    Eph. 3:14-21 Steve Simala Grant, Sept. 15/16, 2001 We live in a crazy world – a world where hatred and violence exists, persists, and at times shocks us with the evil that some people can perpetrate on other people.

    Psalm 95 gives us three summons to worship, which show us three moods in which we are to come to worship.

    COMING TO WORSHIP Psalm 95 One Sunday, I arrived on time for the Sunday worship service, but the service did not start until a half hour late. During that time, some of the church leaders discussed how the service would be conducted. They had no hymnals and provided no words for their songs, even ...read more

    based on 76 ratings
     | 19,254 views

    This sermon reveals the true power of our words and our responsibility as Christians to choose them wisely.

    “Sticks and Stones...” There is a familiar old saying that we’ve all heard, it goes like this; “sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me.” Now, this is a response that probably everyone in this room today has uttered in the wake of some terrible barrage ...read more

    We need to realize that there are those that are out in the world that are quick to condemn us. Not only from the segment of our society that we call non-Christian and in the times of this Scripture were called pagan, but we are sometimes equally attacke

     | 21,208 views

    In life, just like in a garden, there are different kinds of soil. The kind of soil you are will determine how God can impact your life.

    Matthew 13:1-23 What Kind of Soil Are You? I’m not a gardener, nor do I play one on TV – but my wife is. And I’ve tilled around a bit – and dug into the soil we have around our house to put in sprinklers and the like. It’s bad stuff – with lots of clay. I have learned the clay doesn’t grow things ...read more

    He is better than the prophets, better than the Law and the sacrifices, better than the angels.

    About 6 or 7 years ago a new merchandizing craze began, and although at the time I thought it to be another passing fad, it seems that it has not only not died out...but has really only slowed down a little bit in all that time. I’m referring to angels. The merchandizing of everything ...read more

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jan 27, 2002
    based on 91 ratings
     | 12,338 views

    The place of the church in the last days is: 1. They will be God’s witnesses. 2. They will be persecuted. 3. They will be victorious.

    The book of Revelation is filled with strange and wonderful symbolism which is charged with emotion. Here, in chapter 12, a woman appears clothed with the sun, the moon under her feet and a crown of twelves stars on her head. The woman represents the people of Israel (Genesis 37:9). The sun is ...read more

     | 33,620 views

    Paul reassures the believers in Thessalonica who were afraid that those who had died would miss the Second Coming as he writes of the Return, the Resurrection, the Rapture and the Reunion.

    OUR BLESSED HOPE - THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS There’s often an interesting background to what we read in Paul’s letters to the young churches he had founded. The verses we’ve just read (1 Thess 4:13-17) are his response to a misunderstanding that had caused grief to the new Christians at ...read more

    I wonder how we would score if there were a test available that could reveal just how faithful & devout a Christian we really are - that really measured the level of our spirituality?

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK A. Not long ago I preached a sermon entitled “The Love Test” in which we mentioned that passage of scripture where Jesus asked Simon Peter, “Do you love me? Do you really love me?” And we talked about that subject. Now today, let’s go a ...read more
