    True Freedom Series

    Contributed by Matthew Stoll on Jan 5, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,958 views

    We are called to live in freedom, freedom not to live for ourselves, but freedom to follow Christ.

    What comes to your mind when I say the word "freedom?" Freedom from slavery, freedom from hunger, freedom from poverty, or freedom from tyranny? Many of us would say freedom from sin. The Bible is clear when we trust in Jesus, and believe he took our sins upon himself on the cross and died so ...read more

    We justify not being mature by claiming that we are just like everyone else, or that we are at least working on that goal. But our example is Jesus, who gathers up our incompleteness into Himself and shows us the way to mature.

    When I first announced the title of this message, “I’m Not Perfect”, somebody was sharp enough to reply, “Yes, we’ve noticed, we’ve noticed.” Well, thanks a heap! Don’t you know by now that when I say something self-deprecating, you are supposed to shower me with compliments and bathe me in ...read more

    Paul points us outside of ourselves to find hope and confidence in our future

    January 18, 2004 Titus 3:4-7 When the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus ...read more

    Unshackled Hands Series

     | 4,022 views

    I could quite easily justify not even stopping...But I was reminded that unshackled hands are not concerned about how or why – only that there is a need and I should do something about it.

    A well dressed woman was on an African Safari that stopped in a leper hospital. The air was humid and sticky. Flies buzzed in frenzy. The woman noticed a nurse bending toward a patient, attending a leper’s pus-filled sores. The woman said, “I wouldn’t do that for all the money in the world” to ...read more

     | 12,210 views

    We are justified freely through grace, that came by Christ Jesus. The liturgy asks the question "Who may ascend the hill of the LORD?" When we are saved by grace through faith all may.

    Psalm 24 starts with these two verses, “The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for he founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.” As we know there‘s a lot of debate on various aspects of scripture, the whole theme ...read more

    Counterfeit Christianity Part 1: Itching Ears Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 12,751 views

    Many will reject the sound doctrines of the bible to have their "Itching ears" satisfied. They will seek out teachers and preachers to make them feel good about themselves and to have their sins justified.

    Yesterday on Facebook, a quote from A.W. Tozer popped up (I follow the “A.W. Tozer - Daily Inspirations from Great Christians” FB page). It so much applied to today’s message: "A whole new generation of Christians has come up believing that it is possible to “accept” Christ without forsaking ...read more

    To establish that all the Corinthian’s were washed, were sanctified and were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and by the Holy Spirit of our God. All their sins were forgiven, by gospel obedience.

    Let us recommit ourselves to experiencing the peace of God in our lives and in our fellowship.

    The God of Peace, II Corinthians 13:11-14 Introduction I know a man who not long ago gave his heart to Christ, and has since lived a very happy Christian, who for a long time prior to his conversion had been so eaten up by care and anxiety that he had been ill-natured on account of it.

    We must first love ourselves before we can love others. Looking at our friends should help us define who we are but not at the expense of ourselves.

    Forgiveness

     | 8,960 views

    This is a sermon on more than forgiving other, and God forgiving us. It deals with the need of forgiving ourselves. We must forgive ourselves, so God can forgive us.

    Forgiveness Note for my church: • We need to be careful of our vision. • We have just built this wonderful building. • We have a vision to expand, by knocking out that wall. • We see a “crowd” of people coming through that door. • See… We need to stop watching out for the crowd, and focus on the ...read more

    Defusing The Bomb Of Conflict

    Contributed by Tim Hinrichs on Nov 29, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,760 views

    The key to defusing the dangerous and destructive bomb of conflict is humbling ourselves before God and our neighbor. This will result in blessing for ourselves and is the one thing that can change our neighbor.

    The setting is modern day Iraq. A soldier specially trained is cautiously approaching a large torpedo shaped bomb capable of destroying the lives of anyone within half a block. He has good intentions of defusing it and bringing peace instead of destruction. The bomb is a real threat – it is ...read more

    Joseph, Asking To Be Hated Series

    If we concern ourselves with only ourselves, and we have no or little concern for how our words or actions impact others, we might get what we deserve.

    Joseph, Asking to Be Hated (Genesis 37:1-36) 1. When it comes to appreciating how good we have it, sometimes we do not realize it until we lose it. One college student wrote home: 2. "Dear Mom: Sorry I haven’t written sooner. My arm really has been broken. I broke it, and my left leg, when ...read more

     | 4,805 views

    Peter has good intentions, but they are not in agreement with God's ultimate plan. We must covenant to deny ourselves and align ourselves to God's will and ways.

    WE MAY HAVE HEARD THIS FAMILIAR SAYING: “THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS.” AN INTENTION IS SIMPLY A PLAN OR GOAL WE HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH. IRONICALLY, INTENTIONS DON’T ACHIEVE ANYTHING. THEY ARE MERELY IDEAS AND DREAMS OF SPECIFIC THINGS THAT WE’D LIKE TO SEE DONE IN THE ...read more

    Many of us are familiar with having to identify ourselves with a driver’s license or a birth certificate in order to identify ourselves to prove that we are who we say we are.

    Intro: We read in the gospels where the Lord performed all kinds of miracles. For example: • He turned water into wine. • Cast out demons • Healed Peter’s mother-in-law • Healed the lepers • Healed a paralyze man • Healed a man with a withered hand • Healed the deaf • Healed the blind ...read more
