    God prohibited graven images among the people of Israel because there was no need. Man was meant to be the image.

    MADE TO BE GOD’S IMAGE Gen 1:26-27; Exodus 20:4 I. MAN IS UNIQUE 1. Not because he is created 2. Because he alone was created in God’s Image 3. Of all the created order, only man is said to be created in God’s Image 4. He is the “crown” of creation 5. All of creation moves toward the ...read more

    Sinner’s Prayer

    Contributed by Glenn Abel on Jul 6, 2012
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,057 views

    This sermon was preached in response to reading a book that attacked the idea and validity of using the sinner’s prayer.

    "What About the Sinner’s Prayer?" Luke 18:10-13 The “sinner’s prayer” gets a bad rap. It has become popular today to trash the idea of “the sinner’s prayer.” Some very popular recent writers have reduced the idea of a sinner’s prayer to the level of superstition or magical incantation. In my ...read more

    A sermon on John the Baptist that focuses on John's humility and acceptance of his work as the one who prepared the way for the coming of Jesus. John's life is summed up in the words "He must increase and I must decrease."

    Adding and Subtracting John 3:22–30 (ESV) “He must increase, but I must decrease” The third chapter of John is best known for Nicodemus and John 3:16 But this chapter also records an incident that is very important to the beginning of the public ministry of Jesus I. The ...read more

    A Living Sacrifice

    based on 3 ratings
     | 72,418 views

    Sacrificing to God has always been part of the man-God relationship. Abel and Cain made sacrifices. Abraham prepared to sacrifice his son. The Levitical system of sacrifices lay at the center of Jewish life. Today God calls for living, not dead sacrifice.

    Note: I have developed a few simple slides in PowerPoint that I used in delivering this sermon. They're not fancy, but if anyone is interested in them I will send them to you directly by Email.

    It Is Well With My Soul Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 8, 2020
    based on 6 ratings
     | 13,449 views

    Among all the conquering heroes of Hebrews 11, God introduces us to those who suffered, struggled and died for their faith. Why would God tell us the stories of those who didn't "succeed"?

    OPEN: I love a good action movie - the kind they used to make. Movies where good overcomes evil; the boy gets the girl; righteousness triumphs and the hero rides off into the sunset. Those are “feel good” movies because everything works out the way it should. One website talked about the movies ...read more

     | 16,015 views

    "Bitterness is like drinking rat poison and waiting for the rat to die."(John Ortberg Jr.).It contributes to physical sickness and doesn't allow us to experience the peace God wants for us. Live at peace with everyone. (Romans 12:18).

    BITTERNESS "Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you”. (Ephesians 4:31-32) Bitterness is defined as anger and ...read more

    In this smaller message we look at the way Christ died for the sins of the world to redeem and restore what Adam lost. Jesus Christ is the Passover Lamb and fulfils the two goats on the Day of Atonement. His death for the whole world has brought eternal redemption and salvation.

    MEASURE UPON MEASURE – DEATH – THE RESTORATION OF GOD - Part 10 (Section 2) I am doing a presentation on the results of sin that entered the human race.

    The Sad, Sad Decision Of Cain, The Firstborn Of Adam And Eve (Expanded) – Genesis Chapter 4; Jude 1:12 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 16, 2022
     | 1,794 views

    When Jude deals with the ravenous wolves of the false teachers, his thoughts go to three vile people in the Old Testament. Today I am doing only one of those even though we touched on it in the past. Cain is the disobedient and murderous one. We will examine the story in more detail.

    THE SAD, SAD DECISION OF CAIN, THE FIRSTBORN OF ADAM AND EVE (EXPANDED) – GENESIS CHAPTER 4 Jude 1:12 There was an earlier massage that contained Cain and Korah together. Now Cain alone is expanded. Today we look at Cain. {{Jude 1 v 11 “Woe to them for they have gone the way of Cain, and for ...read more

    Sermon # 44 - Overcome Evil With Good Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 13, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 137 views

    Everyone has a choice to either do evil for evil or to repay evil with good. The latter is a godly decision which God approves of and the way Jesus exemplified. When our children are taught this when young, they will grow up to always do good no matter what evil is done to them.

    We read in Genesis 4:1, Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, and said, “I have acquired a man from the LORD.” (NKJV) When the first man Adam and his wife Eve had a baby boy, the words of Eve were, ‘I have acquired a man from the Lord.’ Children are given to us by the Lord, ...read more

    Sibling Rivalry Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 23, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 13,267 views

    Sibling rivalry starts with one person feeling they've been slighted. They deserved to be treated better. And expect this kind of rivalry in children - it's when we become adults that this desire to "be the star" can destroy families, churches and relationships.

    OPEN: Video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVI2fX-1uPU That clip was from a popular TV series called “This Is Us” where a couple of the main actors (brothers Kevin and Randall) get into a fight. The scene is an excellent example of a common conflict most families experience called ...read more

    Your Need For Worship

    Contributed by Scott Maze on May 18, 2021
     | 3,587 views

    Worship is a big deal: Cain killed his brother, Abel. Moses asked Pharaoh for some time to away in the wilderness to worship. Ancient Jewish families would bring animals to Jerusalem for the purpose of worship. And Jesus turned over the tables in the Temple because they were ruining worship.

    Your worship is a big deal to you personally. Worship is a big deal down throughout history. Think about the importance of worship down through the ages: Cain killed his brother, Abel, over worship in Genesis 4. Moses asked Pharaoh for some time to away in the wilderness so the children of Israel ...read more
