Healed But Not Whole

Contributed by Rex E. Faile on Jan 31, 2007

This story of the 10 lepers which Jesus healed is a perfect example to some of our problems today. That which we seek is not what we really need. In the process we put ourselves and others under pressure to make us whole when only Christ can do this.

Faile, Sr. Lakewood Christian Church Luke 17:11-19 11 And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. 12 And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar ...read more

The Lord's Supper, A Long Story Series

In Jesus’ Name

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Oct 31, 2024

With names in mind, nicknames or surnames, can you name all the nicknames or surnames given to Jesus? We identify him as Jesus Christ. Let us notice a few.

It stands to reason there are too many people in the world for the number of names available. Some people create new names but the total number does not come near the population. To correctly identify a person in conversation a surname is given. A surname is a last name. This becomes understandable ...read more

Jesus Loves The Church

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Feb 8, 2005

Jesus loves the church very deeply. He is faithful and committed to His church, despite our failures. Let us (1) love the church the way He loves her, and (2) understand our need of the church for our growth.

(Most thoughts in this sermon taken from Joshua Harris’ book ’Stop Dating the Church’.) How does Jesus see the church? The passage in Eph 5 is usually heard at weddings - about the love between husband and wife. This is right and good, but these verses also reveal a lot about what Jesus thinks ...read more

Contributed by Joe Rowland on Feb 2, 2009

Have you ever found it hard to give to what you want to do? Most people will do what they want and forget what the Word of God says to do. We have to learn to die to self. We need to learn to walk in the Spirit that we do not fulfill the lust of the flesh
