Sermons on Alive Forevermore:

The Journey From Life To Death (Part 1)

Contributed by Brian Williams on Mar 21, 2023

What if we woke up every day realizing the only reason we are alive today, the only reason we have eternal life, hope, peace is because Jesus loved us enough to lay down His life for us so that we could live.

This Lenten season we are talking about Jesus' journey from death to life. After Jesus’ time with the disciples in the upper room, He prayed His High Priestly prayer and as Rob spoke about last Sunday. Jesus was praying for unity, indwelling of the Spirit, joy, glory, giving and salvation for ...read more

Looking At My Lifeline: A Story Of Hope

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 20, 2023

As a kidney patient, I have to rely on a dialysis machine to perform the functions that my kidneys are no longer able to do. Dialysis is my physical "lifeline". However, I have a greater lifeline in the Lord Jesus Christ who keeps me alive in every way.

I have been dealing with progressive kidney failure for nearly five years and the effects upon one's body that come with it. I've endured numerous trips to doctors, specialists, nutritionists, and other experts who have been more than helpful in getting me through this rough spot in my ...read more

A Love That Covers A Multitude Of Sins | Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd

Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on Nov 20, 2024

What is the highest Christian Virtue? We might have different points of view, but the Bible tells us that it is LOVE. What is this love? How do we practice it? Dr. Madana Kumar, PhD exposits on 1 Peter 4:8 to bring this concept alive.

A Love that covers all Sins Arvi and Aarav (our grandchildren) are happier children in the past week. One of the reasons for their extra joy for the past week has been the presence of Neville and Supriya (our son and daughter in law) at our home. But I am sure that their pet dog Bowie contributes ...read more

The Urge To Cling

Contributed by John Vella on Feb 5, 2007

We instinctively know that clinging behaviour in an adult is not a good thing. Jesus knew that very well. He knew that the urge to cling could even cause us to lose our life. We could end up not really alive. Instead of being free in Christ, our clinging

Vital Signs

Contributed by Mark Opperman on Dec 5, 2012

As we look at qualities in the Thessalonian church and in the lives of Paul and his companions, we can see what it looks like when people are spiritually alive. I’d like to look at chapter 1 in this light. We can identify several vital signs that should b

With Friends Like These... Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

Hearing about their friend Job, three of his closest friends show up: Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar. As you’re going to see in the moments to come, if Job and his 3 friends were alive today, Job would surely “unfriend” these 3from his Facebook profile.

Job is one of the most unique stories you’ll hear – not just inside the Bible but anywhere. It’s the story of man named Job, a man whose character was tremendously strong but suffered exceedingly. But one day Satan says to God, “The reason Job follows you is you’re so good to him. Stop blessing him ...read more

Reasons For The Resurrection

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Apr 25, 2017

Today we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. We rejoice that he who was dead is now alive. But why did he come back to life? What was the purpose behind it? What was to be gained by it? What did it show? What did it prove? What did it mean for us?

Capitalize On Your Borrowed Time

Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Sep 24, 2016

Through all the ups and downs, mountains and valleys, joys and sorrows, victories and defeats, good days and bad days, God has blessed us to see one more year. Many people died this year. We are alive. We have all the reasons to say "Hallelujah & Amen."

“CAPITALIZE ON YOUR BORROWED TIME” LUKE 13:1-9: 1 There were present at that season some that told Jesus of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. 2 And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, ...read more

The Ultimate Christian Attainment: Union With God Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Jun 19, 2024

We do not easily submit to all this burning up of dross within us. We do not want to be buried with Christ in his cross and alive with Christ in His resurrection. We naturally resist the death of self. Yet God helps us submit to the refiner's fire.

Many great saints I’ve known, even in the Salvation army, many are retiring now, and they say that when they retire, they are grateful that God did not show them the entire path all the ups and downs because they would not have been able to handle the thought of it. But step by step, along the ...read more

What Shall I Do With Jesus? Series

Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 3, 2012

The preacher, the Christian and the outsider all must answer the same question--What Shall I Do With Jesus? Each of us must answer; we cannot evade. For salvation and for service, our answer reveals who we are.

“What shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ” [1] Almost every message I have heard from this text was directed to lost people. That is certainly appropriate. However, in our study today, I want to consider how this question applies not only to the lost, but also to each of us who bear the ...read more

Saving Faith: A Matter Of The Heart Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 30, 2014

Calling on the Lord has never saved anybody, but calling on the name of the Lord, always saves. How can you do that? How can you have that kind of faith? I’ve noticed there are at least three different types of faith I think everybody possesses.

INTRODUCTION We have come now to what I believe to be the clearest instructions in all the Bible that tell a person how they can be saved. How they can get from Texas to heaven. You may see in the bulletin there a little outline, you might want to follow along and fill it in. I’m convinced ...read more
