    THE PLACE OF THANKSGIVING 1 Thessalonians 5:18 INTRODUCTION: A. Thanksgiving Day is a distinctive holiday. It doesn’t commemorate a battle or anyone’s birthday or anniversary.

    To show that GOD does not need our reputation He's no respecter of persons and requires us to obey Him.

    Decaf Christmas? Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 23, 2015
     | 5,322 views

    The reason we decaffeinate Christmas is because we don’t want Jesus intruding on our lives. Don’t want to admit that we need help. Little baby Jesus is OK, but he’d better not get out of the manger.

    This week a number of articles have come out, commenting on the push to get Christ out of Christmas. The best I read called this the decaffeination of Christmas. Carols that are all about trees, snow, reindeer, not about a baby born in a manger. Why do we do this? For some the story of ...read more

    To show that GOD does great things for us because of (a) His WORD and His Heart, (b) He wants us to know and understand Him.

    I. EXORDIUM: Had GOD done all great things for you? Yes and Amen! 2 Corinthians 1:20 (Amplified Bible) 1:20 For as many as are the promises of God, they all find their Yes [answer] in Him [Christ]. For this reason we also utter the Amen (so be it) to God through Him [in His Person and by His ...read more

    To show that GOD keeps on cleansing or pruning us for us to be like Him.

    I. EXORDIUM: Are you cleanse by GOD? Yes. John 15:2 John 15:2 (Amplified Bible) 15:2 Any branch in Me that does not bear fruit [that stops bearing] He cuts away (trims off, takes away); and He cleanses and repeatedly prunes every branch that continues to bear fruit, to make it bear more and ...read more

    The Jesus That Always Was Series

    Only a Messiah who was truly God could save humanity.

    Harry Reasoner, one Christmas years ago, gave the following closing to 60 minutes [God would become a baby.] It is a startling idea, of course. My guess is that the whole story that a virgin was selected by God to bear His Son ... is not an idea that has been popular with theologians. It's a ...read more

    Paul's instructions to the Thessalonians on sharing the Gospel.

    I don’t know about you, but the spreading of the Gospel and the growth of the church from the day Jesus said: “You are Peter and on this rock I will build my church” amazes me. It amazes me because of how the Gospel and the church spread from that little area of the Mediterranean ...read more
