    Jesus reverses people's fortunes. We're shocked that God loves us, has wonderful plans for our insignificant lives,and isn't limited by the options that limit us. In one minute, everything in this man's life changed. God wants to do it for you!

    GOD OF THE UNEXPECTED John 5:1-9, 14-15 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. David, a second-grader, was bumped while getting on the school bus & suffered a two-inch cut on his cheek. 2.

    "Do you want to be healed?" asked Jesus. Silly question. Doesn't every crippled or sick person?

    John 5:1-5-After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches. In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the ...read more

    Some churches suffer from a defeated attitude when Jesus calls us to take simple steps, not giant steps. We aren't on an escalator, but must move our legs to climb the stairs set before us.

    Attended a confernece on recognizing, halting, and preenting decline in the local church this past Saturday. In reading the foreword to the book "Reaching the summit" by George L. Yates, the illustration of the lame man at the pool of Bethsaida is used to demonstrate the attitude of some churches ...read more

    Jesus claimed to be equal with God in John and this sermon is one that is interactive and creative to engage the audience and draw them deeper. I put together a power point keynote presentation, handouts and a mini devotional for the week after the teach

    John 5:16-47 (Order some foam fake stones for this visual illustration) Good evening, My name is Matthew Rings I have been in youth ministry for 19 years now and I’m used to speaking to teenagers, so if I say anything blasphemous I want you to feel free to stone me.

     | 8,660 views

    Too often in life, we find it easier to complain and wallow in our self pity, than to accept healing from Christ.

    Hopeless and Helpless? June 2, 2013 John 5:1-14 Have you ever felt hopeless — helpless — at the end of your proverbial rope? That’s a loaded question, because we’ve all been there. In one way, or many ways, we’ve been there. When we’re there, we have options, ...read more

    Hopeless and Helpless? June 9, 2013 John 5:2-8 I believe one of the hardest, most difficult things for most people --- is to ask for help. We want to be independent. In fact, we fight for our independence. Yet, at the same time, once some people have accepted help, they get stuck in a place ...read more

    Superman might be good enough to save a virtual world. But we need a real Savior to save us from the real one.

    Meet the Real Superman John 5:16-30 Introduction Two weeks ago, we talked about Jesus healing the sick man who had been sick for 38 years on the Sabbath day. To the Pharisees, this seemed to be a gross violation of the Law of Moses. In fact, the Old Testament forbid the carrying of a burden on ...read more

    Snake Handling And Sabbath Keeping Series

     | 4,398 views

    John the Baptist called the Jewish leaders, snakes. Today the Jews accuse Jesus of breaking the Sabbath by healing a paralytic man at what was probably a Temple to the Greek snake god of healing named Asclepius

    Introduction Last week we finished up the double story of the Samaritan woman, and Jesus teaching the disciples who were on a save Jesus mission to a Samaritan village to get food. Perhaps it was the same village that the Samaritan woman had returned to tell the elders about Jesus. If so, they ...read more

    Jesus very specifically knew that this man had been lying there for 38 long years! He knew! I felt a massive wave of relief crash over me, when I read these words!

    How long? John 5:6”When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, "Do you want to be made well?" Observe the words, ‘Jesus knew that he already had been in that condition a long time!’ I am speaking to someone ...read more

    How Long Has It Been

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Oct 18, 2016
     | 6,580 views

    This sermon is about living a long time with issues and problems without asking God to intervene on our behalf. This sermon points us to the question of 1. Do we want to be healed 2. How long has it been since you reached out to Jesus.

    I reference these two scriptures and paraphrase the stories John 5:1-9 Mark 5:25 - 34 I. Both have been Sick a Long Time ( 38yrs & 12 yrs) 1. Two very different people with a similar situation 2. They aren¡¦t the only ones sick 3. They both have been trying to get better they want a ...read more

    Everything that God has and will do for you is waiting on the other side of this one question: Wilt thou be made whole?

    Mk 5:25-34 Jn 5:5-6 Wilt thou be made whole? Like this man at the pool of Bethesda and like the woman in our text I know that there are some people here today that have issues.
