people and the activities we are involved with can hurt us and cause us to fall.

    PROVERBS 4:10-19 WATCH YOUR STEP [Jude 24, 25] A sign on the entrance to the IRS office read, "Watch your step." A sign on the exit read, "Watch your language." Two good pieces of advice! The first warning is especially appropriate, for as we walk through life, it is easy to stumble and ...read more

    This is a message in a series from the book of Lamentations

    We live in a culture that is overrun by frivolous lawsuits. We are encouraged to sue if someone tramples on what we consider to be our rights. This is just another sign of the mentality, “I have the right to believe and act in whatever manner I deem appropriate.” Unfortunately this attitude has ...read more

    This message looks at how Jesus healed a paralytic, and discusses the connection between sin and illness, and forgiveness and healing. God desires for your whole spirit, soul, and body to be healed (1 Thessalonians 5:23).

    I would like to begin our message this morning with a true story about a woman’s healing. A pastor named John Wimber says, “A woman in her late forties asked me to pray for her healing. She suffered from chronic stomach disorders and arthritis . . . I asked her if she was feeling hostility, ...read more
