    A Real Savior Bringing A Real Salvation

    Contributed by Daniel J. Little on Jan 5, 2012
     | 3,079 views

    The old man Simeon took one look at Jesus and said, "FOR MY EYES HAVE SEEN YOUR SALVATION." Many people sit in close proximity to salvation and never see it.

    When Hell Comes To Planet Earth

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 27, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,968 views

    We shouldn't be surprised by the increase of evil in the world today; it was predicted by the Apostle Paul in 2 Thess. 2:1-12. Its growth indicates how close the Rapture of the Church is.

    WHEN HELL COMES TO PLANET EARTH 2 Thess. 2:1-12 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: WE’LL CALL YOU It's tough enough getting a job. Try not to commit these interview gaffes, as reported by actual hiring managers: "The candidate arrived in a cat suit." "The candidate sent his sister to interview in his ...read more

    Wholly Devoted Eyes Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,789 views

    To be wholly devoted to God, we must have wholly devoted eyes. To have wholly devoted eyes we must have eyes that are focused on God, closed to evil, and open to the needs of others.

    Introduction: A. The story is told of a woman who rushed to her doctor. 1. Looking very worried and all strung out, she rattled off, “Doctor, take a look at me. When I woke up this morning, I looked at myself in the mirror and saw my hair was all wiry and frazzled up, my skin was all wrinkled ...read more

    The Tragedy Of Trash Talk Series

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on May 3, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 16,876 views

    The real tragedy of talking trash is that it hurts people and damages our relationship with God. How we treat (speak of) others not only affects them, but it affects our own closeness with God.

    The Tragedy of Trash Talk James 4:11-12 11 Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it. 12 There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the ...read more

    The Gospel: Preaching With Compassion Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,499 views

    The Galatians responded to the gospel, grew in their faith and had a close relationship with Paul. For some unknown reason after receiving their freedom in Christ they took a turn back to bondage. They started following the regulations of the law.

    Whales are one of the most impressive creatures on earth. It’s amazing even to watch a film of them swimming in the ocean. They are an inspiration with their strength, majesty and freedom. But tragically with their immense size they become trapped when they have come too close to shore. For ...read more

    The Indispensable Light Of Christ Series

    Contributed by Ron Tuit on Oct 27, 2015
     | 8,081 views

    Jesus gives His second sermon on "The I AM's of Jesus" in the context of the Feast of Tabernacles. There is a great significance in His choice to bring this message, "I am the light of the World" at the closing of this feast.

    THE INDISPENSABLE LIGHT Of CHRIST (John 8:12-20) Did you ever consider the fact that the Lord Jesus gave sermons? Much of what Jesus taught concerned the witness of Himself. One of the sermon series that Jesus preached is the “I AM” sayings of Jesus, which were emphatic ...read more

    How Does Personal Spiritual Growth Connect To The Church? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Sep 30, 2020
     | 1,852 views

    Paul closes out his second letter to the Corinthians with a plea from his heart for their spiritual growth. Why do we today so seldom see that at a practical level in our churches?

    - I should note as we begin that v. 8 is a difficult verse. Its meaning is not clear. It’s not essential to grasp that verse in order to be able to understand the larger point that Paul is making, so we’re just going to lay it aside this evening. There’s not any benefit tonight in spending a ...read more

    The Persecution Paradox Series

    Contributed by Jefferson Williams on Jul 30, 2020
     | 3,946 views

    We shouldn’t be surprised when persecution comes. In fact, Jesus closes out the section of the Beatitudes with a paradox. We will be persecuted. It’s inevitable. But the blessing we will receive is out of this world!

    The Jesus Manifesto: The Persecution Paradox Matthew 5:10-12 Chenoa Baptist Church Pastor Jefferson M. Williams It Has Begun It’s been fourteen months since that fateful day in September 2026.

    Fellowshipping With The Father And The Son - Part 12

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Aug 3, 2020
     | 1,507 views

    Even with a strong knowledge of the Word and a close relationship with the Father, you and I are still susceptible to being tempted by and succumbing to the allures of the world and its lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and the boastful pride of life.

    (1 John 2:12 NKJV) I write to you, little children, Because your sins are forgiven you for His name's sake. (1 John 2:13 NKJV) I write to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, Because you have overcome the wicked one. I write to you, ...read more

    Will Christians Go Through The Tribulation Period? (Xi) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Mar 22, 2021
     | 4,702 views

    Message explores the readiness for Christ's coming called for in the Olivet Discourse. Three parables give insight on specific aspects of being prepared. The Judgment of the Sheep and Goats is also examined closely.

    Biblical Readiness for the Rapture: Intro In this message we continue to learn from the Olivet Discourse lesson about the coming of the Lord and how we are to respond to it. Last week we concluded with the point of Jesus’s message in Matthew 24: maintaining an ongoing readiness for his return. ...read more

    The Difficult Dilemma Of Death

    Contributed by Richard Lankford on Jul 11, 2022
     | 1,701 views

    One of the most trying and penetrating moments of our lives come, when we are forced to face the reality that someone we have loved so closely and so dearly is no longer with us in this world.

    Even for many of us, that have been saved... born again...and filled with the Scriptures from God's Word, there can come those moments in life, when it becomes difficult for us... to "Understand God". It's hard for us to understand - what God is doing!... It's hard for us to ...read more

    Open Door Of Opportunity Series

     | 4,777 views

    When you find that God has opened a door you do not want to miss the blessing of going through it. Once Jesus closes that door there is nobody who can open it.

    Oftentimes life’s great opportunities last only for a moment. You must seize that moment. It is the time to grab the brass ring. Take advantage of the opportunity or it will be gone. I am talking about real life changing opportunities that we have. These are the moments when you sense there is a ...read more

    The Major Events At The Cross Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Nov 27, 2024
     | 530 views

    John was an eyewitness of the crucifixion, and he closed his account of the crucifixion by saying “the man who saw it has given testimony, and his testimony is true…that you also may believe.”

    The most significant event in history is the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. We are saved by His death. Because He died, we live. But there IS a condition. We have to believe, and it’s the necessity for belief that John stressed throughout his gospel. He was an eyewitness of the crucifixion, and ...read more
