Fire PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 12, 2025

God’s presence remains with us in every trial; we are never alone, for He walks with us through every fire, bringing comfort and courage.

Some of us walked in today with smiles that mask a thousand aches. Bills stack higher than courage. Reports from doctors bruise the heart. The road feels rough, the night long, the fire fierce. You’ve prayed, you’ve waited, you’ve wondered if God still walks your hallway or stands beside your ...read more

Wolf Country

Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 31, 2017

Jesus sent out His disciples, comparing them as sheep sent in the midst of wolves. So, the flock of God to this day lives in the midst of wolves as they fulfil the will of the Master.

Beware of men, for they will deliver you over to courts and flog you in their synagogues, and you will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness before them and the ...read more

Let No-One Put Asunder

Contributed by Michael Bates on Sep 5, 2023

Christian marriage is sacred. This short sermon describes what the biblical definition of marriage is and what the biblical grounds for divorce are. God hates divorce so therefore divorce should only be the very last option in any marriage.

You probably already know what this mini-sermon is about before I even finish this first sentence. Well, you are right, it's about marriage. Now in this message, I’m talking about the biblical definition and Christian view of marriage, not the secular view and what today’s society wants ...read more

The Last Message Of Daniel: 6, Looking Like The Antichrist Series

Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Jun 7, 2015

Antiochus Epihpanes looks like a man who fits the prototype of the endtime man of sin. These are facts that came to pass already in the days between Greece and Rome. But much of his action looks modern too.

11:29a “At the appointed time he shall return and go toward the south” In 168 is the third invasion of the Sixth War. Some say he had actually placed the crown on the head of Euergetes in the last campaign and is coming this time ostensibly to correct that matter by crowning the ...read more
