    It's Fun Being A Christian

    Contributed by Chris Layton on Oct 1, 2007
    based on 9 ratings
     | 14,248 views

    This is an idea I received while listening to a cassette of Bro. Bob Harrington "The Chaplain of Bourbon Street" He is a dynamic speaker and a great man of God.

    There are some who do not completely understand the joy we have in being Christians. A lot of people are like a little boy who went to see his grandfather…. My friends, God did not save us to let us sit and sour. He expects us too be an example to a lost and dying world of His love. Too many times, ...read more

     | 5,459 views

    There is nothing like a contrast to make the point; Jesus used the idea of contrast to highlight Who He is, and to distinguish external religion from true devotion.

    The Power of Contrast (Mark 12:35-44) 1. Illustration … a few years ago,. Trying to tell someone about the Windfarm on I-65 in NW Indiana. This person had never seen the big windmills, and was thinking of a place with 3 tiny windmills on US 31.. or the types farmers use to pump water in ...read more

    Fellowship: Not An Institution

    Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on Feb 26, 2018
     | 4,666 views

    Our tendency to institutionalize everything has crept into the church as well. With this the idea of limited liability has also crept into the Church. But Jesus' message is not of limited liability.

    We are meditating on the topic of Fellowship this month. All of you know that we are called the Bangalore Bible Fellowship. How many of us know what we stand for, what BBF stands for? What is our purpose? I want to start with that today. The Purpose Statement of Bangalore Bible Fellowship reads ...read more

    The final judgment is called the “Great White Throne Judgment.” Many people scoff at the idea of it all and refuse to believe that there will be a future punishment for sins.

    Generosity

    Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jun 24, 2022
     | 4,168 views

    This sermon is about the false narratives that surround the idea of "generosity" or "giving" and the things that hinder Christians from having a generous spirit.

    I want to start off by saying giving in the Christian life is not so much an external action. Something that we do out of guilt or obligation, but really what we do in response to the love of God and the generosity of God. A generosity that we try to imitate as we seek to be more like Jesus ...read more
