  • Do We Have Pigeon Religion?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 3, 2022
     | 3,107 views

    The Bible does NOT say, "the Spirit came on Jesus as a pigeon." Doves have 8 character differences from pigeons. Just as the dove is the symbol of the Holy Spirit, so "pigeon religion" is a counterfeit of the Holy Spirit. Let's seek the Dove!

    DO WE HAVE PIGEON RELIGION? John 1:29-33 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A doctor went out and bought a brand new Ferrari GTO, that can top out at 250 mph. He took it out for a spin and stopped at a red light. 2. An old man on a moped pulled up next to him. He asked, “What kind of car ya got there, ...read more

    We’re looking at a woman who encountered Jesus unexpectedly. At first she thought He was just another Jew, but before long she found herself face to face with God. He offered her the answer to her heart's greatest need -- God's inner presence.

    IF YOU KNEW THE GIFT OF GOD! JOHN 4:10 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Did you hear about the man who had emergency surgery on his hand and lost 3 fingers? The man asked the man if he could still write. 2. The doctor answered, “Maybe, but don’t count on it.” B. TEXT 5 So he came to a town in ...read more

    Jacob had his Jabbok, Abraham had his Mt. Moriah, Paul had his Damascus road and Peter had his encounter with Jesus on the Sea of Galilee's shores. That's where Peter began a new life living solely for Christ.

    WHEN PETER DIED TO SELF Jn. 21:1-8,14-22. INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Agatha Longworth, age 78 and rather deaf, had a tendency to shout when she went to the Catholic confessional. 2.

    A squad of soldiers was sent to arrest Jesus. Instead of arresting Jesus, they were arrested by the wonder of Jesus! Each of us need this experience -- to know the risen Christ, His glory and awesome Person.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,455 views

    Divine life only flows in those people who are in intimate fellowship with Jesus Christ. We must spend quality time at Jesus' feet hearing His word. Like the moon has no light of its own, nor do we, but we can shine bright with the light of the Sun of Righteousness!

    THE VINE AND THE BRANCHES John 15:1-8 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man was speeding down a Texas highway, feeling secure in a column of cars all traveling at the same speed.

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 20, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,077 views

    Often we feel like our resources are inadequate. "There's no way God can use me." But we find that God delights to use weak things because it redirects people to Him. Little is much when God is in it.

    WHAT GOD CAN DO WITH A HAPPY MEAL John 6:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Euphemisms of a low IQ 1. Elevator doesn’t reach the top floor; 2. 2 bubbles shy of a bubble bath; 3. Not playing with a full desk; 4. Few French fries short of a Happy Meal; 5. Light’s on but nobody’s home; 6. No oars ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,384 views

    Jesus is unique. All other religious figures don't give you an Artesian well that will never run dry. Neither do they impart eternal life; not only existence, but an existence with joy and happiness for all eternity.

    We take a detailed look at how to "feed" on Christ. We start with 5 wonderful things about Jesus, then see the necessity of daily feeding on Him, and then observe the two principle ways to do this.

    FEEDING ON THE BREAD OF LIFE JOHN 6:51-58 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: ALL YOU CAN EAT PLACES 1.

    The Holy Spirit is the great engine of the Church. He guides us into all truth, He teaches us and reveals the future to us. He is the key factor for revival in the Church. Let's go to the Comforter and enlist His aid!

     | 10,392 views

    When Jesus cleansed the Temple, it was symbolic of His determination to purify His Church, and, after His coming into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, to purge out the things which defile the temples of our bodies. Sanctification.

    Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 6, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,574 views

    The Lord Jesus intentionally chose a skeptic as one of the 12. Jesus proved beyond any shadow of doubt to the rationalist, Thomas, that He was resurrected from the dead. Thomas died preaching Him in India, because he knew that, "Nailprints don't lie!"

    NAILPRINTS DON’T LIE! John 20:1-8, 24-31 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Gentle Persuasion 1.

    Contributed by John Gaston on May 5, 2021
     | 4,575 views

    This is a rewrite of Glenn Pease's fine message. It talks about many of the un-named people in the Bible who played such big roles in the events of the New Testament. We think of ourselves as nobodys, but that's not what Heaven thinks! You have a lot to give.

    HOW TO BE A SUCCESSFUL NOBODY John 6:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: WHY LIFE IS CONFUSING TO MANY 1. A librarian commented concerning a woman just leaving her desk that she could get more out of a mystery novel than anyone she knew. "How is that?" asked her co-worker. 2. She replied, ...read more

     | 8,364 views

    Sometimes "the wine runs out," i.e., the positives disappear out of our hopes & dreams, out of our marriages, and out of our relationship with God. The wonderful thing is that we don't have to stay that way! Jesus is here to restore our wine!

    WHEN THE WINE RUNS OUT John 2:1-10 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man got a ticket to the Superbowl. He was happy until he got to his seat in the nosebleed section.
