    This is the First Sunday in Advent and the focus is on Christ's second coming. On that day the Day of Redemption will be complete. What is this day and how has it and will it affect me?

    Is Jesus First Place In Your Life? Series

    Contributed by Danny Rogers on Jan 16, 2008
    based on 6 ratings
     | 11,072 views

    Much of the false teaching taking place in Colosse had to do with the minimizing of Jesus. Many people thought He was important but not essential. They had given Him a place in their lives, without recognizing that He demands first place. Jesus was promin

    Intro: There was an article in a national news paper a few years ago that featured a denomination that wanted to radically reach those who feel alienated from church. Using market research and focus groups, this denomination has designed weekly services that deliberately de-emphasize Jesus Christ. ...read more

    Your Birthright

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Aug 29, 2018
     | 8,346 views

    Don't sell your birthright, like Esau did. Don’t sell out on your priesthood. Don’t sell out on the promises of God, and don’t sell out on your power over sin. Instead, enjoy your inheritance rights as children of God, and live like the kings you are!

    Your Birthright (Hebrews 12:14-17) Just a few years ago (2012), Dakoda Garren, a 19-year-old from Washington state was charged with stealing a rare coin collection worth at least $100,000. After Garren had completed some part-time work for a woman living north of Portland, the woman reported that ...read more

    If Jesus Christ is who Paul says He is, the Jesus deserves our submission and allegiance all the days of our life.

    Apprehending the Exalted Christ Colossians 1:15-23 INTRODUCTION One time at church camp, a Bible teacher decided to give the grade school aged campers who were in attendance the opportunity to ask him any question about Jesus that they had. Nobody had any idea what kind of questions he might ...read more

    Joseph’s Spiritual Promotion Series

     | 3,776 views

    Joseph had been promoted politically to the highest position in the Egyptian government, but his father would promote him to a higher position spiritually – in God’s nation, Israel.

    Joseph’s Spiritual Promotion (46:1-50:26, esp. 48:1-20) 1. Sometimes promotions are not measurements of success. 2. The boss called one of his employees into the office. "Rob," he said, "you've been with the company for a year. You started off in the mail room, one week later ...read more

    The Passover And The Passover Lamb Series

     | 6,773 views

    Exodus chapter 12 tells the story of the First Passover and the connection with the final plague, the Plague of death. There is a definite connection from the Passover in the Old Testament and the Lord’s supper of the New Testament.

    I remember hearing a striking sermon preached by a friend of mine. My friend became a Christian as an adult from a Jewish background. He was preaching on the Passover and his experience growing up where the Passover was observed in his home every year. It was an intimate family time for them. In ...read more

    First In Everything! (A Christmas Sermon)

    Contributed by David Mende on Dec 1, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,443 views

    Christ deserves the first place in all things: in our lives, in our families, in our time, in our conversations, in our studies, in our mission and ministry, in our jobs and businesses, in our decisions, and in everything! I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

    INTRODUCTION (SECURE ATTENTION) & BACKGROUND OF THE PASSAGE: PRAY before starting the sermon. We live in a pluralistic society and thus presenting the uniqueness of Christ is a great challenge. Some see Jesus as a great teacher. Some see Him as a prophet. Others perceive Him as a great ...read more

    What lies within us is more of an ambivalence towards leadership… we actually long for that which can organize life… that which can set forth what is right… and HEROES who reveal something of a better way.

    Jesus as the Word, co-eternal with God, active in Creation...

    THE ETERNAL WORD. John 1:1-3. “In the beginning” (John 1:1) takes us back to a point before the creation of the heavens and the earth. The New English Bible goes some way towards capturing this dynamic with the expression: “When all things began, the Word already was.” When we studied Genesis ...read more

    Christians in Colossae were losing sight of the supremacy of Christ as they listened to popular world opinion. Paul’s letter restores their confidence, and ours.
