    Taking hold of salvation requires a diligence on our part.

    Introduction: When I went to school at Freed-Hardeman, we were required in our English literature class to read part of John Bunyan’s book Pilgrim’s Progress.

    Introduction: If I were to ask those of you who are mothers, do you like for your children to come up and give you a big hug, I suspect you would say, “Of course!” But, let me ask you, are you always anxious and willing to have your beloved child run up to you and put their arms around you? ...read more

    Contributed by Larry Wilson on Sep 12, 2011
     | 6,495 views

    In Sermon 4 of the series, PAUSE Before You Act, we admonish the believer to see if what he or she is about to do violates God’s commands. I.e., am I about to commit a sin in my response to a situation?

    Please note that, while this sermon may be preached in stand-alone fashion, it is part of a series. You may wish to take a look at the first three sermons. Especially helpful would be sermon one which lays the foundation. Also, there is a companion sermon called THINK Before You Speak. IV. S – ...read more

     | 5,167 views

    Hopelessness is the doorway to hope and Christ is our doorway to eternal hope. The promise of hope in the future is our hope in the present, amen?

    How many of you have had the experience of praying to God and it seems like God is not listening or not answering your prayer? All of us, I would suspect. Sadly, I’ve seen that take people out of the faith. God didn’t answer their prayers so they either turned their back on God or concluded ...read more

    When it comes to our personal relationship with God and with others, Jesus taught that personal goodness is more valuable than personal greatness.

    INTRODUCTION When I was a pastor in Alabama, we lived next to a cemetery. Most days I would jog through there; the residents never complained. I enjoyed reading the tombstones.

    Our job as parents and grandparents is to create a desire in our kids for the things of God.

    INTRODUCTION One of the things I love about the Bible is that it is so full of variety. Last week’s passage we were talking about God’s definition of marriage, a pretty deep subject.

     | 26,913 views

    Like Simeon we need to realize that if all we had was Jesus Christ, that would be enough; with Jesus, our life is complete and we can be content.

    Children often dream about things they would like to do in the future. I suspect traveling in space as an astronaut, playing football in the NFL, making the Olympic figure skating team, or driving a $100,000 sports car are some of the more popular ones. When I was growing up, I dreamed of being the ...read more

    Isaiah spoke words of comfort to Israel even though God had already revealed the judgment to come. Those words of comfort still ring true to the Body of Christ today.

    THE KING IS COMING! Isaiah 40:1-11, "Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God. Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath received of the LORD’S hand double for all her sins.
