    The Prophecy In The Upper Room, Part 2

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 19, 2022
     | 1,021 views

    The Lord Jesus gave a promise to His disciples and those who would come to Him for salvation that He would return for them (John 14:1-3). These verses are considered to be His teaching on the "Rapture". Are we correct in this interpretation? We will look at the evidence.

    On the night before He was to undergo the trial of the crucifixion and the redemptive work it ensued on behalf of fallen humanity, Jesus had given the disciples the assurance that even though He would soon leave them, He also promised that He would return and "receive you to Myself, that ...read more

    We need to operate in the following four areas, in order to be connected with God and receive His guidance: 1. obey God’s voice, 2. be sensitive to the spirit, 3. have an understanding of the scripture, and 4. be adding souls to the kingdom.

    1. Baptism reminds us of the Lord's love. 2. Baptism reminds us of a caring Christians. 3. Baptism reminds us of the miraculous meeting in salvation.

    Baptism Is a Big Deal! Acts 8:26-39 Sermon by Rick Crandall Grayson Baptist Church - August 21, 2016 *Baptism is a very big deal in Ukraine. Most of the churches don't have a water tank inside to baptize people. And the winters over there are very cold, so they only get to baptize once or twice a ...read more

    Following Jesus, My Decision For Baptism Series

    Philip was doing a great work in Samaria when the Holy Spirit sent him on what seemed a strange mission: go to Gaza, a desert region, and then get into a chariot. He obeyed, an Ethiopian official believed, and followed the Lord in baptism.

    Foreword: Full disclosure, I am a Southern Baptist and present this message from that perspective. Water baptism is part of the Great Commission (Matthew 28, Mark 16, e.g.) and is mentioned in connection with belief and with becoming a disciple. It is readily admitted there are others who hold ...read more

    The Ethiopian Eunuch Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jul 7, 2023
     | 4,131 views

    There is no doubt that the Ethiopian Eunuch had the joy of salvation and he would be sharing to the ends of the earth what he learned from the prophet of Isaiah and what he experienced in his new life in Christ.

    The Ethiopian Eunuch Acts 8:26-40 The story of the Ethiopian Eunuch is a pivotal passage for many reasons. One of those reasons is that it is considered the fulfilment of Acts 1:8. At the coming of the Holy Spirit the gospel would go to Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and the ends of the earth. ...read more

    There are 1000s of different churches with their various views on baptism. Can they all be right? Probably not, but why aren't they all "right"?

    There was an antique collector passing through a small village when he saw an old man chopping wood with an ancient ax. “That’s a mighty old ax you have there,” he remarked. “Yep,” said the villager, “it once belonged to George Washington.” “George Washington??? Not really!" gasped the ...read more

    A sermon about God's inclusion in this period of polarization and division.

    “Is God’s Church for Everyone?” Acts 8:26-40 When I was a brand-new Christian a friend of mine and I were doing some street witnessing. What I mean by that is we were meeting strangers on the street and asking them if they knew Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We were 18 years old and ...read more

    We read Scripture because we want to know more about God and His plan for us. But do we really understand?

    Thursday of the 3rd week in Easter It is no surprise that whenever someone is reading from the OT during NT times, he is probably reading from an Isaiah scroll. The only time that Jesus gave His disciples an extensive Bible lesson, He began with Moses and then the prophets and asked “was it not ...read more

    A Lesson In Evangelism From Philip And The Ethiopian Eunuch

    Contributed by Paul Green on May 19, 2022
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,490 views

    When Philip introduces the Ethopian Eunuch to Jesus – he does it God’s way. Philip wasn't an Apostle like Peter, a missionary like Paul, or a pastor like Timothy. He was a deacon, a servant of the church, an ordinary, average man who just couldn’t keep God to himself.

    There was a man on a business trip and when he checked in he was given one of the middle seats on the airplane. He was tired and he all he wanted to do was sleep, so he got a little bit irritated when the young girl sat next to him started to ask questions: “Mister, do you brush your teeth?” “Yes,” ...read more

    Passing Through

    Today we look at another Deacon who never identifies himself as a Deacon; We must consider this Evangelist who never identifies himself as a Preacher; the bible says of him only that he was filled with the Holy Ghost and today that he is just passing through!

    Acts 8:35-40 (NKJV) “Passing Through” June 5, 2022 This is not our home, we are just passing through! In John 15, Jesus said that “we are not of the world,” because He chose us out of the world! Peter said we are “strangers and pilgrims!” in this world (1 Peter 2:11). Paul said in ...read more

    Why did Jesus die? Each verse gives part of the answer- Isaiah is still on Friday but we see hints of Sunday (Easter) here (Title, Outline and material adapted from Ray Pritchard at: https://www.keepbelieving.com/sermon/the-conquering-christ/)

    This great church at Jerusalem is a God-given example of the characteristics necessary for a great church. I would suggest that each person read and meditate on the Acts chapter 4 to become intimately acquainted with God’s idea of a great church. I

    This sermon explores the concept of God's abundant grace as seen through the conversion of the Ethiopian by Philip and how God continues to pour out His grace to those who put their faith in Jesus Christ.
