    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 15, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 20,388 views

    Imagine yourself there that night. The tenth plague was more frightening than all the others: Death was loosed on the streets. Wait! The voice of God’s Mercy spoke: “There is an exception: all who take refuge under the blood will be spared!"

    “WHEN I SEE THE BLOOD” Ex. 12:6-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: COMPLAINING EVEN IN HAPPY TIMES 1. A lady entered a department store and was startled when a band began to play. Then a company executive pinned an orchid on her dress and handed her a crisp $100 bill. She was the store’s 1 millionth ...read more

    With a the prophecies of the end of the world given to us, can we tell when Jesus will return?

    The End of the World as We Know It Matthew 24:35-39 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as ...read more

    Genuine Expressions Of Love

    Contributed by Davon Huss on Mar 14, 2020
     | 2,954 views

    Let’s apply these principles in 2 Corinthians 6:3-13 of expressing love in a practical way to our love for others (adapted from Bob Russell's book, Take Comfort, the chapter on genuine expressions of love)

    HoHum: No point in going to see the person dying, will not even know I am there. Hold their hand- “they probably will not know it is me”- is that really the point?- just to have someone there- they’ll know we are Christians by our love- behold how they love one another WBTU: We normally think of ...read more

    The Evidence Is Right, But The Story Is Wrong Series

    What do you do when facing false accusations? What do you do when accusers have "fact" to destroy you. Joseph taught us how to handle false accusation.

    THE EVIDENCE IS RIGHT, BUT THE STORY IS WRONG "And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her. And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to do his business; and there was none of the men of ...read more

    HoHum: In Stockholm, Sweden, a lady was pinned beneath a streetcar. She was seriously injured and bleeding badly. A crowd collected. They tried to move the streetcar, but it was too heavy. There was nothing to do but wait for the heavy equipment to come. She was in great pain. She was losing ...read more

    Looking for God to Bless you, even when you are surrounded by you enemies

    Verse 16 says “Don’t be afraid for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.” Turn to your neighbor and say neighbor God wants to bless us. Isn’t that good new today. For the essence of time please allow me to get right into the text. At the time of this text there is a serious ...read more

    Where are you made? When you dig deep down what is there that determines your character, your strength, your direction, your faith?

    Made in Jerusalem “you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” 1 Peter 2:5 Intro: Jerusalem is built on a mountain plateau and is surrounded by the Kidron valley on the east, ...read more

    The Earth Is The Lord's: An Exposition Of The 24th Psalm

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Jul 10, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,230 views

    The 24th Psalm was probably written for the occasion of the Ark being carried to Jerusalem in the Day of King David. But it also speaks about a better King.

    The Earth is the LORD’s: An Exposition of the 24th Psalm Introduction When I think of Handel’s Messiah, without doubt one of the greatest of all sacred music ever composed, I think of the chorus “Lift up your heads; O ye gates” which is taken from the 24th Psalm which we will be looking at today. ...read more

    Getting Our Requests Granted 2 Of 2

     | 992 views

    In this sermon, I want to give you a gift. It is a pearl. THE PEARL IS IN THE FORM OF A PRAYER!

    Why do I call this prayer a pearl? Because a pearl is found in unlikely places. This prayer is found in a very unlikely place. The Book of Chronicles is the official family tree of the tribes of ancient Israel. In fact, there are nine chapters of “so and so begat so and so.” Most of as, we ...read more

    28. Romans Chapter 6 Verses 19-23 - Messages In Romans – Dead To Sin; Slaves Of Righteousness. Sanctification, Eternal Life And Death – Message 28 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 7, 2025
     | 177 views

    Chapter 6 ends the contrasts we had been looking at. We must not use our bodies for impurity but slaves for the Lord in righteousness. Paul ends with being freed from sin with sanctification leading to eternal life. BUT for the unsaved he states the wages of sin is death. A rich chapter indeed.

    28. ROMANS CHAPTER 6 VERSES 19-23 - MESSAGES IN ROMANS – DEAD TO SIN; SLAVES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. SANCTIFICATION, ETERNAL LIFE AND DEATH – MESSAGE 28 [1].

    Immaturity (Sixth Sunday After Epiphany, February 12, 2023)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Feb 10, 2023
     | 1,631 views

    In the very first verse Paul has stepped on toes! There are two words that illustrate well how Paul stepped on their toes. These two words, “carnal” and “babies” lose some of their emphasis as they are transliterated from Greek to English.

    IMMATURITY Text: 1 Corinthians 3: 1 – 9 1 Corinthians 3:1-9 And so, brothers and sisters, I could not speak to you as spiritual people, but rather as people of the flesh, as infants in Christ. (2) I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you were not ready for solid food. Even now you are ...read more

    HoHum: The story is told of a woman who was saved later in life. Wanting to make up for lost time, she committed entire portions of Scripture to memory. She hid God’s Word deep in her heart. As the years passed by and her mind and eyes grew dim, many of these scriptures slipped from her memory. ...read more

    A sermon about relying on Christ and Christ alone.

    “It All Comes Down to the Cross” Philippians 3:1-21 As we read our Scripture Lesson for this morning, it quickly becomes apparent that the church in Philippi had been infiltrated by a group of Jewish teachers who were telling them that salvation could only come to people who followed certain ...read more

    Epaphras' Wrestling Ministry

    Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 5, 2022
     | 2,512 views

    We usually think of prayer as peaceful, but Paul described Epaphras as “wrestling” in Col. 4:12 with the word “agonize.” The same word is translated as "STRIVE" in an Olympic event and as "FIGHT the good fight of faith!" Join the wrestling match!

    EPAPHRAS' WRESTLING MINISTRY Col. 4:12 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Bonehead Bandits 1. Two teenagers robbed the Grandon City, Kansas public library. They raced up to the counter with an empty pillow case. “Put it in,” they demanded of the clerk. “Put what in?” “The money. Put it in and nobody’ll ...read more

    Falling Into Hell

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 6, 2022
     | 2,604 views

    In Numbers 16, we have the rebellions of Dathan, Abiram, and Korah warn us about evil associations, show us God's mercy in judgment, and give us a vision into the tragedy of people falling into Hell. Ends with a gripping illustration.

    FALLING INTO HELL Numb. 16:28-34 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. An optimist and a pessimist spent a week together on a tropical island. “Isn’t this ocean just amazing?” the optimist said. “The endless horizon, the crashing waves, the soft sand...it makes you appreciate the beauty of our planet.” ...read more
