    Jesus The Controversialist Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Apr 17, 2023
     | 2,049 views

    Mark portrays Jesus as strong and bold as He dealt with spiritual controversies "head on." In this section of Mark, he grouped together four incidents that showed how Jesus faced the controversies and taught the truth. We need to ask ourselves if we are more like Jesus or the Pharisees.

    A. Let me begin with a question: when you try to picture Jesus in your mind, how do you picture Him? 1. Do you picture Him being gentle, meek and loving? Certainly, He was all those things. 2. But Jesus also had other characteristics and other sides to Him. 3. When we read the Gospel accounts, ...read more

    Is Jesus In Here? - 3:16 & Jesus Series

    As powerful a verse as I Timothy 3:16 is, it seems out of place with verses around it. That is, it seems out of place until we understand "the mystery of godliness". What is the "mystery of godliness?"

    OPEN: 5 year old Johnny was in the kitchen as his mother made supper. She asked him to go into the pantry and get her a can of tomato soup, but he didn’t want to go alone. “It’s dark in there and I’m scared.” She asked again and he persisted. Finally she said, “It’s OK-Jesus will be in ...read more

     | 546 views

    Jesus’ care is all-encompassing; it covers every aspect of your life—spiritual, physical, emotional, and mental. No burden is too heavy for Him to bear, and no problem is too complex for Him to solve.

    JESUS CARES By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: "Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you." – 1 Peter 5:7 Supporting Texts: Psalm 55:22, Matthew 6:26-30, Isaiah 41:10, John 10:11, Hebrews 13:5 INTRODUCTION: Life is full of burdens, uncertainties, and challenges that can ...read more

    Paul Vs Stephen (About The Resurrection Of Jesus)

    Contributed by Je Layugan on Oct 17, 2023
     | 1,561 views

    Paul and his friends could not win an argument against Stephen. In the end, Paul had an epiphany which lies in the understanding that God's love extends not only to Stephen and those he once persecuted but encompasses everyone, including himself.

    First, I am praying that at the end of this sermon, 1. We would have the desire to experience the deepest significance of Jesus’ resurrection in our lives. 2. We will never think of Paul’s story and Easter, the same way again. [PAUL/SAUL] • Paul was born, in about the same year or a little later ...read more

    I have done 3 funerals in the last month. I’m getting tired of doing them, so all of you knock it off. I don’t want to do any more funerals for a while. Two of the funerals I did I didn’t know the people personally, so their families had to give me something to talk about at the funeral. It is a ...read more

    Why Jesus? What makes Jesus unique is not only important to what we believe but it is at the heart of who we are as Christians. This sermon looks at the uniqueness of Jesus through four names associated with Jesus, names that Jesus either used of himself

    “Jesus answered them, ’I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name bear witness about me, but you do not believe because you are not part of my flock. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal ...read more

     | 457 views

    One of the greatest assurances we have as believers is that Jesus answers when we call upon Him. Unlike men, who may ignore or delay in responding, Jesus always hears and answers at the right time. He is not too busy to listen, nor is He indifferent to our cries.

    The end of John’s gospel calls me (and you I pray) to be committed to Jesus, committed to the truth about Jesus, and committed to the story of Jesus - past present and future.
