     | 18,064 views

    Proposition: In this passage the apostles tell us "We must obey God rather than men." How do we know that we are obeying God? 1. Saturating our lives with His Word 2. Individual and corporate prayer 3. Living in the flow of the Holy Spirit

    Scripture: Acts 5:27-42 (cf. verses 27 -32); Psalms 150 and John 20:19-31 Theme: Obeying God Proposition: In this passage the disciples make a very poignant statement: "We must obey God rather than men."

    Sermon preached before VBS 2015

    Intro: This passage comes from a promise to the people of Judah (The southern kingdom of the nation of Israel) they are told that when they were comfortable they would not hear God’s word or the voices of their teachers.

    Mirror, Mirror On The Wall; Do I Look Like Christ At All? James 1:19-25 Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 26, 2015
     | 9,315 views

    In this passage James speaks to us about "human" anger and the moral filth of the world. He then compares the Word of God to a spiritual mirror that we need to look into intently if we desire to be spiritually presentable to God.

    Today, we’ll be taking a look at James 1:19-25 James 1:19-25 “My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires. ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,230 views

    We all make mistakes, even David. Jesus paid the price for our mistakes but still demands a sacrifice of us, our lives must be living sacrifice. And a sacrifice is not a sacrifice if it costs you nothing.

    ONE BAD ACCOUNTING 1 Chronicles 21 Scripture Reading: 1 Samuel 17:40-49 INTRODUCTION 1. David is one of the good guys of Bible history for the most part a. God calls him a "man after God's own heart" b. He was, all in all, a good egg 2. But he was not without chinks in his armor a. One of his ...read more

    Ultimate Fighter Round #5

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Oct 3, 2019
     | 2,085 views

    The Galatians have made a wrong turn and were on a road that leads back to an eternal life of hopelessness. Paul has used rhetoric, satire, allegory and even abusive language to get their attention.

    Paul has used rhetoric, satire, allegory and even abusive language to get their attention. He now turns, feeling confident that the last four chapters were sufficient to prove his point, to encouragement of these lost Christians coupled with a warning not to repeat these mistakes again.

    If you want to be fully alive, invite Jesus into your life, turn to Him for help, and do whatever he tells you to do. Then have a good time!

    While teaching at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Tony Campolo once turned an ordinary lecture into an unforgettable lesson. He asked an unsuspecting student sitting in the front row, “Young man, how long have you lived?” The student answered his age. Tony responded, “No, no, no. That's how ...read more

    Be Not Afraid Of Their Faces

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Sep 30, 2023
     | 4,643 views

    Has God ever told you to deliver a message to someone but when you saw their face you became nervous about what you were supposed to say? This message is about how God directed Jeremiah to move beyond his fear of those he would be prophesying to.

    Be Not Afraid Of Their Faces Scripture: Jeremiah 1:4-8; 17-19; John 5:19, 30; 7:16 When I reflect on the messages that the Spirit has given me over the last few weeks, I can’t help but wonder what is He preparing us for? We have been told that we are watchmen – meaning that we are supposed to ...read more

    A Life Unwasted

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 23, 2022
     | 1,357 views

    When human beings ignore the law of God, set up for our benefit, laid down so that human families and societies will be places to grow and prosper, everything is constantly on the verge of utter disorder.

    A Life Unwasted The other evening I was watching an old movie, and by that I mean from the eighties of the last century. It wasn’t particularly good, but it dramatized a lot about the culture of Washington, DC residents living at the top of the socio-economic heap at the time. One of the ...read more

    Choosing The Better Part

    Like Mary, we must make the willful choice to come near to Jesus in salvation and to allow the Holy Spirit to work within us to live a sanctified life pleasing to God.

    Jesus Christ: Our Model Of Suffering

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 20, 2022
     | 2,057 views

    In the eighteenth chapter of John's gospel, we are presented with the beginnings of the sufferings that the Lord Jesus would undergo for the sake of our redemption, paying a debt He did not owe for fallen humanity who could never pay it.

    Several years ago, I came across a televangelist who peddled the ungodly "word-of-faith", or "prosperity" gospel that is poisoning the body of Christ in these last days. One of the "sales pitches" (and that is the only means by which I can define it) these folks ...read more

    Do You Want The Church To Grow?

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Jan 20, 2020
     | 2,538 views

    This is a sermon on evangelism that is tied to Jesus's call to the apostle Andrew. Andrew 1) grows in discipleship and 2) grows the church. The sermon tells people that they can be excited and happy about their faith, and share it with other people.

    Do you want the church to grow? Andrew wasn’t the popular kid in class. His name is only mentioned in twelve verses in the Bible, and eight of those describe him as "Peter's little brother." Even though he was one of the first two or three followers of Jesus, Peter was still the ...read more

    Abraham, Our Spiritual Father We continue to examine the story of Abraham, the father of the faithful.
