    The Real Christmas Message (It's Not Just A "story")

     | 2,676 views

    We celebrate the birth of Christ, the only hope for this world, who gave his life for all mankind to rescue them from sin and death. And to everyone who believes in HIM, to them HE gives the promise of eternal life. This is the REAL Story of Christmas

    The Real Christmas Message* *I dislike the word "story" as in the Christmas "Story", as the word "story" gives a sense of fiction. CHRISTMAS IS A MESSAGE of TRUTH that needs to be told and heard around the world. Arranged by William Akehurst, HSWC We celebrate the ...read more

    Pilate's Wife

     | 3,961 views

    It is surprising, and sad, that the only testimony (in effect) on Jesus’ behalf during the trial was made, not by any of Jesus’ disciples, nor apostles, nor followers, but by Pilate’s wife.

    Pilate's Wife Matt. 27:11-26 The chief priests with the elders and scribes and the whole council of the Sanhedrin had decided to put Jesus to death. They had Jesus brought before Pilate the governor to pronounce the death sentence. (Mark 15:1; Luke 22:66; 23:1) Pontius Pilate was the fifth ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,760 views

    Introduction: This passage of scripture that I will be preaching from is surrounded by situations that seem to be impossible to deal with.

    And they are impossible as for as man is concerned. For example, in Mark chapters 4 and 5, we read of situations that only the Lord Jesus could deal with. • In Mark 4:38, Jesus and His disciples were sailing on the Sea of Galilee when a tremendous storm overwhelmed their boat. The storm was so ...read more

    God has given us all a conscience. This conscience can cause us to have a lot of GUILT!

    Illus: The minister rose to address his congregation. "There is a certain man among us today who is flirting with another man's wife. Unless he puts $100.00 in the collection plate, his name will be read from the pulpit." When the collection plate came in, there were 19 one hundred ...read more

    These commandments deal with every segment of society.

    Illus: A preacher was talking to a teenage girl one day about the Lord when she told him, “I have a hard time living up to the Bible." Then she added, "But I do try to live up to the ten commandments." To hear this young lady talk you would think she rejects all scripture except the ...read more

    This sermon explores principles that can help us get "unstuck" in life from a little book by Travis L. Thomas titled "3 Words for Getting Unstuck: Live Yes, And!" alongside the text of Hebrews 10:1-18.

    "Your Grief Will Turn To Joy!”

     | 3,715 views

    Like the disciples we must wait “a little while” to receive everything Jesus has promised us. And like the disciples there will be a time of grief while we wait. But Jesus promises that our grief will turn to joy.

    “In a little while you can go out and play.” “After a little while we’ll be going to the pool.” “After a little while I am going to be serving pie and ice cream.” “In a little while we’ll your mom and dad will be home.” “In a little while you can take a break.” “The doctor says that after a ...read more

    Sometimes we hear about the “Endangered species” list. That is, there are certain kinds of birds, fish, animals, and insects that die and become few in numbers because of hunting or natural disasters.

    When this happens, they are placed on the “Endangered Species” list so that they will not become extinct. Once they are placed on this list, everything that is imaginable is done to preserve them. This is good, because if they were not placed on this list, soon these birds, fish, insects and ...read more

    Overcoming The Bitter Root

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 3, 2022

     | 5,379 views

    Bitterness arises from failing to forgive someone who has wronged you. It comes from clinging to bad memories or hurtful experiences from the past and not letting them go. Many times bitterness will give rise to vengeance.

    Our sermon this morning is entitled, “Overcoming the Bitter Root.” Bitterness can be defined as harboring resentment and unforgiveness in our heart toward another person. Bitterness is also defined as, “extreme enmity,” “a grudge,” or “hatred.”(1) The meaning of the word bitter itself is, “sharp ...read more

    Show Me Your Glory

    When God chooses to open up the flood gates and rain down His showers of blessing, we usually don’t realize it until after we are completely drenched. This message brings encouragement to those who are facing trials and difficulties.

    This morning’s message is entitled, “Show Me Your Glory,” and I want us to look at God’s blessings today. I want to open by having us consider how the Lord’s blessings are similar to a jet aircraft flying at supersonic or near-sonic speeds. Did you ever hear a jet fly overhead and you looked ...read more
