    Deliberate Church Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021
     | 1,921 views

    One law professor said that without lying and bragging, half the pickup lines in bars across the country wouldn’t exist. Churches are deliberately places where bragging is non-existent (about ourselves) and where grace is paramount.

    Today is Super Bowl Sunday. CBS is hoping for more than 100 million people watch the game today. The Super Bowl represents the best two teams and the best 106 players competing for bragging rights. There is little humility on the field today. They’ll talk about thankfulness and offer moderate words ...read more

    The Sixth Commandment: Thou Shall Not Murder! Series

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 29, 2022

     | 2,291 views

    The Ten Commandments tell us that we should not commit murder. There is a difference between killing and murder. We are watching the death of democracy in America. The womb of the mother should be a sanctuary of hope, not a death chamber. This is the law of God, and it does not change.

    Turn in your Bibles to Exodus 20:13, as we continue our sermon series on the Ten Commandments with this simple statement, "Thou shall do no murder". Say that with me. "Thou shall do no murder". I doubt there are any gangsters or professional hitmen reading this right now. Yet ...read more

     | 1,805 views

    The Galatians had been seduced into error by false teachers trying to put them under Law instead of grace. Paul writes decisively to them and recounts his own involvement in the gospel dealing with this error and his visits to Jerusalem.

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 2:1-10 - MESSAGE 4 – PAUL’S STRATEGIC POSITION AS APOSTLE TO THE GENTILES [A]. INTRODUCTION TO THIS MESSAGE (a).

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 15, 2024
     | 751 views

    The message today covers reconciliation and the great matter of sin before the Law came in. What is “reckoned, “imputed”? We look at sin leading to death and what God did for us while we were STILL ENEMIES.

ROMANS CHAPTER 5 VERSES 6-9 - MESSAGES IN ROMANS – RECONCILIATION AND WHO IS ACCOUNTABLE FOR SIN? - MESSAGE 23 Last time we studied this passage we left off at this most important verse - {{Romans 5:9 “Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be SAVED FROM THE WRATH ...read more

    Psalm 2 Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,219 views

    The first two psalms are often considered to be designed as a pair serving as an introduction to the 150-psalm collection. The first psalm describes the difference between the blessed man and the evil man, and Psalm 2 is about triumph over the forces that oppose the faith.

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

    Measure Upon Measure – Curse – The Restoration Of God - Part 5 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 28, 2025
     | 225 views

    Sin produces cursing. Through the Fall in the garden of Eden, the serpent was cursed. Then the ground and creation was cursed. That is why life is so difficult in many ways. We trace that theme. Then the Law of Moses cursed the keeper, but Christ became a curse for sinners.

    MEASURE UPON MEASURE – CURSE – THE RESTORATION OF GOD - Part 5 CHAPTER THREE - THE THIRD CONSEQUENCE The third CONSEQUENCE of man’s sin through the fall has resulted in a vast array of problems on this earth. It is bordering on the impossible with our confinement to the present world ...read more

    Hebrews # 20. Because Moses ranks so highly among the Old Testament figures, to show that he lived by faith and not adherence to the Law was a powerful argument to convince the Jews that God’s way had always been the way of faith.

    In the day of Christ’s dying, there was the dam of God’s patience, and the flood of God’s wrath; the day that Christ was placed upon the cross, God said that Christ was guilty of all of the law, having become of a curse through his crucifixion.

    As most of you are aware, in preparation for Easter we have been taking a close look at the message of Isaiah, particularly Isaiah 52:13 - 53:12.
