Sermons on Eternal Glimpse:

Sermon # 12 - God's Grace And Man's Responsibility Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 15, 2024

God’s grace and His justice are like two sides of the same coin. Both go hand in hand and if we underplay one or overplay the other, we will err and miss out on God’s eternal reward. The life of Lot and his family will help us understand this better.

We read in Genesis 19:16, When Lot still hesitated, the angels seized his hand and the hands of his wife and two daughters and rushed them to safety outside the city, for the LORD was merciful. (NLT) Most of us are familiar with the incident of the destruction of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. ...read more

Contributed by Bumble Ho on Nov 9, 2005

Contributed by Rick Duncan on Aug 26, 2003

I Have The Keys Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 1, 2003

For All Saints/All Souls: the Lord has the keys to the church, so we need not fear its future despite our locking up its resources; and He has the keys to our lives, so we need not lock ourselves in privacy; and He has the keys of eternal life.

Keys. I have keys. Lots and lots of keys. Thanks to keys, we can keep safe the things we consider valuable. But we are also kept from access to those things. Keys; we all have them, we all need them, we all appreciate them, but we all resent them at times. If you don’t have the right keys, ...read more

So Much Sand

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jul 22, 2008

In your walk with Jesus so far you know about His saving Grace and how your sins have been forgiven. That’s great news and it comes with an eternal promise of heaven as your resting place but what about your next step what follows salvation?

Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

Contributed by Robert Hoos on Apr 21, 2007

This sermon is about how we do not need to fear death. We can gain hope from Christ because he is eternal, and he has promised that we will be made to overcome death as he has. It still needs a little work, but i am a fan of the main idea of it.

The Rich Young Man

Contributed by Rodney Langley on Mar 11, 2010

Here we have the story of a young man seeking Jesus. He has one question,"What good thing must I do to receive eternal life?" The answer Jesus gives him causes him to leave very sad and has the disciples asking "Who then can be saved?"

Let God Do The Finger Pointing

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Aug 7, 2023

If finger pointing is impolite and it is so often connected to self-centered, sinful behavior why does God do it? God does this so that when sinners see their lost condition he can point them to the cross of his Son. There forgiveness is found. There salvation and eternal life are offered.

“Finger pointing.” What thoughts do those two words bring to your mind? For the most part they are probably negative thoughts. At a very early age we are taught not to point at people. It’s considered impolite. As we get older we experience finger pointing in many different ways. If we had ...read more

The Man Who Had Everything, Except . . . Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Oct 14, 2016

Jesus has a shocking answer to the young man who asked him what good thing he could do to obtain eternal life. His answer suggests that perhaps we need to reconsider how we present the Gospel--that the faith that saves also repents and follows Jesus.

He had actually come over to our apartment just after we had started our church to see about selling or leasing to ...read more

Rejoice In The Lord Always!

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jan 16, 2022

The source of our true rejoicing is found only through a right relationship with God! Everything apart from him is crumbling and disappointing. Yet our God is eternal, glorious, lacks in no way, and never fails. So those who enjoy a living fellowship with Christ are given true gladness of heart.

Are we known as a joyful people? Is that the reputation we have, that we’re often rejoicing? Perhaps not. On first impressions, our worship is pretty sombre. In speaking about our faith, most of us are reserved, and we keep our emotions well in check. Even when we have what we call “the celebration ...read more

Find Joy In Service Series

Contributed by Michael Mays on Sep 11, 2021

We spend a lot of time in this life chasing things that we cannot take with us when we die. Paul recognizes the value of eternal rewards, and it’s a good problem to have to be conflicted between continuing to earn more, or being in heaven to enjoy what’s been won.
