Doing Your Duty With A Little Faith

Contributed by Richard L. Brown on May 23, 2022

This is a lesson about using the gifts that God has already given us instead of wishing our lives away wanting what God has not ordained. It features the problem that the first disciples were having and Jesus' answer to them when they asked for more faith.

Doing Your Duty with a Little Faith Luke 17: 5-10, 2 Timothy 1:3-12 The Apostles were with Jesus daily. They saw miracles that would make their hearts stand still and yet they wanted more faith. What more could Jesus possibly give them? The answer is, he doesn’t give them anything more. ...read more

An Act Of Obedience Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 2, 2021

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of heaven." I cannot imagine any child who loves Jesus, and who desires to be baptized in obedience to Him, being to young.

Baptism and the Lord's Supper are two of the simplest things we do as Christians. But the fact is, these two simple acts of obedience to Christ have created a great deal of controversy in the Christian world. Every aspect of baptism is a major issue on which Christians differ. THE TIMING OF ...read more

Freedom

Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 20, 2022

Real freedom in Christ occurs when we live in God's Spirit and are useful in influencing other's lives for God. Jesus Himself showed us what freedom is. Today the word freedom has been misunderstood to mean license to sin.

FREEDOM Gal. 5:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Sometimes we take our freedoms too far. Like evry other president, William Howard Taft had to endure his share of abuse. One night at the dinner table, his youngest son made a disrespectful remark to him. There was a sudden hush. 2. “Well,” said ...read more

Teachings Of Titus #3

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

In the previous sermon in this series, in Titus 1:10-16, Paul dealt with the false teachers, and told Titus that their mouths must be stopped.

Why? Because he said the words they were preaching were damnable words that were “Subverting whole households” to go astray. One of the sad things about those who fall into false religions is that they aggressively do everything they can to convert their complete families. This is typical of the ...read more

The Simple Life Style

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021

Each individual Christian needs to keep asking themselves, how can I simplify my life, not for the sake of simplicity, but for the sake of the kingdom of God.

I've always loved the Cinderella story, and have read it to my granddaughter, and listened to it on record many times. It is a story that fits so well in our culture. From rags to riches is the American dream come true. The poor little servant girl escapes from the wash water to live in ...read more

Loved But Lost Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 28, 2021

This almost perfect moral young man appeared to be as spiritually healthy as one could possibly be, but Jesus saw something in him that called for radical surgery if he was to ever find eternal life.

This is the story of the rich young ruler who, unlike the rich old ruler, Nicodemus, did not come to Jesus by night, but came to Him publicly in the daytime. All three of the synoptic Gospels tell the story, and each add something extra to the total picture. Matthew tells us he was young. Luke ...read more

Feeding On The Bread Of Life

Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 10, 2021

We take a detailed look at how to "feed" on Christ. We start with 5 wonderful things about Jesus, then see the necessity of daily feeding on Him, and then observe the two principle ways to do this.

FEEDING ON THE BREAD OF LIFE JOHN 6:51-58 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: ALL YOU CAN EAT PLACES 1. I think that one of the wisest decisions ever made in the food industry was the idea of the “All You Can Eat Buffet.” Many restaurants only offer this option and it has proven to be very successful. 2. ...read more

Into The Colosseum

Contributed by Crossroads Church on Oct 13, 2022

God requires complete surrender.

Cursed be the cheat who has a male in his flock, and vows it, and yet sacrifices to the Lord what is blemished. For I am a great King, says the Lord of hosts, and my name will be feared among the nations. Malachi 1:14 ESV Back in the Old Testament days, there were all kinds of sacrifices that were ...read more

Christmas Makes For Pure Christians Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 15, 2021

The reality of Christmas is that God’s grace does not produce Christians who are cavalier about sin. My message in three words is simple: Don’t drift downstream.

It just seems the holidays are meant for laziness. The week between Christmas Day and New Year’s Day is meant for sleeping in and for resting. Yet, I want to challenge your message during this “week of rest” - The reality of Christmas is that God’s grace does not produce Christians who are ...read more

Purpose Of Election Of Abraham Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Jun 17, 2021

No Fear Of Pestilence Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 18, 2021

When we are pounded by a pestilence it usually throws normal life out of gear and turn our lives upside down. A few months ago if we went out on the street with a face mask, people would stare at us curiously, but strangely if we were to go out without wearing one today...

Psalm 91 - Study 17 - No Fear of Pestilence We read in Psalm 91:6,“You will have no fear of diseases that come in the dark or terrible suffering that comes at noon.” (ERV) We have been studying Psalm 91 in depth and the overriding theme of this Psalm, is that the Lord protects His children from ...read more

Searching For Jesus

Contributed by Mathew Philip on Jan 23, 2021

The story of Joseph and Mary searching for Jesus is an invitation to consider where your are in your journey of faith. If your relationship with God has grown stale, the good news is that Jesus is right where he is supposed to be, just waiting for you to find him.

When Jesus was 12 years old, his parents went to Jerusalem as they did every year at the feast of the Passover. When the feast was ended, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. His parents did not know it, but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day's ...read more

Happy New Year…maybe!

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 23, 2022

I want to wish each of you a HAPPY NEW YEAR! But my wishing you a HAPPY NEW YEAR is not a gurantee that you will have one.

What will guarantee you a HAPPY NEW YEAR is the things I want to share with you from God’s Word.

Life Like Today Is The Day Series

Contributed by Jeffery Anselmi on Oct 20, 2023

It is an error to refuse to live daily life wisely because Jesus is coming back.

INTRODUCTION • Christians have to learn to live in necessary tension. • We are citizens of heaven, and yet we live on earth. • We are ready for and anticipating Christ’s return, yet we also work, eat, sleep, play, and have families. • This tension requires balance. • We have to live daily life ...read more
