    Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 11, 2006
    based on 27 ratings
     | 43,749 views

    The Lord responds to those who cry out to him for help. We must admit God is our only source of help; without it we are sunk.

    INTRODUCTION This is the fourth message in the series “No, that’s NOT in the Bible!” We’re examining ten popular statements people think are in the Bible, but they aren’t found in scripture. There are millions of Bibles in America, yet there is an alarming level of biblical ignorance. George Barna ...read more

  • God Won’t Put More On You Than You Can Bear Series

    Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 11, 2006
    based on 45 ratings
     | 66,531 views

    This misquote is usually spoken out of kindness, but it can cause great confusion and guilt. God WILL sometimes allow you to suffer more than you can bear--but that’s okay, because His grace is sufficient!

    INTRODUCTION The phrase “God helps those who help themselves” is often uttered with a harsh tone of condescension, but not so with the statement, “God won’t put more on you than you can bear.”1 These words are usually spoken out of deep concern and compassion. There is no criticism implied in this ...read more

  • To Err Is Human; To Forgive Divine Series

    Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 11, 2006
    based on 45 ratings
     | 41,729 views

    When you hold onto the sins and shortcomings of others, it hurts you. Forgiveness can release you of that pain. To err IS human; but to forgive FEELS divine!

    INTRODUCTION In the series entitled “No, that’s NOT in the Bible” we discover some of these pseudo-scriptures actually contradict the Bible. For instance, believing the adage “God helps those who help themselves” can hinder a person from seeking God’s help. The aphorism “God won’t put more on you ...read more

  • When God Shuts One Door, He Opens Another Series

    Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 11, 2006
    based on 47 ratings
     | 189,543 views

    Sometimes our disappointments in life can become God’s appointments, so don’t let closed doors bother you. The things we think of as failures and problems can often end up being blessings in disguise.

    INTRODUCTION It seems doors of opportunity open and close before us in life. Is it God opening and closing these doors? For many years I’ve heard the saying, “When God shuts one door, He opens another!” Well, no, those exact words are not found in the Bible anywhere. However, of all the phrases ...read more

  • God Moves In Mysterious Ways Series

    Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 11, 2006
    based on 39 ratings
     | 54,118 views

    Many people think God’s ways are so mysterious, they are beyond our understanding. Perhaps the phrase “God moves in mysterious ways” was coined because in the Bible, God often did the UNEXPECTED. God seldom acts or moves the way we think He should.

    INTRODUCTION Over the past few weeks we’ve been studying popular sayings people think are in the Bible–but they aren’t. We’ve already discussed several pseudo-scriptures including, “God helps those who help themselves” and “God won’t put more on you than you can bear.” Today, we are focusing on ...read more

  • Let Your Conscience Be Your Guide Series

    Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 11, 2006
    based on 25 ratings
     | 31,840 views

    If you could spend your entire life listening to and obeying your God-given conscience, you could live a perfect life. But the Bible says we have ALL sinned and we fall short of the glory of God. All of us end up with a messed-up conscience.

    INTRODUCTION This is the penultimate message in this series on spurious Bible verses. Next week, we’ll consider the final adage, “To Thine Own Self Be True.” I encourage you to investigate this week and see if you can find the true source of that saying. A helicopter pilot flying over Seattle got ...read more

  • To Thine Own Self Be True Series

    based on 22 ratings
     | 55,254 views

    The dangerous implications of taking “To thine own self be true” literally.

    INTRODUCTION This is the final message in the series, “No, that’s NOT in the Bible.” Since I’ve started this series, I’ve encountered several other “sayings” often mistakenly quoted as coming from the Bible. Here are some other sayings that aren’t in the Bible: Charity begins at home; This too ...read more

  • John The Baptist (Luke 3:1-18)

    Contributed by David Smith on Nov 12, 2007
    based on 9 ratings
     | 11,174 views

    My favourite sermon. JB is always the herald of Christmas for me - a guy with an attitude that is a long way from the fat elf in his red plush suit! ...

    The season of Christmas is upon us! At what point did this realisation hit you? * When you saw decorations going up in shopping centres - something which always seems to happen way to early (ie. October)? * When your family first rang you to organise a Christmas luncheon or dinner, which never ...read more

  • The Pharisee & The Tax-Collector (Luke 18:9-14 )

    Contributed by David Smith on Nov 12, 2007
    based on 16 ratings
     | 43,081 views

    A Pharisee and a tax-collector bump into eachother at the temple. This looks like a sitcom! ...

    “Jesus told them another joke”, we are told, “and He told this one to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and looked down on others.’ Now, I suspect that your translation probably says ‘parable’ rather than ‘joke’, but I think ‘joke’ is actually a very good translation. We ...read more

  • Easter Day (Matthew 28:1-7 )

    Contributed by David Smith on Nov 12, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,856 views

    The disciples look for the body of Jesus, but He is not there! He has already gone on ahead of them somewhere, just as He continues to keep moving beyond our reach!...

    When I went to seminary - to Moore College in Newtown - there was a resident chapel there known as the Cash Chapel (named after the guy who donated it, not after how he paid for it). Now when people set up a church building or a chapel, they tend to design it with the communion table at the centre, ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 22,514 views

    Jesus said that the Kingdom of God is like a great big party!!! But this is a party with a twist to it. ...

    Once more Jesus spoke to them in parables, saying: "The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who gave a wedding banquet for his son. He sent his slaves to call those who had been invited to the wedding banquet, but they would not come. Again he sent other slaves, saying, ’Tell those who have ...read more

  • Jesus And Sinners Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Nov 13, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,483 views

    If we are going to be disciples of Jesus then we must adopt His attitude toward sinners, and follow His example in reaching out to the lost.

    Introduction: A. I think that most of us know that God loves sinners and wants them to be saved. 1. The Apostle Paul wrote, “This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 15,036 views

    A man had two sons, and I bet he wished he’d had more daughters! ...

    Jesus said "What do you think? A man had two sons; he went to the first and said, ’Son, go and work in the vineyard today.’ He answered, ’I will not’; but later he changed his mind and went. The father went to the second and said the same; and he answered, ’I go, sir’; but he did not go. Which of ...read more
