    The Watchman

    Contributed by Bruce Allen on Sep 27, 2003
    based on 66 ratings
     | 39,889 views

    Just as the watchman is to primarily act as a guard by watching carefully for danger and to warn of its eventuality, so too has God appointed His messengers to watch out for spiritual dangers and warn of its coming destruction.

    The Watchman Ezekiel 3:16-21 At the end of seven days the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 17 "Son of man, I have appointed you a watchman to the house of Israel; whenever you hear a word from My mouth, warn them from Me. 18 "When I say to the wicked, ’You will surely die,’ and you do not ...read more

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Dec 8, 2023
     | 2,413 views

    Acts 20 has a summary of Paul's ministry in various places after he left Ephesus. His closing message to the elders of Ephesus is a masterpiece of a charge to church leaders anywhere.

    1 Paul’s journeys from Ephesus to Troas Text, Acts 20:1-6, KJV: 1 And after the uproar was ceased, Paul called unto him the disciples, and embraced them, and departed for to go into Macedonia. 2 And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much exhortation, he came into Greece, 3 And ...read more

    It is evident that in this text that something more than just the removal of a man from the treasurer position and the appointment of a replacement. It is clear to see that there is an eternal picture being painted in this portion of scripture. There is

    Isaiah 22:15-25 (KJV) Thus saith the Lord God of hosts, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, even unto Shebna, which is over the house, and say, 16What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewed thee out a sepulchre here, as he that heweth him out a sepulchre on high, and that ...read more

    God has a divine appointment for his people. He will set the crooked road straight, hold our hand in times of trouble and lead us toward a path of righteousness.

    How To Be A Priest

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Mar 21, 2015
     | 4,302 views

    So how are we like priests? We are appointed by God. We sacrifice ourselves and our desires to God. We continually pray to God about the human condition.

    Each and every one of us can be a priest! Does that statement make sense to you? After all, when we hear the word “priest” we often think of the ordained clergy who preside at weddings, funerals, baptisms or weekly worship services. The truth is, we are all priests. Let me explain by ...read more

    Being Prayerful Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Aug 23, 2019
     | 3,035 views

    Recognising that many prayers in the New Testament are in the plural and focus on community, not just individuals, this messages gathers many New Testament Scriptures to teach from Scripture how a church in fellowship together is to be a prayerful church.

    Note to preachers This sermon is a collecting of verses all about prayer. I used a power point presentation as I preached so the verses easily followed one another. On the power point I underlines where the words were in the plural to emphasise the community fellowship aspect of prayer. ...read more

    1 Timothy speaks clearly about the making of Leaders for God’s people today. I’ve discovered at least ten qualities that all begin with "M."

    Making of Leadership for God’s People 1 Tim. 3:1-7 God has a vested interest in the leadership of the church. He has always been directly involved and deeply concerned about those who lead his people. Think of the earliest great biblical leaders. The first one that comes to my mind is Moses. ...read more

    based on 25 ratings
     | 11,520 views

    Prayer is one of the seven marks of discipleship our elders have identified for our church. But in our prayer life, we often struggle over the issue of unanswered prayer.

    I read a story once about a woman who was dying in a hospital bed. Her two daughters were by her side. All day one of the daughters had been praying vigorously and passionately. But when the family’s pastor came to the hospital room, one of the daughters whispered to him, "I just can’t seem to get ...read more
