Going On Ahead Of Christ

Contributed by Jon Lipka on Mar 4, 2012

“After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of him to every town and place where he was about to go” (Lk. 10:1). In every generation, Jesus appoints men to go forth and prepare the way before Him. Surely Jesus could do the work Himself—indeed ...read more

The Indispensable Light Of Christ Series

Contributed by Ron Tuit on Oct 27, 2015

Jesus gives His second sermon on "The I AM's of Jesus" in the context of the Feast of Tabernacles. There is a great significance in His choice to bring this message, "I am the light of the World" at the closing of this feast.

THE INDISPENSABLE LIGHT Of CHRIST (John 8:12-20) Did you ever consider the fact that the Lord Jesus gave sermons? Much of what Jesus taught concerned the witness of Himself. One of the sermon series that Jesus preached is the “I AM” sayings of Jesus, which were emphatic ...read more

Zechariah: Christ Is Coming Series

Contributed by Fred Sigle on Jan 12, 2023

Many believe that Zechariah’s prophecy foretells Christ’s rule of an earthly kingdom that is yet to be established, and will rule for a thousand years. I believe that Zechariah is referring to Christ’s Spiritual Kingdom—the CHURCH—in which you and I are part of today.

Real Presence Of Christ Series

Contributed by Charles Scott on Feb 14, 2003

The power of the Lord’s Last Supper is lost on many of us because we fail to understand Jesus’ use of the word Cup; this sermon reveals how the Disciples understood Jesus saying "This is my body" and "Drink this to commemorate me."
