Jude gets very descriptive of these false teachers and in verse 12 there are 7 descriptions of these perverse people who sink church fellowships; cause destruction; bring chaos into the church, and corrupt the morals, and the working and the effectiveness of the functioning church.

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Jun 30, 2022

Paul discusses the role of the Law in conviction and confrontation with the Sin of a person. The law of the Lord which is known as the Law of Moses is not evil, not bad, not tyrant but the person who reads it is a corrupted, sinful man, and he is bad in character and nature.

Jesus Disrupts Dead Religion Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Feb 22, 2024

Jesus disrupts the old system of death and sacrifice, bringing in a new system of love and mercy. He challenges corruption and exploitation, and disrupts our lives to remove anything that hinders us from living abundantly in His love.

Imagine you're at your favorite concert, but instead of enjoying the music, people are selling stuff and ripping you off. That's what Jesus walked into at the temple. People were supposed to be worshipping God, but instead, they were making a quick buck. Jesus was not cool with that. He flipped ...read more

Everything You Wanted To Know About Revenge But Never Thought You'd Hear In Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Dec 2, 2004

The desire for revenge and justice is part of being in God’s image. But, because sin corrupts us, and because our lives are intended to center around God, we must defer revenge (and sometimes justice) to Him.

Everything You Wanted to Know About Revenge But Never Thought You’d Hear in Church (Romans 12:14, 17-21) 1. Today’s sermon has little to do with the subject of forgiveness. 2. The Bible is clear that forgiveness is crucial to the Christian life; it is the hallmark of our faith. 3. Not long ...read more

America In Crisis

Contributed by Rick Kallstrom on Jan 26, 2003

AMERICA IN CRISIS The people of Iraq live today under the dictatorship of Saddam Hussein. Iraq is a country where women have no rights, where men are persecuted and tortured if they dare make any anti-government remarks, and where all people live in constant fear. Until recently in ...read more

Lord, Teach Us To Pray

Contributed by Craig Condon on Mar 11, 2015

Prayer is the most powerful weapon for combat against our corrupt, secular world. We can't survive without prayer. The best way to honour God is to pay attention and be careful how we live our lives.

A priest, a minister and a guru were discussing the best positions for prayer while a telephone repairman worked nearby. "Kneeling is definitely the best way to pray," the priest said. "No," the minister said, "I get the best results standing with my hands outstretched to Heaven." "You're both ...read more

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 6, 2024

Numbed by the wickedness around, we can become ignorant of the hurting and suffering people in our world. Jerusalem was grossly corrupt and injustice thrived. The world must learn from this but it is not going so. Injustice and violence are everywhere. Wrath is coming.

God's Definition Of Marriage Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Jan 28, 2018

America doesn't have a homosexual problem; we have a human sexual problem. If you consider yourself a Christian, God expects all of us to practice sexual purity.

INTRODUCTION Today I’m going to talk about “God’s Definition of Marriage.” This is the most popular trending topic today since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that same-sex marriage is legal in all 50 states. However, I’m not just speaking today in reaction to this ruling. Most of you know I teach ...read more

King Making - King Breaking Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 12, 2007

Gideon shunned position but kept power, his son Abimelech had position but not power as both were ruled by the flesh and from the flesh reaped corruption. Learn how we can fall prey to that as Christians and how to avoid it.

Judges 8 and 9 give us a good picture of what happens when we decide to let the flesh rule in our lives instead of God’s Spirit. Galatians 5:16-17 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the ...read more
