    The Church Mission

    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Mar 10, 2024
     | 635 views

    The church is failing in its mission to preach and teach the Gospel to every nation, people, and tongue as Jesus commanded, because we are busy preaching feel-good prosperity-based messages.

    And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; ...read more

    Thank you Pastor jerry Shirley for this outline If I was going to literally set the church on fire I wouldn’t announce it on the sign out front But I’m praying the we will be set ‘on fire for God!’

    The town atheist was not a bad man, he just didn’t believe. He was not interested in church. There was only 1 church in the area and it was a cold and dead social club, where no decisions were being made. **One day the church building caught on fire, and the whole town ran toward it to help ...read more

    The great commission of the church is to spread the Word of God to reach people with the Good News of Christ.

    Prayer- Introduction- We began last week looking at the church of God. I say the church of God because there are churches not asking God for help or following God directions for the church and if you look close at that church, you’ll see that they do not have the anointing and power of God ...read more

    Why Church Matters Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,666 views

    The Christian Church is about Jesus Christ! The church matters because the church makes it possible for people to have real encounters with Christ.

    Why does the Church matter? Why is Church important? As we ponder such questions in the coming weeks, I am going to take time at the beginning of each sermon to share my answer to the question of the day. I will do this because I think on some matters, we express ourselves best when we speak from ...read more

    What shall the Church’s response be to the disaster of 2008?

    Dedication of St. John Lateran Sunday, Nov 9 2008 In case this feast is somewhat confusing, let me just say that it has nothing to do with bricks and mortar. It has to do with being the Church.

    The Holy Spirit Of Witness And Division Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 21, 2018
     | 3,379 views

    The Spirit empowers, but the Spirit also divides. Because the Holy Spirit causes us to change our lives, and to summon our family and friends to the Christian way of life, conflict often emerges in relationships.

    Thursday of the 29th Week in Course 2018 The phrase, “fire that Our Lord came to cast down upon the earth” is reminiscent of an encounter Jesus had in his earthly life with James and John, sons of Zebedee. Some town had refused hospitality to Jesus and the disciples, so those two asked Jesus for ...read more

    verse 1:8 is the key verse in the book of Acts. It’s what Acts is all about. It’s the story of the early church. Notice that it tells us that we are going to have power, and that the power will be from the Holy Spirit, and that we are to be witnesses.

    Witnessing by the Holy Spirit Acts 1:6-8 (KJV) 6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? 7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his ...read more
