    What we mean by faith is not what Jesus means by faith in Jn 3:16

    Civic Service - New Romney 11-06-2006 John 3:1-17: You must be born again Story: An atheist was sitting under a tree one day smugly thinking: "God, I know you don’t exist but it you did you must really be stupid.

    Being Born From Above

    Being "born again" and being "born from above" are different sides of the same coin. Christ Jesus says, we cannot enter the kingdom of God without a dramatic, spiritual change. Putting it another way, we have to be born of the spirit from above.

    Being Born From Above – John 3: 1 - 17 Intro: 3 men died and were standing at the pearly gates. “What have you done to deserve heaven?” asked Peter. The 1st man, a police officer, said, “I enforced the law and fought crime.” Peter said, “OK, go on in.” The 2nd was a wealthy man who said, “I ...read more

    We change our citizenship to the kingdom of God through confession, repentance, faith, receiving, going public, and following Jesus.

    The Secret Message of Jesus June 25, 2006 Entering the Kingdom John 3:1-21 I’ve been speaking over this last month about Jesus’ message – the Message about the Kingdom of God. Jesus taught us that the Kingdom of God is not something that will only happen in the future, but the Kingdom is ...read more

    Jesus tells Nicodemus of the new birth.

    If you’ve ever taught a class, there is one kind of student that can absolutely drive you crazy. And it seems like there’s one in every crowd. That’s the person who has an answer for everything. I got a kick out of a couple of the kids during the youth rally who were like that. In the very ...read more

    Listen To Love

    Contributed by Bobby Bodenhamer on Dec 27, 2008
     | 3,424 views

    This message aims through Scriptural interpretation, illustration and a communication model to inform the listener to "listen" with a framework of love and care.

    LISTEN TO LOVE Less talk, more communication "For the measure you measure with will be measured back to you" (Luke 6:38) 1. How hard is it to find someone who will really listen to you? • Those of us who have identified with Jesus the Christ, have been taught a very special kind of love, which ...read more

    The Real Life

    Real life is a personal relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

    Text: “For whoever finds me finds life, and obtains favor from the LORD” (Proverbs 8:35). How would you explain life? Would you say that life is the time between your birth and your death? Would you say life is just your physical existence? You might quote Genesis 2:7 which says, “And the ...read more

    New Birth Pt 1 Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,920 views

    This sermon explains why Jesus says we all must be "born again". It also goes into an explanation of what is a sacrament and why we baptize. This sermon is based upon John Wesley’s sermon #45 by the same name preached in 1760.

    First, a little humor: A preacher once heard about another preacher who gained notoriety by preaching the world’s longest sermon. He felt led to preach some kind of notable sermon, too, and get in the record books. But he didn’t want to bore people with a long sermon. So he decided he would ...read more

    We’ve all heard and used the phrase "Born Again" but just exactly what does that mean?

    Born Again Born Again! What a neat, overused, misused, abused, redundant, nonmeaningful term. If you google “Born Again Celebrities” you get a wide range of folks. Some like Amy Grant and Johnny Cash you might suspect, others like Mr. T I had forgotten about. I had heard that Jane Fonda had ...read more

    This sermon looks at Nicodemus’ ignorance as a religious leader as a springboard for teaching the necessity of the new birth.

    Introduction: One of my favourite stories is of a new pastor was asked to teach a boys class in the absence of their regular Sunday School teacher. He decided at the outset to see what the boys knew and so he asked little Johnny during Bible class who broke down the walls of Jericho. Little Johnny ...read more

    This is the 4th sermon in a series of messages taken from John’s gospel. From Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus, we notice unasked questions Jesus answered.

    John’s Gospel #4 Unasked Questions CHCC: January 27, 2008 John 3:1-21 INTRODUCTION: VIDEO John 3:16 is the central truth of life captured in 25 simple words.

    Alive Beyond This Life Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 13, 2008
    based on 8 ratings
     | 3,675 views

    God wants to give us life beyond this life, for God is love and live is never diminished. It is not something we attain by knowledge, but by trust. Two sweatshirts are pulled on and off to illustrate two ways of thinking about life beyond this life.

    God is love. So the Bible says, and that is, in a sense, all we need to know. God is love; and just as when you love someone you do not abandon them, so also the love of God, richer far than tongue or pen can ever tell, reaches to the highest height and to the lowest hell, and keeps on going ...read more
