    Get Used To Being Hated Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Jun 17, 2016
     | 10,170 views

    Jesus was hated by the world, for no other reason than He had come to reveal the Father. As those who are associated with Jesus we should accept the same level of hate.

    Message John 15:18-25 “Get Used To Being Hated” Living with teenagers can be heaps of fun. Especially when they go through that wonderful time of life called “puberty”. You just never know what is going to happen from one moment to the next. You can be quietly sitting in front of the tv. Your ...read more

     | 6,685 views

    What if the tomb wasn’t empty Easter morning?

    Today is Easter, Resurrection Sunday. Today we celebrate the empty tomb, Jesus victory over death, and the promise of eternal life. But what if the story had been different? Look with me at Luke 24:1-3 "But very early on Sunday morning the women went to the tomb, taking the spices they had ...read more

    Being Born From Above

     | 2,354 views

    Jesus tells Nicodemus that he must be willing to be changed into the person God would have him be. And I believe what Jesus said to Nicodemus applies to families and churches as well as to individuals.

    Being Born From Above – John 3: 1 - 17 Intro: 3 men died and were standing at the pearly gates. “What have you done to deserve heaven?” asked Peter. The 1st man, a police officer, said, “I enforced the law and fought crime.” Peter said, “OK, go on in.” The 2nd was a wealthy man who said, “I ...read more

     | 6,951 views

    During Jesus' ministry, there were times that Scripture records people going away from Jesus. This sermons looks at why people go away from Jesus, and where they go when they leave him.

    ***GOING AWAY FROM JESUS*** John 6:67-68 Dorn Ridge September 9, 2012 (Much of this message is a remake of a sermon by the late Medford Conley) INTRODUCTION: 1.)

    Getting The Right Gift For Jesus Series

    based on 50 ratings
     | 35,612 views

    There’s power in making the decision to give the gift He really wants: to "follow Him." But in this story in Luke, 3 men tell Jesus that that is precisely what they want to do. So why isn’t Jesus content with their gift?

    OPEN: About three years ago, Dave Barry made this observation about Christmas: "Your standard man, at this point in the Christmas season, has purchased zero gifts. He has not yet gotten around to purchasing an acceptable gift for his wife for last Christmas. He did give her something last ...read more

    To truly understand where we are going in life, we need to know the if the one who is leading us has the correct directions or if he/she are following someone else.

    How many of you in here tonight have heard of the GPS Navigational System? Its main purpose is to keep you from getting lost. But if the truth were known, the easiest way to get to a specific destination is either to know where you are going before you leave or to follow someone who already knows ...read more

     | 6,577 views

    To "Get Real!" and be genuine in our world, we must live in the state (condition) of showing our faith, not hiding it. We are challenged to see the unseen; live with certainty, and put our faith into practice.

    "Being Transformed To Be More Like Jesus As Worshipper Of God”

    Contributed by Barnabas Park on Jan 8, 2021
     | 5,088 views

    To worship God we have to be transformed by renewing our minds. Being transformed means being more like Jesus because Jesus is the best example of living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God. To be transformed like Jesus, we have to renew our minds resembling the mind of Jesus.

    “Being Transformed to be more like Jesus as Worshipper of God” (Romans 12:1-2) V.1 Therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, I urge you to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God; this is your spiritual worship. V. 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but ...read more

    Are we being obedient to Jesus (building our house on the rock) or are we being disobedient (building on sand)? What does obedience mean? This is a challenge to be obedient.

    Danger! Keep out. Beware of the dog! Don’t talk to strangers. Follow me. Make sure you’re home by midnight! Failure to comply will have consequences. Jesus brings the Sermon on the Mount to an end with a warning. Jesus does not beat around the bush. He is not woolly. He does not waffle. He is not ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,158 views

    Jesus is the "star" of Scripture and he is to be the star of our life. Is it he we are following or a star of our own making?

    “What’s in the stars for you?” Perhaps you remember seeing this huge front-page horoscope in the Edmonton Journal a few days ago. It may seem laughable to us that anyone would live his or her life by the “dictates of the stars” but the fact that the newspaper paid for the information and then gave ...read more
