    This is a message I preached for our Church’s 56th Anniversary but you can adapt it to your situation.

    INTRODUCTION: Today we celebrate 56 years as a Church. 56 years of preaching the Gospel of the Lord, Jesus Christ. 56 years of standing on the fundamentals of the faith. 56 years of holding to the Baptist distinctives. Nearly 56 years on this same corner and in this same building, although ...read more

    3rd of 4 messages: It comes down quite simply to a single truth: Sheep need care and protection.

    A Shepherd’s Work Last Sunday I spoke about the three distinctives that set apart the “good” shepherd from the hired man and the mediocre, self oriented shepherd. The distinctives are: 1) The good Shepherd IS the door; 2) The good Shepherd KNOWS his sheep; and 3) The good Shepherd LEADS his ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,227 views

    God expects us to treat one another as equals, love one another, and worship with one another.

    1. God expects us to view one another as EQUALS. The church at Colosse must have been a very diverse church. “Here there is no Greek or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free…” (v. 11a). The distinctions that are so important to the world mean nothing in the ...read more

     | 12,830 views

    Do you live an isolated, separate life because you think it is what God wants you to do?

    Disciples who Make A Difference How do we who are Believers relate to the world of which we are a part? We are fond of saying that ‘we are in the world, but not of the world.’ There are several warnings in the New Testament about becoming so comfortable in our culture that we are no longer a ...read more

  • Was That Hosea I Saw At Sexpo?! (A Sermon On The Book Of The Prophet Hosea)

    Contributed by David Smith on Nov 19, 2007
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,415 views

    It’s very graphic - the book of Hosea - and full of passion. For what is at stake, Hosea believes, is not simply a nation that is breaking a few commandments, but rather an ...

    "Plead with your mother, plead - for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband - that she put away her whoring from her face, and her adultery from between her breasts; lest I strip her naked and make her as in the day she was born, and make her like a wilderness, and make her like a parched ...read more

    Before conversion a person is under the law and suffers the bondage that relationship brings; after conversion one is in Christ and enjoys the freedom that relationship brings.

    Under the Law or in Christ? Galatians 3:23-29 Introduction Continuing his discussion of works of the law versus faith in the promise, Paul in our text before us tonight, now contrast the personal effects those two approaches have on people.

    based on 9 ratings
     | 7,748 views

    While all believers are called to discipleship, Jesus shows that many are not willing to pay the price.

    ILLUSTRATION: Discipleship Two longstanding church members were in a boat fishing with a new Christian. Passing the time, each was talking about his fervent faith and devotion to God. As they were discussing their faith, one’s hat blew into the water. So he stood up, calmly stepped onto the ...read more

  • The Holy Trinity – Father, Son And Holy Spirit

    Contributed by The Rev Deniray Mueller on Jun 14, 2019
     | 6,903 views

    No matter how educated we are, the concept of the Trinity escapes our understanding - it is something to be taken on faith

    I speak to you in the name of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Amen One of the first sermons I delivered here at Saint John’s, without realizing when I agreed to preach, was Trinity Sunday in 2011. I have to tell you, of all the Sundays in the year, this is the one that makes ...read more

  • The Identity Of Faith Series

    Contributed by Greg Powell on Aug 19, 2020
     | 3,886 views

    There is an identity crisis in our country. I believe that our racial problems are a result of an unbiblical view of our identity. This passage has long been used to rebuke a racist and bigoted view of the gospel.

    INTRO: Galatians 3 has been a history lesson through the Old Testament. One of the more complicated chapters of Paul’s writings, it’s been a difficult hike, but like many hard journeys, there is a rewarding view at the end. We have climbed the mountain peaks of Abraham and Moses and have seen ...read more
