    Our Lord Never Gives Up

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 10, 2022
     | 1,162 views

    Imagine one being divine for a couple of weeks. Not like Jesus Christ, who as Second Person of the Trinity emptied Himself of everything to become man, all the way to a cross.

    Twenty-Fourth Sunday in Course 2022 One of the critical prophetic statements in the OT is in the book of Hosea (11:9). Hosea hears God tell him about the divine intention toward the kingdom of Israel: “I will not. . .destroy Ephraim. For I am God and not man–the Holy One among you–and I will not ...read more

    “For Christ, did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.” (1Cor 1:17)

    Introduction: The theme for today’s sermon is “sent to preach the good news”. The good news is about the grace of God, God’s undeserved favour, as a result of the death of Christ on the cross, His burial and His resurrection. The good news is that Christ has delivered us from the kingdom of ...read more

    Easter gives us an opportunity each year to revisit the empty tomb and be reminded of the power of God, who is able to do more than we can ask or imagine.

    Who Shall Roll Away the Stone? Study Text: Mark 16:1-8 Introduction: - Mark tells us that when the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices to prepare Jesus’ body for burial. - Early on Sunday morning, certain women came to Jesus tomb to anoint His body ...read more

    A New Future Series

    Because of Easter we have a new future. How do we know that the resurrection is true? Because of the external testimony,. the empty tomb, the expensive toll and everlasting transformation.

    EASTER – A NEW FUTURE Does anyone have a cross necklace on right now? Have you ever thought about what the cross really is? Originally the cross was a tool Rome used to execute its criminals. It was not just a form of execution; it was a form of torture and humiliation. The victim usually ...read more

    The Re-Creation Story Premium Sermon

    Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 9, 2023
    based on 3 ratings
     | 786 views

    The sermon explores the concept of re-creation through the story of the empty tomb in John's gospel, emphasizing how the Risen Christ's love for us offers a chance for resurrection and transformation.

    The story of the empty tomb in John’s gospel is one of re-creation with hints back to Genesis and John 1. The Risen Christ sees Mary just as she is and loves her. The Risen Jesus sees all of us, too, just as we are and offers to re-create us with resurrection life. This is the fulfillment of God ...read more

     | 1,803 views

    Spiritual dryness is a state where a believer feels distant from God, experiences a lack of passion for prayer, worship, and Bible study, and struggles with a sense of emptiness in their faith journey.

    OVERCOMING SPIRITUAL DRYNESS. (PART 1) By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Psalm 63:1 "O God, You are my God; Early will I seek You; My soul thirsts for You; My flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land where there is no water." Supporting Texts: Isaiah 44:3 John 7:37-39 Ezekiel ...read more

     | 165 views

    Theme: How does the triumphal entry of Jesus going into Jerusalem show the dynamics between the humble and the haughty and how salvation is affected? ... Jesus empties himself to serve others.

    Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Proverbs 18:12 (ESV) P: Before destruction a man’s heart is haughty, C: but humility comes before honor. Have you heard that word haughty? What does haughty mean to you? When I first heard its definition it made me think of ...read more

    All of life is filled with parables and metaphors that point to the meta-narrative of existence. The four seasons are laced with it. Media, movies, books, and stories are filled with expressions of the longings of our hearts. We long for a place we've never been.

    The church is for far more than empty ceremony on occasions demanded by tradition; it is the steward of new life, with a rich and full experience that employs the diversity of gifts God has given it.

    Last week you seemed to get a big charge out of my little story about going to a wedding rehearsal and wasting time waiting for a key person to arrive. When I said that I didn’t know what we’d do on Sunday afternoon if he didn’t show up, you let out a belly laugh. You assumed I was talking about ...read more

     | 14,601 views

    In the words of Bill Hybels, we are too busy NOT to spend time alone with God. It speaks to those who may have found their prayer time empty and why that may be.

    This is the fourth in a series but can be used stand alone. It looks at the bright new morning that dawns to dispel the shadows of the cross. A stone rolled away, a tomb standing empty, and a promise fulfilled.

    Shadows of the Cross Pt 4 From the Shadows a New Day Dawns Luke 24:1-12 It was early dawn – the sun not yet above eastern horizon. Three women make their way quietly toward the tomb of Jesus. As they make their way down the road their eyes might have been called again to a hilltop called Golgotha ...read more

    When the Son of Man ascended to Heaven he didn’t leave us empty-handed. He left us with all we need to be victorious in every fact of life.

    WHAT DID JESUS LEAVE FOR US? By Pastor Jim May I was somewhat amused this week with so many people who were concerned about the passing of the date 6/6/06. It never ceases to amaze me that people, who are supposed to know and understand the Word of God, are so superstitious, and so afraid, of ...read more

     | 4,025 views

    Sin at its worst is the inability to understand ourselves and to control ourselves, leading to separation from self, others, and God. The cross, the empty tomb, and Christ’s life rescue us.

    Well, are you ready today for the fourth step, the step that’s all the way down at the floor level? Those who were not here last Sunday do not know what I’m talking about. Those who were here will need a little review. Let me explain. Last Sunday we walked the first mile on the Roman Road ... ...read more

    The empty tomb means that we are freed from the power of sin over our lives and we can live the kind of lives God originally intended right now in the present.

    A Life of Discipline: Lent week 3 March 7, 2010 Intro: The season of Lent can sometimes feel like the opposite of the season of Advent, don’t you think?

    Nothing clears away the emptiness of everyday life like learning about Christ and then sharing that with someone else. God has created us with an automatic desire to share good news.

    Part II Purpose: To encourage believers to live in the light of Christ's soon return. Aim: I want the listener to be challenged to do the work of discipling because Jesus is coming back.
