    Portrait Of The Church Series

    Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Nov 8, 2006
    based on 6 ratings
     | 3,494 views

    This is the first sermon in a series addressing the need for the Church to preserve its nature and purpose the way Christ intended it. This sermon speaks largely to the meaning of true fellowship.

    PORTRAIT OF THE CHURCH Some of you may ask why I titled this study on Corinthians “Preserving the Church in a Pagan World”. You may even object to the word “preserving” as sounding too much like maintaining or holding out against the world when the Church should be boldly invading our world. ...read more

    biblical descriptions of the church

    Intro: what is the common thought associated with the word church. A steeple, pews, stain glass windows, pipe organ or hymnals. When Jesus said, I will build my church, what did he mean?

    What can we learn today from the Church at Ephesus, one of the seven churches in Revaltion2 -3 ?

    Many people are frightened by the book of Revelation, because it seems to be unintelligible. I hope that, if not tonight, by the end of this sermon series at Advent, you’ll see that not only is it reasonably easy, with some careful background reading (which I’ve done on your behalf), for ...read more

    the next sermon in the series on the seven churches of Asia

    And so we come to the church at Thyatira. This is the longest of the seven letters, which, ironically, was written to the smallest and least important city. Unlike the other towns, we don’t know very much about Thyatira, so it’s not so easy to understand and interpret the contents of the letter. ...read more

    The message to the church in Sardis and it’s relevance to us today

    Over the last few weeks in the United Reformed Church, we’ve been looking at the stories of some churches, and seeing what they might have to say to us today. These stories are in the book of Revelation, and they take the form of letters that were written to these churches. Like all of the book ...read more

    How to spot and deal with troublemakers in the Church

    (Acts 20:17-30) "shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock." It was not unintentional that God chose to use the illustration of Shepherd, Sheep, and wolves, to speak of the church. It is in fact a very accurate portrayal of life in the church. The Lord speaks of Himself as ...read more

    Thoughts about Labor: ¡ñ One day a fisherman was lying on a beautiful beach, with his fishing pole propped up in the sand and his solitary line cast out into the sparkling blue surf. He was enjoying the warmth of the afternoon sun and the prospect of catching a fish. About that time, a businessman ...read more

    All Christians are called into God’s Church. And all are given gifts that they may play their part in the life and ministry in the Church. Each person’s gifting needs recognition, not least by church leadership

    In that passage from Ephesians chapter four that we heard, Paul begins by saying that he wants his Christian readers to live lives that are worthy of the calling they have received; lives which are ’worthy’ in the sense of being worth-while and of refelcting that calling- that their calling by God ...read more
