    We Must Through Many Tribulations...

    Contributed by Joel Sanabria on Jun 12, 2005
    based on 26 ratings
     | 7,836 views

    Understanding how to obtain the blessings of suffering as Christians.

    WE MUST THROUGH MANY TRIBULATIONS... What is tribulation, but that very influence that brings us nearer to the heart of God than prayers or hymns? I think sorrows usually bring us closer to God than joys do, but sorrow, to be of use, must be endured, as Christ’s were, victoriously, carrying with ...read more

    Honesty And Integrity

    Contributed by David Petticrew on Mar 16, 2004
    based on 55 ratings
     | 13,406 views

    A sermon looking at honesty and integrity in the life of Christian.

    Introduction When I preach I always go on about reading it in context. About establishing the original context of when it was written, who it was written to and what the situation described was. How the original readers would have understood that. That is all very important. But there is of course ...read more

    A Noble Request

    Sacrifice is a word that few people enjoy hearing about unless it is in baseball. When a runner is on third base and the hitter hits a deep fly ball to left field, he is credited with belting a sacrifice fly to bring the runner home.

    Presenting Yourselves as a Living Sacrifice (Romans 12:1-10) Sacrifice is a word that few people enjoy hearing about unless it is in baseball. When a runner is on third base and the hitter hits a deep fly ball to left field, he is credited with belting a sacrifice fly to bring the runner home. ...read more

    The Deportment Of Daniel.

    Contributed by Melvin Shelton on Aug 23, 2003

    We can guard our position and our stand while watching our manners.

    THE DEPORTMENT OF DANIEL. Daniel 1:8-21 2:1-23 What did Daniel have to guide him at this crucial time in life? What determined the stand he would take at the time of his temptation? Personally I can see only one thing. That is the knowledge he had of the Holy Scriptures. That is why it is important ...read more

    Spiritual growth is ignited by passion, fuelled by the power of God, and sustained by self-discipline.

    Central Verses: 1:6-7 Behavioural goal: The listener will set a growth goal for the coming months and pursue it. Last Sunday many of you heard a message from Psalm 90 on making your life count. I want you to think way back to that time to reflect for a moment. Did it make any difference in ...read more

    Living By Faith In Hard Times

    based on 61 ratings
     | 36,110 views

    Leaning how to develop a strong faith during hard times.

    I can’t understand why some things happen as they do. It seems that people with the finances to hire the most famous attorneys are much more likely to go free than those who must be represented by assigned public defenders. I become cynical about justice because neither guilt nor innocence seems to ...read more

    Redeeming The Time

    Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Jan 5, 2004
    based on 28 ratings
     | 11,551 views

    The main ingredient for redeeming the time (or as Paul said, being wise, not fools) is wisdom. This sermon is a challenge and encouragment to receive wisdom from God.

    THE PASTOR’S POINTS sermon ministry of CEDAR LODGE BAPTIST CHURCH Thomasville, NC January 4, 2004 September 10th, 1945 finds a strapping (but tender) five and a half month old Wyandotte rooster pecking through the dust of Fruita, Colorado.

     | 32,266 views

    Some things in life are simply not for sale.

    You can tell that the season of summer is here, if not by the traditional signs such as higher temperatures, at least by the signs of garage sales popping up all over the place. Has anyone been to any yet? Has anyone hosted one yet? Picture this. There you are, keeping one eye on the ...read more

    Honoring parents gives us and society the stability we need to flourish.

    I started reading science fiction when I was 11 or 12, I think. My father brought home a couple of Heinlein juveniles from the library, Red Planet and Space Cadet. I don’t remember which one I read first, they’re both still favorites. All the Heinlein juvies are good reading. The plots were all ...read more

    An exhortation to action!

    Just Do It…Now! The Nike© commercials urge people to "just do it." They are encouraging people in the area of athletics and to quit being a couch potato. Of course, ideally if you "just do it" you will need shoes and hopefully you will buy their shoes. The more you ...read more

    The third in the series. About not taking risks or chances. Not having faith/trusting in God. Being crippled by fear. Something like that.

    The Seven Habits of Highly Ineffective Christians (3) Embrace the Triangle of Mediocrity Cardiff Heights Baptist Church 16 January 2000 Summer is one of my favourite TV watching times of the year.

    The Ark Of The Lord

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 120 ratings
     | 16,425 views

    The story of the Ark’s return to Jerusalem is a sharp reminder of what happens if God’s instructions are flouted and the blessing that obedience brings.

    THE ARK OF THE LORD I expect some of you will, like me, have wasted a couple of hours watching the film "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark". It’s a fantasy adventure story loosely based on the fact that the Ark of the Covenant was lost without trace nearly two and a half thousand ...read more

    No Longer Aliens But Citizens

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Nov 1, 2000
    based on 73 ratings
     | 7,163 views

    The apostle Paul portrays mankind without Christ as Alienated from God, but through Christ can be reconciled to God and grantet citizenship of his kingdom.

    NO LONGER ALIENS BUT CITIZENS Most people like to belong to something secure - to a family, their community or their country. To belong gives security. And yet the society in which we live results in many that are alienated from it. "Alienated" is a word that is found in St Paul’s letter to the ...read more

     | 4,420 views

    Examination of the spiritual implications of the charting of the human genome.

     You may or may not have realized it, but last Monday’s (6/26/00) news carried the story that is a very likely candidate for the story of the decade. The New York Times headline proclaimed: “Scientists Complete Rough Draft of Human Genome” The entire human genome has been ...read more
