    The Elder Son Syndrome

    Contributed by Keith Linkous on Jun 22, 2002
    based on 86 ratings
     | 7,721 views

    Luke 15 talks about a father and his two sons. One is a prodigal, and the other is pious. This message looks at some of the attributes of the elder son. Prayerfully, you have not succumbed to the elder son SIN-drome.

    One of the great dangers for anyone who has been saved by the grace of God is that they become so familiar with being saved, that they do not rightfully keep God in the place of exaltedness in their life that He occupied at the first. Neither do they serve God in the way that they should. ...read more

    The Three C's Of Salvation - Part 1 Conviction Series

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Oct 15, 2003
    based on 79 ratings
     | 26,006 views

    Easy believism has permeated our churches. We moved away from talking about three C’s of salvation in an attempt to avoid negativity. True Biblical salvation consists of conviction, confession, and conversion.

    THE THREE C’S OF SALVATION PART I – CONVICTION JOHN 16:7-14 INTRODUCTION: In the late 1940’s and early 1950’s a shift in preaching and evangelism took place that has caused a crisis in Christianity. What has been termed as "easy believism" permeated our churches. We moved away from talking about ...read more

    Easy believism has permeated our churches. We moved away from talking about three C’s of salvation in an attempt to avoid negativity. True Biblical salvation consists of conviction, confession, and conversion.

    THE THREE C’S OF SALVATION PART 2 - CONFESSION Romans 10:8-13 INTRODUCTION: We have stated that the biblical formula for salvation is conviction plus confession plus conversion equals salvation.

    The Life That God Blesses Series

    Contributed by Jason Pettibone on May 14, 2007
     | 9,358 views

    I am talking about a life of true blessing, a life marked by prosperity more important than wealth or fame, and a life of eternal significance which God loves to give to those who will walk by faith.

    The Life God Blesses I am convinced of this - “God loves to bless His children!” What do I mean by that? Let me borrow words from Gordon MacDonald who writes – “God desires to pour out on people gracious and uncommon gifts: gifts might include personal affirmation, intimate relationship, ...read more

    People nowadays talk better than they listen. We have tuned out God when He is trying to lead us. This message endeavors to get us thinking about listening to God once again.

    Caught

    I want to talk to you about three things that we can try to cover up, but that, according to Scripture, will be revealed, maybe during this life, maybe not; but no doubt they will be revealed on the final day of judgment.

    A telemarketer called a home one day, and a small voice whispered, "Hello?" "Hello! What’s your name?" Still whispering, the voice said, "Jimmy." "How old are you, Jimmy?" "I’m four." "Is your mother home?" "Yes, but she’s busy." "Okay, is your father home?" "He’s busy too." "I see, who ...read more

    How To Treat Those Who Are Busy Series

    based on 20 ratings
     | 5,358 views

    As we continue our series, “How to Treat Others”, I want us to talk about, “How to treat those who are busy.” And I have a feeling it will really be a sermon about how to treat yourself.

    Some time ago, a newspaper in Tacoma, Washington, carried the story of Tattoo, the basset hound. Tattoo didn’t intend to go for an evening run, but when his owner shut his leash in the car door and took off for a drive, Tattoo had no choice. A motorcycle officer named Terry Filbert noticed a ...read more

    The central text talks about how, when you are young, you are "no more than slaves". Students can certainly relate to this! But then comes graduation day... Student ministry PowerPoint format.

    Speaking The Truth

    based on 40 ratings
     | 4,863 views

    The Bible is replete with directions about verbalizing truth, but it seems that many people are afraid of being accused of talking to themselves.There are numerous benefits that come from speaking the truth out loud that need to be considered and applied

    Speaking the Truth - Eph. 4:15 Illustration: It is good to speak the truth out loud, even if it may be a bit late. My son Zachary, 4, came screaming out of the bathroom to tell me he’d dropped his toothbrush in the toilet. So I fished it out and threw it in the garbage. Zachary stood there ...read more

    During my prayer time and preparation for this sermon, the Lord kept talking to my heart about gardening. You have to understand that when it comes to having a green thumb, I flunk in that area very poorly.

     | 44,522 views

    Jesus talks about several things that we need to be aware of before the end comes. 1- There will be worldwide chaos 2- There will be hatred of people 3- There will be false leaders 4- There will be much wickedness 5- There will be much preaching

    INTRO.- ILL.- A girl said, “My mother and I returned to my parents’ house late one evening to find my father, my college-age brother, Steven, and my ten-year-old sister fast asleep. “Mom had forgotten her house keys, so we knocked loudly, first at the back door and then the front and side doors. ...read more

     | 17,746 views

    Our lives would be greatly altered without fire. The Bible uses the word fire throughout its contents. However there are four kinds of fire mentioned in the Bible that I would like to talk about this morning.

    Luke 4:43 But He said to them, "I must preach the kingdom of God to the other cities also, because for this purpose I have been sent." Jesus had the power to accomplish his purpose. The purpose for his coming was the preaching the kingdom of God to the whole world. He has given us the same ...read more

    Without A Doubt

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,265 views

    As we walk with God in our daily lives “doubt” seems to rise up consistently. When we talk about our faith, our assurance, or having confidence it can be easily recognized that the opposite of these is DOUBT.

    Without A Doubt Scripture: John 20: 24 - 29 Key Verse: “Then Jesus said to him, ‘Because you have seen me, you have believed: blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.’” Ill: One day John Wesley was walking with a troubled man who expressed his doubt as to the goodness ...read more

    Christ: Our Saviour And Our Example

    A short talk for Good Friday. I am deeply challenged by Peter reminding us that when suffering for his faith, Jesus did not retaliate and made no threats; and we’re called to follow his example!

    When I was at school there was no such thing as an anti-bullying policy, and I think I was on the receiving end of a large amount of abuse, mainly due to my surname, Pidgeon, and my painfully thin physique. As I look back I think I eventually adopted my own personal anti-bullying policy and it went ...read more

    What Do We Learn From The Trinity?

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Jun 3, 2012
     | 7,482 views

    This is my latest attempt at an all-age talk to explain something of the nature of the Trinity and what it means for us as believers. Please note, I make the point that we can't fully understand the Trinity. It is a paradox.

    [Note to the reader: this is NOT an expositional sermon. It is a talk about the doctrine of the Trinity. So please don't be disappointed that I don't explain this passage verse by verse :-)] Today is traditionally known as Trinity Sunday; and it has been said that Curates and newly appointed ...read more
