    The Walk, The Word, And The Witness

    Contributed by Mike Cleveland on Mar 24, 2008

    In Luke 24 we are presented with disciples who "walk" on the Road to Emmaus, encounter "the Word" along the walk, and become "Witnesses" of His resurrection.

    Let’s open our Bibles this morning to Luke 24. A Sunday School teacher had just finished telling her third graders about how Jesus was crucified and placed in a tomb with a great stone sealing the opening. Then, wanting to share the excitement of the resurrection, she asked: "And what do you think ...read more

    There are a lot of things that we can learn from Peter. This morning though I want to ask you to be reminded of just one thing. What transformed Peter from an unstable man into a man of courage? The grace of God and the power of the resurrection!

    Transformed By Grace, Acts 2:14a, 22-32 Introduction During the first and second centuries, the symbol of Christianity was the fish. A present-day Christian decided that a fishhook would be the proper emblem for a soul-winner to use for winning people to Christ, so he had a little golden fishhook ...read more

    We must adopt the attitude of compassion to carry the word of Christ into our hurting world through our actions.

    Attitude – Luke 10: 25 - 37 Intro: There is a legend involving Jesus, the disciples and Peter. In the story, Jesus and his disciples passed by a rocky field.

    The Priority Of Life

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jul 20, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,672 views

    Jesus did the will of the Father and finished His work. He knows His purpose in life, set the right priority, and has a passion for the lost. We want to know our purpose, set the priority and develop the passion exemplified by Christ.

    Jesus says, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent me and to finish His work.” • Of course, this couldn’t mean that Jesus do not have to eat. • Jesus uses this incident to highlight to His disciples what is important. Someone said, “The greatest danger in life is in permitting the urgent ...read more

    based on 28 ratings
     | 15,377 views

    "Witnesses" — it is that word which defines for Christ’s disciples their role and responsibility. We must not lose sight of the fact that the Holy Spirit came to equip the disciples to carry out their work of witness.

    ACTS 1:8 “Ye shall be witnesses” The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery in Washington, DC, has a guard 24 hours a day. Every hour on the hour, 365 days a year, a new soldier reports for duty. When the new guard arrives, he receives his orders from the one who is leaving. ...read more

     | 10,530 views

    All Christians are supposed to be ambassadors of Christ. As his ambassadors, we carry his authority. But we avoid showing it because we’re afraid of what people may think of us.

     | 12,389 views

    Do we shed tears for those who are lost? How do we sow the seed of God’s Word? With tears in our eyes or do we just go through the motions?

    The Tears of a Sould Winner Psalm 126:5-6 A farmer may weep due to the drudgery of his labour, but after the ground has been tilled, the seed planted and the harvest brought in, the same farmer returns from the same field rejoicing in the fruit he has received.

    This message is to encourage the church to never give up on the mission. Regardless of the circimstances that may arise, we should hang on to God’s unchanging hand and to take that much needed step to recieve our promised blessing.

    NEVER GIVE UP Acts 14:1-7 One thing we have to learn as Christians is, regardless of how hard things get or how disheartening they may become, we must not give up. I’ve discovered in this vocation as a pastor, is that every pat on the back is not for ...read more
