The View From Heaven Series

Contributed by Tim White on Mar 15, 2013

In the battle of spiritual warfare, we are called to be ambassadors of reconciliation.

I was reading blogs this week trying to put together what happened. From what I read, it was in the regional playoff in High School soccer in NC, and was considered by the bloggers one of the most embarrassing events in HS sports. (Bloggers tend to exaggerate, by the way). Apparently one team was ...read more

Easter - The Hope Of Heaven

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Apr 1, 2013

It is God's desire to give man a new life, a living hope and an eternal inheritance in heaven.

We are all searching for something. We are searching for meaning and purpose to life. Some are searching for fun and pleasure, others fame and status. • We look for friends, to give us companionship. We crave for things, to fill our sense of void. We run after money, so that we can get ...read more

Will Everyone Make It To Heaven?

Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Oct 19, 2013

This sermon addresses the false belief that everyone will make it to heaven. I used parts of a sermon outline from sermons of the new testament to write this sermon.

In a 2008 USA Today article it says that in a survey taken the majority of people 65% say eternal life is not exclusively for those who accept Christ. The world view today is that anyone and everyone will be saved no matter who they are, what they do, or who are what they believe in. The ...read more

Fire From Heaven! Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Nov 17, 2013

We cannot afford to be indifferent about God...there are consequences in this life and in the life-to-come.

When I served with the Army’s Air Defense Artillery--both as an instructor at their Branch School, and as a Brigade Chaplain--I used to joke about my role in Air Defense by offering to arrange for fire from Heaven! So you might say this is a fire-and-brimstone sermon! King Ahaziah assumed ...read more

And Heaven Came Down Series

Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Feb 2, 2012

In Jesus the kingdom of God arrived on earth. The world and the lives of people (like Peter, Andrew, James and John) have never been the same. They have received a new purpose and started to follow a different path.

"Knocking On Heaven's Door"

Contributed by David Henderson on Oct 26, 2018

There’s nothing that reveals more about a believer than his/her prayer life. How we approach God of what we’re willing to ask for shows how we view God. It is very similar to how a child will make a request of their father.

PRAYER THAT OPENS DOORS "Knocking on Heaven’s Door" Matthew 7:7-11 Let me start with a question this morning. What is the single biggest prayer request you have ever made? What is the biggest answer you have ever asked God for? • Perhaps it was for healing for yourself or for another family ...read more

Getting Ready For Heaven Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 27, 2019

Be ready! It's a repeated theme in Scripture. But what should I do to get ready for heaven?

(I opened by singing 2 verses of an old hymn "There's A Great Day Coming") “There’s a great day coming, a great day coming. There’s a great day coming by and by. When the saints and the sinners will be parted right and left, Are you ready for that day to come?” CHORUS: Are you ready? ...read more

The Throne Room Of Heaven Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Jul 9, 2015

To find peace In the midst of your tribulation, see the Holy God on His throne and surrender to Him.

Some time ago, I came across a list of statements that describe our lives at times. They're actually restatements of the old Murphy's Law. * Nothing is as easy as it looks. * Everything takes longer than you think. & * If anything can go wrong it will. Sometimes life gets so bad you think * ...read more
