    The Unsearchable Riches Of Christ Series

    Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Mar 22, 2022
     | 1,860 views

    What Paul was doing in the early church we are to continue to do the same today. The caveat is that we must always be careful not to bend the message of the gospel to fit the preference or desires of those to whom we are sharing the gospel.

    based on 1 rating
     | 13,935 views

    Mankind has a tendency for pride and self-promotion. Pride results from our fallen state, revealing itself early in life. It has no conscience, seeking only self-satisfaction. Jesus reveals the remedy for pride.

    The Pitfalls of Pride Mark 10: 35-45 Man by his very nature has a tendency toward pride and self-promotion. The attributes associated with pride are revealed at a very early age. Children don’t have to be taught to be selfish; this characteristic is within their nature. Left unchecked our pride ...read more

    This sermon deals with the reality that every single person is a whole person. It deals with the single lifestyle and what if offers compares to the marriage. The early church lifted up the single lifestyle. I have a powerpoint available on request.

    The Eternal Sabbath Series

    Contributed by Ron Tuit on Oct 22, 2016
     | 5,509 views

    The Sabbath day of the Old Testament is fulfilled in the work of the Lord Jesus in the New Testament. It is no wonder that Christians in the Early Church called the first day of the week, "The Lord's Day". The Lord's Day coincides with God's Creation.

    “The Eternal Sabbath” Exodus 20:8-11 We have been looking at the Ten Commandments as part of the unfolding drama of salvation in the Old Testament. A short review from Exodus 20:1: “And God spoke all these words, saying: 2 "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the ...read more

    In Paul’s day the early church met in homes and had a meal (agape feasts) that was followed by the Lord’s Supper. One of the many problems in the church was the abuse of this event. Paul had a word of rebuke for them.

    EXAM TIME I CORINTHIANS 11: 17-28 INTRODUCTION: Exam time can be pretty intense. As we prepare for that moment we can get pretty anxious. This passage concerns the observance of the Lord’s Supper. A key verse is “v.28”. In Paul’s day the early church met in homes and had a meal (agape ...read more

    Sermon # 10 - United To Fulfill God's Will Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 20, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 453 views

    God’s call to the church today is that we be united just like the early church so we can experience the powerful working of the Holy Spirit of God. Our prayer to God must be that those who hinder this unity be removed and that we fulfill God’s will in our lives.

    We read in Jonah 1:7, Then the men said to each other, "We should throw lots to find out why this is happening to us." So the men threw lots. The lots showed that the troubles came to them because of Jonah. (ERV) As we continue this series of studies on the life of Jonah and the church, ...read more

    The earlier followers of Jesus were known simply as “followers of The Way.” The way of Jesus is a way of peace, a way of mercy, and a way of grace. Christianity is more than simply an ethic or a philosophy. The early disciples lived together and broke

    The Divine Fire

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 13, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,001 views

    It is clear from our Jewish roots and the early church that Pentecost is about a new spiritual experience. It is about a promise and it is about how we are changed when we receive this promise of the Holy Spirit. It is also about a harvest.

    The Divine Fire We look back today at the first evidence of the presence and power of the Holy Spirit in the early days of the Christian Church. This movement by the Holy Spirit is a promise fulfilled by Jesus and a promise fulfilled by prophecy as St. Peter tells us from Joel Chapter 2 . Jesus ...read more
