    A lesson to be learnt from the psalmist with regards to what our perspectives should be towards the issue of pain & suffering.

    INTRODUCTION I would like us to turn our attention today to the Book of Psalms. My hope is that we will get to learn something from the psalmist with regards to what our perspectives should be when it comes to this whole issue of pain & suffering. Most of us are probably more familiar with those ...read more

    Are we to sell all that we have and give all of it to the Church to administrate for everyone one. Or does this passage mean something else?

    Sermon Title: Hey, wait a minute. Scripture Text: Acts 4:32-35 ILLUSTRATION by joke. There's a story of a soapbox preacher in Hyde Park. He declared: "If you had two houses, you would give one to the poor wouldn't you?' 'Yes' said a man in the audience, 'indeed I ...read more

    Hurry Up And Wait

    Contributed by Richard L. Brown on Dec 7, 2017
     | 5,550 views

    This is a sermon about the second coming of Christ. It asks the question, "if God somehow came to you and told you the world would end tomorrow, how would you change your life?"

    Hurry Up and Wait! 2 Peter 3:8-15 Sunday 12/10/17 The Second Sunday in Advent One of the most frustrating things I know is to travel on an airplane. What I hate about it is that you find yourself in a helpless cycle of Hurry Up and Wait. You know what I mean? You must be at the ...read more

    A World Waiting For Jesus

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Oct 5, 2012
     | 6,616 views

    Sometimes we come across to others as people who seem very different from what we claim to be. This happens when we fail to practice what we preach. It also happens when others make assumption about us without having all the facts.

    A world waiting for Jesus Isaiah 51:1-18 and Matthew 16:1-12 An honest man is being tailgated by a stressed-out woman on a busy boulevard. Suddenly, the light turns yellow, just in front of him. He does the honest thing, and stops at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light ...read more

    All too often people are judging Jesus by the cover and not the content. We make up that cover and so sometimes people get the wrong impression of who Jesus is.

    Since you and I can’t be Crowned “Till death shall set me free and then go home,” I thought it would be profitable and pertinent to probe this Interim Period of Delay. And so the Question is: WHAT MUST YOU AND I DO WHILE WAITING TO BE CROWNED? I wonder, a

    “Must Jesus bear the cross alone, and all the world go free? No, there’s a cross for everyone, and there’s a cross for me. The consecrated cross I’ll bear till death shall set me free; And then go home my crown to wear. For there’s a crown for me.” I feel led of God the Holy Spirit to address this ...read more

    This sermon tells us that while we are here on earth we are in God’s waiting room and we should make our time useful and joyful.

    If you ever had an appointment with a doctor, dentist, lawyer, etc, you have notice when you arrive at their office, usually the first thing the receptionist say is, have a seat. We will be with you soon. The offering of a seat is an invitation to rest while you are waiting. While you are waiting ...read more

    We have to know that the Lord is listening to us, while we are going through difficult times

    (2Cor6:2) After America uses the rest-room, she forgets to turn the light on, if I can really catch America, when she is just about to go in darkly as we all know it. I could teach her that there is a time for everything, a time to lose, a time to win, and a time to change. America doesn’t like ...read more

    The Thessalonian believers had it right. Turn from idols to the living God, serve Him and one another, wait with great anticipation for Christ’s return.

    8 “For the word of the Lord has sounded forth from you, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God has gone forth, so that we have no need to say anything. 9 For they themselves report about us what kind of a reception we had with you, and how you turned to God ...read more

    First in a series on the early church from Acts 1-4. This message deals with how to wait on God.

    Note: Although my outline is very similar to a great sermon by Medford Foskey on this same passage, I only read his sermon after completing most of the work on mine. However I did "steal" his opening story. “It is a sin to be good if God has called us to be great.” That is the first line from ...read more

    Not all forms of waiting are the same. Imagine 3 different sets of people waiting at a bus stop...

    Not all waiting is the same. If you have got three sets of people waiting at a bus stop, the emotions they are going through could be entirely different. One brother and sister are waiting for the bus to go to Ealing Hospital as they have everyday this week. They doesn’t know what they will find ...read more
