     | 20,569 views

    Jesus didn’t come to save you from your circumstances. He came to save you from your sins. Even though the people were looking for a Lion King to come save them from the Romans, Jesus came as a Lamb to the slaughter so he could really save them.

    A Palm Sunday Hosanna Matthew 21:1-11 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples, 2 saying to them, "Go to the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt by her.

    The Rational Mind Deceived

    Contributed by Scott Spencer on Jan 28, 2012
     | 3,710 views

    What is it about the idea of God that makes many people uncomfortable? The idea of God does make many people feel that way, you know. For a country that has "In God We Trust" on its money, we are pretty confused about what kind of God we trust.

    9th The Rational Mind Deceived Romans 1:18-23 January 22, 2012 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.

    The passion of Jesus is happening precisely because Jesus is perfect and in perfect control. All this handing over is going according to script.

    Introduction We continue along the road that for Jesus has been a travesty of justice and friendship. First, Jesus, the Messiah of the Jews, is conspired against by their leaders. Judas, one of his disciples, sells his loyalty to the conspirators. The rest of the disciples abandon him at his ...read more

For I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin. 2God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 11,694 views

    Man calls it an accident, God calls it abomination ... Man calls it a weakness, God calls it willfulness. We live in the last days when people have started to call evil good and good evil ... What will you say about good and evil? The choice is yours!

    Opening illustration: Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman told of a distinguished minister, Dr. Howard, from Australia who preached very strongly on the subject of SIN. After the service, one of the church deacons came to counsel with him in the study. "Dr. Howard," he said, "we don’t want you to talk as openly ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,312 views

    God is a God of order. The first picture we have of God in the Bible, is that of a Creator, who takes a formless chaotic mass, and turns it into an orderly universe. Heaven will also be a place of amazing and perfect order

    THE ORDER OF HEAVEN based on Rev. 21:9-21 By Glenn Pease In the sixth century B. C. a boy by the name of Pythagorus grew up with his father, who was a gem-engraver.

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 20, 2015
     | 5,390 views

    Despite the many ways we have of connecting you’ll still find that many people today feel a deep sense of isolation. But the primary result of the fall wasn’t a breakdown in our relationship with each other, it was a breakdown in our relationship with God

    True Confession

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Mar 10, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,238 views

    The very word to confess has a much deeper meaning to agreeing with God about the whole aspect of what Jesus did on the cross and what sin really is all about. For a person to confess has to do with the person agreeing with God for what He has done for us

    Opening illustration: A woman said to a preacher, "I have a habit that I know is hurting my testimony—the habit of exaggeration. I start to tell something and I go on and on enlarging the story. People suspect that it's not true, and they lose confidence in me. I'm trying to get over it. ...read more
