    Who Did Jesus Come For Series

    Contributed by David Rogers on Feb 12, 2006
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,681 views

    This is a sermon that explains that Jesus did not come save everyone. He saves only those who are willing to follow Him, who are sick and unrighteous.

    Who Did Jesus Come For? Matthew 9:9-12 Prayer Have you ever sat back and looked at all God has done for you. I mean have you ever really taken inventory of the things God has done for us so that we may live on earth? The first thing we would need to put down is that He created the Earth ...read more

    Those Feet Jesus Washed

    Contributed by Bradley Berglund on Apr 6, 2013
     | 6,577 views

    In spite of knowing what these disciples would do within hours, Jesus washed their feet and commanded them to follow His example: no excuse is acceptable.

    This story is significant because of its timing – Jesus was preparing for Calvary * Hours before His betrayal – * He was leaving those whom He loved dearly * Critical messages – often last minute orders WHAT IS FOOT WASHING? A Cultural Necessity: * Necessary because of the foot ...read more

    The Sayings Of Jesus Part 1 Series

    Contributed by Martin Holland on Nov 20, 2013
     | 4,185 views

    Jesus perhaps in His longest public speaking unto those who were following Him speaks concerning what we call the "Beatitudes".

    The Sayings of Jesus Part 1 Matthew 5:1-12 As we have considered the walk of Jesus carefully learning how we should walk in this present world. We must also consider His sayings and the Sermon on the Mount in which we find the Beatitudes is the key to proper Christian living. Mention: Matt. 4:17 ...read more

    Jesus Victory Over Temptation

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Mar 10, 2025
     | 384 views

    This message looks at the three temptations Jesus faced, why they truly were temptations, and how he overcame them, giving us a path to follow.

    Good Morning. How long can you play around with temptations without consequences? Kind of like asking how far over edge of the cliff can I safely lean. Sadly, this year has seen stories about church pastors who have fallen off that cliff and not only destroyed their marriages, but their churches, ...read more

    How does Jesus respond when someone really seeks Him? He follows through--He makes sure the seeker finds Him!

    Over nearly 40 years as a pastor, one of the things I've learned is that when you sign up to be a pastor, you also sign up to be a point man in some very challenging situations. One of the challenging situations I've often been asked to take over has been when a beloved or in some cases, ...read more

     | 1,432 views

    Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice to reconcile us with God. Our response should be one of repentance, faith, and a life dedicated to following Jesus' teachings.

    I Will Not Give To God Anything That Costs Me Nothing Series

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Oct 2, 2016
    based on 2 ratings
     | 106,712 views

    David said: "I won’t make an offering to God that doesn’t cost me something." What a great passage on demonstration of faith in God. Listen! To give without sacrifice is not to give at all. Ornan and David sacrificed but I believe Ornan sacrificed more.

    DAVID SERIES: A MAN AFTER GOD'S OWN HEART - PART 18: I WILL NOT GIVE TO GOD ANYTHING THAT COSTS ME NOTHING! 2 Samuel 24:1-25 / 1 Chronicles 21: 13 David said to Gad, “I am in deep distress.

     | 6,691 views

    The followers of Jesus are called to go to the world with the hope of Jesus Christ.

    Going Out To Bring Them In Mark 1:14-20 Along time ago in a land far away there was a church. The church had been founded by a handful of men and women who wanted nothing more out of life than to make a difference in their community for the Kingdom of God. They had read the Word of God and been ...read more

    To demonstrate Jesus’ care for us and desire that we follow him.

    With the DaVinci Code book and now the movie coming out soon, there have been people, even Christians, calling into question, who the real Jesus is? Two weeks ago, we began looking at the Jesus’ self declarations in the book of John, Jesus’ “I AM” statements. Jesus telling us who he claimed ...read more

    Seeking Jesus Away From The Glare Of Others: Nicodemus And Jesus

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on May 25, 2024
     | 883 views

    Nicodemus comes to Jesus under the cloak of evening to ask some very important questions that lead to life. His questions mirror many of our own .

    Today’s passage is a remarkable dialogue between our Lord Jesus and a key leader among the religious higher-ups, who, generally speaking, were very hostile to Jesus. Nicodemus had a different response though to Jesus, he had a different spirit about him. He took his role of spiritual leadership ...read more

     | 6,079 views

    Is it any wonder that the world finds it hard to follow Jesus? Often The only Jesus they are ever presented is hard, harsh and unloving. We are Jesus to the world; our actions speak louder than fifty street preachers. Jesus came down!

    JESUS CAME DOWN IAN JOHNSON www.papelim.org.nz “For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.” – 2 Corinthians 8:9 (NIV) What does that mean, “he became poor”? It means that he gave ...read more

    Jesus The Man-Hunter

    Contributed by Martin Ellgar on Nov 1, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,217 views

    A perspective on Mark 1: 29-39 When the word goes out that someone is missing, will you follow Jesus in the manhunt? Or, do you remain where you are? If you do the later, is it because you are still lost?

    Mark 1: 29-39 JESUS THE MAN-HUNTER Theme: God seeks the lost. All of God’s creation is adversely affected by human sin. This is easily seen when an oil spill in the ocean traps various sea life and threatens its existence. A poorly maintained ship can leak engine oil into the water as it ...read more
