    The Light Of Hope Series

    Contributed by Lynn Malone on Dec 5, 2018
     | 7,262 views

    Lights and Christmas go together like peas and carrots. This message series reflects on the four candles of the Advent wreath. We begin with the hope candle.

    All the Pretty Lights: The Light of Hope Luke 2: 1 – 5 You just can’t do Christmas without lights! They’re my favorite Christmas tradition. There’s much I find about Christmas challenging—not the holiday itself, but all the surrounding ado. I’d just as soon we skip most of the Christmas ...read more

    A focus on salt as a distinctive flavour and a preserving agent as a metaphor for Christian distinctiveness in a pluralistic world.

    Intro: We are taught by Jesus in this passage that we are to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world. But what do these words mean? It is important that we understand our purpose in this world and so we should endeavour to understand these metaphors that Jesus uses, that we might ...read more

    The word “impossible” means nothing to God! The birth of a baby born to a virgin was a miracle! The Lord can also miraculously bring light to a dark situation. “Never doubt in the dark, what God spoke while you were in the light.”

    I’ve entitled our message this morning, “Nothing Is Impossible,” as we briefly touch on the account of how baby Jesus was born to the Virgin Mary. I would like to begin with some inspirational quotes and illustrations; and I’ll start by sharing one entitled “Impossible Takes Longer.” Charles F. ...read more

    Salt & Light

    1. Jesus was telling us not to live for the kingdom of the world, but the Kingdom of God. 2. Jesus is saying that we play an important role in the life of the world as salt and light. 3. Jesus was talking about a new way of obedience.

    It is no accident that Jesus talked about us being salt and light immediately after he spoke the Beatitudes. It is in learning how to think as Jesus thought and live as he lived in submissions to God, that we become agents of healing and light in the world. It is when we live as people who do not ...read more

    Secondary Draft Also He said to them, "Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Is it not to be set on a lampstand? For there is nothing hidden which will not be revealed, nor has anything been kept secret but that it should come to light. If anyone has ears to hear, let him ...read more

    If you want to be holy and whole, just like our Heavenly Father, then walk in love and walk in the light of Christ.

    Six-year-old little Jenny complained to her mother of a tummy ache. “That’s because your tummy is empty,” her mother replied. “You’d feel better if there were something in it.” That evening, their pastor stopped for a visit and later commented that his head had ...read more

    Light Of The Gospel

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Oct 23, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,827 views

    The message of the gospel defeats Satan. We don’t preach ‘your best life now.’ We preach Christ crucified – the only way to salvation. The Power of the gospel exposes, veils and reveals Christ crucified.

    Opening illustration: Some things just don’t seem to fit in our modern 21st century. A tribe of headhunters is one of them. Yet there is one such group of people whose story is worth telling. A tribe living high in the Philippine mountains, a 3-day’s walk from the nearest city, has ...read more

    We are to act as a preservative, preventing the world from going bad. We should have a positive influence on those around us. Furthermore, that is most likely what Jesus had in mind here.

    Salt, Light, and Law in the Sermon on the Mount Matthew 5:13-16, NIV 13 "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?
