    Are You Still Being Saved Today?

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Jan 19, 2009
    based on 20 ratings
     | 4,113 views

    A message of how our salvation is not something relegated to the past; something that happened to us "once", but is actively being worked on in the present.

    We Christians talk a lot about our being saved, don’t we?

    A sermon for 17th Sunday After Pentecost/Proper 18 A preached Sept. 7, 2008 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, Iowa. It happened to be Sunday School/Christian Education Rally Day.

    The fear of God is a theme that is mentioned throughout the Bible. But it is a subject that has been neglected by many pastors and teachers of God’s word today. The fear of God is a very important aspect in a Christian’s life because it is a characteristi

    Christians are free to follow their conscience in ethical “gray matters” but must not offend a weaker Christian’s conscience.

    Four Keys To Being Rewarded By Christ

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 1, 2006
    based on 30 ratings
     | 2,938 views

    This message concentrates on the fact that not everyone receives rewards from Christ and four of the things we need to be doing to make sure that we do.

    BIG POINT: “Not everyone is rewarded by Christ.” - vv. 24a, 27b. - v. 24a makes it clear that being in the race does not mean you win a prize (although I think the analogy breaks down at the idea that only one person could win a prize). - v. 27b is talking about being disqualified for a prize, ...read more

    our church has faced tremendous tragedy with the loss of Skylor Barret. But rather to face tragedy with God than without Him.

    Intro: does good really come out of bad? Is there a blessing in the midst of tragedy? Are there benefits to facing suffering, grief, sorrow and loss? If the answer is no to these questions, than being a Christian isn’t any better than being in the world. As a Pastor I would say, we cry the same, we ...read more
