  • The Language Of The Church

    Contributed by William Mouser on Aug 2, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,230 views

    Scripture -- all of it, read copiously over a long time -- shapes our minds and brings us light, far more than the narrow sectarian vocabularies of our cradle faith.

    Psalm 47, Exodus 28:1-4,9-12, 15-21, 29-30, 1 John 5:9-15, John 17:11b-19 The Language of the Church I read a lot of blogs focused on Bible and theology. Something I read this week dovetails nice with our Lord’s words in the gospel lesson appointed for today. There is an online version of a ...read more

    Today I want to talk about the two most important responsibilities in the church.

    Illus: An unknown person wrote a letter to the editor of the newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. The complainer said, "I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of ...read more

    The blooms of the fig tree always appear before the leaves in spring. When Jesus saw leaves on a fig tree, he expected the fruit.

    Let me begin by saying something about Jesus cursing the fig tree. You will also find this story in Matthew 21: 18 and 19. This tree was a fruit-producing plant which could be either a tall tree or a low-spreading shrub. The size of the tree depended on its location and soil. The fruit of the ...read more

    The Work Of The Church John 4:1-43 1 The Pharisees heard that Jesus was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John, 2 although in fact it was not Jesus who baptized, but his disciples. 3 When the Lord learned of this, he left Judea and went back once more to Galilee. 4 Now he had to go ...read more

    What Jesus taught about the church.

    Matthew 16:13-18 Baptist Distinctives: The Local Church Solomon said that there’s nothing new under the sun. With that in mind, I’ll give credit to Neal Cole for this sermon.

    Sardis

    Sardis: The Feeble Church Last week I was reading a book about a group of fighters battling for Good against insurmountable odds. Your typical fantasy book. In one the chapters, one of the best good fighters was dueling it out with one of best evil fighters. The book describes this climatic ...read more

    Sermon for "Old Fashioned Sunday"

    The Church of Acts (Acts 4:32-35) - Considering Old Time Religion I wondered about some of the old church habits - I wondered about how God would call us today to act knowing what He has already done - Tonight, let’s examine the old church; let’s get honest about what we need to do - Let’s ...read more

  • 4 Things A Church In Revival Will Have

    The Book of Acts gives the model of what an on-fire N.T. church should look like. Philip's revival at Samaria has four distinct signs of what should drive and characterize an awakening. If you want revival, then have a look at the real deal!

    4 THINGS A CHURCH IN REVIVAL WILL HAVE Acts 8:5-20 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Having the Right Perspective 1. I heard recently about a lady (I won't speculate as to what color her hair was) who went into a Napa auto parts store. She asked for a seven-ten cap. 2. The employees all looked at each other ...read more

    A New Beginning The Story - 28 May 1, 2011 It’s amazing what could happen in a short period of time, isn’t it? Two weeks ago, Jesus came into Jerusalem with screams of joy and celebration. Within the week, the people who cheered for Him, turned on Him and He was crucified. Then came ...read more

  • We Are In Christ And Christ Is Within Us

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Oct 2, 2025

     | 428 views

    The Bible in several locations mentions we are IN CHRIST as believers. • Galatians 3:26 • I Peter 5:14 • Romans 8:1 • Colossians 3:3

    What does this mean we are IN CHRIST? Because we cannot stand in these sinful mortal bodies before a holy God of heaven, He has to clothe us in the sinless body of Christ. • In II Cor. 5:21 when we accept His sacrifice on our behalf, that is we give Him our filthy righteous and He gives us His ...read more

    I want to begin a new series, not very long, but long enough. Several months ago, I noticed that I was reading quite frequently about churches closing the doors.

     | 3,184 views

    The Church continues the mission of Jesus Christ as one Body and is able to do so because of the prayer of that same Christ.

    Tuesday of the 7th Week in Easter 2019 Sometimes it helps us to understand that the Roman world in the first century did not speak Latin all over, or write in Latin all over the place. Most of the writing was done in Greek. And the Bible that they used was the Old Testament, because the New ...read more

    We can learn what kind of church Jesus wants us to be by looking at the distinctive identifying marks of the church in Jerusalem.

    THE CHURCH IN JERUSALEM Acts 6:7 INTRO. The verse we have just read is an excellent description of the church in Jerusalem. That church was the hottest church in the New Testament...or since. They were the poorest church (Paul took offerings from other churches to support them) and yet they ...read more
