Sermons on Death Is Defeated:

Facing Death In Christ

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 11, 2021

Why do many Christians fear death? Of course the act itself can be horrifying (such as crucifixion ...). But many fear death no matter what the cause. Should this be normal for followers of Jesus? What do we see in the Bible? How does that compare to what we feel?

Facing Death In Christ Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Job 19:25-27 “I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand on the earth. And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God; I myself will see Him with my own eyes - I, ...read more

I Hate Death

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Dec 2, 2021

An intimate look at sickness, disease, dying, death, and the promises of God

I hate death beyond words to describe. It fosters fear, sadness, hopelessness, loneliness, grief, and suffering. It's brutal. It's ugly. It smells. It hurts. It tears at the heart like a ravenous beast. It has no regrets and no mercy. It's a thief who robs you of those you love with no ...read more

On The Cross: The Death Of Jesus Series

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Dec 7, 2021

Part 1 of a 2 part series on the Death and Burial of Jesus. By integrating the gospels, we can easily see all of the details provided in all four gospels. This message is the crucifixion story in a logical order with nothing added to Scripture and nothing taken away.

Luke 23:26-34 As the chief priests led Jesus away to be crucified, they laid hold of Simon the Cyrenain. Simon, (the father of Alexander and Rufus - Mark 15:21), was coming out of the country. They laid the cross on him, so that he could carry it behind Jesus. A great company of people and women ...read more

The Life And Death Struggles Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 11, 2021

Today we are in a struggle like that between Moses and Balak, or between Jesus and the religious authorities, a battle to the death between God’s people and a pagan secular culture.

Homily for Monday in 3rd Week of Advent Balaam was a prophet for hire. He was a wealthy and respected prophet of Yahweh, but he was not an Israelite. Balak, a king who was in the way of Israel as they moved toward the Promised Land, was nervous about all these people moving across his territory. ...read more

Life After Death

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 1, 2024

Those who have escaped earthly judiciary with their money and influence will meet with the Divine justice of God there. No money, influence or human power will stand up there. No sinner will escape the wrath of God.

There is a life after death. Life after death is more important than life on earth. It is because, even if we live the maximum allotted time, we may live up to 120 years.

From Death To Life

Contributed by Gnana Raj on Sep 4, 2021

Genesis 5 contains a genealogy. As Christians, how can we understand and preach this passage christologically? If Jesus said the Scripture speaks of Him, and this stands as part of the inspired scripture, how can we discern its Christological significance?

INTRODUCTION Greetings to you all in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. It’s a blessing to worship with you and share from God’s word. Few weeks ago, the chaplain contacted me to sign me for preaching. Since he called me, I’ve been thinking about what to preach. It’s around the same ...read more

Faithful Until Death

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 29, 2022

Notice the condition on which this promise is made. The Lord said, if we are faithful unto death, He would give us a CROWN OF LIFE.

He did NOT say, “If you are faithful a few short years I will give thee a Crown of Life”. There are times the devil tells us that as Christians, we are wasting our lives serving the Lord. But I can assure you, based on the Word of God, that we are doing the smartest thing a person can do with our ...read more

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 25, 2021

Jesus said with His tears that He approved of that kind of sorrow. There is a valid place for tears in the Christian life. We need never fear nor be ashamed of the tears of the hopeful.

One of the oldest and most universal of all questions is the one of Job, "If a man die shall he live again?" In the ancient world almost everyone believed that death was a gateway into another world, and so they buried their dead with food and tools to be used when they arrived. This is ...read more
