    The Brand Of The Cross Series

    Contributed by A. B. Simpson on Oct 8, 2009
    based on 8 ratings
     | 8,664 views

    It is the cross of Christ which is the object at once of His shame and His glory. This classic sermon by A. B. Simpson looks first at the marks of the Lord Jesus, and then at their reproduction in His followers.

    "From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus" (Gal. 6:17). The word marks in this text is translated by Rotherham, "brand marks." The world describes a mark that has been branded into the flesh, and suggests the idea of the cruel practice of certain ...read more

    Do we really make a difference in this world? Has the church become insignificant today? Churches have a high calling to honor God in their attitudes and actions.

    Hebrews 10:23-25 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so ...read more

    BETTER ALIVE THAN DEAD (ROMANS 12:1-2) Pete and Larry had not seen each other in many years. Now they had a long talk trying to fill in the gap of those years by telling about their lives. Finally Pete invited Larry to visit him in his new apartment. “I got a wife and three kids and I’d love to ...read more

    There are two ways to approach life, with a clenched fish or an open hand. A clenched fist person says: “All I have, I have gained on my own.” An opened hand person says, “All I have, God has provided and blessed. I am just a manager of all God has gi

    But if we believe that it is the Sovereign God who gave good things and bad things – adversity, or whatever trial and difficulty, should we not accept whatever He allows or even causes to happen in our life?

    “On another day the angels came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came with them to present himself before him. And the LORD said to Satan, ‘Where have you come from?’ Satan answered the LORD, ‘From roaming through the earth and going back and forth in it.’ Then the LORD said to ...read more

    Our text reveals the difference of thinking in the disciples and the Lord.

    INTRO.- When Jesus heard what had happened, he withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. Hearing of this, the crowds followed him on foot from the towns. Crowds of people followed Jesus. That’s not surprising, considering what He did and how He ministered to the people. Have you ever ...read more

    Seeking God's Heart - Lord's Prayer Week 2 Series

    Contributed by Matthew Stoll on Nov 29, 2006
    based on 7 ratings
     | 7,158 views

    Our prayer life must begin with our relationship with our heavenly Father. God wants us to spend time in his presence even before anything else so we can know his heart. Only afterward should we pray for our needs and the needs of others.

    Last week we looked at how prayer is one of the primary ways in which we stay connected to God, or the way Jesus said it, to abide in him, or to be in a relationship with God. All of these terms describe the same thing. Prayer was how Jesus stayed connected to God his Father when he walked the ...read more

    In the ancestry of the King we see wonderful evidences of the grace of God.

    Scripture Today is the first Sunday of Advent.

    Advent. It is hard to do an orignial John the Baptist advent sermon isn’t it? I give it a go. Our life circumstances do not determine the validty of who Jesus is. Also, John 1:6-9, 15-16,19-23.

    There are starting to be more movies with biblical themes coming out – the Nativity is the latest.

    The purpose of this message is to inspire you to go to the next level in God for your life. Since Jesus is alive, and He is, then if you go to the tomb you will not find him there. He is a living Christ and you cannot find him in dead things. So many th
