    Jesus Went With Them

     | 21,897 views

    SO, WE HAVE TWO THOUGHTS HERE. Jewish Elders tell Jesus this man Is Worthy - Roman Centurions friends tell Jesus that - He Is Not Worthy - Which one is it? - Either he is Worthy or He is Not

    TITLE: JESUS WENT WITH THEM SCRIPTURE: ST. LUKE 7:1-10 Have you ever been in a grocery store and had the privilege of watching a child who does not understand who is in charge? The mother would say, “PUT THAT CANDY BACK,” and the child would say, “NO,” and then rip the package open. The mother ...read more

    The Plot Against Paul Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on May 25, 2017
     | 8,272 views

    Alone, locked up, and held under guard; it would be natural for Paul to be depressed, fearful, and discouraged by all this. Perhaps he was secretly chastising himself for the commotion he had caused. He had failed and now what about his plans to go....

    Certainly -- At A Distance

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 18, 2003
    based on 36 ratings
     | 4,515 views

    For Good Friday: sometimes we no longer see things because we are too close to them. The disciples saw the cross "at a distance", but the centurion saw it through his callousness, cynicism, and skepticism, and affirmed, "Certainly".

    Sometimes when you are too close to something you cannot see it. Or at least you cannot recognize what it is. You can be so close that you do not know what you are looking at. You need somebody else to give you a fresh perspective. My wife and I buy grocery items when they are on ...read more

    The Centurion had purchased his freedom at a great price, but Paul was born free. Our freedom has been purchased at great price by the blood of Jesus Christ.

    Born Free Wednesday, July 2, 2008 By Pastor Jim May Acts 22:25-28, "And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said unto the centurion that stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and uncondemned?

    Jesus comes to the most unlikely people, and He does so for good reason. He has come to seek and save ... even you and me. Follow the story of many unlikely people and their transformation.

    Jesus Comes: Jesus Seeks and Saves A new year starts and many folks are already worried about the promises they made just before the new year began. It’s safe to say… we break promises; not because we want to, but because we simply do not have the fortitude to endure through the ...read more

    This sermon was preached on Easter 2002 as I was dressed in a Roman Centurion Soldier costume. I preached the sermon as the soldier that was an eyewitness to the events of the first Easter.

    Easter Sunday 2002; Sermon delivered in Roman Centurion Costume What a strange religion these followers of Jesus Christ profess. Giving their money to the poor, helping the rejected, believing a virgin can have a son, and that a man raised from the dead. That’s the impression we all have when we ...read more

     | 12,239 views

    What was it like to watch Jesus die? It would be great to hear from someone who was there. Let's hear from the centurion in charge of that crucifixion.

    AT THE FOOT OF THE CROSS [Monologue – Centurion] Introduction The old spiritual asks the question, “Were you there when they crucified my Lord?” Of course, physically, that is impossible since Jesus died on the cross nearly 2,000 years ago. Yet you do understand that He ...read more

    The Cross Made The Difference

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,051 views

    The Cross of Jesus made a difference for BARABBAS, for THE DYING THIEF, and for the CENTURION. It changed their lives, their direction, and gave them a vision of eternity. Has the Cross of Jesus made a change in your life?

    THE CROSS MADE THE DIFFERENCE Colossians 1:19-21 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: COMING UP SHORT 1. A man retired from British royal service. Three years later he was invited back to a party.

     | 3,386 views

    If you had followed Jesus around during his earthly walk, each day I am sure that you would have had a reason to marvel over and over again. On this occasion we read that Jesus marveled at the faith of the centurion.

    Title: “The day God dropped his jaw!” If you had followed Jesus around during his earthly walk, each day I am sure that you would have had a reason to marvel at his "amazing grace." You would have been awed by his wisdom and the majesty of his miracles. On this occasion we read that Jesus ...read more

    Seeing Through The Darkness Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 22, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,491 views

    This is a time of profound darkness, when many things we have depended on fail. We may be among the curious crowd or the concerned companions, but we will eventually see. Who will be the next converted centurion?

    When you are suddenly plunged into darkness, that darkness is profound, and you cannot see anything. But wait a while, let your eyes adjust, and if there is a glimmer of light anywhere, you will begin to see and you will make your way through. The darkness will not be quite as dismal as you first ...read more

    Shouts From The Savior

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Mar 19, 2018
     | 7,375 views

    The holiness of God recoils from even the smallest sin. When God the Father looked down and saw His Son on the cross, He didn’t see His Son; He saw the sin that He was bearing.

    [Read these passages with lights off] Zephaniah 1:14-15: “The great day of the LORD is near, near and hastening fast; the sound of the day of the LORD is bitter; the mighty man cries aloud there. A day of wrath is that day, a day of distress and anguish, a day of ruin and devastation, a day of ...read more

    Spiritual Discernment Series

    Contributed by Peter Loughman on Sep 22, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,932 views

    Peter is called upon to make a judgment: Is this man, the Centurion for real, or not? To accurately make the decision that is before him, Peter must set aside the ways he has discerned before, and he must step out in faith.

    In our Scripture this morning, we see that Peter has a vision where a blanket full of different kinds of food and a voice announces, Get up, Peter. Kill and eat.” “Surely not, Lord!” Peter replies. “I have never eaten anything impure or unclean.” Peter is very careful about what he eats, and with ...read more

    The Final Hours Of The Lord Jesus -From Golgotha To The Grave (For Now) Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 19, 2021
     | 1,494 views

    The Lord Jesus is in His last moments of agony and pain, both physically and spiritually as He completes His mission of redemption for fallen humanity. It looked on the surface, however, like a victory for his enemies and the devil as He died and was placed in a borrowed tomb, or so it would seem.

    (Adapted from an outline by Mark A. Copeland) Following a night and morning of torture, ridicule, and mockery, Jesus was taken away to be crucified (Mark 14:53-15:25). For six long, horrendous, cruel hours He hung on the cross, and to add insult to injury, He heard the continuing mockery ...read more

    Veterans are very special people. It takes great faith to be a soldier. The Roman Centurion demonstrated what great faith is and what a difference great faith makes.
