    Unto The Church In Ephesus, Write Series

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Sep 6, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,604 views

    Ephesus is one of the churches that got things half right, yet entirely wrong. The church must have doctrinal purity, but not at the expense of love.

    Unto the Church in Ephesus, Write Revelation 2:1-7 Introduction Last week, we were introduced to the magnificent vision of Christ which John saw, which left him as though he were dead. This was similar to the vision that several of the Old Testament prophets had seen with a similar feeling of ...read more

    I Will Build My Church

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 12, 2013
     | 8,089 views

    There are many misconceptions about what Jesus' universal church is. Is it a denomination? Is it all churches combined into one? Is it the clergy? This sermon deals with many of these misconceptions and shows what God reveals about His church.

    In the context of Matthew 16, we see what many people think about Jesus. It is interesting that so many people saw His miracles and signs, and had such contrasting responses. This seems to be the main point of this section we will look at today. Many saw the miracles and signs (the Sadducees and ...read more

    The church made perfect by suffering

    Unto the Church in Smyrna, Write Revelation 2:8-11 Introduction Last week, we examined the letter the Lord directed John to send to Ephesus. This week we will examine the letter sent to Smyrna.

    There is no room for mixing other religions with Christianity.

    Unto the Church in Thyatira, Write Revelation 2:18-29 Introduction Thyatira was the smallest of the seven cities which John addresses. Even though it was small in size, it did have a vibrant economy. It was known for its wool, bronze, and manufacture of a purple dye which was used in dyeing the ...read more

    Unto The Church At Sardis, Write Series

     | 3,786 views

    A church can compromise itself out of existence and find itself at war against God.

    Unto the Church in Sardis, Write Revelation 3:1-6 Introduction Sardis was the fourth church to which Revelation was sent. It had at one time been a very powerful city, the capital of the Lydian empire. It was ruled by a man named Croesus whose wealth was the subject of the proverb “richer ...read more

    The Church Under Pressure - Sardis Series

    Contributed by Graham Kettle on Dec 7, 2017
     | 7,525 views

    Churches can refuse to face the reality of their spiritual condition before God. Styles and traditions can become so fixed that they continue and become empty of Holy Spirit power. Good works and a nice church format are not what God is seeking.

    THE CONTENT CHURCH - SARDIS READING Rev 3:1-6 INTRODUCTION Churches can refuse to face the reality of their spiritual condition before God.

     | 5,021 views

    Indeed, the deepest meaning of the Song of Songs is the celebration of the love of God, the Bridegroom, for His faithful people, seen as the dark beauty, the Bride.

    Thursday of 3rd week in Advent 2017 Reformation/Revolution The beautiful Song of Solomon, or Song of Songs, is on the surface a long love song, or compilation of love songs. It celebrates the love of husband and wife, the longing of one for the other, and the joy that can come from a loving and ...read more

    The Church Of The Open Door - Philadelphia Series

    Contributed by Graham Kettle on Dec 19, 2017
    based on 2 ratings
     | 12,016 views

    Philadelphia always stayed faithful to the Christian faith until the end of its history, a powerful testament to the nature of a church for which Jesus had no admonition nor condemnation. God grant that we, too, may have that faithfulness to the end.

    THE CHURCH OF THE OPEN DOOR READING Rev 3:7-12 1. HISTORY OF PHILADELPHIA Philadelphia/Alesehir is located approximately 80 miles east of Smyrna/Izmir and 26 miles southwest of Sardis. It stands on the Cogamis River, a tributary of the Hermus river. Philadelphia always stayed faithful to the ...read more

    The Church Of The Closed Door - Laodicea Series

    Contributed by Graham Kettle on Dec 19, 2017
     | 10,531 views

    Laodicea was the second of the seven churches of Asia to receive no commendation from the Lord. Such a state requires us to look very carefully at this church, which lived within an affluent society whose attitudes clearly rubbed off on the church.

    THE CHURCH OF THE CLOSED DOOR READING Rev 3:14-22 1. INTRODUCTION Laodicea was the second of the seven churches of Asia to receive no commendation from the Lord. Such a state requires us to look very carefully at this church. Can it teach something to us today? We shall see as we move through ...read more

     | 31,460 views

    Mark records what happened when Jesus came to church. The normal order was interrupted, the people were amazed, the forces of evil were disturbed, and the oppressed were set free. The same thing should happen today when Jesus comes to Church!

    WHEN JESUS CAME TO CHURCH Mk. 1:21-28 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: FAITH BETTER THAN ATHEISM 1. I read about a rabbi who was sitting next to an atheist on an airplane. Every few minutes, one of the rabbi’s children or grandchildren would inquire about his needs for food, drink, or comfort. 2. The ...read more

    Be The Church: Watch, Wait, & Worship

    Contributed by Jonathan Meyer on Nov 15, 2017
     | 12,271 views

    Jesus speaks of our need to prepare for His return. We are encouraged to live lives of worship and devotion to God as we watch and wait for the Bridegroom. (This is part of our lectionary-based series for November 2017, "BE the Church.")

    Last Sunday we had a gender reveal party to find out if we’re having a boy or a girl in April. I was so convinced it was a boy, based on how different the first trimester had been this time around. But then, with friends gathered around, we popped a large black balloon with question marks all over ...read more

    An Ode To The Messed-Up Church Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Sep 11, 2020
     | 1,938 views

    This passage details the numerous efforts the Paul made to get the Corinthians back on track and the harsh reality that some churches are just a mess.

    - Maybe start with the story of Pastor Mark and church “J.” THE SITUATION FOR THIS MESSED-UP CHURCH: 1. Paul handled his ministry there with integrity. - 2 Corinthians 12:11-12, 17-19. 2. Paul sacrificed for them. - 2 Corinthians 12:13, 14b, 15-16. 3. This was not the first time he’d tried ...read more

    The Church Has Left The Building Series

    Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Sep 21, 2020

     | 18,353 views

    Many of the churches -- and by churches, I mean Christians -- have forgotten the church is meant to thrive outside the walls of the church house by serving others and by being a means of God’s Grace. It is time for the Church to leave the building.

    TITLE: THE CHURCH HAS LEFT THE BUILDING SCRIPTURE: ST. MARK 16:15 On last Sunday I preached from the subject “THE CHURCH” – this morning I want to continue that message or Part-II and tag this message – “THE CHURCH HAS LEFT THE BUILDING.” I remember when I was still relatively young, Elvis ...read more
