    Out Of The Ordinary Series

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Jul 1, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,093 views

    As God in the flesh, Jesus lived an ordinary life in an extraordinary way. We too live extraordinarily in the ordinary because of the Spirit of Christ (or Holy Spirit) who indwells us.

    1. A few weeks ago I made the statement in the sermon that disciples should like Jesus. I want to explore this reality over the next few weeks. I want us to look at some of the key characteristics of Jesus and make application to ourselves. If I am going to follow Jesus that means I am going to ...read more

    I once saw a package of plastic shark teeth that were labled as "genuine imitation shark teeth." I wonder if we aren’t guilty of being genuine imitation Christians at times. As Paul begins his letter he points out that the Colossians were 3D Christians-

    SERIES: JESUS CHRIST IS LORD...SERIOUSLY! SERMON: IS JESUS CHRIST LORD OF THIS CHURCH? Colossians 1:1-8 INTRODUCTION: This church will be what it ought to be when our members become what they should be.

    An old hymn says, “To be like Jesus is my song; To be like Jesus in the throng; To be like Jesus all day long. I want to be like Jesus!” And that is what God wants, too – for us to be like Jesus.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (REVISED - 2016) TEXT: Romans 8:29 (Msg); 2 Corinthians 3:18b (NLT) A few years ago thousands of congregations participated in Rick Warren’s “40 Days of Purpose”.

    Do As I Do

    Perhaps you heard this phrase growing up (and have repeated it to your own kids): 'do as I say, not as I do'. I can swear but if I hear you do it you're in trouble. Contrast that with what we see in the bible and we realize the right thing to be able to say is, 'do as I do'.

    Follow Me 2 Of 2

     | 1,172 views

    In a previous sermon I preached on the importance of following the right people.

    When Jesus was here on earth He stated on one occasion, "...FOLLOW ME, and I will make you fishers of men." It is interesting that the Bible not only records that He told these men to follow Him, but also it records that they were smart enough to obey. Look at Matt. 4:20, it states, ...read more
