Sermons on Elisha:

The Simplicity Of Faith

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jul 7, 2019

Faith in Christ is not always easy, but simple. Elisha, Naaman, and his servants remind us to: 1. Offer a simple witness to someone in need 2. Encourage others to do the right thing, and 3. Accept what God offers you.

2 Kings 5:1-14 The Simplicity of Faith There is a saying: “Nothing is as simple as it seems.” Sometimes that’s true. Someone well-meaning gives you advice, and you’re thinking, “You don’t know the half of it!” Or you plan something out, and Murphy’s Law kicks into gear, and makes life a lot more ...read more

Supernatural Evangelisim

Contributed by Ian Johnson on Jun 24, 2006

If there were hillsides full of Chariots helping Elisha then there are hillsides of Chariots helping His servants today. After all the book of Hebrews says, “The Angels are Ministers of fire sent to help the Heirs of Salvation:”.

The Supernatural realm, the Angels and the signs and wonders of God should be a natural part of our Chrisitan life.There is a fear that we will fall into deception or be led astray by these Supernatural experiances. But I suspect that if an Angel came into our room and asked us to worship him, we ...read more
