    Signing Your Own Declaration Of Independence

    Contributed by Bruce Willis on Jun 22, 2007
    based on 26 ratings
     | 3,938 views

    This sermon seeks to reveal just how we operate in independence because we in essence signed our own Declaration of Independence like Adam and Eve did in the Garden of Eden.

    Today, 230 years ago 13 Colonies signed the Declaration of Independence and a nation was born. The second paragraph of what they signed says, “We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among ...read more

    Much of our lives are spent worrying about the future and what might happen. Many times we worry more about possibilities than probabilities. Jesus encourages us to pay attention to His work in the world around us and gives us tools to fight fear.

In the article it says: "We pride ourselves on being the only species that understands the concept of risk, yet we have a ...read more

    Craving Evil And The Lottery

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Oct 12, 2002
    based on 50 ratings
     | 3,910 views

    Israel’s history helps us understand the dangers of sinful patterns today. Craving evil is a root that bears bad fruit. Only the cross can deliver us.

    Bill Cosby once said, “I’m proud to be an American, because an American can eat anything on the face of this earth, as long as he has two pieces of bread.” As Paul approaches eating meat offered to idols here in chapter 10, he gets a running start by pointing to ancient Israel’s history. For our ...read more

    When The Walls Come Tumblin' Down

    Contributed by Deborah Westbrook on Mar 13, 2009
    based on 11 ratings
     | 10,830 views

    Jesus anger wasn’t about selling things; it was about the evil vendors preying upon the innocent. When barriers go up relationship is broken.

    John 2:13-22 When the Tables Come Tumbling Down I would hazard a guess that when most of us think of Jesus, we picture the soft spoken, peace loving, gentle as a lamb, Savior. Always smiling, always patient, always kind. There is no doubt that Christ had a side of Him ...read more
