    Bowing To The Great Idol Of Self

    Contributed by Mark Adams on Jan 13, 2007

     | 5,912 views

    The OT has a lot of interesting stories about idolatry, but is that really just a problem of the past? This sermon addresses the very real problem that our culture has in worshiping our own desires above all else.

    To the reader: What inspired this sermon was a quote I read in R.C. Ortlund’s book, When God Comes To Church, p. 194. "Self is the great idol standing at the center of our conceptual world, to which all bow low. We even have a duty-to-self ethic, as if self-denial were harmful, immoral, and ...read more

    INTRODUCTION: Not to be Bargained With One of the volumes of C.S.

    Have You Forgotten God?

    75% of British people say they believe in God but so few have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. This is an evangelistic sermon given to a congregation where about a third are not christians yet.

    An article in The New York Times in December 1990 told how a group of 50 Japanese engineers held a religious ceremony at a Buddhist temple to pay their respects to ‘old computer chips’. The chief priest dressed in purple robes, bowed low and chanted as a large tray covered in used parts was placed ...read more

    The problems of a ’pick and mix’ approach to a relationship with God

    Exodus 32: 1-14 Pick and Mix Christianity One of the great mantras of current politics is the word ‘choice’. It seems that we must have choice in everything whether it’s the schools our children go to, or the hospitals we are treated in. Disappointingly, this idea of choice is strictly limited ...read more

    Two Loves

    based on 9 ratings
     | 4,600 views

    Moses was a man of two loves - a love for God and a love for His people. It seemed to be two incompatible loves, but they are actually one. His prayers expressed the very heart of God - one of compassion and mercy.

    Moses was away for too long – 40 days on Mount Sinai • The people couldn’t wait any longer, and so they decided to make themselves a new god – a golden calf • Even before Moses step down from the mountain, the Lord told him what was happening at the foot of the mount. Having been delivered from ...read more

    Find Atonement In God's Intercessor

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jan 30, 2006
    based on 11 ratings
     | 4,504 views

    Christ has done what Moses could not do. He has "made atonement" for the sins of God’s people. Jesus took our guilt upon himself. Jesus received the punishment we deserved because of our sins.

    In the Old Testament lesson for this Sunday we heard how Moses served as a sign to God’s people. He symbolized a greater prophet who would appear some time in the future. For forty years Moses filled the role of God’s voice among the Israelites. Remember they had asked for that arrangement after ...read more

    Were it not for the intercession of Moses, the Israelites would have been destroyed. This message shows us that only God is to be worshiped. It also teaches us the value of intercessory prayer.

    ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD Exodus 32:1-14 INTRODUCTION: All that glitters is not gold. While Moses was on Mount Sinai receiving the Ten Commandments, something dreadfully wrong was happening below among Aaron and the Israelites.
