    Did Jesus Fail?

    Contributed by Bill Butsko on Jul 1, 2009
     | 5,080 views

    This message explains why Jesus could not perform a great work in His hometown of Nazareth.

    Text: “He could not do any miracles there, except lay his hands on a few sick people and heal them” (Mark 6:5). If Jesus could not do any more miracles here in Nazareth He must be classified as a failure. Do you agree with that statement? If you or I try to write a book or a song and we are ...read more

    We live in a day of the Prophetic. I believe in God given dreams and God given Visions, and I believe in God given Prophesy. For the real there is also the false. The Bible tells me that there will be false Prophets that will arise and will decieve.

    A Fox In Our Hood Ezekiel 13:1-6 1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 2 Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say thou unto them that prophesy out of their own hearts, Hear ye the word of the LORD; 3 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe unto the foolish ...read more

    I preached this sermon exactly 26 days after my Mom went to be with the Lord. Read this powerful sermon and experience the peace that Jesus gives even in the midst of a storm! I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

    Introduction: Prior to this passage, we see that Jesus taught few parables to His disciples about the Kingdom of God. Probably for the sake of privacy and relaxation, Jesus proposed a trip across the lake of Galilee. And in this passage, Mark, the Evangelist gives a graphic account of the stilling ...read more

    This is a message discussing the bread for physical life and the Bread for spiritual life.

    Text: “For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world” (John 6:33). Is there anyone present who has never eaten bread?

    Saved From Hell

     | 5,226 views

    Many pastors do not want to preach on HELL fearing they’ll not appear relevant. It’s pressure from the culture to not speak anything negative. Apparently we have begun to deny hell. There’s an assumption that everybody’s going to make it to heaven somehow

    Opening illustration: Video of ‘HELL’ from center of the earth. Introduction: Many pastors do shy away from the topic of everlasting damnation. "It’s out of fear they’ll not appear relevant. It’s pressure from the culture to not speak anything negative. I believe we’ve begun to deny hell. There’s ...read more

    It Is A Love Story

    Contributed by Carl Greene on Feb 17, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,239 views

    Is the story about healing the Leper just about physical healing? Or is there more to the story? Most translations use the word "clean" ... not "healed." But could this "clean" mean "forgiveness" of sin? Mark Chapter 2 suggests it may be.

    I confess to you how I struggled with the scripture this morning. I struggled because when I first read this scripture, I wondered “how can I preach about this “healing” when I know we have people in our congregation who are good, faithful servants, disciples of Jesus Christ, yet who are suffering ...read more
