    Being Prayerful Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Aug 23, 2019
     | 3,042 views

    Recognising that many prayers in the New Testament are in the plural and focus on community, not just individuals, this messages gathers many New Testament Scriptures to teach from Scripture how a church in fellowship together is to be a prayerful church.

    Note to preachers This sermon is a collecting of verses all about prayer. I used a power point presentation as I preached so the verses easily followed one another. On the power point I underlines where the words were in the plural to emphasise the community fellowship aspect of prayer. ...read more

    Unity in the church is not forgetting out differences; but, working with them by loving and service each other and our community.

    Being One – John 17: 20 - 26 Intro: The Matterhorn is one of the highest peaks in the Alps rising 14,692 feet. Four men attempted to climb the northern face of the Matterhorn, all roped together. As they crossed a particularly treacherous place, one man lost his ...read more

    "Be Perfect” Series

    Jesus said, 'You therefore must be perfect'. What an unreasonable demand! And yet, there are so many reasons to strive for it.

    INTRODUCTION We’re continuing in our series in the Sermon on the Mount. In our passage for today, Jesus starts by saying, ‘Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.’ What do you think of that!? Back in March I told you about an interview I heard on Radio 4. The reporter was ...read more

    Being A Radical

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jul 26, 2022
     | 1,150 views

    Reform is what Jesus was looking for. He was called a radical. The Pharisees took notice of what He was doing. Corruption was destroying Judaism. Is it happening to Christianity today? When humans create an organization eventually corruption sneaks in.

    Being a Radical John 4:1-6 Rev. Dr. Michael Harvey Koplitz John 4:1 And Jesus knew, that the Pharisees had heard; that he made many disciples, and baptized more than John. 2 Yet Jesus himself did not baptize but his disciples. 3 And he left Judaea, and went again into Galilee. 4 And in going, he ...read more

     | 11,861 views

    God's will for each of His children is that we live the joy sustained life.

    In this passage, the apostle Paul clearly tells us some things that are God’s will for each of us in Christ Jesus. Since success in life could be defined as “Knowing the will of God and being in the center of it,” this passage is one that we should carefully meditate on and seek ...read more

    The tenacious widow serves as a lesson about prayer for us. God doesn't mind if we are prayerful pests. He'd much rather have us pray for any reason or any occasion than have us remain silent.

    Luke 18:1-8 “Being a Pest” INTRODUCTION Prayer is one of the core spiritual disciplines of the Christian life. Billions of Christians have prayed throughout the millennia (along with those of other faith traditions). Thousands of books have been written on the subject of prayer, ...read more

    God calls upon His people to have a thankful heart and an "attitude of gratitude."

    Paul mentions three things that are God’s will for each and every one of His children. In this series, we have considered how it is God’s will that we be joyful (v. 16) and prayerful (v. 17). Now, we will turn our attention to verse 18, where we are told that it is God’s will for each of His ...read more

    BEING BLESSED Psalm 1 Everyone wants to be blessed. I have never met anyone yet who wanted to be cursed and not blessed.

    What is meant by having joy in serving? We are to be humble like Christ.

    This passage is comparative to Isaiah 53, the prophecy of the suffering servant. There are several characteristics of Christ that are brough about in this passage of scripture: 1. He has consistently existed with God. 2. He is equivalent to God since He is God. (John 1: I, Colossians ...read more

    Immediately following the Beatitudes, Jesus turned the instruction from character qualities of his followers to their function in the world as salt and light. Matthew 5:13 warns about failing to function as salt.

    Intro We have found in our study of the Beatitudes that a certain kind of person is blessed (approved and favored by God). This follower of Christ has the same characteristics developed in him that we see in Christ. He is poor in spirit, mournful of anything that does not glorify God, meek, etc. It ...read more

    John 13:1-17, 34-35 Being Disciples You wouldn’t think it would be all that difficult. We are all formed from the dust of the earth, but the same Creator.
