    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Jun 25, 2020
     | 2,315 views

    Only as we live under the banner of Jesus can racial prejudice disappear. I have copied notes about Rev. Martin Luther King Senior from a sermon by Ray Pritchard. (June 2020) I have included "Steps for Forgiveness" from "Seventy Times Seven" by Robert Hoyer

    In Jesus Holy Name June 28, 2020 Text: Colossians 3:12-14 Pentecost IV - Redeemer “You Can Forgive The Past” The Declaration of Independence declares that all men are created equal. It was and remains the American dream. We all know it has been applied inconsistently, but ...read more

    Signs

    Contributed by Bill Stonebraker on Jan 18, 2022
     | 1,889 views

    In John's Gospel, miracles are signs pointing to something beyond the miracle. In Jesus' 1st sign, turning water to wine, what does it point to? What's it got to do with us?

    A drunken coal miner came to Christ & went stone cold sober. He began telling all his friends about his freedom in Christ & the evils of alcohol. One friend decided to trap him. “Do you really believe Jesus turned water into wine?” “Absolutely!” he replied. “For me, He’s turned wine into a ...read more

    The Millennium

    WOULDN'T YOU LOVE TO LIVE FOR 1000 YEARS IN PERFECT PEACE WITH THE LORD? THE BEAUTIFUL THING ABOUT THE MILLENNIUM IS THAT IT IS A FORE-SHADOWING OF WHAT ETERNITY WILL BE LIKE.

    THE MILLENNIUM REVELATION 20:1-11 THE ENTIRE WORLD HAS BEEN SEARCHING SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME, AND I MIGHT ADD UNSUCCESSFULLY, FOR PEACE. WE HAVE COME TO THINK OF PEACE AS THE ABSENCE OF HOSTILITY, AND THE WORLD HAS ONLY KNOWN ABOUT 250 YEARS OF THIS FORM OF PEACE. PEACE ESCAPES US AS ...read more

    Are We Telling It Like It Really Is?

     | 11,156 views

    Here is my adaptation of a sermon contributed by Tim Zingale, Sermon Central, Sept. 2007, "The Rabbit". The focus of my adaptation is the declining vitality of the universal Christian church resulting from having lost sight of Christ, the cornerstone of God's redemptive church.

    (If you have found this sermon helpful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) One day, a young disciple of Christ who wanted to become everything that God had in mind for him visited the home of an elderly Christian seeking his advice. He had heard that ...read more

    A Life Of Gratitude (Thanksgiving Message)

     | 2,594 views

    Bart Simpson, in a program aimed at millions of America's young, is asked to say grace and he says, "Dear God, we paid for all this stuff ourselves, so thanks for nothing."

    The attitude of ungratefulness can not only be seen in the cartoons in the newspaper, but also in the lives of people. WHAT AN UNGRATEFUL PEOPLE WE HAVE BECOME! For example, if you have attended church very long you have experienced ingratitude. • There are people who will attend church to get ...read more

    Do you have to use special words when you talk to your Dad, or wait for a special time, or wear special clothes. Hopefully not. It's the same with God. He wants us to open our hearts and talk to Him often.

    Luke 11:1-13 (v.9-10) Prayer - May the words of my mouth SERMON – Jesus wants us to ask, seek and knock A bible class teacher once asked his group this question: "When you are in trouble, what do you usually do?"

     | 6,791 views

    This is the 20th sermon in a series we've been doing on John's Gospel. In this sermon we focus on seeking Jesus as He is the greatest treasure, the only meaningful gift, not necessarily what He gives us, but He, Himself.

    What do you seek: The gifts or the Giver? (Gospel of John Part 20) Text: John 6:22-27 So we’ve been in John’s Gospel for some time now… and we’re in one of the longest chapters of the entire book… Chapter six… it has 71 verses.

    As Christians, who have put on the new man in Christ, we are His light to world. We have no business walking in darkness rather we are expose what is in the darkness by shining the Light.

    This series has been about putting on the new man, that we are a new creation in Christ, and what is should look like. Our theme for this series works around these two thoughts. Ephesians 4:22a and 24a (NKJV) that you put off, … the old man ... and that you put on the new man … Last week, we ...read more

    Grace From Galatians (18 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022
     | 1,535 views

    Remember that when we started the Book of Galatians we talked about how these false teachers attacked Paul. They stated: • He was not a true apostle • He was preaching a false gospel

    Before Paul brings this letter to a close, he wants to deal with this subject sternly. The strategy that some use when they want to destroy a message is to destroy the messenger. This is the kind of strategy they were using against the apostle Paul. This is done in politics all the time. When ...read more

    Running The Race

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 1, 2025
     | 885 views

    The New Testament likens the Christian life to running a race. We look at how it uses the metaphor. It calls us to strive, to improve, and to stay the course.

    INTRODUCTION The writer of the Letter to the Hebrews wrote: ‘Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.’ The writer imagined the Christian life as a race – a race that requires endurance. We’re presently in a series in which we’re looking at items in the news. In some of the ...read more

    On Remembrance Sunday let's remember, first, that there are things to SACRIFICE for. Second, that there are things to FIGHT for. And third, that there are things to HOPE for.

    INTRODUCTION EARLIER IN THE SERVICE Today is Remembrance Sunday. It’s a time for remembering.
