The Presence Of Jesus

Contributed by Ernie Arnold on Apr 15, 2015

What happens when Jesus is in the midst of His disciples? If we allow Jesus to come into our midst, we shall be filled with peace, joy, His Spirit, forgiveness and invited to the adventures of a life time.

A Time To Remember Series

Contributed by Josh Foster on Mar 3, 2014

Sabbath is a time to remember what we were and why we are no longer what we were! We have a Deliverer! We have a Rescuer! The bondage that we’ve been released from is no less dramatic than the bondage that the Israelites were delivered from in Egypt!

Taking Life & God Seriously

Contributed by Thomas Bartlett on Jan 2, 2021

The nation of Israel watched God provide care for them and release from slavery yet God has to exhort them not to forget Him. How could they forget God after all He'd done? Well, in the same ways we forget Him too.

Jesus Is Stronger

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jan 25, 2021

The story of Jesus casting out a demon in Luke 11 teaches us that Jesus has the power to release us from the power of Satan and indeed from everything that enslaves us. The story also shows us how Jesus deals with reproach and the necessity of positively choosing Jesus.

INTRODUCTION We are continuing our series in Luke. Today, we have the story of Jesus casting out a demon. I suspect that this story might not be the first choice of many preachers. Casting out demons probably seems very alien to many of us. But this story appears in Matthew, Mark and Luke and ...read more

9 Marks Of The Demonic (Revelation 9:1-11, 20-21) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jun 4, 2023

A second look at the 5th trumpet-- the demonic, trans locust horde, released to harm people, and bring them to their senses. Despite this, people still serve demons. By themselves, God's judgments don't do what's needed.

Last week, we worked our way through Revelation 8 and 9, covering six of the seven trumpets. I tried to give you the big picture, and cover a lot of ground. But if I'm honest, I did so as a coward. At one critical point, I got nervous, and decided to teach it in a way that wouldn't be ...read more

The Serenity Of Christ Before Pilate

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Mar 29, 2023

Who is in control at Christ's trial? Pilate wanted to release Jesus but changed his mind. Caiaphas effectively blackmails Pilate into doing his will in getting rid of Jesus. But Jesus remains cool, charm and collective. The crowd who are stirred up in demanding the death of Jesus.

The Serenity of Christ before Pilate I’m sure many of you here this morning have visited Coventry Cathedral and left with some sort of reaction to that Church, dedicated to the Glory of God in the name of St. Michael and All Angels. It is the sort of modern Cathedral building you either love or ...read more

Jesus Questioned About Paying Taxes Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Sep 25, 2023

So knowing that the U.S. government apparently is somewhat reckless in how it spends money, should we still pay our taxes faithfully? Or should we try to get around our taxes?

In the year 2022, according to the CBO, the United States government raised 4.9 trillion dollars in tax income. About half came from individual income taxes. It’s a massive amount of money that we’re talking about, but despite that, the U.S. government is currently 33.1 trillion dollars in debt, ...read more

Sermon # 9 - Learn To Speak Right Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 1, 2024

Do we wait for God’s timing or do we rush ahead of God? What happens when we speak words of doubt and disbelief instead of faith and trust in God? If we can learn to speak right and stay silent when we have to we will be blessed and avoid many pitfalls.

We read in Genesis 17:5, Your name will no longer be Abram, but Abraham, because I am making you the ancestor of many nations.

A Letter To Me

Contributed by James White on Mar 31, 2011

HOW you were born the 1st time makes no difference… OH but WHAT a difference being Born Again makes. It doesn’t change your past, but it releases you from it. It will change your present and make you brand spanking NEW.

Brad Paisley wrote and sings a song which I am borrowing the title from today. “Letter to me” speaks of a desire to send a message to his own past self. It’s a note of encouragement…words to the wise and hope for the future. From the moment of our birth, we begin a lifelong ...read more
