The Four Judgments

Contributed by Thomas Donelan on May 18, 2010

When men make judgments, there may be errors, but when God judges, His judgments are holy, just, and true and we need to be aware of the areas God will judge us and make our adjustments according to His will.

INTRODUCTION God is a just God, God is a Holy God and as such God has to judge us, when He does, it will be a righteous judgment. It will not be imperfect or biased as can happen when we face judgments of men. I was stopped with my left turn signal on and some crazy person passed me while I was ...read more

Sent On A Mission By Jesus

Contributed by Sterling Franklin on Apr 17, 2011

Just as Jesus had authority, told His disciples what would happen, and told them what to do, He has the same in our lives and has sent us on a mission to make disciples in this dying world.

Matthew 21: The Triumphal Entry Parallel Passages: Mark 11:1-10 Luke 19:28-40 John 12:12-19 There are many stories unique to various Gospels, especially in John, but many are also shared between one or more Gospels. This was a very important event that took place the week of His ...read more

Who's Using You?

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jun 13, 2011

How do respond when someone hurts you? Is it with veiled hatred and open contempt? The Apostle Paul had to deal with just such a situation and how he handled it can help us to deal with pain in a godly way.

Sometimes the right thing to do is confront bad behavior or attitudes. As a leader there have been times when I have had to call someone on the carpet. It’s never easy and too often that person does not receive the exhortation or even rebuke well. As a leader, my job is to protect and nurture ...read more

The Traits Of Token Religion

Contributed by Donnie Martin on Jul 17, 2009

Just because someone attaches the word "worship" to a religious service, doesn’t mean that the term fits. This was often the case with Israel’s religous rituals. Sadly, it is often true of many church services in our day.

The Traits Of Token Religion Text: Phil.1: 3-11 Intro: Today I want to focus on the thought mentioned in the second half of Philippians 1: 10. Paul tells the Philippians that he was praying that their love for Christ might continue to grow, resulting in knowledge, discernment, and sincerity. ...read more

The Tears That Touched Jesus’ Heart Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Apr 15, 2012

Jesus only raised 3 people (that I know of) from the dead. Why didn’t He raise everybody out of the grave? Why just people like this only son of the widow of Nain?

OPEN: One of my favorite radio preachers is a man named Tony Evans. I remember listening to him use an illustration about standing in a cafeteria line – and he made it sound intriguing and almost exciting. What I want to share with you this morning (copying as best I can Evans’ distinctive way of ...read more

Contributed by Rev. Richard Norman on Jan 10, 2012

Last week we studied the principle of evangelization of the lost. I mentioned during the sermon that in its’ preparation I realized that there was another aspect of evangelization that I noticed in the passage of scripture just prior to my text.

Jesus’ Concern For The Heart

Contributed by Ken Henson on Aug 1, 2012

The Law which more than what you do or you do not do, but about a reflection of our character - about who we are on the inside. It is not just doing what is right, but being right which is more important.

Matthew 6:1 “Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.

Running The Race Every Day Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Aug 14, 2012

Does God have first place in your life? Every day or just for a couple of hours on a Sunday? God is not an after thought. God is meant to be our focus, our purpose, our reason, the centre of our life.

Act Two: The Older Son Series

Contributed by David Rumley on Oct 28, 2009

A man had two sons... Luke 15 tells us the powerful parable of being lost and finding the extravagance grace of God! The problem, the older son is just as lost as the younger one, but doesn’t know it.

The Prodigal God Act Two: The Older Son Inspired by and parts based on Tim Kellers book “The Prodigal God” Luke 15: 25 "Meanwhile, the older son was in the field.

Are You Sick? Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 2, 2009

Jesus tweaks the argument of who is in control just a little bit to introduce the real sickness in mankind - sin. He is in control of that too. Are you willing to give Him control over your total cleansing from evil?

We’ve spent a couple of weeks in Matthew chapter 8 talking about control and authority. Matthew shows us that Jesus has it—over the seen and unseen universe—but that we as humans are loathe to give up control over our own lives and give it to Him. We saw a couple of notable examples in a Gentile ...read more

What Is Prayer About

Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Sep 17, 2012

Prayer is not an antidote to worry. Have you ever prayed about a stressful situation just to discover that you’re still worried about it? Faith is the antidote to worry. Prayer is about asking God for the supernatural.

I would like for you to consider for a moment if God appeared to you and said, “The people of Kabul Afghanistan are ready to hear about my Son Jesus and I want you to be the messenger to go speak of His resurrection and offer of grace.” Would you go? Would you go, knowing, that ...read more

The Purpose Of The Scriptures Series

Contributed by Carl Allen on Apr 20, 2009

Why did God give us the Bible? Why did He feel that He needed to inspire man to write the words that lay before us. These are just a few of the questions that I believe are answered in the text for today.

God’s Perfect Word The Purpose of the Scriptures 2 Timothy 3:14-17 Intro: In our text tonight, Timothy is challenged to maintain a close relationship with the Word of God. Paul tells him of the benefits that come from such a relationship. He is reminded that it is the Scriptures which have taught ...read more

In The Silence Series

Contributed by Robert Higgins on Sep 18, 2007

One way we can improve our worship experience corporately, is to meet with God more fully and intimately each day of the week. The fullest encounter of God is found not just in His presence, but encountering His glory.

Encountering God – Part 3: “In the Silence” Quote from Children’s Letters to God. "Dear God, Is Pastor Bill a friend of yours, or do you just know him through business? Donny" Why did we do testimonies? Testimonies are for praise. Praise is about what God has done. Worship is about who God ...read more
