    Contributed by William Mouser on May 17, 2005
    based on 9 ratings
     | 4,955 views

    Combinging Jesus’ teaching on the coming Comforter and the testimony of a contemporary Christian apologist, this sermon urges appropriation of the Spirit’s ministry comes best by learning to listen to a still, small voice.

    Psalm 33, Ezekiel 11:14-21, 1 Corinthians 12:4-13, John 14:8-23 Hearing the still, small voice Today we note two birthdays, both of them mentioned in the bulletin.

    Strong Words For A Worldy Church Series

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Jan 8, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,145 views

    There is probably no more appropriate book in the Bible to the western church than 1 Corinthians. The early church was by no means perfect. However that is no excuse for not living a life surrendered to the sanctifying work of Christ.

    based on 70 ratings
     | 10,835 views

    Jesus’ first miracle was at a jubilant wedding at Cana. From the circumstances and process of the miracle we learn much about the way our Lord operates as well as the appropriate response to Him.

    Entire Sanctification Defined

    Contributed by Darin Gary on Jun 25, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,006 views

    So many within the HOLINESS MOVEMENT (non-charismatic), ORTHODOX METHODISM, and WESLEYAN-ARMINIAN Churches (and, sometimes educational institutions) struggle with understanding, appropriating, and teaching BIBLICAL HOLINESS.

    ENTIRE SANCTIFICATION DEFINED (Leviticus 19:1-2) “…the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, [2] Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am holy.’” Entire Sanctification is a term we hear; and, often ...read more

    Contributed by Pat Damiani on Aug 28, 2015
     | 9,456 views

    To eat Jesus’ flesh and to drink His blood means to believe in Jesus…by personally appropriating His sacrificial death… and by continually partaking of His life

     | 1,632 views

    There are many shadows of the Cross in the Old Testament. It is appropriate to meditate on this day. May the Lord bless you. I will boast only about the CROSS of JESUS CHRIST (Galatians 6:14).

    Good Friday Meditations Theme: Shadows of Cross in Old Testament Text: Leviticus 16:20-22 Good Friday service: It is only a commemorative service and not exactly observation of the exact time of the Crucifixion.

    Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 10, 2019
     | 3,515 views

    These are the last words of the New Testament—the apostle John did not know that he was closing the canon of Scripture. If he had known, he could not have closed it more appropriately.

    Like guardrails on the highway, God’s wisdom gives us guidance on how our desire for intimacy can be channeled in an appropriate direction, without bringing harm to us or others.

    Who's Shaping You? Prov. chapter 5: 1-23 Prov. 6:20-35 In our study of the Book of Proverbs we find that the promise of success for the righteous and destruction for the wicked need to read as general principles that are usually—but not always—fulfilled on this side of glory . ...read more

    based on 173 ratings
     | 11,792 views

    Where do your priorities lie? Originally written as a Thanksgiving sermon, most of this sermon would be appropriate to challenge people to examine their priorities (e.g. beginning of the year, Lent, etc).

    <P>Thanksgiving Eve Service - November 22, 2000 A Money magazine article several years ago told of the life of a woman who saved 80% of everything she earned, investing it all in the stock market and turned it into a $22 million fortune within 50 years.
