    Based on Rev 22:12-end and John 17:20-26. The invitation at the end of Revelation is made to the Great Feast, and we as a church should set aside pride and in unity reach the lost with the Gospel of Christ.

    Behold, I come quickly. I was told a story long ago about a preacher preaching on the second lesson this morning from Revelation 22, and Christ’s words “Behold, I Come quickly.” A new preacher, fresh out of seminary, was so nervous about delivering his first sermon that ...read more

    Explains the costs and rewards of faithfulness as a Christian.

    Let’s take a look at society’s honest view of the early church by reviewing this letter from antiquity: For Christians are not distinguished from the rest of mankind by country, or by speech, or by dress.

    The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the foundation of the faith and the greatest event in the story of civilization. The proofs from Scripture and the lives changed by it cannot be ignored or denied.

When the Lord Jesus told Martha at the tomb of Lazarus, "I am the Resurrection and the Life" (John 11:25), He proved it by bringing HIs friend and her ...read more

    Because the "night is coming" we should be working the works of Jesus while we still can.

    Intro: To get a picture of what Jesus may be saying in this verse, I picture a hard working farmer in days before modern farm machinery. He rose up early each day in order to be in the field before "first light" to take productive advantage of every minute of daylight in cultivating his crop for ...read more

    Not much is known of Gaius, he was a faithful member in one of the churches of Asia Minor. The Apostle John conveys his own appreciation for Gaius by calling him “beloved,” 4 times in this one chapter. Serveral decesions!

    Many churches and denominations today are observing the Lord's Supper less and less, but this is not God's plan for the church. It appears that the first Christians observed the Lord's Supper weekly on the Lord's Day.

    Introduction: A. Today’s sermon continues our series called “Blueprint: God’s Plan for the Church.” B. I heard about a church that recently began offering “gluten-free” bread for the Lord’s Supper. 1. It has been very well received, but its initial introduction didn’t go so well. 2. The first ...read more
