    Emergency Planning

    Contributed by Richard Down on Jan 7, 2011
     | 5,231 views

    Emergency planning means getting ready for when things go wrong. This sermon considers how well we are prepared for things to go wrong in our Christian lives and how God can lift us back up when we fall.

    Many years ago when I was rather younger and fitter than I am now I was a member of a local Rescue Team. Our remit was partly Mountain Rescue but since the mountains in our area were rather made up of hills and moors this was not the dramatic role you might expect. We tended to get calls to assist ...read more

    One of the wonders of the Christmas story is that the Triune God gave the honor of being the mother to the Savior of the world to an unmarried teenage girl.

    The belief that Mary, the mother of Jesus, is the "Mother of God," "Queen of Heaven," a perpetual virgin, and has an exalted place in Heaven, which provides her the closest access to Jesus and God the Father, is not taught anywhere in the Bible, which is the final and absolute ...read more

    Getting Right With God

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Dec 30, 2002
    based on 11 ratings
     | 5,010 views

    Some people think that God looks at our lives and balances the good against the bad. If we have more good than bad, we get to heaven. That’s not how it works - to get right with God you’ve got to go around the law and get rightness from another source.

    The power to make a difference comes from Jesus, not us

    Intro: (Start w/Blank) A young woman brought her fiancée to meet her parents. After dinner, her father asked the young man into his study for a chat. "So, what are your plans?" he began.

    God wants to put a stop to our old way of living so that we might experience His restoration and know His love.

    Arrested by Love Acts 9:1-19 Intro: In my nearly 40 years, I’ve never been arrested. I did receive 3 speeding tickets and a traffic violation soon after I turned 16. Then I got another speeding ticket 3 years later- back when the interstate was still 55 MPH in ID, rather than 75. Of course I ...read more

    John Newton was a sinner. He didn’t deserve to be saved. It was only because of the Amazing Grace of Jesus he had a prayer.

    OPEN: In 1776 the great patriot Thomas Paine, wrote the following words about freedom: “What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; ’tis dearness only that gives everything its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed, if so celestial ...read more

    Now I realize that whenever the subject of death comes up, many people try to avoid discussing it, reluctant even to think about it. But not all people are that way.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (REVISED: 2016) TEXT: Revelation 21; Psalms 90:10 A. Have you ever tried to picture what it will be like right after you die? After you breathe your last breath? After you heart beats its last beat? What do you think ...read more

    In Mark 10 we learn from the Pharisees and from some kids on how we approach Jesus. Do we try to justify ourselves, or be justified by God?

    Mark 10:2-13 So, usually I like to have my sermons done by Wednesday or so, and I worked very hard to get this one done on Wednesday. I wrote a sermon using the Gospel lesson that talked about marriage and divorce. And after I wrote it, I read through it before I went home and realized it was ...read more

    God’s love has two sides—salvation / judgment… life / death… redemption / righteousness. He loves with a purpose—salvation. He loves with a consequence—judgment.

    What was the first memory verse you ever learned? For most of us, it was John 3:16. I have a set of 6 books at the house that I bought a few years ago. They are by a man named Carl F.H. Henry. When Carl Henry died in 2003, the New York times called him the brain of the evangelical movement. ...read more

    The Rivalry Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 2/26/12 I’ll never forget watching the 1991 NBA Finals. It was billed as one of the greatest matchups in NBA history. It was dubbed “Manifest Destiny: Magic vs. Michael” by the Chicago Tribune and called “The ...read more

    The Sabbath Holiday (1) Series

    Contributed by Ron Tuit on Sep 8, 2014
     | 4,757 views

    Are Christians supposed to "Honor the Sabbath Day to keep it Holy?" Does Freedom in Christ mean freedom from everything? As Jesus expanded on the moral law, He also did so concerning "Sabbath".

    The Sabbath Holiday Gen 2: 1-3, Exodus 20:1-8, 31:17, Deut. 5:12-15, Hebrews 4:3-10 This past Monday was Labor Day in the US; Labor Day has been a National Holiday since 1894. As you probably know, the word “holiday” comes from the Old English words ...read more

    A Word To The Wise On Righteousness Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 26, 2013
    based on 76 ratings
     | 38,200 views

    God calls us to live righteous lives. But Romans tells us that no one is righteous. So, God wants to me to be righteous. I want to be righteous... but no one is righteous so I can’t be righteous. How can that possibly make sense?

    OPEN: Back in 1929, Chicago had a problem. In fact, the tentacles of that problem infested much of the nation around Chicago. The problem had a name. And that name was Al Capone. Capone was a criminal. A wicked man who literally ran the city of Chicago. He owned most of the politicians and ...read more
