    This Ash Wednesday sermon uses a scene from "Fight Club" as its major illustration - it attempts to show that Christ doesn’t just give us a second chance, but that He puts us to death (while taking on our death) in Baptism and give us the empty tomb.

    In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Three In One who makes our lives more beautiful than what they could ever be on their own. Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, About ten years ago, a movie came out that just about everyone saw. It was called “Fight ...read more

    The nation of Israel was like many of us, kind of stuck. But there are ways we can get out of this rut, and move on to greater effectiveness.

    Passage: 1 Samuel 7:2-11 Intro: It’s amazing when an event that took place more than 3000 years ago is so relevant to us. 1. for over 3 centuries, the people of Israel had turned their backs on God. 2. they had suffered terribly, but hadn’t put their condition together with their behavior. 3. ...read more

    The ancient practices of worship when priests would enter the holy of holies to meet with God required them to be found spotless...this sermon relates the tabernacle and tent of meeting to today’s forms of worship.

    (Intro Video-ark of the covenant-Holy of Holies) Ok, Some of you are probably wondering how Noah’s ark fit inside this small box. Did they shrink it? What’s up with that? So, I have to clear up some of your confusion. The ark of the covenant and Noah’s ark are two different things. Noah’s ...read more

    Faith Without Works Is Dead

    Salvation is only through faith and the redeeming work and grace of God. However, I do say that if our faith is not accompanied by works, then we can’t say that we have a genuine faith.

    I want to start today’s service with a joke. There was this very rich man who lived in the United States, who had heard of a man that lived in France that was very famous for walking the tightrope. According to what he had heard, the Frenchman had the reputation of walking the tightrope at ...read more

    The ones who wanted Him dead were afraid that He was alive, and the ones who wanted Him alive assumed He was dead! But no one was neutral about Jesus. ’Cross Examination’ style investigation of the facts of the case. Link to text, audio/video, PowerPoint.

    Wanted: Dead AND Alive John 20:31 http://gbcdecatur.org/sermons/Wanted.html No one was neutral that day about Jesus. They either wanted Him to be dead or to be alive.

    New Life For A Dead Man

    based on 6 ratings
     | 2,487 views

    This sermon deals with the born again experience which seems to have lost its place among much of the sermons of our day. Because there seems to be such a need for the "help" type of preaching for the troubled lives of church attenders.

    Scripture: John 3:1 – Title: “NEW LIFE FOR A DEAD MAN” Introduction: The title of the message may sound a little shocking, but it couldn’t be truer. In 2:23 we are told that the people’s faith had been awakened by the miracles they saw Jesus perform. In the last few verses of chapter 2 we are ...read more

    Faith is a key doctrine in the life of a Christian. The sinner is saved through faith (Eph. 2:8-9), then the believer must walk by faith (2 Cor. 5:7). Without faith it is impossible to please God (Heb. 11:6); and whatever we do apart from faith is sin (

    I See Dead People Illustration: The Sixth Sense 14What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? 15Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. 16If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but ...read more

    Although Christians "walk by faith and not by sight," doesn't mean that faith is blind. Our faith in God is based upon irrefutable evidences substantiated by science.

    GOD’S NOT DEAD: IS FAITH BLIND? A. What sets a believer apart from a non-believer is our FAITH. 1. Hebrews 11:6- “Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek ...read more

    Jesus was unlike any other so-called god or person in history because He did not stay dead – Jesus God in flesh died! – But death did not consume Him or contain Him. He rose up from it in power – WHY? - So we could also be set free from death!
