    I Pledge Allegiance To A Hiding God

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 7, 2002
    based on 41 ratings
     | 7,210 views

    The recent "under God" court decision is inconsequential. Far better to pledge allegiance to a God who does not need publicity and lip service, but who points us to acts of justice, liberation, and witness.

    In every age there are those who feel they need to help God out of hiding. God, it seems, is never without public relations agents, who want to help Him get His name out. They have their own reasons – some of them well-intentioned, and some of them selfish – but the truth is that God does ...read more

    The power and privilege that is ours in the blood covenant that we have in Christ.The access to the throne is on the strength of that blood, the voice that speaks on the mercy seat is that of the blood and it speaks better things and provides security aga

    Power of Blood Covenants I’m going to share with us briefly, on the Power of Blood Covenants. I’ll take the scriptures from Hebrews chapter 10 verses 19-22 "Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for ...read more

    If our actions do not support our words then it would be better if we remain silent, for what we do does speak so loud that the world cannot hear what we say.

    MIXED MESSAGES "Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying: ’These people draw near to Me with their mouth, and honor Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me, and in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men." Matthew 15:7-9 We often hear the ...read more

    “Why is our Christianity not more contagious? Why are we not winning more of our friends, relatives, and associates to Christ? Why are we not better witnesses?” Because we are not obedient to the command to "Go Fish!"

    Go Fish Matthew 4:18-22 Introduction Illustration: describe fishing & my experiences…then…relate it to Christianity. A question to ask Jesus: “Why is our Christianity not more contagious?

    Human beings cling tightly on what belongs to us, and yet God showed us, through His Son, that there is a better way to walk through life – not with clenched fists, but with open hands of love.

    Dreaming God's Dream

    Contributed by Don Baggett on Oct 28, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,350 views

    As you realize that God has something better for you, as you remember he has chosen and called you, and as you rely on Him, you can dream His dream for your life.

    People generally go in the direction they aim, and they generally aim in the direction they dream, or imagine themselves going. Everyone needs a dream to follow, but God’s people need to follow a specific dream, and that is the dream that God has for them. I recall asking one little boy what he ...read more

    This message was shared with the church as we approach a transitional period through which we will address the needs of the church and add ministries, classes, and outreaches to better enable us to reach our community for Christ

    Introduction Q. What do you spouse people picture in their minds when we mention Porter Free Will Baptist Church? • For the unchurched, they may envision a tan brick building which sits on a hill behind Gampps’ BP. • For the Christian community, they may envision the people that utilize that ...read more

    There is no better exercise for the heart than reaching down and lifting someone else up. The Wise men who came to see the Christ child helps us see this lesson at it’s best!

    Introduction I asked a group of fifth graders "Who are some of the wisest men you know..." their answers are classic! "My Papa...my next door neighbor Mr. Lee..." but the best of all, "the man who makes the machines work when they break at Chucky Cheeses..." Long before this list, there were ...read more

    The Game Of Greed

    based on 16 ratings
     | 12,454 views

    There are so many voices out there trying to get us to play the game of greed, but we are much better off if we listen to the voice of God calling us to be content with what we have.

    The Game of Greed I Kings 21:1-10 June 24, 2007 Now, this is my opinion. Feel free to agree or disagree. I really believe that network television programming is at an all time low for creativity. We are in an era when it is so expensive to produce programming that network executives are looking ...read more

    If we dont’ want to become weakened or hardened in adversity, but change the world around us, we must throw aside our own efforts at self-betterment and trust Christ with our lives.

    A daughter complained to her father about how hard things were for her. “As soon as I solve one problem,” she said, “another one comes up. I’m tired of struggling.” Her father, a chef, took her to the kitchen where he filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots ...read more

     | 8,310 views

    Jesus meets a sick man, and Jesus question to him seems odd - "do you want to get better?" But sometimes what we want and what we need are two different things.

    Not everything is as it Seems. John 5:1-15 Jesus is heading up to Jerusalem for a Feast of the Jews (doesn’t say which one) On his way he passed by pool that in Aramaic is called Bethesda archeology has uncovered these pools and they had colonnades or covered parts and the invalid and ...read more

    The face of Barabbas is truly the face of good fortune. Never has a better thing happened to a man on the day of his expected crucifixion. Jesus of Nazareth probably died on the cross that was prepared for Jesus Barabbas.
