In preparing for today’s message I realized in the time I have been here, I have always, always focused my efforts upon Mother’s Day and the Biblical text associated with this particular ...read more

    Ascension of Jesus to encourage our mission and witness for him

I expect you’ve seen the film, “Forrest Gump.” Where Tom Hanks plays a slow witted southern man by whose simplicity, good-heartedness, and good luck, moves from an obscure childhood to become a millionaire shrimping tycoon. ...read more

    Jesus Calls Us Into His Mission

    As with the Apostles, today’s Church is called to be the Church in mission. This short sermon also emphasises that we must not ’star gaze’. We are simply to be involved in God’s mission.

    Sadly as I preach this morning there will be ‘preachers’ stating that Jesus did not ascend vertically into heaven; and whilst I will not today have the opportunity to challenge such false teachers let’s remind ourselves of this: After appearing to the disciples “many times in ways that proved ...read more

    Benefits for believers of Christ in His ascencion.

    1In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach 2until the day he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen. 3After his suffering, he showed himself to these men and gave many convincing proofs that ...read more

    I suppose one of the most thrilling books in the Bible is the book of Acts.

    Intro: 1. John Bunyan, wrote Pilgrim's Progress testified, "Read the Bible, and read it again, and do not help to understand something of the will and mind of God, though you think they are fast locked up from you.

    The Blessing Of The Ascension Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,266 views

    Why did Jesus bear the burden of the cross, why the resurrection the breakthrough? So that we coud experience the blessing of God. The best definition of the Holy Spirit is Christ in us. Easter is over but the word and work of Jesus are still ongoing.

    Intro: Thus far we have examined the burden of the cross, the breakthrough of the resurrection, now we come to the blessing of the ascension. How can it be that I would say that Jesus, the embodiment of God leaving this planet would be a blessing? Because the bodily incarnation of God cannot ...read more

    There is a meanness stalking about, an evil; the devil himself who is devouring souls. And these are the souls of people who live next door to us, work with us, shop beside us, go to school with us or our children. The world is filled with tears, and the

    In shifting to a blitzkrieg examination of the role of the church in the Book of Acts, I reworked my sermon on Acts 1. This has some repetition with the other one posted a couple of years ago, but has some new material, too.

    Do any of you know what is the last word in the Book of Acts? It is ακωλυτως, pronounced “ah-koh-LOO-tohs” by some and “ah-koh-LEE-tohs” by others, and means “not-hindered,” “not prevented,” “not ...read more

    Jesus promised that his disciples would receive Power when the Holy Spirit came upon them.

    The Promise of Pentecost Acts 1: 1 – 8 The forty days between the resurrection of Jesus and his ascension to the right hand of the Father must have been strange days indeed. They began with the disciples behind locked doors in an upper room in Jerusalem, hiding, we may assume, for fear of ...read more

    Jesus understood the needs of His disciples before they knew they had a problem. He was preparing them for the trying days He knew were ahead. He was making provision for them so that they could continue to live victorious lives.

    The Lord’s Provision Acts 1:1-11 Series Introduction The Early Church turned its world upside down for Christ. It spread the good news of Jesus in the face of extremely hostile conditions.

    We need to expect God to expand our vision and be ready to embrace the call on our lives to do kingdom work.

    These past three weeks we have focused our messages on discipleship. The first week Pastor Tim so adequately, and literally, unpacked for us the story of Elmo, I mean Thomas, the imperfect disciple and how Jesus accepts us and knows us for who we really are – our good and bad. The 2nd week I ...read more

    Jesus has unleashed resurrection power on the earth. What happens because of that resurrection power?

    Well, I’m gonna be honest with you...I’m not doing that good. I am really sore. Here’s the deal. Sherry decided that we needed to get in shape. I told her, "I’m in shape...round is a shape."
