    Donut Theology / Be Teleios

    In Greek, the word translated "perfect" in Matthew is "teleios". " If something accomplishes what it is designed to do, it is said to be perfect that is "teleios" So "telios" is often translated as "mature". "Teleios" has the idea of "being complete."

    Jesus proclaims In the Gospel Lesson today: "Be perfect, therefore, as your Heavenly Father is perfect." Be Perfect! Let us consider two other passages that speak to this calling, a calling to be perfect: From Genesis Gen. 6:9 "Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked ...read more

    A Memorial Day sermon that transitions from the normal Memorial Day themes to the idea of our lives being a living memorial with the foundation of God's Word, the framework of faith in Jesus Christ, and the walls of works.

    Building a Living Memorial Memorial Day Sermon Chuck Sligh May 26, 2013 The skeleton and some of the basic thoughts for this sermon is borrowed from a sermon by Daniel Austin titled A Living Memorial which may be found on SermonCentral.com. Most of the meat on the skeleton is pretty much my own ...read more

    This is my revision of the 3rd Message in the 40 Days Of Love Series. It deals with how we love people with our words. Tome & Michelle Holladay are my primary resource for some of the ideas.

    Words Influence Love Psalm 1:1-6 Acts 2:1-20 Pentecost 5/31/09 We are in the midst of 40 Days of Love as we celebrate Pentecost. Pentecost is the day the Holy Spirit fell down on the church. There were about 120 men and women gathered together in prayer. Jesus had told them, do ...read more

    Tenth and final in series, "Life’s Too Short To..." this message looks at the ekklesia - the living body of Christ in the world, and challenges the idea that Christianity can be legitmately lived apart from it.

    I got this idea from reading a sermon that i saw on sermon central. Then i just went with teh holy spirit as he lead me. I looked at the ministry of the Holy spirit.

    I got this idea from a sermon I saw on SermonCentral. Very few fulfill the purpose of God in their lives so they never fully know the fulness of life God has for them.

    “LIVING ON PURPOSE” LWC July 26, 2009 I’ve teaching on “PURPOSE” on Wednesday nights for some weeks now. It’s something God has impressed on my heart. I know that if we are to live any kind of “Righteous, Successful Christian Lives” we need to understand our “PURPOSE” in life, given by God! God ...read more

    The sermon is a kickoff to our VBS with the same theme. The idea is that the characters of the bible were significant to God in their development before him. We used CAR names to remind us of certain bible characters.

    1. A Car Ride Home After a baby dedication service for his baby brother in church, little Johnny sobbed all the way home in the back seat of the car. His father asked him three times what was wrong. Finally, the boy replied, "That preacher said he wanted us brought up in a Christian home, but I ...read more

    Christmas provides an illustration of how people react to idea of God. During the Christmas season many will admire the baby Jesus who was born in a stable. The problem is that very few lives are changed by this celebration.

    Purpose: To establish the awesome holiness of Christ. Aim: I want the listener to submit wholeheartedly to Christ. INTRODUCTION: How can we be sure that we will have the help and the blessing of God on our lives and on our church? Isaiah answers that question for us in today’s text. The answer is ...read more

    The focus of this sermon is to help the congregants get sold on the idea that training is a regular part of the Christian life. It is difficult to engage in any sort of intensive training activity unless you are convinced that there is a need for that.

    Debbie and I were blessed to be able to end our vacation on a seven-day cruise through the western Caribbean. Here is a picture of us enjoying dinner in the ship. It was a very enjoyable time.

    I’m really glad God came up with the idea of Christmas. But what did God have in mind when He created Christmas? What motivated Him to bring Christmas to us?

    Christmas is really enjoyable on so many levels. But a widow names Stella has an unusual experience on Christmas. Stella’s first Christmas as a widow brought incredible loneliness. One day her doorbell rang and she was greeted by a messenger holding a box. “What’s in the box?” she asked. The ...read more

    A lengthy story about a man born blind provides a clear picture of what happens when your theology bumps into inconvenient facts. Will you reach for God or cling to your predetermined ideas?

    SEEING THE LIGHT: The man was blind but saw by believing and obeying Jesus. - John 9:1-7. a. We’ll get more into the confusion in a moment, but the disciples echo the prevailing theology of the time and presume that someone must have sinned for him to be blind. - vv. 1-2. - It was a theology ...read more

    We all have different ideas about what would be the ideal life, and we all strive to acquire it. We will never have the ideal life until we get to heaven.

    Some say that heaven will not be heaven for some people. Illus: That reminds me of the story one of the fellows in church told me. He told me that Bill, Ron, and Jack all died and went to heaven. When they got there, they discovered the most beautiful golf course they had ever seen. St. Peter ...read more
