    It’s through Love that we can show Christ in our actions and in our lives. It’s Love that we can lead others to a life in Christ

    Love • In Life I have found there are a lot of things that make me stop and wonder. • I wonder why a speaker who "needs no introduction" --- gets one anyway. • I wonder why, when a preacher says, "In closing..." he doesn’t. • I wonder why people will punish a child for lying • But they will tell ...read more

    What makes a Hero? Jesus is our Biblical example of hero and calls each one of us to become a hero. Traits of Hero - Selfless, Servants heart, Sacrifice. This is a reworking of my highly rated "Greater Love" memorial day message from May 2007

    HEROES Jn 15: 12-13 INTRO WHAT MAKES A HERO WE NEED THEM, LOVE THEM, DO WE UNDERSTAND THEM? LOOKED UP TO, BUT MORE - WHO WERE YOUR HEROES GROWING UP? WHY? BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY DID / ACCOMPLISHED OR WHO THEY ARE - THEIR CHARACTER HOW THEY TREATED YOU WHAT MAKES A HERO? ...read more

    We are not shut out: Jesus includes us by giving us knowledge, by giving us a place in His mission, and by paying the price to see that we are included in the Kingdom.

    A number of years ago I saw a very provocative poster. It was a depiction of the doors of Washington. Nothing more than a series of doors, arranged in rows on the poster, probably twenty or twenty-five, all photographs of various doors in this city. Some of them were beautifully simple doorways ...read more

    The Yield Of Your Life

    We are the branches in His vineyard. God watches over us, and works in our lives, for the purpose of bearing more fruit. Glorifying God is our life’s purpose.

    These were the parting words of Jesus, as He would soon be betrayed, to be judged and crucified. • The disciples will be separated from Him for a while, having been with Him for 3 years. He will return as the resurrected Lord in their lives. They need to stay focus and faithful to Him, to ...read more

    Love Is A Command Series

    Contributed by Paul Green on Oct 30, 2009
    based on 18 ratings
     | 14,339 views

    Jesus said, ’this is my command: Love one another.’ How does that work? It is easy to see how you can obey a command not to lie, or steal or commit murder – but how can you command somebody to love somebody. How is that possible?

    Verse 12: ‘My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you’. Verse 17: ‘This is my command: Love each other’. One of the funniest comedies ever to find it’s way onto our tv screens, arguably, has to be Fawlty Towers. It starred John Cleese as the Torquay hotel owner Basil Fawlty, and ...read more

    How To Dwell In Jesus’ Love Series

    based on 94 ratings
     | 27,005 views

    To be connected to the Vine means that the life of Jesus is flowing in us & through us, & this leads to fruitfulness. Fruitfulness will be the inevitable outcome of an inner spiritual life with Jesus.

    JOHN 15: 7-11 HOW TO ABIDE [DWELL] IN JESUS’ LOVE [John 8: 31-35] We have learned that fruit-bearing is a byproduct of abiding in Christ for as Jesus said, “Apart from Me you can do nothing” (15:5b). Having an inner relationship with Jesus (as a branch is nourished and strengthened by a vine), ...read more

    A biblical definition of the spirit filled life

    1 I am the True Vine, and My Father is the Vinedresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away. And every one that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bring forth more fruit. 3 Now you are clean through the Word, which I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in Me, and I in ...read more

    When Jesus decided we were worth dying for, there were many caught in the crossfire.

    “Worth Dying For” John 15:13 Remembrance Day Service Today is a day that needs little help in terms of explanation or description. The sacrifice of Canadian troops, along with allied nations, fighting for the freedom of the world, is not hard to understand. What is difficult to grasp is the price ...read more

    Psalm 91 - A Conditional Promise? Series

    based on 77 ratings
     | 125,639 views

    No conflicts or predicaments should crush us, as long as we can draw close to God. We have no idea how long the onslaught of trouble might last or how deep the troubled waters may get, but they will pass and we will have ultimate deliverance.

    Psalm 91:1-16 Everyone has favourite verses or chapters of the Bible. Words of promise, words of encouragement, others speak to us about God’s love and mercy towards us. Life is filled with problems, some small and some great and Psalm 91 has been and continues to be a source of strength, hope, ...read more

    At least five things are given to we who abide in Jesus Christ according to his own words here in John 15.

    John 15 In Byron Harvey’s “The True Vine” I found this illustration: (Pass out clusters of grapes to each row and ask that each one take one or two grapes from the cluster as it passes by).

    In Whose Image And Likeness?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 9, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,154 views

    God created us in his own image and likeness, with intellect and free will. He respects our dignity by allowing even bad choices.

    The temptation that humans in an unredeemed state constantly undergo is the temptation to create gods in their own image and likeness. So Zeus, the king of the gods, was created in the image of earthly kings–capricious, selfish, lusty and unfaithful. Dionysius, god of wine and revelry, was a ...read more
