    God's Own Among God's Strays

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 13, 2008
     | 3,213 views

    For the anniversary of the Lai Baptist Church of Gaithersburg, a Burmese congregation. You came as strangers, but God has made you His own. Now we American Christians, who have strayed from what we once were, need your passion among us.

    Sometimes people of differing cultures fail to understand one another. Sometimes people with differing backgrounds cannot grasp what others are all about. So they end up hurting one another, when, really, they need one another. If you do not understand your neighbor, and if your neighbor is ...read more

    Let Us Not Grow Weary Of Doing Good

    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 7, 2010

    This is how we live as God’s people. 1.) We help restore those caught in sin. 2.) We help carry one another’s burdens. 3.) We support our pastor and the work of this congregation. 4.) We do what is good.

    Intro Why do we as a people want to support public schools, various health programs, water and sewer services, and Social Security? You might be thinking, “Well, it’s because I have to pay taxes.” Or on a day like today, July 4th, you might say that you are doing your patriotic duty as an ...read more

    Hiding In The Church House Unnoticed Series

    We tackle the group that Jesus refers to in the Sermon on the Mount as wolves in sheep's clothing. These are the one who work their way into the church congregation, get places of authority and then start sharing lies or half-truth about God or His Word for the purpose of deceiving you.

    Introduction: Today, we are going to look at the final group of players whose purpose is to deceive you and me as we approach the end times. In previous weeks, we looked at the scoffer who gets the Christian to question God. And then we saw last week that Satan uses lawlessness to his advantage to ...read more

    Why I Don't Have A "Vision" Or "5 Year Plan" For Our Church

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jun 13, 2018
     | 4,733 views

    This is an abbreviated sermon used after my annual pastor's report to the congregation explaining why we do not have a written "business plan" for church growth. Instead it lays out the 3 foundational steps the Lord has put in my heart as I serve here.

    If you would, please stand as we say together our memory Scripture for this quarter: Romans 12:4-5 “Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.” ...read more

    Delivered 30Jul22 Tree of Life Messianic Congregation. The indictment delivered by Jeremiah to Judah had two charges. Judah has abandoned the source of living water and dug broken cisterns. We explore the misconception of who is the Living Water and what is a broken cistern.

    Feeling Small, Walking Tall Series

     | 5,437 views

    Small congregations might feel ineffective at reaching people, but big things come in small packages. Both the parable of "the mustard seed" and "the yeast" show how small, seemingly insignificant things can make a huge impact.

    The passage of Scripture that we will view tonight contains two short parables – “The Mustard Seed” and “The Yeast.” I have entitled our sermon “Feeling Small, Walking Tall,” and the passage that we’ll be studying provides a great opportunity for sharing a motivational message. You are probably ...read more

     | 618 views

    Holiness is not limited to our actions but is also reflected in our words. Communication is a powerful tool that can build up or tear down. As believers, we are called to ensure that our words align with God’s standards of righteousness.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Colossians 4:6 Supporting Texts: Ephesians 4:29, Proverbs 18:21, Matthew 12:36-37, James 3:5-10 INTRODUCTION: Holiness is not limited to our actions but is also reflected in our words.

    Holiness In Our Thoughts Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jan 26, 2025
     | 581 views

    Holiness is not only about our actions but also about our thoughts. Our minds are the battleground where many spiritual victories or defeats are decided. The Bible calls us to bring every thought into captivity and make it obedient to Christ.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Philippians 4:8 Supporting Texts: 2 Corinthians 10:5, Matthew 5:28, Romans 12:2, Isaiah 26:3 INTRODUCTION: Holiness is not only about our actions but also about our thoughts.

    In this sixth beatitude, we must understand the standard Jesus is setting with the with the phrase "pure in heart.". If we set the standard too low, we fail to enter into the fullness of the blessing. If we set it too high we forsake the pursuit as futile.

    Intro We are studying the Beatitudes with an interest in how to position ourselves for revival. What attitudes of heart are conducive to experiencing more of God’s grace and participating in what he is doing. The Beatitudes provide insight for participating in the kingdom of God because this is the ...read more

    What is a peacemaker? Of course there are a variety of answers but in this sermon we will attempt to define what the most likely meaning of the word is in Matthew 5:9. May the Lord help us!

    Blessed Are The Peacemakers Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:6-8 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall ...read more

    Superheroes have captured Americans’ imagination for a long time. We all know the saying, “It’s a bird, it’s a plane, no, it’s Superman!” It’s not an angel coming. It’s not a prophet coming. It’s the Lord Himself coming. “It’s a prophet. It’s an angel. No, it’s the Lord.”

    I invite you to find the book of Malachi with me if you will [page 954 in your pew Bibles]. Today’s Scripture You have wearied the LORD with your words. But you say, “How have we wearied him?” By saying, “Everyone who does evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delights in them.” Or by ...read more
