    Only Jesus

    Contributed by Neil Chadwick on Jul 27, 2002
    based on 27 ratings
     | 10,139 views

    So what then do we mean by "Only Jesus"? Because what we believe is based on what the Bible says, we’ll allow the answer to come from Scripture.

    Only Jesus If we were to ask some of the great Christian teachers to answer the question, "What one thing is necessary?", The great Apostle Paul might say - "Only Faith." (A favorite song of years gone by expressed it this way: "Only believe, only believe, all things are possible.") Certainly ...read more

    It would appear that the Bible condemns the accumulation of wealth. Many passages of Scripture seem to suggest that the accumulation of wealth is evil while being poor is virtuous but only the love of money is condemned

    Cut The Rope Series

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Feb 8, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 979 views

    This sermon challenges believers to trust Jesus as the "Waymaker" by cutting the rope of complacency, fear, and self-reliance, fully surrendering their plans and ambitions to God's authority and stepping forward in faith through the doors of opportunity He opens.

    Cut the Rope Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/sermons/ Apostle Paul exhorts us to “take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:5). While we often interpret this in terms of resisting sin, there’s a deeper truth here. Yes, with God’s help, we strive to ...read more

    Seeing God Through The Window Of Motherhood

    Contributed by Michael Pahls on Apr 10, 2001
    based on 185 ratings
     | 11,137 views

    Uses the maternal images of God in Scripture both to explore how the feminine enhances our apprehension of the person and nature of God, and to present a picture of redeemed motherhood.

    Seeing God Through the Window of Motherhood Isaiah 49:14-18 Isaiah 49:14 But Zion said, "The LORD has forsaken me, the Lord has forgotten me." 15"Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! 16 See, I ...read more

    Thank God For Families Series

    based on 54 ratings
     | 20,821 views

    In a time when many threats arise to undermine and destroy the concept of the traditional family, the scripture chimes clearly to defend the fact that the family is an institution created by God.

    I. Introduction · I was amazed and amused a couple of weeks ago to learn that President Bush has started a new initiative as a part of his welfare reform: he wants to promote the good qualities of a thing called marriage. · Imagine that!

    3rd Sunday of Easter, Series A -- When Jesus opens the Scriptures and opens our eyes, he goes from being a stranger to becoming a friend.

    A Walk with A Stranger – Luke 24:13-32 Intro: What do you talk about with strangers? Often it works well to discuss important events that everyone knows about: the war in the Middle East, the weather, the economy, etc. The afternoon of Jesus’ resurrection, it’s not too difficult for us to picture ...read more

    Antichrist

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Dec 13, 2001
    based on 99 ratings
     | 6,965 views

    Who, according to Scripture, is the antichrist? Instead of being a coming evil dictator, the Bible says the Antichrist was and is anyone who denies the incarnation and humanity of Christ Jesus!

    Many, today, teach that we are to expect the appearance of an individual, the embodiment of evil, who will rule the world and be the ultimate persecutor of the true Christian Faith and those who continue to adhere to it. They identify this person as the coming ’Antichrist’. The trouble with this ...read more

    No Room At The Inn

     | 8,656 views

    The inn was to full for Christ to come in. Throughout Scripture we see that there is no room for God. Is there room in your home, your life and your heart for Him?

    Introductory Considerations 1. It is a scene that is unmistakable. This scene is so identified with the birth of our Lord, that is has been banned from display in public places because it might offend those who do not believe it ever happened. 2. Scene is in a stable. Mary and Joseph and a wooden ...read more

     | 4,102 views

    There are many times in life when we feel alone and separated from God. The Scriptures, however, assure of of God’s constant presence and steadfast love.

    Psalm 22:1-5, 19-26 “Where Is God When We Need God?” INTRODUCTION One of the qualities of God with which humankind has always struggled is God’s hiddenness. God has certainly revealed himself in the person of Jesus Christ. God’s love, forgiveness, and God’s desire to have a relationship with ...read more

    The Good Old Days? Oh Please!

    Contributed by Pat Cook on Aug 12, 2005
    based on 27 ratings
     | 12,317 views

    Slightly sarcastic view of "the good old days". Like the scripture, this reminds people to live in the present, and not long for so-called better days of the past.

    Ecclesiastes 7:10 – The Good Old Days? Oh Please! Tonight, instead of looking at a major topic in Ecclesiastes, I am going to look at one verse. It’s a verse that speaks to all of us, no matter how old we are. 7:10. This verse is funny because it so much speaks to who we are, and what we ...read more
