  • The Prophecy In The Upper Room, Part 2

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 19, 2022
     | 1,203 views

    The Lord Jesus gave a promise to His disciples and those who would come to Him for salvation that He would return for them (John 14:1-3). These verses are considered to be His teaching on the "Rapture". Are we correct in this interpretation? We will look at the evidence.

    On the night before He was to undergo the trial of the crucifixion and the redemptive work it ensued on behalf of fallen humanity, Jesus had given the disciples the assurance that even though He would soon leave them, He also promised that He would return and "receive you to Myself, that ...read more

  • "is God's Church For Everyone?"

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Sep 27, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,423 views

    A sermon about God's inclusion in this period of polarization and division.

    “Is God’s Church for Everyone?” Acts 8:26-40 When I was a brand-new Christian a friend of mine and I were doing some street witnessing. What I mean by that is we were meeting strangers on the street and asking them if they knew Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We were 18 years old and ...read more

  • Following Jesus, My Decision For Baptism Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 14, 2022
     | 2,112 views

    Philip was doing a great work in Samaria when the Holy Spirit sent him on what seemed a strange mission: go to Gaza, a desert region, and then get into a chariot. He obeyed, an Ethiopian official believed, and followed the Lord in baptism.

    Foreword: Full disclosure, I am a Southern Baptist and present this message from that perspective. Water baptism is part of the Great Commission (Matthew 28, Mark 16, e.g.) and is mentioned in connection with belief and with becoming a disciple. It is readily admitted there are others who hold ...read more

  • Stop The Chariot

    The harvest is ready but the laborers are few! We haven't much time left to bring the lost sheep into the Lord's fold. If we truly love him, we should be about the Father's business.

    How many of you love St. Peter jokes? Here is one which I hope ties into our message for this morning. It goes like this: A man arrives at the gates of heaven. St. Peter asks, "Denomination?" The man says, "Methodist." St. Peter looks down his list, and says, "Go to ...read more

  • Philip And The Eunuch

    Contributed by Gary Holt on Apr 27, 2024
     | 1,811 views

    Philip shared Jesus with an important man who was reading Isaiah 53. God sent Philip to share the gospel and after hearing about Jesus the eunuch wanted to be baptised immediately.

    CREDIT: The opening illustration is from a Jeff Strite sermon. The bulk of the sermon has been edited from https://executableoutlines.com/ by Mark A. Copeland. I am not claiming originality on this sermon. Mark A. Copelands sermon is 80% of this sermon. It was just so good I wanted to share it ...read more

  • Philip And The Ethiopian Eunuch – Excluded? Series

    Contributed by Roberta Karchner on May 1, 2024
     | 1,356 views

    This series is about feeling included. The Ethiopian Eunuch was excluded from the temple for three reasons. He was a stranger. He didn't look like them (black skin). He was a Eunuch.

    Scripture: Acts 8:26-40 Since Easter, we have been covering the times Jesus appeared in person to continue to turn the world upside down. To put this passage in context, we need to start with where it is in the account of the early church. It began with everyone hanging out together, all of the ...read more

  • The Work Of An Evangelist

    Contributed by Terry Hovey on May 19, 2023
     | 1,656 views

    The Great Commission is our call to evangelize the world. It applies to every believer, without exception. And if you are a believer, but don’t have the desire to tell others about Jesus...then you are not right with God.

    The Work of an Evangelist Acts 8:26-40 Sitting in his Roman cell, knowing that the time of his death was at hand, the apostle Paul wrote one last letter to his protégé, Timothy, and encouraged him to remain faithful to the very end. He told him to 2Ti 4:5 …be watchful in all things, ...read more

  • It Didn’t Just Happen

    Contributed by John Newton on Jun 4, 2023
     | 1,274 views

    The crucifixion of Jesus was not a random incident: it was part of God’s plan from eternity

    It was a journey of some two thousand kilometers—from Jerusalem all the way back to what is modern-day Sudan. The lone traveler had come to worship at the Temple. And I can only imagine that it was for him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As his horse plodded along, he occupied his time by ...read more

  • A Lesson In Evangelism From Philip And The Ethiopian Eunuch

    Contributed by Paul Green on May 18, 2022
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,209 views

    When Philip introduces the Ethopian Eunuch to Jesus – he does it God’s way. Philip wasn't an Apostle like Peter, a missionary like Paul, or a pastor like Timothy. He was a deacon, a servant of the church, an ordinary, average man who just couldn’t keep God to himself.

    There was a man on a business trip and when he checked in he was given one of the middle seats on the airplane. He was tired and he all he wanted to do was sleep, so he got a little bit irritated when the young girl sat next to him started to ask questions: “Mister, do you brush your teeth?” “Yes,” ...read more

  • Passing Through

    Contributed by Larry Grant on Jun 5, 2022

     | 3,172 views

    Today we look at another Deacon who never identifies himself as a Deacon; We must consider this Evangelist who never identifies himself as a Preacher; the bible says of him only that he was filled with the Holy Ghost and today that he is just passing through!

    Acts 8:35-40 (NKJV) “Passing Through” June 5, 2022 This is not our home, we are just passing through! In John 15, Jesus said that “we are not of the world,” because He chose us out of the world! Peter said we are “strangers and pilgrims!” in this world (1 Peter 2:11). Paul said in ...read more

  • Abundant Grace Series

    Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jul 8, 2022
     | 2,509 views

    This sermon explores the concept of God's abundant grace as seen through the conversion of the Ethiopian by Philip and how God continues to pour out His grace to those who put their faith in Jesus Christ.

    As most of you know, we have been going through a 30-35-week series called The Story. We are getting close to the end of the story. We have been most recently going through the New Testament portion of the story called the book of Acts. As I mentioned a couple times, the book of Acts is a long ...read more

  • He That Winneth Souls Is Wise No. 7

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022
     | 1,128 views

    We want to look again at the importance of following good examples.

    We understand the importance, as Christians, of not following the many bad examples that many lost people display in their lives, but NEW CONVERTS do not hear much, or see much, about following the good examples the Bible tells about and the stories of great Christians through the years have set ...read more

  • The Replacement

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 22, 2022
     | 2,740 views

    Every Christian should live the Christian life in such a way that when he/she dies they will leave behind a legacy that they lived a godly life.

    But it is sad to say that many in our churches when they die, their death will not affect God’s church whatsoever! At their death their name will be removed from the church roll and the church will continue without any interruption whatsoever. But there are others we have in this church when they ...read more

  • Do You Understand What You Are Reading?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 30, 2022
     | 1,863 views

    We read Scripture because we want to know more about God and His plan for us. But do we really understand?

    Thursday of the 3rd week in Easter It is no surprise that whenever someone is reading from the OT during NT times, he is probably reading from an Isaiah scroll. The only time that Jesus gave His disciples an extensive Bible lesson, He began with Moses and then the prophets and asked “was it not ...read more
