     | 3,677 views

    I first put this Lenten address together in 2008, and when the Vicar's wife said she found it good and thought it should go on "Sermoncentral" - so who was I to disagree. I offer this series as a help and it is based on Richard Foster's excellent book Prayer

    Introduction. This series on Prayer is based on Richard Foster’s BRILLIANT book simply called "Prayer". If you want to study Prayer seriously it is a book you must read. Story: This series of studies came out a time of retreat at Mariastein, near Basle in Switzerland in October last ...read more

    Sin Leading Unto Death

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 9, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,117 views

    The Bible tells us that there is a sin that leads unto death - one single sin - and it might not be what we expect. In fact, this one disqualifying sin will exclude us from ever going to heaven and receiving eternal life. So, what is this sin?

    If there was a crime worthy of death, what would it be? Would it be murder, rape, spouse abuse, adultery, theft, gambling, or perhaps lying? Many of us would say that murder is worthy of the death penalty; and if any of us had a child that were raped, we would probably believe the person who ...read more

     | 2,203 views

    The call of Jeremiah has challenges for us and we look at them. Abortion and the unborn are examined from God's perspective. How many sit down and laboriously draft and redraft some message straining to “polish” some sermon. Just speak what God has given!

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 28, 2022
     | 2,290 views

    The account of Noah is ridiculed, but it is filled with interesting facts, some problems, but much challenging teaching. This message, Part 1 of 3, examines the times of Noah with reference to our times and even beyond that. Who were the Nephilim?

    NOAH PART 1 – THE FAITHFUL PREACHER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IN A PERVERSE GENERATION There is much to learn in the study of Noah, and we draw some lessons from this factual account in God’s word. Let us look at the opening verses of Genesis chapter 6: {{Genesis 6:1-4 Now it came about, when men began ...read more

    We want to look at another conversation in the Bible that the Lord had with people He came into contact with daily.

    This is a conversation between Christ and a Phoenician woman. WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT HER? We do not know a great deal about this lady, but the Scripture makes it clear: • She was Grecian woman (Gentile) • She was a mother • She was a mother with a serious problem When she came to the Lord we ...read more

    “The nearest thing to heaven on this earth is a church full of people who love the Lord, and each other.” I believe we all will concur with that statement.

    The Psalmist must have also felt this way, because he said in Psalm 133:1, “How good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!” But if it is true that a church full of people who love the Lord and each other is the nearest thing to heaven on this earth, it must also be true ...read more
