    A Hand Up...not A Hand Out! (Acts 3:1-10)

    Contributed by David Darst on May 17, 2021
     | 6,264 views

    I have come to this conclusion: People do not need a “hand out” . What they really need is a “hand up” So many people would be content to be carried around in their affliction rather than walk on their own two feet. The Worst part is many Christian’s are content to keep carrying them.

    I. The Routine (1) Peter and John were still in the two by two mode -- they were going about their religious routine on their way to the temple to pray. “Ninth hour” approximately (3PM) in the afternoon. Some interesting observations: It wasn’t the time of the afternoon sacrifice; but rather the ...read more

    Playing No Favorites--Like God Does Series

    Jesus tells us today not just to forgive our enemies, something we heard earlier in the Gospel, but to wish them well, to do good to them, and, yes, to love them.

    Saturday of the First Week of Lent 2023 One of the worst heresies of the past two thousand years, an opinion that keeps coming back with almost predictable regularity, is the error first heard in early times from Marcion. The idea is that the God of the OT was a harsh, vindictive judge, almost ...read more

    So Long, Farewell (I'll Tell You This...) Series

     | 478 views

    Several years ago I was leaving a church and looked for ideas for winding down or farewell sermons. I found few ideas. I was able to piece a few options from reference to Paul’s final meeting with the Ephesian elders and Paul’s final thoughts to Timothy.

    This lesson is one of the “farewell sermons” I put together. I have a bibliography for those who would like it.This sermon became the last one I preached in my previous church. The title was inspired by the tagline of a comedian who was popular when I was a kid and I have a series (unrelated to ...read more

    What you don’t know about the 2nd coming could be fatal.

    OPEN: The church was packed and the preacher was wound up to a fever pitch speaking on the 2nd coming of Jesus. Quoting Jesus’ promise, he shouted out “I am coming soon!’” He preached some more and said even more loudly “I am coming soon!!” He preached a little longer and threw his arms up in ...read more

    Humble Love Youth Sermon

     | 1,085 views

    Jesus displayed His passion for humanity through humility, serving others, and giving up His life as a ransom for many. We are called to follow His example by thinking, acting, and obeying in humility.

    Hey everyone! Today, we're gonna talk about humility. Humility is that thing where we put others before ourselves and don't act like we're the center of the universe. Jesus was the ultimate example of humility, and we're gonna learn from Him today. But first, let's start with a cool object lesson. ...read more

    Dying To Self

    Contributed by Joe Rowland on Feb 2, 2009
    based on 11 ratings
     | 15,232 views

    Have you ever found it hard to give to what you want to do? Most people will do what they want and forget what the Word of God says to do. We have to learn to die to self. We need to learn to walk in the Spirit that we do not fulfill the lust of the flesh

    Dying To Self 1 Peter 4:1-4 1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin; 2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will ...read more

    What is it about active, vital believers that is so threatening to popular culture?

    One of my favorite television episodes of “The Twilight Zone” television series was a humorous episode where the entire plot revolved around a misunderstanding with an alien species and culminated in the discovery of a book. The title of that book was “To Serve Man” and the misunderstanding was ...read more

    Going Through The Motions

     | 14,333 views

    Are we just going through the motions of being a Christian? Maybe you are sleep walking and you need awakened out of your sleep. Wake up mighty men and women and prepare for the battles that will come your way.

    Going Through The Motions Romans 8:31-37 31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? 32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? 33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of ...read more

    What are you to do with your life? It is to be a sacrifice to God. But your sacrifice leads to life not death!

    “A Living Sacrifice” Introduction: 1. The concept of justification by faith only is often taught from the letter written to the Romans. 2. We know that we show our faith by our actions, James 2:14ff. 3. “Therefore” here refers to the entire doctrine taught in Romans of being justified by ...read more

    We are called to encourage one another.

    Fifty-one years ago, on June 18, 1956, a freak accident happened on a lake in New York. A speeding motorboat bounced on a wave and shot into the water two of its passengers, a 50-year old man and a little girl. To keep her from drowning, the man held her head above water while the boat circled ...read more

    As a Believer, Faith, not emotions overcomes the world. As a Believer, Faith, not rational thinking defines who we are. As a Believer, Faith, not rational thinking is the filter through which we see everything. You are a Believer!!

    Jesus walked on the earth over 2000 years ago. His Disciples walked with Him, watched Him closely, heard His voice. They were eyewitnesses to His miracles. Yet, even they had trouble taking in everything they were seeing. We are 2000 years removed from those moments. We have to decide whether we ...read more

    My HOPE however is not in my or your vote, but it is in God who with His unconditional love will use us to bring His way and will to our society. The Psalmist said some may trust in horses, some in chariots and it seems like some are trusting in our votes

    God and Government As we approach another national election in South Africa, once more there is a cry from the people of South Africa for good and godly people to be elected to the various offices of government at all levels.

    The Israelites reach Mount Sinai and the Lord declares that they are his treasured possession. We, too, as children of faith are God’s precious possessions.

    Exodus 19:1-6, 20:1-2 “Precious” INTRODUCTION The world is filled with strange, ridiculous and useless laws. For example: • In Missouri it is illegal to drive with an uncaged bear, and in Alaska it is improper to wake a sleeping bear for a photo opportunity. • In ...read more
