    Irreversible Decisions Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jul 12, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,445 views

    Many decisions are truly crossroads: you cannot reverse them or their consequences, try as you might. Therefore, we need to take decision making seriously.

    Irreversible Decisions (Numbers 14:26-45) 1. The most important thing about you is your God and your relationship to him. This is more important than: education, health, vocation, family, intelligence, talent, riches… 2. Near the top of the list, perhaps second, is who you are. The sum ...read more

    Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

    The Non-Decision Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Mar 30, 2016
     | 7,789 views

    Pilate declares Jesus innocent so Jesus should be set free. But Pilate also needs to compromise so he makes a “non-decision”. Pilate’s decision seems better than the decisive decision of the chief priests to call Caesar their king however a non-decision about Jesus is still a decision against Him.

    Message John 19:1-16a The Non-Decision. Have you ever been in one of those situations where you don’t really make a decision – but by not making a decision you actually make a decision? It might happen to a person who gets asked to join in on a Fun Run. You have to run 10km. You are not sure if ...read more

    Choices

    It is the old choice with which is still presented to every soul: the old crisis which reappears in every experience. Cesar or Christ, that is the question: the vast, attractive, skeptical world with it’s pleasures and ambitions, and its prodigal promises, or the meek, majestic and winning figure ...read more

    Decision Time

    Contributed by Michael Adams on Nov 22, 2018
     | 5,445 views

    This is a revival message, getting the Church right with God. We are in the last days and it is time the Church starts being the Church. Too many churches are going through the motions. They have zero outreach in their own communities. Oh they give to foreign missions but do nothing at home.

    Joshua 24: Decision Time This is a message that everyone here tonight will make a decision. Though it may never be made public God will know your decision. He will know if you as an individual will serve him and if this church, as a whole, will serve him. The word serve is used 413 times ...read more

    Mordecai and Esther’s coziness became challenged when Haman ordered the eradication of the Jews. The time had come for them to stand up and speak out for God. Are we willing to stand up and speak out for what is right? Maybe we have been put where we are for such a time as this!

    Dodging Decisions Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jun 21, 2021
     | 1,717 views

    What is often passed off as indecisiveness or propriety or procrastination is a dishonest attempt to keep from honoring what is right and fair. We can see Felix’s motives as an example. We can also see how God can use such red tape.

    Dodging Decisions (Acts 24:1-27) 1. So today we honor our graduates, and we honor our fathers. 2. I will honor our graduates with a joke: Why did Mary want to work at a Kentucky Fried Chicken outlet even though she'd received her B.A. degree? Because it had been on her bucket list for a long ...read more

    These verses tell us of the results of Jonah’s preaching. It seems everyone decided from the King all the way down to the youngest to repent. God always honors His word!

    God must honor his word, repent, or perish, Luke 13:5 I. The Common People 1. The people of Nineveh did not rebel against the message, they repented. 3: 5 a. Proverbs 28:13, only two things we can do with sin: confess or cover. b. John 6:60-61; 66-69 2. Their repentance was not delayed it was ...read more

    Today I would like to talk to you about being in the center of God’s will. God has created us with the ability to make decisions. It’s a wonderful privilege, but far too often it creates problems. If you’re like me we can make some bad decisions!! A long time ago I bought my 1st Harley ...read more
