    based on 25 ratings
     | 5,651 views

    Sin is real. So is salvation. But we can’t really understand the joy of salvation until we understand the depths of sin from which we have been saved.

    We Have a Problem Called Pride Luke 18:10-13 February 6, 2005 In 1994, I was the Annual Conference Secretary of Global Ministries. It was in that capacity that I joined a survey team to Louisiana in the wake of Hurricane Andrew. Three of us went down to determine how best our Annual Conference ...read more

    Contributed by Scott Carmer on Feb 9, 2005
    based on 16 ratings
     | 6,403 views

    Envy is an emotion that refuses to recognize the goodness of God. Envy is telling God that God could have done a better job with us.

    Envy is Not Pretty I Samuel 18:6-9 February 9, 2005 Ash Wednesday I love music. All kinds of music. If you look through my CD collection, you will find Contemporary Christian, Country, Classic Rock, Opera, Broadway Show Tunes, and Classical.

    Contributed by Scott Carmer on Feb 14, 2005
    based on 36 ratings
     | 5,544 views

    There is a difference between the righteous anger Jesus felt at times and the piddling little things that make us angry. Anger can be an impediment which stands in the way of our enjoyment of God.

    Don’t Let Anger Rattle Around in Your Soul James 1:19-21 February 13, 2005 One of the things that I regret about the way I reared my children is that I think I raised my voice too often. As I reflect back, I understand now that on those occasions when I had reached the limit of my patience with ...read more

    based on 11 ratings
     | 6,048 views

    There is a big difference between taking a Sabbath and being lazy. Lazyness separates us from our own potential, from the love of others, and from the grace of God.

    Are You a Lazybones? Proverbs 6:6-11 February 20, 2005 Twenty three years ago, I was one of seventeen men and women who stood before the Annual Conference and was ordained into the United Methodist ministry.

    based on 8 ratings
     | 5,466 views

    Avarise, or greed, is different than coveteousness. Covetousness is a desire for things we don’t have. Avarice is a hoarding of things we have but don’t need.

    You Really Can¡¦t Take It With You Luke 12:15-21 February 27, 2005 We are in the midst of our sermon series on the seven deadly sins, and have come to avarice. It is something that we have to consider. Avarice is a word that we don¡¦t use all that often, but it means a passion for acquiring and ...read more

    Lust At First Sight Series

    Contributed by Scott Carmer on Mar 7, 2005
    based on 15 ratings
     | 6,999 views

    Lust is more than sex. It is about power. It is about the overwhelming desire for power. Sex was not the main issue in David’s sin with Bathsheba. It was the lust for power and control.

    Lust at First Sight II Samuel 11:2-5 March 6, 2005 This fellow had a dream in which he was transported to heaven. In his vision, St. Peter was showing him around the place when the guy noticed that there were clocks everywhere. Everywhere he went there were clocks…thousands of them, hundreds of ...read more

    based on 44 ratings
     | 17,661 views

    There is more to gluttony than eating too much. It is a statement to God that you don’t trust God to take care of the future. You have to get all you can today because you aren’t sure of tomorrow.

    Funny Things Happen on the Way to the Promised Land Exodus 16:1-5 March 13, 2005 It was the late Bronze Age, about 1,500 years or so before Jesus, and the people of Israel were coming to the end of 400 years of slavery in Egypt.

    Safe Sin

    Contributed by Dean Morgan on Sep 1, 2004
    based on 16 ratings
     | 5,143 views

    The word "safe sin" is an oxymoron. There really is no such thing as a "safe sin." All sin is wrong and God will judge it all.

    TEXT: Ezekiel 18:4 TITLE: SAFE SIN This phrase “SAFE SIN” is what is called an oxymoron. Oxymorons are expressions or statements, which seem to contradict themselves but nonetheless make a point. Some examples are: “Cruel kindness,” or “clean dirt,” or “tough love.” As a rule these words just ...read more

    Contributed by Donnie Martin on Sep 6, 2004
    based on 8 ratings
     | 3,095 views

    The path to sin follows a generally predictable pattern, yet man never seems to notice the signposts along the way. This message seeks to point out the natural progression that the path of sin follows, so that the child of God can be aware and alert.

    TRACING THE STEPS OF TRAGEDY Text: Gen.3: 1-7 Intro: Tragedies are certainly not strangers to our world. We hear about them every day. Tragedy is no respecter of persons, places, positions, or possessions. No one, no matter what his or her station in life, is exempt from ...read more

    Contributed by Darrell Jones on May 27, 2005
    based on 18 ratings
     | 1,990 views

    I have often wondered what it must have been like to walk with God, Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. To have heard God’s voice, and received instruction and daily guidance from Him in person. I also wondered what the first morning was like following th

    For all of their created existence Adam and Eve had looked forward to the daily walk and time of fellowship with their Creator. But on this morning anticipation became anxiety, delight became dread, and the eye of guilt was opened for the first time. God and His created universe were now looked ...read more

    based on 35 ratings
     | 8,079 views

    Mad Cow Disease is an appropriate allegory for sin; it easily infects, it changes our attitude & behavior; but unlike the disease, sin can be cured at the foot of the cross.

    Dr. Tom Doubt, Senior Pastor Four Mile Creek Baptist Church January 25, 2004 Amos 4:1-5 MAD COW DISEASE BACKGROUND: A. Have you ever notice how some folk think you do not belong? 1.
