The Hard Saying

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 20, 2025

Jesus’ hardest saying reveals revival’s secret: life begins when we feed daily on His presence instead of our pride.

A. WHAT DOESN’T WORK 1. Sitting on a rock by a lake waiting for God to speak. Christianity is a relationship and you learn from God in similar ways that you learn from others. 2.

Oh God, You Devil PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 28, 2025

Following Jesus means embracing His challenging teachings, trusting Him even when it’s hard, and letting His words transform us beyond our comfort and preferences.

Some of the most life-giving words Jesus speaks are also the ones that make us swallow hard. You’ve felt that, haven’t you? You’re reading the Bible in the early hush of morning, coffee cooling by your chair, and a sentence seems to stand up from the page. It has weight. It has heat. It asks ...read more

Contributed by John Kapteyn on Oct 18, 2000

Christ's became man to present the good news to the world. One aspect of this was to affirm who He was and why He came. We too are to be Christ's presence and affirm what we believe.

Peter says "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." 1Pet 2:2,9.

A Work In Progress Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 14, 2001

When the real Jesus is seen, he presents problems -- either he is too difficult for us to accept, or he is offensive to our sloppy ways of doing church, or we are just too tired of churchiness -- but his words of life revive our weariness.

I notice that they’ve revived one of the old-time television shows. We can once again see, “To Tell the Truth”. The idea of “To Tell the Truth” is that three people come out, and they all stand and give a name – the same name. Then someone reads a few sentences about the person who actually has ...read more
