    Thyatira is a corrupt church. They do many great works, but God does not even address them as His children. It’s still here today and is key to the end of the world. Link inc. to formatted text, audio/video, PowerPoint.

    based on 91 ratings
     | 19,688 views

    This passage contains one of the most tragic but repeated statements in all Scripture: "We will not listen to God..." Why did the Jews say it and how can we avoid the same error in our lives and in our churches?

    OPEN: A young boy, about eight years old, was at the corner "Mom & Pop" grocery store picking out a pretty good size box of laundry detergent. The grocer walked over and, trying to be friendly, asked the boy if he had a lot of laundry to do. "Oh, no laundry," the boy said. "I’m going to wash my ...read more

    If we know how the story ends, and who is in charge of it, we can feel secure even through turbulent times.

    I’ve heard it said that the world can be divided into two kinds of people: the ones who read the end of the book first, and the ones who don’t. Which one are you? I’[ve always thought I was the second kind - the one who never read the ending first - until I stopped to think ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,256 views

    The Bible tells us to pray without ceasing; (1 Thessalonians 5:17 NAU), but how is that possible? We have been learning how to do that here in this model prayer that Jesus gave us. The six requests that Jesus lists here should keep us busy praying.

    Purpose: To alert us to our vulnerability to Satan's attacks. Aim: I want the listener to see the importance of avoiding sin by relying on God's strength. INTRODUCTION: The Bible tells us to pray without ceasing; (1 Thessalonians 5:17 NAU), but how is that possible? We have been learning how to ...read more

     | 17,251 views

    Jesus was born to bring us peace - that's what Isaiah declared and angels sang. But what does that mean? What kind of peace did Jesus come to give me, and how can I receive it?

    The past few weeks we’ve been looking at the gifts Jesus was born to give us. This week, we’re focusing on the gift of “peace” and (because today is Christmas) I wanted to start the sermon with a Christmas Carol that had peace as part of its message. But as I searched ...read more

    We The People, Breaking Bondages Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 15, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,726 views

    God does not want merely personal religion; He desires our investment in breaking the bondages that imprison others. America post-Vietnam is strikingly similar to Judah post-Exile. Neither can afford to retreat into comfortable religion.

    A great nation had been humiliated by something they had never supposed could happen. Because they saw themselves as the people of God, chosen by him for a special role in the world's history, they had imagined themselves invulnerable. God would never desert his people, they believed. God would not ...read more

    Don't Stop Now! Haggai 2:1-9 If we are honest there are times in life when we just want to give up. This is especially true concerning the ministry.

    Psalm 136 (Kjv) Title: His Loving Kindness Endures Forever Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 26, 2020
     | 11,347 views

    The theme of this psalm isT “mercy’s vast unfathomable sea.” God’s love is deeper, far deeper than that. The psalmist looks first at God’s goodness manifested in His “mercy.” The word for mercy is the usual word for grace or lovingkindness. That “mercy endures forever.”

    3/25/20 Tom Lowe Psalm 136 (KJV) 1O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth forever. 2O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth forever. 3O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever. 4To him who alone doeth great wonders: ...read more
