    The Hope We Have In Christ

    based on 14 ratings
     | 11,251 views

    The hope we have in Christ sustains us in the face of death.

    Paul says that those of us who know Christ, "do not sorrow as those who have no hope," Though we face times of sorrow, Paul tells us, we will face them differently because of the hope we have in Christ. While the world thinks of hope in terms of "wishful thinking," the Bible speaks of hope as a ...read more

    I preached this at my grandmother’s funeral. She was 88 and althogh her health had been declining, her death was very sudden. Her last request of me was to officiate at her funeral, which I did and was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my ministry.

    (Reading of the obituary) I think it’s pretty safe to say that this day came as a great shock to almost every one of us in this room here today. While we knew that Grandma wasn’t in the best of health, and had some past health issues a little over 4 years ago, none of us thought that we’d be ...read more

    This sermon is my first funeral sermon in the learning process. It is about the death of Christ bringing about an end to the fear of death.

    The End of Death There is a fear that is imbedded in our human nature. It exists regardless of wealth, culture, or ethnicity. It is the fear is fear driven by the unknown. It is the fear of death. It is a spiritual fear. One that consumes our minds with thoughts of what ifs. It causes us ...read more

    Using Jesus’ Good Shepherd narrative, I’ve written a sermon for the death of a pastor.

    June, Cori, Steve, family and friends, we gather today not as we have gathered before. A few of us were just recently gathered at Clarence’s bedside as he was recovering from his recent heart attack. Some of us recently celebrated our Savior’s birth together as a family.

    This is a funeral service for a deeply commited Christian man who imitated Jesus by serving his spouse and others. In John 14:1 Jesus promised to "take each beleiver home". He does not delegate this task. Death is an intruder into our world but it is no

    Funeral for Guy Robinson, one-time chair of Takoma Park Baptist Church’s Building and Grounds Committee. God keeps the doorkeeper secure, and withholds no good thing from those who stay away from dishonesty.

    I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness. Eight plus one equals nine, subtract nine, leaves zero. That is the first thing Guy Robinson taught me, more than 23 years ago. It was the first thing, but by no means the last. Guy was at the time I ...read more
