    When Jesus shows up at Peter's work, Jesus destroys the artificial divide between sacred and secular. Wherever the Lord is, is ripe for a miracle. And if our life belongs to the Lord, he is welcome to any and all of it.

    All or Nothing Faith Luke 5:1-11 [Please contact me at kerry.n.haynes@gmail.com for sermon outline in Word.] We have this artificial divide in our world between “sacred” and “secular,” between things that are of God and everything else.

    Sadducees Sadly Mistaken (2004)

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,673 views

    The intention of the question of our "case in point" (Luke 20:27-40) was designed by those who composed it to make a fool of Jesus. It backfired. The scripture tells us that when Jesus answered that question, no one dared to ask Him any other questions.

    SADDUCEES SADLY MISTAKEN Text: Luke 20:27-40 Bruce Larson made the comment that the question that the Sadducees posed to Jesus was a test that was designed to determine whether or not He was a conservative or a liberal.

    You have only one chance to preach a sermon. What text would you use?

    Many years ago, I remember reading a book called “If I had only one sermon to preach”. The photos of the ministers on the front cover or dust jacket made me think twice about reading it, though, because these men had some of the most sour expressions I’ve ever seen! It reminded me of a bit of ...read more

    Paul's continued journey gives us two things to focus on: We must be sure that our own hearts are right and that we’ve chosen Christ, and we must be sure that we have told everyone that we know about Him! This is our calling as the Church, and where we must focus today.
