Sermons on Law And Faith:

Freedom

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Nov 8, 2007

The church must speak Gods truth even when the government of the day no longer wishes to hear it. Pray we find the courage our brave veterans posses so that we too can defend the faith from enemies both foreign and domestic and enjoy our freedom.

Freedom There are many kinds of freedom and many kinds of slavery. We can be free in our spirit and souls yet be enslaved and held prisoner by a government that does not recognize our God or our beliefs. We think of ancient times when Christians were brought into the arenas as slaves for the ...read more

Express Love

Contributed by Jeffry Abitan on Mar 7, 2020

Today I will preach about the other side of the coin, our love towards God. Christianity is a religion of action, religion of compassion, love, and mercy. FAITH WITHOUT ACTION IS A DEAD FAITH.

How are we going to express our love for God? 1. Express your love to God by obeying If you love God to obey his commandments! John 14:23-24 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24 Anyone who ...read more

Truth

Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jan 8, 2012

A sermon on the importance of truth: Its reality, the ability to know it and the difference it makes.

At one point in the history of the world, truth was very important and people sought to know truth and thereby gain wisdom.

A Living Wage Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 28, 2022

There’s a difference between dead-end religion and living faith.

I expect the issue of minimum wage will come up in Congress again this year. There are good arguments on both sides - Those who are in favor of raising it will argue, rightly, that you can’t support a family on a minimum wage job, and that people who “work hard and play by the rules” should be able ...read more

Two Covenants Series

Contributed by Carl Allen on Jul 13, 2010

Gal. 4:21-5:1 is a great use of an analogy by Paul to show the difference between the Mosiac Covenant and the Covenant brought by Jesus Christ.

Two Covenants Gal. 4:21-5:1 Introduction In this text Paul continues to contrast grace and law, faith and works. Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit he employs an Old Testament story as an analogy, which serves not so much as an argument as an illustration. Paul here doesn’t give us a ...read more

Falling From Grace Series

Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jul 13, 2010

Speaking on grace has seemed one sided…when you speak of unconditional forgiveness, limitless love, & boundless acceptance. It’s just screaming to be abused and misused... here are three loop-holes:
