    Is God real? Does He care? Is He even there? Is He there for me? All questions sincere people ask all the time. Why? Because they’ve experienced heartache. They’ve been disappointed.

    based on 26 ratings
     | 13,463 views

    This is a sermon on Identity from the perspective of "The Exchanged Life" which seeks to facilitate one accepting their identity in Christ.

    I recently read a book about rejection and its effects entitled, "The Ins and Out of Rejection" by Charles R. Solomon. Did you notice the plural tense of "Ins" and the singular tense of the word "Out"? The point is, there are many ins into rejection, but only one "out." The only way out of ...read more

    Offense involves the conduct of the person who is injured. It denotes the enticement or occasion leading to conduct that brings with it the ruin of the person in question. In our text Luke 17:1, the concept of offense is concerned mainly with the fact tha

    Today, I would like to deal with the word “offense.” Used in a variety of ways in Scripture, as it is in English: it is an infraction of law, sin, transgression, and state of being damaged. In addition, it is the act of creating resentment, hurt feelings, and displeasure. The Greek word for ...read more

    Third in revival series at Emmaus Baptist Church, Quinton, VA: Dialogical (sought testimonies from audience at selected intervals). We may feel that our investment in faith is a waste; but it will not be if we can learn to grow in relationships.

    I hate waste. I despise it when I find out I have wasted something valuable – time or money or effort. Don’t you? Doesn’t it just frustrate you immensely if all your good work goes down the tubes? When I first learned to use a computer, I didn’t know you could set a word processor on auto-save. ...read more

    Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Nov 13, 2007
    based on 10 ratings
     | 11,292 views

    We all fail. How should a "failure" be treated when he comes within the refuge of your Church? How does God greet us? He doesn’t condemn us. He doesn’t forget us. He doesn’t forsake us. And he will never stop loving us!

    Title: "How God Greets a Failure?" Text: Romans 7 and Romans 8. Introduction: In this message I want to show a parallel between a text found in the Old Testament and this text found in the New Testament. In 1 Samuel 12, Samuel mentions that Israel had rejected the leadership of the Lord. ...read more
