    The Unconditonal Love Of God

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,078 views

    The love of God is unconditional. We cannot act like Nicodemus and come to Jesus in the night. We must surrender our whole life to Him.

    The unconditional love of God John 3:1-22 Introduction- Text: John 3:1-22 Read People live today by falling in and out of love. There is no commitment. They do not love “Till death do us part”. They love “till I find someone better”. True love is a ...read more

    How do we enter the Kingdom? Many who think they know, do not know.

    The story of Nicodemus is one of the best known stories of the Bible, and it comes to a close with one of the most often quoted passages in the Bible, John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” ...read more

    Art Thou A Master Of Israel, And Knowest Not These Things? Series

    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

    Belief That Is Series

    How can these things be? That was the question Nicodemus asked Jesus in our passage today. Do you ever find yourself asking that question?

    A few weeks ago, when we looked at 2:23-25, I titled the sermon, “Belief That Isn’t.” This morning, I’m using the title, “Belief That Is.” Before John introduced us to the person of Nicodemus in chapter 3, he took just a few verses to describe the vast majority of people who were around Jesus at ...read more

    Jesus won’t make you a better man - he’ll make you a new one.

    I apologize this morning if you hear me coughing a bit – I’ve been suffering from some sort of the plague. Of course, I haven’t suffered enough to go to the doctor – I am, after all, a guy. I’d like to believe that my suffering has a purpose. That it makes me more of a man. And, when it comes to ...read more

    This message examines the meeting between Jesus and Nicodemus.

    What does it mean to be a disciple? Wait a second; let me be a little bolder with my question. Are you a follower of Jesus? I believe that the majority of us would answer that question in a way that affirms that we do indeed follow Jesus. But I still have to ask; are you really a disciple? Is there ...read more

    Exercise Your Curiosity Correctly 1) The curiosity of unbelief questions God’s ways 2) The curiosity of faith accepts God’s answers

    Curiosity killed the cat. At least that’s what people say when you’re asking questions they aren’t comfortable answering. Is curiosity a bad thing then? Not necessarily. Thanks to curious people and their inventions we have life-saving medicines and can travel from here to the other side of the ...read more

    Born again??? What on earth does that mean?

    John 3:1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a member of the Jewish ruling council. 2 He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the miraculous signs you are doing if God were not with him." 3 In reply ...read more

    In the cover of night, hood over his head, Nick sneaks out to rendezvous with Jesus. What do we learn from this meeting between Jesus and Nicodemus?

    NICK-AT-NIGHT JOHN 3:1-21 It’s nighttime. Darkness has fallen like a blanket on the city. A thick fog hangs in the air. A man nervously glances at his watch. 6:30pm. It’s safe to leave now.

    To The Uptight: Son Of Man Series

     | 3,778 views

    Jesus challenged Nicodemus and us because He challenges our pride and status, or because we think that all we have done is now useless. The human Jesus shows us how to live without being uptight.

    Two men standing in a garden to talk; so much alike and yet so different. Two men, with much on their minds, with eternal issues at stake, and yet with very human concerns too. Two men, very different and yet brothers, much the same. Two men standing in a garden to take one another’s measure. ...read more

    Where do you find those things that change your life? Are we willing to hear them from the most likely places? If so then we need to listen to the Lord Jesus because he meets us in the very midst of our deepest needs.

    I don’t know if you’ve heard of Scott Ginsburg but he is known for something very strange. As of today he has worn a "Hello my name is" tag for 3140 days. On one occasion he had given a speech to an employee group in South Dakota and told how he started wearing the name tag. "On that day, I exited ...read more
