    I once saw a package of plastic shark teeth that were labled as "genuine imitation shark teeth." I wonder if we aren’t guilty of being genuine imitation Christians at times. As Paul begins his letter he points out that the Colossians were 3D Christians-

    SERIES: JESUS CHRIST IS LORD...SERIOUSLY! SERMON: IS JESUS CHRIST LORD OF THIS CHURCH? Colossians 1:1-8 INTRODUCTION: This church will be what it ought to be when our members become what they should be.

    A sermon examining why we preach the Gospel.

    So We Preach! I Corinthians 15:11 These days many churches have differing ideas as to what is of paramount importance. Some put a great deal of focus on the “worship experience”. They spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on aesthetics, whether it be smoke machines & light shows, ...read more

    This is the beginning of our 24 series, 24 sermons on one day in the life of Christ.

    It began like any other day, and like any other day it had twenty four hours, no more and no less. And yet before those twenty four hours were over their world was turned upside down. Who would have thought so much could happen in a mere twenty four hours, that things could change so much from ...read more

    Panicked people do irrational things, like attempt to live in the past or to live out of bad religion. Panic can be dealt with only by trusting God and living in integrity. Luther’s Reformation is a prime illustration.

    Children are not the only ones who are afraid of the dark. You do not have to be a child to be subject to irrational, unreasoning fears, fears that take you over and leave you breathless. Children may be afraid of dark rooms and of monsters under the bed, but the rest of us also panic. Don’t tell ...read more

    How can we today, Turn our World Upside Down for the advancement of the Gospel? What people think of God is often based on how we represent Him.

    TITLE: LIVING UPRIGHT IN AN UPSIDE DOWN WORLD SCRIPTURE: ACTS 17:1-7 This passage of Scripture is one of those texts that needs little elaboration or explanation if any at all. It is inspirational just as it is read. The context in which these words are found is both ENCOURAGING and CONVICTING. ...read more

     | 15,730 views

    Jude’s letter is a call to contend for the faith once for all delivered to the saints. In today’s lesson we observe the call to contend for truth against heresy.

    Scripture Two weeks ago I began a new series of studies on the Letter of Jude, which I have titled, “Contend for the Faith.” The first week I introduced you to the Letter of Jude. I briefly touched on questions that arise whenever we begin a new study of God’s Word, such as: Who wrote the letter? ...read more

    Reality Check

    Adherence to the Bible will teach us neither to be overly optimistic nor overly negative about human nature, but will give us both hope and harmony. Thus we must be serious Bible students.

    Twenty-five years ago, Neil Armstrong stepped out of that lunar module and set foot where no person had ever gone before, on the surface of the moon. "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." We were fascinated, and we still are. Nothing like that had ever been done; nothing quite like ...read more

    Jesus said if we didn’t praise him, the stones would cry out. How can we keep the stones quiet? According to our text there are ways to keep the stones quiet.

    Churchill Or Church, Ill?

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,039 views

    As Winston Churchill rallied the British people, so Paul rallies Christians by urging us to review our motivations and to present something solid and not merely entertaining. Such a church will prevail and thrive.

    On the fifth of June, 1940, not even a month after he became prime minister, Winston Churchill spoke to the British people to encourage them of their desperate situation. Bear in mind that in September of the previous year the Nazis had invaded Poland, with no effective resistance. Thereafter, ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 20,786 views

    Gift of the Holy Spirit differs from spiritual gifts. God's Word and God's Spirit work in tandem in our lives. The Spirit touches the heart - the inner life. The same Spirit that indwelt 3,000 on Pentecost is the same Spirt that indwells us today.

    THE GIFT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT Just about everyone knows just how important the signs are that are placed along our highways are. These official highways signs give us direction and warn us of certain dangers. These signs are easily read in the daytime and also at night because they reflect headlamp ...read more
