    Contributed by Jon Miller on Apr 28, 2006
    based on 44 ratings
     | 9,974 views

    God calls us to forgive.

    Christianity has often been referred to as a crutch for the week. Have you ever heard that. I have a lot of problems with that statement. Mainly because I think that life – at some level was much simplier – before I was a Christian. In my opinion live would be easier – if I were NOT be a ...read more

    We’ve all heard the question, Who is my neighbor? But no one ask the question, ’Who is my enemy?’ Inside you will find out the answer to this question and may be surprised just who our real enemy is.

    WHO IS YOUR ENEMY? ROMANS 12:14-21 Pastor Ryan Akers Warrenton Wesleyan Church Romans 12:14-21: 14Ask God to bless everyone who mistreats you. Ask him to bless them and not to curse them. 15When others are happy, be happy with them, and when they are sad, be sad. 16Be friendly with everyone. Don’t ...read more

    We come to a feast at which our Lord Jesus Christ is present. Let us find joy in our sorrow for sin’s forgiven and enter into His rest.

    The need for forgiveness

    Intro: We talked last week about Colossians 3:1 - setting our minds on heavenly things. Yet, so often we focus on things on the earth. We are slow to do that which we know is right. One of the areas we struggle is in the area of offering forgiveness. Is there anyone you hold a grudge ...read more

    based on 45 ratings
     | 6,578 views

    The desire for revenge and justice is part of being in God’s image. But, because sin corrupts us, and because our lives are intended to center around God, we must defer revenge (and sometimes justice) to Him.

    Everything You Wanted to Know About Revenge But Never Thought You’d Hear in Church (Romans 12:14, 17-21) 1. Today’s sermon has little to do with the subject of forgiveness. 2. The Bible is clear that forgiveness is crucial to the Christian life; it is the hallmark of our faith. 3. Not long ...read more

    The three stages to forgiving our brother from Christ’s parable of the unmerciful servant.

    Christ’s "Parable of the Unmerciful Servant" is preceeded by a succinct set of guidelines on what to do when a brother sins against you. (Matthew 18:15-17) 1.

     | 6,903 views

    This is a revamp of a 1997 message. Jesus shares with us insights as to how to become a forgiving person. I do not remember where I got the wording for the 5 point outline.

    INTRODUCTION • A man lay on his deathbed, harassed by fear because he had harbored hatred against another. He sent for the individual with whom he had had disagreement years before; he then made overtures of peace. The two of them shook hands in friendship. But as the visitor left the room, the ...read more
