    Loose Your Love, Loose Your Light

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,828 views

    Our churches can be so active these days, but without love we’re not going to reach our potential. Activity can not take the place of attractiveness, and we are to shine so we can draw men and women to Christ. Love for others will cause us to want to be a

    Loose Your Love, Loose Your Light Revelation 2:1-5 I heard a story once about a lighthouse and rescue squad off of a dangerous point on a certain seacoast. They did a wonderful job rescuing the hurting and lost, that is until the town got the idea of reconditioning the old lighthouse for a newer ...read more

     | 3,732 views

    Doing the ministry may be sometimes frustrating. WHY? Because many Christians do it without efficiency. Here are 4 basic principles on how we can be efficient in our work for the Lord

    INTRODUCTION: Being a servant is vital if we want to be used by God. The word servant is not something negative as what the world has somewhat implanted to our minds, but rather being a servant is actually the best state a Christian could ever become. Why? Let me share to you three reasons ...read more

    The Devices Of Satan

    Contributed by Kenneth Trent on Aug 1, 2003
    based on 64 ratings
     | 8,827 views

    We are not immune from Satan’s attacks, either within or without. Satan is a master at his evil craft. To know the things we need to beware of will strengthen our position in the battle.

    THE DEVICES OF SATAN "Lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices." II Corinthians 2:11 We are not immune from Satan’s attacks against us, either within or without. Often we leave the door open to Satan by our spiritual weakness or lack of faith. Peter’s ...read more

    "If The Church Would Just Pray"

    Contributed by Bishop William Bryant Wilmore, Jr. on Aug 17, 2003
    based on 334 ratings
     | 88,400 views

    When Peter was in prison, awaiting what appeared to be a sure execution, the church prayed without ceasing for him and Peter was set free by an angel of the Lord. Powerful things happen the church prays.

    In the text, we find something taking place that seems to be missing in many churches today – that is church folk praying for church folk. In this particular case, a church member in trouble. The Apostle Peter is on death roll and all petitions to commute his sentence have been exhausted. ...read more

    The Sacredness Of Submission

    Contributed by Donnie Martin on Sep 8, 2003
    based on 79 ratings
     | 8,327 views

    Submission to God is the key to the Christian’s spiritual growth and maturity. Not only that, but without submission there can be no direction for the child of God. Submission is the pivotal point in any Christian’s life.

    The Sacredness Of Submission Text: Rom.12: 1-2 Intro: The philosophy of our world today seems to be summed up in the phrase made popular in the 60’s: “Do your own thing.” The basic idea of that philosophy was individualism; just be yourself; throw off the antiquated restrictions of the past ...read more

    2nd Sunday of End Time(WWIID #2) - Knowing that Jesus is the Vine and we are the branches means knowing that we are dead without Jesus but with Jesus we are alive in Jesus’ love.

    JESUS IS THE VINE - WE ARE THE BRANCHES John 15:5-12 - November 10, 2002 JOHN 15:5-12 5"I am the vine; you are the branches.

    Communion - What's The Bottom Line

    Contributed by George Alves on Feb 6, 2002
    based on 182 ratings
     | 19,525 views

    Communion is a very special time for believers. Jesus doesn’t want us to go away without encountering him at His Table. This message encourages believers to see beyond the elements.

    Communion – What is the bottom line? Luke 24:13-35 What does Jesus want to do for us at this gathering? When we celebrate communion, what is Jesus’ purpose. As we walk along on the Road to Emmaus with the two disciples we must not forget that these two disciples of Jesus had heard the two ...read more

    Sin has frozen our world in it’s grip and without outside help we are lost. Our fundamental problem is the presence of evil which is only defeated by the presence of God

    Intro: Like Lucy, Edmund finds his way into Narnia through the wardrobe. But he doesn’t meet the nice faun, Mr. Tumnus. Instead, he comes face to face with the most feared being in that world: Jadis, the White Witch. What Edmund doesn’t realize is that he is, in fact, a being that she fears. She ...read more

    Are you a good axample to others?. Without a doubt many have been a bad example to others at one point or another, sometimes to someone who is weaker or a new brother or sister in the faith.

    “Command and teach these things. Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity”. 1. Paul was talking to Timothy who was a Pastor and also a young man. Everyone who is a leader, whether at church or ...read more

    In the parable of the sower: 1. The seed falls onto every type of soil without discrimination. 2. The different soils represent people’s different responses. 3. In the end there is a great harvest.

    Picture the scene in your mind. Jesus is teaching from a boat on the shore of the Lake of Galilee. There is a breeze blowing as he nods in the direction of a farmer in the distance. He is sowing seed in his field. As they watched the farmer at work, Jesus used the scene to teach a lesson about ...read more

    based on 11 ratings
     | 4,255 views

    This is the first 1/2 of a two part sermon addressing the link between God’s sovereignty to act without us and his requirement that we pray so that he can act.

    I think in the last year we’ve learned much about what it means to pray. True enough most of our prayers are for healing and comfort but we certainly have been learning to pray by practicing I think. But praying, by definition is speaking to God, worshiping God, Thanking God, or imploring God to ...read more

    Returning to our study of Genesis tonight, we are in chapter 25 and the story of Esau and Jacob, the story begins with the prayer of Isaac that his wife might bear children and in this setting ends with a tragedy of faithlessness – and an interesting peek into God’s sovereignty working out in ...read more
