     | 15,653 views

    It's hard to understand a little that Jesus is both Lord and friend. In this sermon I look at the relationship we have with Jesus and that He cannot be friend without Lord or Lord without friend … they come hand in hand!

    John 15: 9-17 9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. ...read more

    This church had itself rooted in these strong leaders, but also, most importantly, in Jesus Christ Our Lord. How do I know that the Colossian church had strong roots in Christ? I can tell because of their fruit.

    ROOTS AND FROOTS COLOSSIANS 1:1-8 INTRODUCTION READ COLOSSIANS 1:1-8 I. THE ROOTS OF THE COLOSSIAN CHURCH The roots of the Colossian church are ones that run deep.

     | 2,478 views

    Through the centuries, men of God have been digging sermons out of this Bible the same way a gold miner digs gold out of the earth.

    And, just as there is plenty more gold yet to be dug out of the earth, so there are plenty more sermons that have not yet been discovered in the pages of this sacred Book. The Lord is so great that ministers have not come close to exhausting the materials in this Bible that describe His ...read more

    I admit that I am not much of a gardener, but let me share what I know. The best way to garden is to put on a wide brimmed straw hat and some old clothes. And with a hoe in one hand and a cold drink in the other, tell somebody else where to dig. I’d be a great gardener if I could only grow green ...read more

    We have the right to pursue happiness. However, we soon discover that happiness is fleeting. Joy is better, but how do you find, obtain and keep it?

    What is "physical fruit"? "An outward evidence of the inward nature of the tree." (We know an apple tree is an apple tree because is produces apples). Likewise, if we are walking in the Spirit, we will evidence His inward presence.

    THE APPLE OF LOVE In John 15:8, Jesus declared, "In this is My Father glorified, that you bear much fruit, so shall you be My disciples." We glorify the Father and prove that we are followers of Jesus, when we produce the Fruit of the Spirit. The Fruit of the Spirit is much ...read more
