    A Messenger From God Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Oct 11, 2021
     | 2,355 views

    Why should anyone pay attention to Paul's letter to the Romans? Paul answers these questions decisively with regard to who He was, who Jesus uniquely was declared to be, and the grace God has provided to all men who will believe in HIm

    As many of you know, I came to saving faith in Christ as an older teenager, and I began reading my Bible regularly, even then. One evening my dad poked his head into the room while I was reading my Bible. Now my dad was a rank pagan, but he said something interesting. He said, “Someday, I’m ...read more

    What keeps you bound in a tomb of death?

    "What Keeps You from Really Living?" John 11:1-7, 17-44 Several years ago there was a headline in a Toronto Newspaper which read: "Dead Man Walks into His Own Funeral." Apparently, Dan Squires had walked off his job as a welder without telling anyone where he was going. He had been missing ...read more

    Like Lazarus we sometimes become dead spiritually and must rely on Christ to free us from the death and bondage of the world

    This is a familiar story that we all know, Jesus raising His friend Lazerus from the dead. Some of us have learned our first Bible verse from this text; Jesus Wept. As Jesus reaches Bethany his friend Lazarus has been in the tomb four days now. People are still mourning and as Jesus is arriving ...read more

    A short sermon concerning Jesus' tears, written for All Saints Sunday.

    I’m a Saints fan, and sometimes I like to turn down the sound on the TV and turn up the sound on the radio, and listen to the radio broadcast from the Saints broadcasting network. It makes for a much more fan friendly broadcast to listen to the “home” team announcers on game day. ...read more

    There should be no reason for us to be bound and closed behind a bolder in a tomb, dressed in Burial Clothes, unless we are spiritually dead. The question is this: How do I get rid of those burial clothes?

    INTRODUCTION Everyone got dressed this morning - Thankfully But it Takes time to get dressed – To choose what we are going to wear. Also the Clothes we wear reflects who we are. Some of us wear the clothes of our Favorite sports team. We get people who wears the Stormers jersey. We ...read more

    Lazarus, a good friend of Jesus, was dead. Jesus had been notified to come quickly by Lazarus’ sisters, Mary and Martha, but he didn’t seem to get in a hurry.

    John 11:39-11:40 FOUR DAYS LATE AND STILL ON TIME John 11:39-40, "Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.

    The power of God, when displayed, can cause the deepest doubt to erase. It can bring to life even the most bitter of hearts; cause faith to be birthed. When Lazarus was raised, how do you think it grew the Disciples faith? How about yours?

    Life over Death John 11:1-44 Several promises in today’s passage … excellent faith builder Read John 11:1-44 / Pray Point 1 - Jesus is our Friend (1-16) Jesus receives word that Lazarus is sick; intimacy of relationship in v3 But, Jesus gives a promise (v4); shows His thinking is far ...read more

    Chapter 11 shows us 4 things that Jesus is. He is our: Friend, Life, Power, and Substitute. How we respond to Him shows others how we truly feel about Him.

    It's easy to see a Lazarus Picture in the world: But I believe The Holy Spirit would have us look at that story again and we might Just see not Just a Lazarus world (But a Lazarus Church).

    I love the story of Lazarus: I believe that Lazarus and his situation or condition and his resurrection is so powerful because it reminds us, “that it's not over till God says it's over” It reminds us that God can do anything It reminds us that God works in the dark It reminds us that ...read more

    God's the most punctual person in the universe! The time of a sunrise can be calculated a thousand years from now to a milli-second! How strange and contradictory it is then, to find God being late.

    4 DAYS LATE, BUT RIGHT ON TIME! Jn. 11:1-7,11-15,39-40. INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Super Granny 1. An elderly lady after shopping, returned to her car and found 4 young men in the act of leaving with her car.

    When have you faced an obstacle that seemed impossible? Jesus raising Lazarus back to life teaches us to 1) Trust God's timing, 2) Trust God's heart, and 3) Trust God's might.

    Dead Man Walking John 11:1-45 March 29, 2020 I got my sermon title from that phrase used to describe someone from Death Row heading to their execution. They are called “Dead Man Walking.” It’s an eerie title for someone who is moving invariably toward their death. However, in today’s ...read more

    How would we live our lives today if we could live forever? Immortality is our reality in Christ. Let’s examine the death and resurrection of Lazarus and the One who dares to call himself “the resurrection and the life” in John 11:1-45.

    Let’s look at a couple of ways to examine a Bible passage: solving some dilemmas and finding the Good News. Let’s examine the death of Lazarus, and Jesus’ intervention, the One who dares to call Himself “the resurrection and the life” in John 11:1-45. 1. What are some Dilemmas in the ...read more

    Like Jesus, Lazarus would die and rise again. Jesus knew the reason for his sickness, and he knew the outcome. But still, he wept. Why?

    Eyes of Jesus In one of her short stories, writer Annie Dillard has a scene in which a family is sadly gathered at a grave to commit a loved one's body to the earth. At one point, the minister reads the familiar words from I Corinthians 15, "Where, O Death, is thy sting?" Upon ...read more

    After Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead there was quite a stir in Jerusalem. The Chief Priests and Pharisees called a meeting of the ruling council and asked, "What do we do now?" How about today? How do we answer the covid-19 crisis?

    The Question Everyone Is Asking Text: John 11:45-57 Many of the Jews therefore, who had come with Mary and had seen what he did, believed in him, 46 but some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done. 47 So the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered the council ...read more
