    Behold The Lamb Of God Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jan 18, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,395 views

    John the Baptist is a great model of Christian ministry - he's willing to direct people away from himself to Jesus. he wants the glory to go to Jesus not himself and points others to Jesus even at his own cost.

    I like John the Baptist. He’s such a contrast to the dominant model of the celebrity today. I assume you’ve noticed how important the cult of the celebrity is today. When celebrities speak it’s all about them. It’s just assumed that everyone is interested in what ...read more

    Resurrecting that little voice we have laid to rest is not impossible, but succeeding in life without it is! [Story of Herod, the lap dance, and the death of John the Baptist] Link included to formatted text, audio, and PowerPoint Template

    Death of a Conscience Matthew 14:1-12 http://gbcdecatur.org/sermons/DeathOfAConscience.html What a tragic story. John the Baptist is murdered by King Herod Antipas in cold blood.

    "The Benediction"

    Contributed by Bryan Beverly on Jun 14, 2015
     | 6,736 views

    This benediction (composed from various songs, scriptures and traditions) encourages believers to bless God and asks God's blessings upon them. This is shared in honor of my birth church - The New Metropolitan Baptist Church - where it was composed.

    The Benediction Praise God from whom all blessings flow! Praise God from whom all blessings flow! Praise God from whom all blessings flow! - Why? Because: God and God alone created everything we call our own; From the mighty to the small, the glory of them all, is God’s and ...read more

    Appearance Of The Lamb Of God

    Contributed by Olusegun Ayobami Sanni on Jan 29, 2020
     | 2,196 views

    It is clear to us all that John the Baptist came ahead of Jesus Christ to prepare the way and to make things right. Whatever position you hold in the Church, don’t be too shy, don’t be a rebellious type

    Aim: Jesus has been around for almost thirty years but nobody really heard about him except when he was twelve years old when he was seen in the temple and nothing was heard about him until this time he appeared at the river where John was baptizing. People are in a hurry to appear so soon today, ...read more

    The Baptism Of John Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jun 21, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,881 views

    Re-baptism is a practice of some Baptist churches. This message looks at re-baptism in the New Testament, and discusses how when a person’s baptism is done under the wrong belief system, then the individual needs to be re-baptized.

    I have entitled our message this morning, “The Baptism of John.” We have recently been learning about baptism, and today, I am going to be discussing false baptisms; and the best way to present this message is by looking at what the New Testament refers to as “the baptism of John.” This was a ...read more

    Herodias Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 23, 2022
     | 5,398 views

    Herodias in the Bible is notorious for being the woman who desired John the Baptist's head on a platter. She was the unlawful wife of the tetrarch Herod Antipas and had formerly been Herod's brother, Philip.

    Herodias Herodias was a princess of the Herodian dynasty of Judaea during the Roman Empire. Christian writings connect her with John the Baptist's execution. Born: 15 B.C. Died: 39 AD, Lyon, France Spouse: Herod Antipas (m. ?–39 AD), Herod II Children: Salome, Salomé II Parents: ...read more

    A Baptism By Fire

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,909 views

    Fire is a fierce, frightening force and we do not usually associate it with Jesus. However, this message shows how Jesus came bringing what John the Baptist calls an “unquenchable fire,” referring to God's judgement.

    A teenager walked into the local Catholic church and sat down in the confessional booth. He wanted to talk about how strict his mother had been with discipline, as he was seeking a sympathetic ear. The session began with the priest asking, “What would you like to confess, my son?” The young man ...read more

    The sermon discusses how John the Baptist paved the way for Jesus Christ's arrival through water baptism and forgiveness of sins, and emphasizes Jesus' deeper role in baptizing us with the Holy Spirit and fire for our purification and healing.

    Have you heard of the incredible ministry called Mercy Ships? This ministry began in the late 1970’s when a follower of Christ took a step of faith and purchased a large ship with the intention of turning it into a floating hospital. He had no idea how to run a shipping company or how to find a ...read more

    Christ Followers can anticipate persecution from the world. However, they are called to live holy, gentle lives in the midst of a fallen world, honouring the Father through righteous lives and by inviting the lost salvation in Christ.

    “When Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced before the company and pleased Herod, so that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask. Prompted by her mother, she said, ‘Give me the head of John the Baptist here on a platter.’ And the king was sorry, but because ...read more

    The Body Of Christ – Part Ii Series

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Mar 11, 2016
     | 6,196 views

    There is only one body, but many members. We are all dependent on one another. It is not just the pastor’s job to care for the members of the body—that would be humanly impossible. Each member must function as he or she is called.

    We continue our study of His Church and begin by looking at 1 Corinthians 12. (1 Cor 12:13 NKJV) For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body; whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free; and have all been made to drink into one Spirit. 1 Cor 12:14 For in fact the body is not one ...read more

    A Harvest Of Peace

     | 9,502 views

    As gardeners grow beauty, so also we must grow peace: speak truth without prejudice; pass judgments but do something to help the troubled grow; pay attention to our own hearts; and settle for nothing less than Christ as the full truth.

    As if we did not have enough yard work to do at home, my wife and I have taken on a gardening project at the church to which we belong, Montgomery Hills Baptist Church. The landscaping had deteriorated, and so a gardening team was formed to take care of it. My wife volunteered; I got volunteered. ...read more

    Dealing With Tensions And Conflicts In Churches And Church Organisations – Practical Examination And Suggestions – Part 5 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 21, 2024

    Some important things here. Firstly, the church business meetings! The trouble these have caused. We look at Pastors’ and elders’ wives and behaviour. What about the leaders’ kids running around unsupervised? All dealings must be impartial. Must teach on Christian responsibility.

    DEALING WITH TENSIONS AND CONFLICTS IN CHURCHES AND CHURCH ORGANISATIONS – PRACTICAL EXAMINATION AND SUGGESTIONS – PART 5 This is the final part in the series. This next subject is near the end in the collection I had, but for some churches it can be a nightmare. I am going to share some ...read more

     | 8,351 views

    This sermon is based on Acts Chapter 8. We desperately need a revival to sweep our nation and the world. The sermon outline is borrowed from Sermon Central, but the sermon was built by myself to fit the church I pastored at the time.

    City-Wide Revival Acts 8:1-8 8 And Saul approved of their killing him. On that day a great persecution broke out against the church in Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. 2 Godly men buried Stephen and mourned deeply for him. 3 But Saul began to ...read more
