Don’t Miss Christmas Series

Contributed by James Crain on Dec 14, 2007

This message describes those prepared for Christ’s coming and those who were not. The religious crowd is indifferent. The leaders are worried. A widow is watching and an old man is waiting. Magi are wandering and worshipping. Which one describes you?

Don’t miss Christmas (portions of this sermon are borrowed from illustrations and sermons on Sermon Central) Christmas time is a time filled with traditions.

Take A Step Of Faith Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 27, 2022

We find The Children of Israel on the edge of the promise land. They had been wandering in the wilderness the past forty years. But to possess the Promised Land they must cross the Jordan River at flood stage. Everything was about to change with this step of faith.

I was eight years old and very surprised that my parents were telling me I would be staying up past my bedtime, but even more surprising is why I will miss my bedtime. The reason was to watch TV. I remember what I saw on TV that night. It was July 20, 1969 and I was watching Neil Armstrong live ...read more

This message today will be in 4 sections and they will be - The “wandering stars” or “comets”; “The Book of Enoch”; “The Second Coming”; “the ungodly”. The ground covered will be most interesting though it is so diverse. This account so relevant to us right now.

Now Is The Time

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jul 23, 2017

Israel had wandered from God, even though He sought them to return. He wanted to bless them, but they had to meet God's conditions. The church has much potential, but we too must return to the Lord.

Now is the Time Hosea 10:12 Over the past few weeks we have considered the condition of Israel and her need for repentance. God loved His people and desired to have a fulfilling relationship with them. Unfortunately they sought the ways of the world and the desires of the flesh while neglecting ...read more

You Need Not Fear, God Is With You

Contributed by Ezekiel Ette on Oct 15, 2018

In our darkest night, when situations border on the shades of death, in our darkest hour when all help and comfort seems to flee, it is comforting to know that our weary and wandering spirit finds solace in the God of our salvation.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Sermon # 26 - Be Grateful - Don't Grumble Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 15, 2024

Jonah’s disobedience and rebellion stemmed from an ungrateful heart. The Israelites too had to wander in the wilderness because of their constant grumbling and lack of thankfulness. Let’s learn to set aside all grumbling and replace it with a thankful heart.

We read in Jonah 3:1-3, “Then the LORD spoke his word to Jonah a second time. He said, "Leave at once for the important city, Nineveh. Announce to the people the message I have given you." Jonah immediately went to Nineveh as the LORD told him. Nineveh was a very large city. It took three ...read more

Genesis 25:23-34 - Does God Have Favourites? Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Aug 31, 2011

Isaac and Rebekah had favourite sons, but what about GOD! Does He have FAVOURITES? In Romans 9:13 (NASB) God says "JACOB I LOVED, BUT ESAU I HATED."

Genesis 25:23-34 - DOES GOD HAVE FAVOURITES? From birth ESAU has thick red hair over his body. Esau means "Hairy". His twin brother JACOB has an unfortunate name too. It means "to defraud, deceive, to displace". His name carries the idea of displacing someone, to replace or unseat someone. As ...read more

How Great Is Our God?

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Jan 28, 2015

Even though God is Great, Wonderful, Sovereign and All Powerful, He is still the ‘Great I AM,’ the same God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, who left His glory and became flesh through Christ to save us!

To Desire A Better Country

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 23, 2008

Funeral service for Anne Tlholakae, diplomat of the Embassy of South Africa. All of us desire a better country; that journey begins with faith. As Biblical wanderers sought that better country but died in a foreign land, so Anne sought and found Christ

The desire for a better country goes deep in the human heart. The desire for something more, something finer, than what our ancestors left us is an aspiration that transcends all boundaries. Just as here in the United States we celebrate those markers in our history that made us a greater nation, ...read more

Holiness And Unconditional Eternal Security Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Feb 20, 2021

Is it possible for a person who is born again and mature in Christ to take his eyes off of the Savior and wander so far away from the faith that he would reject and disown Christ? And, if it is possible what would be the eternal consequences?
