     | 6,263 views

    A sermon explaining that Satan was created as Lucifer, rebelled, was thrown down to earth, and still wages war - through us! Audio/outline/powerpoint will be at www.sermonlist.com

    I don’t know how many times over the years I have been asked who I think Satan really is. Now, that may not surprise you, but what should surprise you is that almost all of these questions came from people who referred to themselves as born-again Christians. That reminds me of an old Twilight ...read more

    Do you life UPtown or DOWNtown? Do you live a life of plenty, or do you live in a salt lands and parched place of the desert?

    Each one of us knows where we live, don’t we? We know which state welive in, which county welive in and most of us even know what street we live on.

    Lawnmowers Or Motorcycles?

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Jun 25, 2005
    based on 81 ratings
     | 9,676 views

    A sermon that shows the more risks one takes, the more one is fulfilled in life. And, the more risk a Christian takes for Christ, the more fulfillling His walk with the Lord will be.

    The word “walk” in the Bible often symbolizes the way in which we live; the way we act; and the way we conduct ourselves. It often depicts life as a journey, and it shows that Christians are people who travel around to other places. To ‘walk by faith’ is actually to live in the ’confident ...read more

    What Does God See?

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Jul 7, 2005
    based on 24 ratings
     | 3,207 views

    A sermon that discusses why most churches are failing in their walk with the Lord. We tend to walk about with a spirit of timidity rather than a spirit of boldness.

    Back in the first part of the last century, Cumberland College of Kentucky was playing football with a rival, and they were absolutely outclassed. They were losing miserably and the opposing team was bigger, stronger, and more intimidating than they were. One of their players fumbled the ball, ...read more

    Let’s talk about depression.

    based on 24 ratings
     | 13,748 views

    There is an old saying that says, “A loving God wouldn’t send anyone to hell.” That is a true statement. But what we forget is that God does not send us to hell - - we send ourselves. Audio will be at www.sermonlist.com

    As humans, we tend to take the truth of God and wrap it around what we are comfortable with, thereby ending up with a comfortable untruth.

    based on 55 ratings
     | 22,811 views

    We need to put our focus on Jesus at this time of year, and to help others do the same; by sharing the Lord with them; by loving them; and by actually leading them to Christ just as someone else led us to Christ.

    Christmas is a wonderful time of year. It is a time that we look forward to with joy in our hearts and eagerly anticipate what is about to happen. And, it was meant for us to feel that way. But, in the last few years, something terrible has happened. Somebody has stolen Christmas! Not only ...read more

    This sermon depicts the true meaning of what Christmas really is; through God’s forgiveness; His help in our storms; and the hope He gives us for our future.

    Last week, I talked about how Christmas is a time of love. God loved us enough to send His Son to be our sacrifice. Jesus loved us enough to be that sacrifice. And now, God wants us to love Jesus enough to sacrifice our will to Him. I explained that love is the willingness to sacrifice ...read more

    A message to remind us 1) what God has done for us 2) what He has promised us, and 3) where He is taking us. We must make the decision whether or not to take God into the New Year with us.

    So, all the presents have been unwrapped and even some of the gifts have been exchanged. The leftover turkey is all but gone and we have had to let our belts out a notch or two. All seems well and we are happy as can be – or are we? Many people find themselves depressed during the weeks ...read more
