    At times, All of Us Project A Stubborn Opposition, even a Religious Resistance, to Authentic Authority and Legitimate Leadership. This messgae deals with the Arrogance of High-Mindedness.

    The premise I have been pursuing these precious Sundays in the preaching moment is simply this: At times, All of Us Project A Stubborn Opposition, even a Religious Resistance, to Authentic Authority and Legitimate Leadership.

    Why did the soldiers place a crown of thorns on the head of Jesus? Could there be something more significant to it than we realize?

    I am amazed at many of the details of the story of Jesus’ trials, His suffering, abuse, and mockery, and how that there is significance to each event, to each episode. This morning we took a graphic look at the torture He suffered in being scourged or flogged. The ripping apart of His flesh, the ...read more

    Stand along with the Roman Officer at the Cross of Christ and allow the Blood of Jesus to cleanse your sinfulness.

    IT IS SAFE TO SAY THAT ALL OF US MUST DEAL WITH SIN ON A DAILY BASIS. WHAT PROBABLY SCARES US THE MOST IS NOT THAT WE CONFRONT AND DEAL WITH THE SINS OF THE WORLD, BUT HAVE TO CONTEND WITH THOSE DARK SINS THAT LOITER IN THE DEEP RECESSES OF OUR HEARTS. PSALM 36:1, “SIN LURKS DEEP IN THE HEARTS OF ...read more

    based on 10 ratings
     | 3,604 views

    We are admonished in God’s word to put away envy. Let us study how envy can destroy our lives if we do not take authority in Christ to put it away.

    ENVY (Heb. qin’â; Gk. phthonos). (1) That discontented feeling that arises in the selfish heart in view of the superiority of another (real or imagined), nearly tantamount to jealousy (Psalm 37:1; Psalm 73:3; Proverbs 24:1, 19; Phil. 1:15; etc.). (2) That malignant passion that sees in another ...read more

    The level of commitment you see in new members depends on how much time, prayer and intentional effort you put into their growth.

    INTRODUCTION: NEED: To Develop a plan to turn attenders into members (for a similar perspective see Warren, Purpose Driven Church, Chapter 17) If our goal is to get people to come down that isle and tell us they will join this church, our plan can be rather simple. 1.

    Thank God Jesus Didn't Take His Own Advice

    Contributed by Robert Eggers on Sep 18, 2004
    based on 10 ratings
     | 3,692 views

    Luke 14:25-33 is usually seen as Jesus’ advice to his disciples to be committed to him above all. But Jesus didn’t follow that advice and we thank God he didn’t because he went way beyond human logic and calculation to become our Savior and Lord.

    Luke 14:25-33 Thank God Jesus Didn’t Follow His Own Advise Jesus said, “Anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple. "Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Will he not first sit down and estimate the cost to see if he has enough money to complete it? For if he ...read more

     | 14,220 views

    How does the Bible define marriage? Why did God institute marriage in the first place? It must be clear from the outset that our final authoritative standard for our lives is the Word of God. God’s standards do not change.

    God hates evil and has every right to be angry with our sin, this sermon shows what God wants to do rather than punish that sin.

    Part of the High Priestly prayer of the Lord Jesus Christ was that God’s glory might be in them. What our Lord prayed for is staggering.

    A story is told of a boy who was drawing a picture. His teacher asked what he was drawing. “I’m drawing a picture of Jesus, miss,” he replied. “But, Johnny, we don’t know what Jesus looked like.” Johnny paused for a moment, perked up, and said, “but they will when I’ve finished” We laugh at that ...read more

    A consideration of the majesty of God as declared by David in Psalm 8.

    As one reads this psalm, he notices that the first and last verses are exactly the same. For this reason, many Bible scholars refer to psalms like this one as “envelope Psalms.” The psalmist makes a declaration, then proceeds to justify it. Having done so, he then concludes by making the same ...read more
