    Three keys to successfully sharing our faith 1. Deciding not to worry 2. Deciding to stand firm 3. Deciding to live a radically different lifestyle

    Kirby Bellars 18-04-07 Christian witness from Luke 21: 5-19 This morning I would like to focus on our Gospel reading.

    Effectual Fervent Prayer

     | 47,749 views

    Prayer is both an incredible privilege and an awesome responsibility. It can move the hand of God in situations where there is no other hope.

    Effectual Fervent Prayer James 5:16 KJV Prayer does not equip you for greater works. Prayer is the greater work. ---- Oswald Chambers As mature Christians we are naive to ignore or deny the reality of spiritual conflicts between good and evil and our role in them as believing saints. Our main ...read more

    Assurance Of Salvation

    Contributed by Don Baggett on Dec 1, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,807 views

    Some people should not have assurance, because they are not saved, but when saved people do not have assurance, they are robbed of the joy of the Christian life.

    It is not an unusual occurrence for someone to share with me that they are plagued, from time to time, with doubts about their salvation. Some people should not have assurance, because they are not saved, but when saved people do not have assurance, they are robbed of the joy of the Christian ...read more

     | 5,314 views

    Paul and Barnabas. Through this narrative these two servants of God manifest examples of seven qualities that make for effective spiritual ministry.

    Qualities of an Effective Servant Acts 14:1-28 Intro Admittedly this lengthy narrative passage contains no explicit teaching on God’s requirements for effective service. It does, however, present two highly qualified and effective servants who modeled the qualifications necessary for all who ...read more

    There is much truth in the humorous adage that some people make things happen, others watch things happen, while still others are left wondering what happened. What is true of individuals is also true of churches. Some churches are dynamic, aggressively

    Making A Positive Impact For Jesus

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 7, 2007

     | 6,343 views

    John the Baptist made a big impact on many people. This sermon encourages people to make a positive impact (for Jesus) upon people, and not simply to be going through the motions

    Just occasionally we come across someone who makes a big impact upon us. Early in my life John Stainer made an impact upon me. At the time he had a big bushy beard – a bit like I imagine John the Baptist. John was my Sunday school teacher (John Stainer that is, not the Baptist), and he made an ...read more

    Your neighbor is anyone God puts in your path who has a need.

    Who Is My Neighbor? Luke 10:25-37 OPENING ILLUSTRATION: Have someone come to the baptistry before the sermon begins and lie down. The person stays there until near the end of the sermon. At the end of the sermon, I go over and ask if he is ok. I describe the fact that many times we don’t notice ...read more

    Living a life that is centered on Christ.

    Covenant 08

    Contributed by Joseph Neil Adams on Jan 6, 2008
     | 2,265 views

    We often get carried away thinking everything is all about us & our own personal Jesus, but the Holy Spirit wants us to understand that we do not exist in isolation. Just as when we get to heaven we will be part of a huge family, there is a corporate side

    Promises are made to be broken. That’s what it seems like in the world isn’t it? It’s what seems to be going on in scripture too. A Covenant is of course just a promise, like in the covenant of marriage, & it can be between human beings alone or God & human beings. A very important part of a ...read more

    Mokusatsu! During the closing weeks of World War II, the Allies issued the Potsdam ultimatum to Japan. The emperor of Japan wished to end the war in July, 1945. The proud war lords and governing body delayed. They announced a policy of "mokusatsu," which means to ignore, or to refrain from comment. ...read more
