    Church Discipline – Spanking Ourselves So God Doesn’t Have To – Part 5

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Sep 28, 2020
     | 1,559 views

    If we want to be a powerful church, we need to be a clean church - a holy people.

    In Cleveland a few years ago, this banner proclaimed the virtues of a certain grade of motor oil: "A Clean Engine Always Delivers Power." This is what church discipline is all about--a clean church. If we want to be a powerful church, we need to be a clean church, a holy people. (1 ...read more

    The second sermon in a short series on the Church.

    On This Rock (Part Two) Text: Acts 1:1 – 11 If you remember from last time we talked about how you can learn about something by looking at its origin or it’s beginning. And we’re looking at the Church. Last Sunday we saw how Jesus is the originator of the Church. He’s ...read more

    In this installation service we briefly examine the qualifications and duties of elders, deacons, and the congregation.

    Scripture It is our great joy today to install one man, who has been duly elected by the members of this congregation, into the office of Ruling Elder. The church is a living community of people redeemed by Jesus Christ. No one is more visible to the watching world than those who are in ...read more

    Why Is It So Important For Christians To Meet Together?

    Contributed by David Leach on Jan 25, 2014
     | 11,611 views

    Why do we need meetings anyway when we could just sit at home and read our Bibles?

    Why is so important for Christians to meet together? What’s our real purpose for coming to this meeting of Christians – which is the Church? Honestly, why am I at this particular meeting of the Church? Habit, duty, to please someone else, to gain favor with God or do I have a really ...read more

    The Day The Holy Spirit Came Series

    Contributed by James Lee on Nov 4, 2014
     | 6,619 views

    Dealing with a number of issues at EBC led me to a series by Pastor Jerry Shirley which God has graciously allowed me to revise and use to speak to our congregation.

    “The Day the Holy Spirit Came” Acts 2: 1-4 D. L. Moody once said, “I believe firmly that the moment our hearts are emptied of pride and selfishness and ambition and everything that is contrary to God’s law, the Holy Spirit will fill every corner of our hearts. But if we ...read more

    Be Focused On People, Not Property Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,216 views

    It is important to note that the church is comprised of people. It is not a building. If we fail to remember this fact, we might make the mistake of directing our energies into preserving property instead of rescuing those who are perishing.

    In Matthew 16:18, we read where Jesus said to Peter, “You are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.” When Jesus stated that He would build His church “on this rock,” He was not referring to the location where they were standing, and He ...read more

    Looking at the church, but looking at how we have allowed sin to filter in.

    Various Scriptures October 23, 2022 I don’t think I’ve ever spoken about Halloween during a sermon, but today is your lucky day. I’m not going to condemn Halloween, but want to point out some parallels between our world today and the origin and meaning of Halloween which goes back 100's of ...read more

    Dealing With The Lost 1 Of 5

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 7, 2022
     | 1,532 views

    God put the church here for a specific purpose! It is obvious today as we look at many churches and compare them with the scriptures, that many churches are ignorant of their purpose.

    Ignorance is something we see in all areas of life. Illus: When Vice President Al Gore was seeking to be president, he was running against President George W. Bush, who is known as a man of FAITH. God is a big part of his life. Gore knew that the polls indicated that the American people liked ...read more

     | 1,382 views

    This is the third message in our series of the church dealing with the lost.

    One thing we all will agree on is that a church should be a place where sincere Christians have gathered for worship and to see from God’s Word how they can reach the lost. Illus: The story is told of a two thousand member Baptist church that was filled to overflowing capacity one Sunday morning. ...read more

    I want to talk to you again about THE CHURCH REACHING THE LOST.

    There are a lot of misunderstandings about God’s church, but one of the biggest misunderstandings is about the purpose of the church. There is a reason that churches all over this nation, week after week, month after month, and year after year never win any souls to Christ. WHAT IS THE REASON? ...read more
