Sermons on How To Go To Heaven:

What Will Heaven Be Like?

Contributed by Troy Borst on Sep 4, 2013

My simplistic description of Heaven does not even come close to Truth, but hopefully it gets you thinking about some questions about Heaven or perhaps reminds you of questions you have always had about it.

WHAT WILL HEAVEN BE LIKE? VARIOUS PASSAGES INTRODUCTION This month we are talking about the question: “You are dead… now what?” The purpose of John and I’s sermons all month long are to answer questions that you may have about what happens after we die… that is the ...read more

Persistent Prayer Series

Contributed by John Hamby on Aug 19, 2002

Now having given the disciples a pattern for prayer, the Lord continues his instruction by telling a story. But why does he give us this parable? In the text we are going to see three principles about prayer.

A Study of the Book of Luke Sermon # 29 “Persistent Prayer” Luke 11: 5-13 Do you ever feel impatient with God? Does He seem late in answering your requests or meeting your needs? Certainly all of us as believer’s have had ...read more

Go! And Pray With Confidence Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on May 2, 2025

Prayer is not merely a religious duty; it is a divine privilege. Through prayer, we commune with the Creator of the universe. Yet, how often do we approach God with hesitation, doubting whether He hears us or will answer our petitions?

Go! And Pray with Confidence 1 John 5:14-15 (NLT): "And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. And since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for." Introduction: The Privilege of ...read more

Show And Listen Series

Contributed by Jason Pettibone on May 18, 2004

When we put together the word meaning ‘good news,’ AND the commandment of the Lord Jesus to ‘go and tell,’ how do we end up feeling like this work is something to be avoided?

Show and Listen (credit to Len Sweet, whose published work helped this pastor immensely in the preparation of this sermon!) Evangelism - # 1 “Hello.” “Hello, may I speak with Jerry Scott?” “This is Jerry.” “Hello, Jerry. Bank of New York has selected you for a no fee.....” “I don’t ...read more

Soul Searching

Contributed by Ron Hicks on Jun 2, 2007

Wouldn’t you agree with me, that it is a great tragedy to sit idle in our little Christian box and let people die in sin and go to Hell without an attempt to rescue them?

SOUL SEARCHING Gen 18:16-33 16 And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way. 17 And the Lord said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do; 18 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a ...read more

How To Become Wise

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Dec 10, 2016

These trained students (these were astrologers) of the stars observed an unexplained phenomenon in the heavens, and somehow interpreted this sign with a change in the way things were. They saw it as a sign of the Messiah’s birth!

How to Become Wise Matthew 2: 1-2, 10-11 Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, 2 saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to ...read more

What Is Really True In The World? Hell, Faith, And Heaven

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 30, 2023

Today, though, the Lord gave me a three-fold message that he wants me to share. First of all, we're going to talk about hell, then we're going to talk about Jesus Christ and the gospel, then we're going to talk about heaven.

If I go to my bank account and say, "well, I don't know what's true" that's not going to work. There will be an amount listed. It's either correct or it isn't. That's how it is with history. That's how it is with science. That's how it is with archaeology. ...read more

Liar And Thief At The Gate Of Heaven Series

Contributed by Bradley Hall on Jul 19, 2002

Despite his past, Jacob encounters God and sees that nothing is the same. God in Christ shows us how to protect ourselves from the devil’s claim that life is ordinary and meaningless.

Last week we established the fact that Jacob was a cheat. After that incident, and before the incident we read of today, we learn that he is a liar and a thief as well. You all know the story of how Jacob masquerades as Esau to obtain his father Issac’s blessing. It is not too much later that ...read more

Fishing In Our Own Pond

Contributed by Steven Chapman on Feb 6, 2007

The call for the disciples to be witnesses in Jerusalem was the call for them to go fishing in their own pond. It remains the call for us to fish our own ponds, to be a witness within the network of relationships God has placed us, to capture the hearts a

The Glory Of God: Show Me Your Glory

Contributed by C Jordan on Apr 25, 2006

There was a day wnen the people of God would go to church, not just to sing songs about God or to hear stories about what God did in the past, but they came to church to meet with God. To see His power and His glory.

THE GLORY OF GOD: I came across this humourous story on the internet recently: Little Johnny had been misbehaving and was sent to his room. He emerged a couple minutes later and informed his mother that he had thought things over and had even said a little prayer. The mother was very happy and ...read more
