Sermons on Existing:

Evil

Contributed by Andrew Drummond on Mar 3, 2010

Many ask Christians this question believing that because evil exists then that must mean there is no God, but that is a false argument. If God is good then how can there be genocide in Rwanda and shootings in high schools? How do you answer people when th

There isn’t anyone alive that would deny the existence of evil, but what is our response to it from a biblical perspective?

Looking Unto Jesus

Contributed by Daniel Olukoya on Jun 9, 2011

Living A Spirit-Filled Life

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Oct 20, 2009

A Spirit filled life should be the goal of believers. Few demonstrate lives filled with the power of God, most living a “ho-hum” Christian existence. Some wonder why there’s no victory in their lives. Reason is few are Spirit filled.

Early this morning, I sat looking into the dark sky and the verses from Psalm 30: 5 entered my mind. I watched the shadows of darkness flee from the coming morning light and heard the word of God speak, ‘For his anger endures but a moment; in his favor is life.’ Suddenly, the noise of daybreak ...read more

Discerning And Obeying God's Will - Hebrews 11

Contributed by Ken Henson on Jun 7, 2014

God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He speaks to His people just as He spoke the universe into existence. If we are looking, listening, and responding to God, He will direct our paths. This is the essence of the life God has designed for.

Discerning God’s will The Lord Spoke to Adam & Eve, Noah, Abraham & Sarah . . . that’s just the first few chapters of Genesis, the first book of the Bible. If we just go through the list of people God spoke to directly, and who obeyed His voice (or disobeyed it) we will be here all ...read more

Attribute Three | A Man Is Radically Obedient Series

Contributed by Vince Miller on Apr 29, 2018

A man is radically obedient. A man invites obedience to God’s moral code because he understands that morality exists outside of himself. He can obey God even when he is uncomfortable and cannot see the whole picture.

Radical obedience, gentlemen. Radical obedience.

The Seven Churches

Contributed by Glenn Dale Pease on Aug 29, 2014

Labor Day 2019 - Love One Another

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 31, 2019

When the industrial revolution came to America there was little or no love between the company and the employees, hence the growth of unions. Would Labor Day even be in existence if those involved had obeyed the Lord's command to love one another?

The Wonder Of It All Series

Contributed by Dr. Lewis W. Gregory on Jan 24, 2022

We, as humans, think we understand things. The starting point for becoming truly wise is to recognize that there is a power greater than us. That power is God Almighty. No true understanding exists apart from the knowledge of the one who is all knowing.

We only have a limited knowledge, a surface awareness at best. We must know our Creator — the Lord God Almighty — if we are to ever have true understanding and function correctly. 1. IT'S ABOUT WHO YOU KNOW - God has made Himself known through His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. In knowing Him, ...read more

Work Of Thy Hands

Contributed by Paul Richard on Jun 30, 2020

Work exists before man. The creation of man and other things were the handiwork of God and they were good. What a pity! Today’s man has a wrong perception about work for the sake of instant reward, personal gain or interest.

When something is created, done or made, work is said to have taken place (Genesis 1:11, Genesis 1:21, Genesis 1:25-27).

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 15, 2021
