    Two lifestyles, two destinies.

    THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED. Psalm 1:1-6. The Book of Psalms begins with a benediction.

    Where does one begin to travel down the road that leads to true happiness in this life and the next?

    As we began our consideration of the Beatitudes last time, we pointed out four general observations about our Savior’s teaching in Matthew 5:1-12. We said that the Beatitudes speak of God’s personal concern for us; that they declare nine positive facts, that they emphasize proper perspective in ...read more

  • The Proper And Improper Way Of Ministry Series

    Contributed by Manny Salva Cruz on Jul 24, 2016

     | 16,317 views

    Ministry should be the heart and soul of every Christian. When we minister, we must always find ways to keep on improving because at the end, God will is our judge. In this message we will learn how to do ministry the right way.

    Let me start with a quote from Rick Warren. He said, "Faithful servants never retire. You can retire from your career, but you will never retire from serving God." That is true. If you are a faithful servant of the Lord, there is no retirement here on earth because our retirement is in heaven ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,529 views

    Seek God, do justice - before it is too late.

    A BASKET OF RIPE SUMMER FRUIT. Amos 8:1-12. This vision and its interpretation is based in a pun: the Hebrew word for “Summer fruit” sounds almost identical with the word translated “the end” (Amos 8:1-2). Read Amos 4:6-11 for a litany of the temporal judgments which the LORD laid upon ...read more

    A court case - with the people of God in the dock.

    AGAINST HYPOCRISY. Psalm 50:1-8; Psalm 50:16-23. “A Psalm of Asaph,” reads the superscription. Asaph was a chief musician contemporary with King David (1 Chronicles 16:4-7). Asaph is also referred to as a ‘seer’ (2 Chronicles 29:30). Taken as a whole, the content of this Psalm appears ...read more

  • The Best Barn Of All

    Contributed by Lisa Skogsrud on Aug 20, 2019
     | 3,419 views

    We can avoid the problems in The Parable of the Rich Fool by building a "discipleship granary" to store the riches of God's grace that are ours in Jesus Christ.

    Sermon Luke 12:13-21 for Pentecost +8C, August 4, 2019 I don't know where the time has gone, but here we are in August, and the summer is more than half over! The days are still hot enough, but you've noticed the nights getting longer already, haven't you? The short growing season we ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,322 views

    A changed heart and a new life.

    PROMISES TO THE SINCERE. Isaiah 58:9-14. We who have heard His call and answered, “Here am I LORD, send me” (Isaiah 6:8) will now call on Him, and He will answer “Here am I” (Isaiah 58:9). When our ‘religion’ consists in more than outward rituals, and our deeds follow our souls in pity ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 9, 2022
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,620 views

    The unjust steward is not commended for his fraud, but for his thinking on his feet.

    THE PARABLE OF THE UNJUST STEWARD. Luke 16:1-13. For centuries interpreters have been more than a little puzzled, perplexed and disturbed by the parable of the unjust steward, at the beginning of Luke 16. The Emperor Julian, otherwise known as Julian the Apostate, even tried to use this parable ...read more

  • Luxury And Laziness.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 10, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,739 views

    There is the very real possibility that religious people are trusting in their religion, rather than in the true and living God.

    LUXURY AND LAZINESS. Amos 6:1a, Amos 6:4-7. Amos was a farmer from Tekoa, to the south of Jerusalem (Amos 1:1). The LORD called Amos to ‘Go, prophesy to My people Israel’ (Amos 7:15). The prophet’s ministry was thereafter directed mainly to the ten tribes of the northern kingdom of Israel, ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,688 views

    When we are walking in the way of the LORD, it is He who is leading us.

    HAPPY ARE THOSE WHOSE STRENGTH IS IN THEE. Psalm 84:1-7. At the end of the celebration of Passover, in Jewish homes scattered throughout the world, the parting toast is, ‘Next year in Jerusalem!’ The sentiment echoes a common consciousness, a restlessness if you will, which is forever ...read more

    Let no man deceive you.

    STAND FAST AND HOLD ON. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-5, 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17. The church of the Thessalonians had heard a rumour concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our being gathered together to Him (2 Thessalonians 2:1).

    Blessed to be chosen by the LORD.

    THE ALL-SEEING EYE. Psalm 33:12-22.

    Be prepared for the return of Jesus at an unexpected time.

    PARABLE OF THE SERVING MASTER. Luke 12:32-40. Jesus reminds His “little flock” that “it is the Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom” (Luke 12:32).

    No looking back.

    THE CALL OF ELISHA. (1 Kings 19:15-16; 1 Kings 19:19-21). The LORD’s practical response to His despondent servant Elijah was to call him back to duty, and to give him the responsibility for the anointing of: 1. A foreign tyrant (1 Kings 19:15; 2 Kings 8:11-13); 2. A new dynasty (1 Kings ...read more

  • Who Is So Great As Our God.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 1, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,573 views

    1-2. Importunate prayer. 11-15. Meditating upon the works and wonders God. 16-20. Remembering our salvation history.

    WHO IS SO GREAT AS OUR GOD? Psalm 77:1-2, Psalm 77:11-20. PSALM 77:1. “I cried unto God with my voice.” This sounds like one persistent prolonged or repeated cry. There is an intensity about it that cannot prevent it becoming vocalised, ‘out loud’ (as we say). The mouth utters what the heart is ...read more
