     | 5,957 views

    Many believers are disturbed by the thought that there may be Christians who could be lost. We need the comfort of Christ Who offers "eternal life" so that we need never fear such an end.

    “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but ...read more

    Does it matter if matter if we change Bible terminology? If we add to God’s thinking because we think we can "improve" upon His Word? Consider these thoughts.

    OPEN: A man once told of purchasing his first pickup truck. And he also bought a book on gasoline engines because he was afraid of being ripped off at the service station.

    Psalm 106 gives insight on what is in us and also on why God would do this (give us salvation) for us! (Thanks to Sermon Central Contributor Paul Apple for some of these thoughts)

    Sermon for 9/23/2007 Psalm 106 (especially vs. 8) Introduction: Several months ago I was teaching the teenagers in Sunday school. We were talking about Exodus 33, a unique Scripture where it talks about Moses seeing the Lord. To open up the class I asked a question, “When we get to heaven, what ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,315 views

    As a church, the first step in developing a great connection with the community is to give serious thought toward our attitude to the community. Are we its judges, or our we the ones who bring blessing?

    Sermon for CATM on September 2, 2007 - “How Does God See our Community?” Luke 13:34 Jesus said: "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not ...read more

    Palm Sunday: As we contemplate the joyous reception that Jesus got as He entered Jerusalem, our thoughts go to the reason that He entered in the first place - to save us by dying on the Cross.

    In the old days – days long before Jesus was born, God’s people annually observed a festival known as the Feast of Tabernacles. This was a feast of great joy. It was a time of celebration. It lasted seven days. Part of what happened during this feast is that the people marched around the Altar ...read more

    Trust is Faith in ACTION!!! It is the manifestation of our faith in our thoughts and actions. It is far easier to have faith in God; there are unbelievers who have this. It is a lot harder to exercise trust in Him...

    Trust in the Lord Proverbs 3:5-6 Faith vs. Trust: Is faith the same thing as trust? If not, what is the difference? Faith is a noun: It is something we HAVE...

    Sometimes people think that that there is no place for talk of money from the pulpit but the Scriptures speak about money, giving and generosity from beginning to end. This message looks at thoughts on generosity from the Book.

    This is week two or three of Money Month at Cornerstone, depending on how you count. Two weeks ago we at least gave a nod to the fact that this is the month that we deal with Money at Cornerstone when I preached on A Generous Easter, and then last week was our 20th Anniversary and I preached on ...read more

Were the believers ...read more
