    Today we’re looking at 3 people who were close to going to Heaven, but missed it.: Demas, Lot's Wife, and Cain. They all had been very close to spiritual experiences with God, but didn't end up on God's side.

    CLOSE IS NOT ENOUGH INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: TEETH MARKS 1. A wedding was taking place. The bride’s maids came up the aisle one by one. The flower girl came spreading her flowers. Instead of a ringbearer, the couple opted for a toddler nephew to carry up a Bible, representing the basis of their ...read more

    Through the finished work of Jesus, God has delivered the final verdict on your life: "Not Guilty." You are set free from the penalty and power of sin.

    Sermon Title: Case Closed Series: Unshakable Text: Romans 8:1-4 We live in a world, in a city, that can feel anything but stable. Everything feels like it's in motion, everything can change in a moment. You can have your whole day planned out, but one traffic jam can throw it all into chaos. ...read more

    Should we avenge ourselves?

    An Aye to an Eye for an Eye? Matthew 5:38-42 The Bible indeed teaches “an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth”. In this, Jesus is quoting the Scripture. Seeing that we have established that we have already established in our study on the Sermon on the Mount that what Jesus is ...read more

    When God in His grace reveals Himself to you, respond with gratitude.

    For many people, their experience of worship is like that of Mr. Bean. Take a look (Show Video: Mr. Bean Falling Asleep at Church, www.youtube.com/watch?v=6B1V1PFsyho). Mr. Bean settles into his pew with a smile on his face, anticipating the sermon—but the rest of the congregation blankly stares ...read more

    Real worship happens only when God in His grace reveals Himself to us. Then we respond with gratitude by recognizing His presence, reverencing Him, remembering what He has done, and reserving ourselves completely for him.

    Three-year-old, Mark, accidentally spilled his fruit punch on the floor one day. He decided to clean up the mess himself and dashed to the back porch to get the mop. Suddenly, realizing it was dark outside, he became apprehensive about reaching out the door for the mop. His mother reminded him ...read more

    The Eye Series

    Jesus has just noted that the eye is the body's lamp. A healthy eye perceives light and transmits that information to the body. In a poetic sense, a functioning eye floods the body with light. Light allows a person to see and operate in the world according to what is true.

    The Eye (22) "The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, (23) But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness! Jesus has just commanded His listeners to stop stockpiling treasure on ...read more

    Tough love or tender love. The disciples toiling in rowing, and Jesus unusual response. (He would have passed them by.) When we get close to God we will have sympathy for others, we can also gain insight into the best way to help them.

    God's Eye View Intro: In many video games there is something called, "God's Eye View." What they mean by that is seeing things from a much better perspective and vantage point. For example, if we had a battle scene, there is the perspective of the individual soldier facing enemies that his limited ...read more

    In today’s political climate, many are turned away by all the negativity and are disgusted with everything that is going on. So much so, that they just want to throw up their hands, close their eyes, and hope things will just get better by themselves...

    Over the centuries, there have been many great revivals and moves of God. Yet, before each great move of God, there was always a move to prayer. The Lord will raise up many to pray and seek after Him. Right now men and women of God are being called to begin to pray and seek His face. There is an ...read more

    Think for a moment about what it would be like to be blind. No vision of blue skies, wind-blown trees, loved ones, favorite movie. Close yours eyes for a moment right now. Notice the absence of things. Notice all that is missing.
