    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 7, 2002
    based on 66 ratings
     | 16,588 views

    Laodicea has always been known as the "luke warm" church. But what caused them to be so nauseating to Jesus. Their sin was subtle but just as dangerous as any that the other churches suffered from.

    OPEN: I once heard of the skipper of boat that was sinking in the ocean who frantically radioed for help. Finally, the Coast Guard answered his plea. The Coast Guard replied: "We’re on our way. What is your position? Repeat, what is your position?" The yachtsman responded: "I’m executive vice ...read more

    An invitation has been extended and a response is required.

    Introduction: It’s fascinating to me how after only a few years of being married, a couple can sometimes communicate with a very small number of words. Husbands, if you will, imagine this scene with me. You’ve been invited to a party, and after spending the day working out in the yard, you dash ...read more

     | 114,919 views

    As we study the book of Nehemiah, we’re going to learn things that will help us personally, we’ll discover principles that will guide us as we move into a time of building here at PBC, and we’ll end up understanding a critical part of Old Testament histor

    Knowing How to Pray I checked my notes and realized that it’s been a year since I gave you a Bible quiz. Here’s a new test for you. I’ll give you a hint ­ all the questions have to do with the Old Testament. Who was the greatest comedian in the Bible? Samson. He brought the house down. Who ...read more

    We must 1) Forsake our Former life, 2) Understand our Present Life and 3) Live for our Future Life

    At year end tends to be a time of extremes. Some fall into one extreme of debauchery and falling back into a lifestyle that they were redeemed from. Or the other extreme, like that of the Galatians, of falling into a type of legalism of trying to earn their favour with God. The Galatians has ...read more

    How To Live Right

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,608 views

    Our thinking drives our behavior. Rather than blindly accepting the trends in our society, Christians should allow their thinking to be shaped by revelation in the word.

    How to Living Right Romans 12:1-3 6-28-09 I begin this message today with an assumption. My assumption is this: Deep in the heart of every Christian is the desire to live right before God. I can’t imagine someone who is truly born again not wanting to please God. When the cry “Abba Father” comes ...read more

     | 7,723 views

    In a world bound in the modern day wrath of God, there is a call upon the church to become aggressive in her fight for the souls of mankind.

    Turn your Bibles to Jeremiah 6:16-17a Title: A Watchman’s Vision Theme: Biblically Achieving Our Call Topic: Biblically Understanding CrossRoads Vision Listen as I read Jeremiah 6:16, “Stand at the crossroads and look… ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for ...read more

    A Neglected Command

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Oct 10, 2008
     | 3,156 views

    How odd that Christians should be commanded to be thankful. However, upon reflection, we discover that we truly need such commands if we will honour God.

    A NEGLECTED COMMAND COLOSSIANS 3:15b “And be thankful.” Only three words comprise our English text; but the text is assuredly appropriate on this Sunday before our national day of Thanksgiving. It serves to remind us of one of the essential characteristics marking the person who knows the ...read more

     | 18,732 views

    Father’s Day message that focuses on men of God needing to pull life together when it’s not in line.

    Just because I said, “Men, It’s Time to Get It Together,” that doesn’t mean women you should close your bibles and divide your attention, because although I would like to focus on the men I guarantee you that there is a message in this sermon for you as well.

    Knowing that God cares for you.

    How many of you like attention? I don’t expect everyone to admit to that, but during self-examination be honest with yourself. There are some people who love to be the center of attention. They want to be seen and heard, and if no one is giving them the attention they’re seeking they become ...read more

    Isaiah encourages the people of Judah to walk in the light as preparation for the reign of Jesus.

    This morning we’ll continue our study of the “Day of the Lord” in the Old Testament prophets as we begin a series of messages from the prophet Isaiah. Since Isaiah deals with the Messiah, both His first and second coming, more completely than any of the other prophets, we’ll be looking at a number ...read more
