    The Gift Of The Holy Spirit Series

    Contributed by Bill Walker on Feb 25, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 20,817 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

    Is The Holy Ghost A Gentleman? Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,052 views

    Does the Holy Spirit act contrary to our will? Is He just the suggester-in-chief?

    Is the Holy Ghost a Gentleman? Acts 5:1-11 I don’t know how often I have heard that the Holy Ghost is a gentleman. It is often assumed that the Holy Ghost will not force His way on anyone. I use the older term Holy Ghost rather than the newer use of the Holy spirit because “ghost” comes from the ...read more

    Holy. Brothers. Servants.

    Contributed by Todd Catteau on Jan 28, 2022
     | 1,425 views

    This sermon examines three words used in the New Testament as designations of followers of Christ and how they define the believer even today.

    HOLY ONES. BROTHERS. SERVANTS. - WORDS THAT DEFINE US It’s not unusual for a group of people who share somethings in common to be given some designation. People who live north of the Mason-Dixon line are “Yankees” In the 60’s and 70’s a subculture develop – long hair, tye dye, peace signs - we ...read more

    “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory.” When we encounter the holiness of God our lives are transformed.

    Encountering The Holiness of God Isaiah 6:1-8 Introduction “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory.” When we encounter the holiness of God our lives are transformed.

    God Is Holy Different Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Nov 8, 2021
     | 3,089 views

    The aim of this sermon is to help us to capture a vision of God's holiness so that we realize that we must take God's holiness as seriously as God does and to strive to be holy like God is.

    A. One day Charlie Brown and Lucy and Linus were lying on the ground, looking up at the sky. 1. Lucy says, “Aren’t the clouds beautiful? They look like big balls of cotton. I could just lie here all day and watch them drift by.” 2. Then Lucy says, “If you use your imagination, you can see lots of ...read more

    In Psalm 96, the Psalmist gives four commands and backs up each command with a reason for their obedience. Psalm 96:1-13 shows us the coming of the Lord to rule as king over all the earth.

    Scripture Today is the Third Sunday of Advent in 2021. We continue in our sermon series, “Christ’s Advent in the Psalms.” On this Third Sunday of Advent, I want to examine Psalm 96. You may recall in our study of the life of King David that after he had been anointed king over Judah and Israel, ...read more

    In a nutshell, what is holiness theology?

    The Holy Name Of Jesus Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 1, 2022
     | 1,548 views

    The name of God and his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, is so often abused in our culture, that we must in this new year treat that Name with respect and honor.

    On January 1, Moses tells the people how Aaron and his following high priests should bless them. The strange phrase, “so shall they place my name upon the people of Israel” is part of the direction. In Hebrew, the word “name” (hashem) stands for the person and the person’s power and authority.

    The Spirit Of Holy Warfare

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,198 views

    Today, we consider holy warfare. For this I will direct you to a famous story that William Booth recounts, and is commonly referred to as “What will you do?”

    “You must fight devils, lies, fleshly indulgences, hardships, disappointments, and everything that sets itself up against God, or that is apposed to the living of a holy life, or which threatens the damnation of man. At all risks and consequences, you must fight for God and the salvation of souls.” ...read more

    The Spirit Of Divine Holiness

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 27, 2021

    Divine holiness is that chief nature which God himself is. Particularly, God the Father. Divine holiness is who God is, fundamentally.

    “If borne on a burning seraph’s wings I could rise to the Heaven of Heavens, and, like it’s holy inhabitants be allowed to enter the holy of holies where Jehovah especially manifests his glory; and if, prostrate before that Throne, with all reverence I should ask the question: “What is the first ...read more

    Holy Wednesday And Jesus Series

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Mar 31, 2021
     | 2,805 views

    The Holy Wednesday draws more closer to the love of God. His love endures forever. The understanding of the world about Christ and his kingdom is entirely different from the life and teachings of Christ. Glory is not on the throne but on the sacrifice of life.

    Text: John 12:23-33 Theme: Produce Many Seeds Introduction: On this Holy Wednesday, let us meditate on the discourses of Jesus Christ through the text of John 12:23-33. He is a God of the universe. But has come on the earth to take care of our lives. The hour has come to prove his call and his ...read more

    Experiencing The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Scott Maze on May 18, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,570 views

    Life demands an energy from you that is not IN you. We call this “burn out.” In order to truly navigate all that life throws at you, you need a power not from within you but from the outside. This is why you need the outside power of the Holy Spirit.

    I invite you to turn to Acts 2 as we return back to our study in Acts after some time away. This morning, I want to speak to you about “Experiencing on the Holy Spirit.” To begin 2018, we are going to focus on the Holy Spirit. Yet, many of us think of God the Father and we speak of Jesus Christ ...read more

    Holy Ghost Power

     | 8,918 views

    There's only one power that can deliver, transform, and empower: the Holy Spirit! If we would win this nation, we must go back to God's original plan. The church will never be the church without this power!

    The Filling Of The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 24, 2021
     | 4,218 views

    Being controlled by the Spirit is not a dramatic or decisive one-time experience but it’s a daily, ongoing habit. There’s a kind of fullness of the Spirit that comes just simply obeying God and using the means of grace: Bible study, and prayer, and fellowship, obeying his will, etc.

    Today, I want to answer this question, “How can I tell if the Holy Spirit is controlling me?” We are not alone in asking this question as the renowned theologian Jonathan Edwards addressed the questions in his work, Religious Affections. In the book, Edwards moves through twelve “uncertain signs” ...read more
