Sermons on Brother Sins:

Real Life Requires Crucifixion Series

Contributed by Samuel Wilder on Sep 20, 2010

Running through Paul's writings is the power of the cross and our need to turn from our sinful nature and desires. This sermon speaks to that power and that need in our lives.

Do you know what I once was? I was once an enemy of God. I was once what Paul called, in Eph. 2:3, an object of God’s wrath, that is, his anger, his righteous indignation. I was wasting my life gratifying the cravings of my sinful nature as I turned down the voice of morality in my head ...read more

If

Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Mar 9, 2025

Struggling To Know Who We Are Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 14, 2010

Like Hosea's children, we name our selves by our sad history, by our isolation, and by our alienation. But in Christ our Brother all these defects are remedied.

A good many of us, I would guess, are less than happy with our names. What Mom and Dad decided to call us before we had a voice in the matter. Well, I suspect a good many of us would like to change. Some of us just refuse to use our real names. We go by Butch or Bud or Sissie or some such ...read more

Preparation For Separation Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Dec 10, 2021

How would disciples relate to God and the world once Jesus was gone? How do we relate to them now that the Holy Spirit has come? Jesus provides vital guidance for believers today.

Liberty And Grace

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Mar 20, 2023

Does grace mean that we are free to do whatever we want, even sin? Let's see what the Bible says about this in Romans 6.

There is a certain group of Christianity today that says that since we are under grace, we are free to live however we want, even if we live in sin. In other words, grace allows you to live in sin! This has always been a problem, even back during the Apostle Paul’s day. And so, he deals with this ...read more

Whose Slave Are You?

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Sep 27, 2021

We have all heard of Christians being referred to as servants, as sheep, as sons, as the bride of Christ, and as the body of Christ, but now we are told that we are slaves?

Alba 9-26-2021 WHOSE SLAVE ARE YOU? Romans 6:15-23 Slavery! That is a word that does not have a good connotation. It brings to mind a lot of things.

Sex And The Christian

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021

The pleasure found in sex is not embarrassing. While the movies portray marital sex as routine and ordinary, the Bible considers the lifetime sexual union between one man and one woman as both sacred and profoundly pleasurable.
