    Jesus Was Wrong!

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Mar 28, 2005
    based on 23 ratings
     | 4,070 views

    This is a resurrection Sunday message looking at how the world views Jesus’ death.

    (Started the Service with the first three verses of “Were you there when they crucified my Lord”. Did it very reflective, had the scripture read Luke 23:44-49 then preached the message. After the sermon went into high power resurrection songs, ie My Redeemer lives. I was afraid I’d drop dead ...read more

    Feeling The Burn From The Story

    Contributed by Matthew Morine on Jul 10, 2008

     | 3,669 views

    It is so common, it is so known, that we forget about the transformational power of the story of Christ. It is a sermon of allowing the story to burn again.

    BURNING OF THE HEART THEME: DEEPING FAITH THROUGH A LOVE OF THE STORY. TEXT: LUKE 24:13-33 It was an hour and a half from the center of Dallas-Fort Worth. It was in a small little Texas town. The building was an old school house that was moved to function as a church building. It was my ...read more

    Paul's Witness To The Resurrection Series

     | 14,178 views

    The 4th testimony of Christ’s resurrection listed was that of the apostle Paul himself. He was an unbeliever who was convinced that the imposter Jesus was dead. He radically changed from the worst of unbelievers to the strongest of believers.

    [RESURRECTION REALITIES SERIES] 1 CORINTHIANS 15: 8-11 PAUL’S WITNESS TO THE RESURRECTION [Acts 9:1–8, 17] The first eleven verses of chapter 15 reviews the evidences for Jesus’ resurrection, [a truth the Corinthians already believed (vv. 1, 11)]. For it is on the foundation of the ...read more

    Peace & Fire

    In Luke 12 Jesus asks His disciples if they think He came to bring peace on earth and then - without giving them a chance to respond - He makes; what to me seems like a shocking statement, “No, I tell you, but division.”

     | 12,029 views

    The “unclean spirit” is Satan or his demons. Satan delights in causing uncleanness in persons, places and things. His going out of a man, as presented here, is voluntary, not like his eviction by force as when Christ cast out demons.

    Harmony of the Gospels -AD 28- Capernaum Title: Jesus Answers a Demand for a Sign Matthew 12:38-45, Luke 11:24-26, 29-36 -Matthew- 43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. 44 Then he saith, I will return into my house ...read more

    Persecution - Are You Ready For It?

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jan 9, 2021
     | 3,059 views

    We in America do not have any real experience with religious persecution like we find in other countries. However, over the past decades we have seen reverence for the name of Jesus become mockery. What will we do when proclaiming Jesus becomes outlawed?

    Persecution - Are You Ready For It? Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Psalm 1:1-2 “Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.

    The Watergate Revival Series

     | 11,275 views

    There is an unspoken desire in the body of Christ today to understand what revival is all about even though we may have never experienced it corporately. Israel was in a similar state in the 500's BC. In fact they did not have access to the Word of God ..

    Opening illustration: What would you hear if you could listen to the sounds at your neighbor’s house on Sunday morning? Would it be the sound of boats being prepared for a day of fishing at the lake? Would it be the sound of golf clubs being thrown into the trunk of the car in anticipation of ...read more

    Be Focused On People, Not Property Series

     | 4,251 views

    It is important to note that the church is comprised of people. It is not a building. If we fail to remember this fact, we might make the mistake of directing our energies into preserving property instead of rescuing those who are perishing.

    In Matthew 16:18, we read where Jesus said to Peter, “You are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.” When Jesus stated that He would build His church “on this rock,” He was not referring to the location where they were standing, and He ...read more

    Paul writes a magnificent letter to his beloved church. He gives them plenty of love and inspiriation. His theme is JOY. Jesus first, Others second and ourselves last. The Joy of the Ministry can be a 2nd title.

    Good Vibrations - Part 2 Series

     | 7,142 views

    In order to understand the Spiritual World we need to become like children. Start learning again; overcome offence; and above all things we need the presence of God. We need to put God First and be filled with the Holy Ghost and FIRE!

    I started this message by teaching on how we can "feel" the presence of God. This is something that happens when we receive His Holy Spirit. Being filled or baptized in the Spirit means that we opened ourselves to His presence and when we have full conscience of God's presence we can suddenly ...read more

    Daily Lifestyles Of Full Timers Series

     | 719 views

    The Timetable of Jesus Christ was fully occupied. He had a regular practice of prayer, evangelism, healing, and counselling. However, nothing was robotic, not legalistic. It was his commitment and concerns.

    Text: 2 Corinthians 4:1-18 Theme: “Our Daily Lifestyles”   Today, we will look into “Our Daily Lifestyles” from the Second Corinthians 4. It gives us the missionary endeavours of Paul and his co-workers. This chapter has “Their engagements”, “their encounters”, “their empowerments”. Paul’s ...read more

    What Is Repentance?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 3, 2024
     | 2,536 views

    We are only given a brief interval to repent, so we need to know what repentance is, who needs to repent, and when our chance to repent will expire.

    WHAT IS REPENTANCE? Luke 3:1-3,7-9 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. I heard about a man who smoked cigarettes. He began reading articles on cigarettes and became alarmed by the strong relationship between smoking and lung cancer. 2. He finally confided in a friend; “I’ve been reading so many ...read more
