Seeing Clearly Series

Contributed by Grant Macdonald on Jan 17, 2012

Everyone is a slave to something. The NT gives us only two options--either we are a slave to sin, or a slave of Christ.

For the past couple of weeks we have been talking about beginning 2012 by refocusing our faith. We started with the idea that we need to make sure that our focus is on Christ—not ourselves. By that I mean that the Christian Faith should never be focussed on what the Christian does so much as ...read more

New Birth Pt 1 Series

Contributed by Carl Greene on Sep 11, 2008

This sermon explains why Jesus says we all must be "born again". It also goes into an explanation of what is a sacrament and why we baptize. This sermon is based upon John Wesley’s sermon #45 by the same name preached in 1760.

First, a little humor: A preacher once heard about another preacher who gained notoriety by preaching the world’s longest sermon. He felt led to preach some kind of notable sermon, too, and get in the record books. But he didn’t want to bore people with a long sermon. So he decided he would ...read more

Sermon # 45 - The Two Sons Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 20, 2025

Abraham had two sons, one born according to the flesh and the other according to God’s promise. Both of them were in complete contrast to each other. It is not enough if we are born according to the flesh, because the Lord demands that we are born again through the Holy Spirit.

For today’s meditation we will look at Galatians 4:22-23, “Scripture says that Abraham had two sons, one by a woman who was a slave and the other by a free woman. Now, the son of the slave woman was conceived in a natural way, but the son of the free woman was conceived through a promise [made to ...read more
