    Our Heavenly Father

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jun 18, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,040 views

    When we pray, we see the Father’s love (the basis of our prayer), the Father’s control (our assurance), and the Father’s heart (our goal in life).

    The Lord’s Prayer we recite is a prayer Jesus taught His disciples. • It is not His prayer to God but a prayer meant for us. • Jesus need not have to pray “forgive us our sins” for He had no sins. In the Scriptures, the longest prayer of Jesus is found in John 17. • This prayer was made just ...read more

    More Than G P S (Free Will In God’s Plan)

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 10, 2025
     | 180 views

    God lovingly planned salvation for everyone in Christ but never forces anyone’s choice. "More Than GPS" shows that His foreknowledge guides without controlling, calling us to live assured and freely abide in Jesus.

    Preface: This message explores the biblical theme of God’s plan and human freedom from a Seventh-day Adventist perspective. Christians across history have understood predestination and salvation security in different ways. The aim here is not debate but encouragement—helping all who read or ...read more

    His Desired Fruit Series

    Contributed by Terry Laughlin on Mar 23, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,055 views

    I would like to propose to you that walking in step with the Holy Spirit produces the lovely things of God, which everyone can choose to enjoy. Therefore, it is worthwhile to take time to gain a Biblical understanding of the nine fruit offered to every born again Christian.

    Title: His Desired Fruit Theme: Fruit of the Holy Spirit Introduction: Jesus said, "This is to My Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be My disciples." (John 15:8) Considering how these are the very words spoken by Jesus Christ. Christians, longing to please the ...read more

    If you want to pass the tests of life and come out on the other side of your trials a better person, more like Christ, then with God’s help: Receive the Word – do it! Reflect on the Word – fix it! And practice true religion – live it!

    In her book Amazing Grace, writer and poet Kathleen Norris shares what she calls “the scariest story” she's ever heard about the Bible. Norris and her husband were visiting a man named Arlo, a rugged, self-made man who was facing terminal cancer. During their visit, Arlo started talking about his ...read more

    Holy Spirit Love For All

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 24, 2018
     | 4,454 views

    Saints do not let anyone tell you that you are a second class Christian because you do not speak in tongues or walk on fire or survive snake bites. Such testing and qualifying today is not of the Spirit but is of men not God. Without love I am nothing.

    Holy Spirit Love for All 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 Acts 10:44-48 Have you ever noticed that this Christian life does not always go according to the script that you and I think it should follow? Just like when you go to a live theater performance people forget their lines. Sometimes we as ...read more

    Facing The Challenge Of A Warped Society

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 29, 2023
     | 1,142 views

    Paul expected all of his congregations to listen to their minds and order their hearts in the right way. He told the folks at Thessalonika that they had no need for anyone to write them about loving their neighbor.

    Saturday of the 21st Week in Course 2023 Ordinarily we tend to associate St. Paul’s teachings on chastity and lust with the letters to the Corinthians. But that’s shortsighted. Remember that even as far back as Plato and Aristotle, the virtuous life was associated with men and women who would ...read more

    Two Kings, Two Paths

    Contributed by Martin Spoelstra on Oct 12, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 406 views

    Big Idea: Saul grasped for control, while David trusted God’s timing. True kingship is not measured by force but by surrender to the Lord.

    They say, “timing is everything.” And you don’t have to be a musician to know that’s true — although if you’ve ever sung the wrong verse while everyone else moved on to the chorus, you know how awkward bad timing can be. Think about how much of life depends on timing. Arriving five minutes late to ...read more

    Things that control us, by the power of Christ, we can control.

    “Then They Came” Mark 2:1-12 - The Bible is full of real and imperfect people. Noah was a drunk; Abraham was too old and a liar; Sarah laughed at God’s promises; Isaac was a daydreamer; Jacob was a liar; Leah was ugly.

    if you don’t control anger, anger will control you

    The Seven Deadly Sins: Anger--(wrath, mad, boiling, hot headed, cruel, rage, violent) Jesus said, that the law says not to murder, but anyone who has wrath, violence, anger--has the spirit of murder living in them. We live in an angry society, don’t cross them or you will get it. The bad thing ...read more

    Abiding Peace PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 14, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 169 views

    The sermon teaches that true peace comes from intentionally focusing our thoughts on what is good and true, rather than letting anxious thoughts control us.

    Some weeks feel like the noise won’t quit. Screens glow. Headlines glare. Opinions shout. The heart pulls the covers over its head and hopes the storm will pass, yet the mind keeps humming—what if, what if, what if? Maybe that’s you today. You came to church with a smile that says "I’m fine," but ...read more

    Friend, allow God to move on your behalf; silence should be the ‘treasure’ that we need to possess!

    Bridle your tongue! James 3:2”We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.” We have a clear challenge for us in this scripture: “Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect!.” ...read more
