    What Is Your Name? Week 1 Series

    Contributed by Randy Bennett on Aug 17, 2004
    based on 7 ratings
     | 3,263 views

    Satan, the father of lies, has convinced us that we are worthless sinners. What does God say about us - and how hard is it for us to accept it?

    What is Your Name? Big Idea: Satan has deceived us into believing that we are simple humans, just “sinners, saved by grace.” God calls us His children and Jesus tells us that we are made new in Him. Which voice are we listening to? Scripture: John 10:10 2 Corinthians 5:17 Romans 6:1-14 1 Peter ...read more

    We must resist the pressures to secularise our faith and to accept the beliefs of other gods. We must seek the peace of God in His Word, not in the words of humans.

    God requires us to come with Clean Hands and a Clean Heart ZECHARIAH 5:1 – 11 INTRODUCTION. God requires us to come to Him with clean hands and a clean heart. This means that we need to look clean but we also need to be clean inside. I find it interesting that the world so often concentrates on ...read more

     | 9,570 views

    Our world lives life on the edge, and Christians can also push the limits of the acceptable and court temptation when they think their faith is strong enough to handle anything.

    Life on the Edge A Sermon on 1 Corinthians 10:1-13 We are now in the season of Lent, which began as a parallel to the forty days Christ spent in the wilderness being tempted by Satan. And it is temptation that I want to focus on this morning. Temptation is something that we all must deal with. ...read more

    Jesus calls all disciples, those who have accepted Him as Lord and Savior, to Go and tell someone else “the kingdom of God is near you.”

     | 4,377 views

    Will look at this teaching from Jesus to show how acceptance of the death of Jesus in place of our own is the bread of life that all men ought to crave for, not reject.

    I was a Jr. High student from CO. We were visiting Artesia Christian College, near Carlsbad, NM. They told our group that we were going to take a desert hike – that it would be fun. So, we piled into vehicles and drove south to the Chihuahuan Desert. You know, from an air conditioned car, the ...read more

    Looking For A Good Room

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,635 views

    What kind of room in heaven do you desire? By our earthly life, we train our souls to receive and accept God and this has eternal import.

    “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” (Mk. 17:17). There are two alternates to eternal life: eternal death and temporal life. Neither is appealing. Eternal life is worth struggling for. The rich young man asked the Lord what must he do. He understood that attainment of heaven was ...read more

    After you accept Jesus as your savior, can you be bad enough to lose your salvation? Or if you doubt your salvation is that proof you are not saved?

    Joke: At the pearly gates, St. Peter greeted a minister and congressman and gave them their room assignments. “Pastor, here are the keys to our nicest efficiency unit and Mr. Congressman, the keys to our finest penthouse suite.” “This is unfair!” cried the minister. ...read more

    If you want a growing church that builds itself up in love, then accept your spiritual gifts, develop them and use them wherever and whenever you can.

    When a local church broke ground for a new 500-seat sanctuary, an inventive church member made sure everyone could participate in the experience. The man attached a 145-foot handle to a stainless steel spade so that all 300 members could squeeze together to turn the first shovel full of dirt. A ...read more

    Wouldn't it be great to see things through the eyes of Jesus? Perhaps if we accept the Cheap Songlasses that come with Grace, we could see others differently.

    CHEAP SUNGLASSES (ALL my sermons use illustration found on www.sermoncentral.com and all scripture in NIV unless otherwise noted) This morning the puppets performed a song by Brandon Heath called “Give Me Your Eyes” to have the eyes of Jesus. “Give me your eyes for just one ...read more

    Looking at Simeon's prayer to understand the ability to let go of this life comes from first embracing Jesus. We need to learn to accept that having Jesus is "enough."

    Luke 2:25-33 Intro: I’ve read several different versions of monkey traps that are used in different parts of the world – in India, in Africa – a coconut is taken and cleaned out, then, a hole just large enough to let a monkey get his hand inside is cut into it. Some kind of ...read more
