    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Jan 27, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,940 views

    Satan doesn’t want you to think about spiritual things. Rather, he only wants us to dwell on our own selfish desires. Avoid the temptation to delay any thoughts of spiritual self-examination, and make it a priority to encourage others for self-examination

    Opening illustration: During any war, the enemy’s strategy is to conceal/hide some important information from the adversary so that they will not be successful in their endeavor.

  • Fifth Sunday Of Lent, Year B--I Tried But It Died: Grain Of Wheat

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Feb 15, 2024
     | 1,379 views

    A Christian is obliged to let go, to put himself into hands that are not his own of letting oneself go into the hands of God.

    Wheat is associated with being sewn in the ground, buried, geminating and then springing up for bread to feed multitudes. These are all symbols of Christ’s passion, death, resurrection, and communion with his Body, the Church with Jesus, saved in his Sacrifice at Calvary. The seed has to be buried ...read more

    Life does not begin until after the death of self. To be honest, I believe the Bible teaches that that’s when life really begins.

    Contributed by Matthew Stoll on Apr 12, 2007
    based on 7 ratings
     | 11,429 views

    Our faith centers upon the fact of the resurrection. Because Jesus has risen from the dead we have victory over sin (past, present, and future) and death.

    1. What if Jesus did not rise from the dead? I remember back when I was in seminary I took a philosophy class, and the professor posed a hypothetical situation, he said, “hypothetically speaking, what if someone found the bones of Jesus, and could prove it was his bones beyond a shadow of a ...read more

    Performance-based religion is a dead-end. We’re faced with a choice: -Slavery or freedom; -Righteousness by keeping the law, or righteousness by faith in God’s promises.

    Introduction: A man asked Jesus how to get to Heaven. In typical Jewish fashion, Jesus answered the question with a question: “What do you think?” The man suggested, “By keeping the law,” and Jesus said (with a smile), “Fine, do that and you’ll make it!” ...read more

    This sermon is designed to guide the members of the congregation to deny oneself, to take up ones cross, and to follow Jesus.

    There are tremendous lessons in our Holy Scripture.
