    Can You Believe That?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025
     | 185 views

    Jesus is ready to work powerfully in every believer’s life. Faith welcomes His presence and purpose. Unbelief closes the door on His miracles.

    There’s a strange thing happening in our world today. People have no trouble believing in the unbelievable…but when it comes to believing in God, suddenly we need proof, evidence, and footnotes. Surveys show large numbers of people believe in ghosts, UFOs, and reincarnation. Some even believe in ...read more

     | 4,245 views

    In closing out a series on the last part of the Letter to the Church at Rome, this sermon examines Paul’s use of personal names and how they tie to some of the themes of the book.

    The Name Game Text: Romans 16:1-27 How many of you like to watch the credits at the end of a movie? Wailam gets disgusted with me because I have a tendency to want to stay to the end of the credits in order to find out who performed a particular song used in the soundtrack, to ascertain the general ...read more

     | 19,429 views

    Story of two people with the same problem, one was not seeking an encounter with Jesus and the other was seeking Jesus out. Both were healed after a close encounter with Christ

    Today I want us to look at two different people and two very different encounters with Jesus. As we look at these two people and how they encountered Jesus we should think of how we encounter Jesus. When Jesus is in our midst do we tend to make excuses or do we reach out to Him and make it ...read more

    This is a message examining the sins God hates as listed in the sixth chapter of Proverbs, however the seventh sin listed is called the sin of abomination which is a disgust before God. This message reveals how the first six sins lead to the seventh sin which is an abomination in God's eyes.

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (Proverbs 6:16-19) (16) "These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:" (17) "A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood," (18) "An ...read more

    “Don’t touch that!! Its hot and you’ll burn your hand!” “Don’t eat that! It has been on the ground!” “You better button your jacket up or else you’ll get a cold!” “Look both ways before crossing the street so you don’t get hit by car!” Have you ever told someone these warnings?

    “This message came to my heart concerning the complacency in the Church and how many people allow even the slightest problems to obscure their view of Heaven. Instead, we must see our issues through God's eyes and appreciate our walk with Him."

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (1 Kings 21:2) "Ahab said to Naboth, “Let me have your vineyard to use for a vegetable garden, since it is close to my palace. In exchange I will give you a better vineyard or, if you prefer, I will pay you ...read more

    Contributed by Charles Scott on Jan 11, 2006

     | 2,531 views

    Looking through the eyes of 3 who waited for the first Christmas, we see how the Birth of Jesus Christ meets the "hopes and fears of all the years."

    The Nativity of our Lord: Christmas Day Waiting Expectantly for Christmas Luke 2:22-38 12/25/2005 Christ is Born. Good morning time travelers. At not quite 5am I awoke thinking of another Christmas at another time, another place. Whether you gathered with others at a creche, or visited ...read more

    1 Lose, 1 Win, Your Turn

    Contributed by Oliver Wong on Nov 26, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,623 views

    The sermon takes a look at the cosmic struggle between evil and good - between Satan and Eve (and Adam) (Round 1), Satan and Jesus (Round 2), and finally Round 3...Satan vs. YOU... Special attention is paid on 1 John 2:15-17 concerning Satan's 3 weapons.

    Think of Satan… What comes to your mind immediately? Did an image of an angry-looking red being holding a pitch fork come to your mind? Or maybe you see a plump guy with horns and a fanatical smirk on his face? Whatever it is, we have to ask ourselves: Is our mental picture of Satan fuelled ...read more

    We are called not to speculate on when the Second Coming will occur. We are called to keep our eye on the ball and preach the Gospel to all nations and not to be star gazing

    SERMON: Mk 13:1-37 Advent is the time when we look forward to Jesus’s birth in Bethlehem. So is it not a little strange that the readings for the second Sunday before Advent, should be about Jesus’ second coming – a date in the future rather than to the events leading up his birth in ...read more

    Reconstructive Surgery On The Body Of Christ

    Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Jan 22, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,856 views

    I believe today the church is more divided than at any time since the day of Pentecost when she had her birth. This is a sickness, and the patient is close to terminal!

    If I were allowed to be the one to make the choice of what the church, the entire body of Christ, should have as the main focus, I would choose surgery – reconstructive surgery to put the body back in a healing mode. I believe today the church is more divided than at any time since the day of ...read more

    The Power Of Spiritual Incubation

    Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 19, 2019
     | 18,188 views

    The process of chick development closely resembles that of believers developing into the nature of Christ. 3 similarities: their beginning, the need for brooding, and their maturity empowering them to break out of their limitations.

    THE POWER OF SPIRITUAL INCUBATION Mt. 23:37; Lk. 13:34 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man was at a large Starbucks in Los Angeles. He reached in his coat pockets and pulled out a tiny piano and a medium-size rat. The rat began to play the piano. A crowd gathered, amazed. 2. “That’s nothing,” the ...read more

    Elizabeth was able to see Mary’s situation through the eyes of faith, because she had experienced God’s power herself

    Are you ready for Christmas yet? Two weeks from tomorrow. Maybe the reason that it’s so hard for us to get ready for Christmas is because we have to do it every year. If you only had one Christmas to get ready for in your whole life, would you be ready? Well, it would certainly give you more time, ...read more

    Here is a teaching on the importance of truth and how God DETESTS lies. There’s even an eye opener in regards to the character of God and lies.

    NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH When a witness in a court of law takes the stand, he or she makes a solemn pledge to “tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth” • Not to dilute the truth • Not to expand on the truth • Not to interpret the truth • Just to tell the plain truth At least ...read more

    A good homecoming sermon to illustrate the point that their truly is no place like home as seen through the eyes of the prodigal son in Luke chapter fifteen.
