     | 7,705 views

    Almost nothing can come with us from this world to the next. But the Bible records four things from this world that Jesus took back with Him to heaven. To this list you can always add souls!

    4 THINGS JESUS TOOK BACK TO HEAVEN Jn. 20:27-28 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: WORDS FROM THE WISE 1. A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand. 2. If it weren’t for STRESS I’d have no energy at all. 3. Learn from the mistakes of others. You can’t live long enough to make them all ...read more

     | 15,130 views

    This sermon is one that speaks to how to handle the bitterness that life can sometimes send our way. But there is hope in Jesus Christ.

    Many of us started out 2014 with a lot of optimism and promise, we made resolutions and statements of faith that we hoped we could keep. In some cases there were resolutions made that were in some ways unrealistic but sounded good none the less. Some of said we would work less, some said we would ...read more

    Jesus was not out to reform Judaism but to transform Judaism into something new. He was not out to give life to old form but to give life to a new form, a new way to God.

    MATTHEW 9: 14-17 [THE MESSIAH REVEALED SERIES] DON'T REFORM BUT BE TRANSFORMED [John 3:22-36/ Mark 7:18-22, Luke 5: 33-39] Here is another incident that goes along with the preceding 2 which shows Jesus in conflict with current opinion & practice. Jesus did not conduct His ministry as the ...read more

    Love On The March

    Contributed by Doug Silvers on Mar 24, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,871 views

    In the story of the Palm Sunday, Jesus was unafraid to march into the lion's den and willfully take what the world would give him. Jesus' humility and selfless act is masked on this day. We see Palm fronds and sing "Hallelujahs", but Jesus saw us.

    Love on the March Mathew 21: 1-11 & Isaiah 50:4-9 In a military setting, marching is done for a variety of reasons. It can be to get all of a platoon or squad from one place to another, Or, marching can be a way to show mastery of skill. It was in boot camp where we practiced the entire time ...read more

    Do The Dew (Of Heaven!)

    Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Oct 3, 2012
    based on 45 ratings
     | 23,909 views

    A sermon talking about spiritual experiences that are more comparable to dew than downpours. Dew falls silently, saturates and penetrates, satisifies completely, and is just as valid as a spritual downpour.

    Do the Dew (of Heaven!) (Note to pastors, here is a link for a "Dew" commercial where the thrust is that you can’t do life without your dew. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlKVbt8K7kY) Ho 14:4 I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.

    In Matthew chapter 3 we see John the Baptist speaking of two different baptisms; the baptism of repentance and baptism with the Holy Spirit. Are they the same or are they complimentary?

    Two Baptisms and Thanksgiving Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … Isaiah 9:6 “For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder.

    Because God is our Banner, there should be 3 R's in our lives: 1. Resistance to the world in us, 2. God should be our Rallying Point, and 3. the Redeemer's Name -- Jesus Christ -- gives us authority over sickness & demons, it saves us & we gather in it.

The tree was not sturdy enough to climb so the pastor decided that if he tied a rope to his car and drove until the tree bent down, he could then reach up and get the kitten. 2.

    Moses was well trained, and educated in all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was powerful in speech and action (Acts 7:22), yet, he needed God's guide to lead the people, so he prays to God, teach me the ways.

    Teach me your ways Exodus 33:12-23 Introduction: The text of Exodus 33:12-23 is the culmination of a series of new revelations of God’s identity and names throughout the book of Exodus.

    Lesson #19 [id3b] The Encouragement Toward Maturity Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Oct 21, 2020
     | 2,489 views

    No one can escape coming into the world as a baby because that is the only way to get here! But it is tragic when a baby fails to mature. No matter how much parents and grandparents love to cuddle and hold a baby, it is their greater desire that the baby matures.

    2/1/20 Tom Lowe Lesson #19 [ID3b] The Encouragement toward Maturity (Hebrews 6:1-3) Scripture: Hebrews 6:1-3 (NIV) 1. Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death ...read more
