    Remembrance Sunday, 1989: For us to see the glory of God in the face of death means that we have to move some obstacles and we have to live into the bitterness of what might have been; but then the great "Come Forth" can be heard.

    At Easter it was not hard to think and to sing of the glory of God, was it? Not hard at all to imagine that God’s in His heaven, all’s right with the world. Triumphant music played, pronouncements came forth about victory and power and honor to our God. It was not hard at Easter to dwell on the ...read more

    Being as sure of your salvation as we are of death itself.

    The raising of Lazarus John 11: 17-36 I think people have a hard time relating to the fact that Lazarus died and then was raised four days later simply because most people are unfamiliar with the concept of death in our society let alone a resurrection. There was a ...read more

    Lazarus was raised from the dead by the power of God. Likewise all that believe in Christ have been given a new life. They have been lifted out of the graveyard of sin and sorrow. Jesus said, “Loose him and let him go.” It means that he could not go unles

    LIBERTY WITHOUT FREEDOM Dr. D. K. Olukoya In John 11, we see one of the most interesting stories in the Bible. A friend of Jesus had been sick.

    Do We Stink? (Story Of Lazarus)

    based on 5 ratings
     | 12,519 views

    Christians can stink it up just like anyone else. And being around a Christian who is full of pride, anger, and self-righteousness has a pretty bad stink to it. But there is a way to get rid of that smell. There’s a way out of the tomb.

    August 10, 2008 – Do We Stink? The story of Lazarus. (Jesus is our Life) Smell, just one of our five senses; but a very powerful one. Smells can remind us of many things. Think of these smells; fresh baked bread, barbecued beef, apple pie, cut flowers, cut grass, ocean breezes, just bathed ...read more

    The Discipline Of Delay

    Contributed by Mark Wood on Jan 13, 2007
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,503 views

    Dr. Wood used this sermon to inform the congregation that often God uses delay in order to discipline us or steer us in the direction that He intends for the good of His kingdom.

    John 11:1–46 INTRODUCTION: Too often, we worry when we should wait, and we resist when we should resign. Often God’s delays are explained in that God wishes to teach us our need of patience (see Hebrews 10:36). In our text, Lazarus was on his deathbed and yet Jesus delayed (see vv. 1–6). ...read more

    This picture, much less this statement, surprises a lot of people. Some people think a deity ought to behave differently. Gods, so the popular image goes, sit far off, throw lightning bolts, or send angels. What kind of god would get so close to his su

    Jesus is on the way to a funeral. And He is late. At least in the minds of the mourners He is late. I have a friend, colleague of mine, pastor Edy who is always late.
