    In The Enemies' Court

    based on 1 rating
     | 13,754 views

    The first chapter of Daniel establishes that God is the focus of the Book. God reigns over the nation and over the individual. His sovereignty is central to every event that is recorded.

    “In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and besieged it. And the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, with some of the vessels of the house of God. And he brought them to the land of Shinar, to the house of his god, ...read more

    Conditioning, Confusion And Condemnation - Devil's Deception Schemes

    You know, statistics will show that many people don’t believe in Satan. Or in the idea of a devil. They think he is a made up character. A fictional character in books and movies. That’s the second thing that Satan wants us to believe. That he’s not real.

    Be Delivered from Deception Alright. We begin with our verse this morning in John 1:4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. Let us pray…. Lord JESUS, you are the light of the world, shine forth your ...read more

    "A Genuine Faith" Part 1

    Contributed by Dave Martin on May 17, 2002
    based on 59 ratings
     | 3,456 views

    Often we have misconceptions in what the Bible says concerning various topics. We will sometimes plug our own ideas, thoughts or solution to our everyday situations and really mess things up. We have to align our lives with the Word of God.

    “A Genuine Faith” Part 1of 2 2Peter 1:1-2 Selected Cross Creek Community Church Pastor Dave Martin May 19, 2002 Was that skit good or what? How well do we know the Bible? The older girls were Christians for 10 years yet ignorant when it comes to knowing the Word of God. Often we have ...read more

    Hope Dies Series

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Apr 10, 2016
     | 5,022 views

    Hopelessness comes from misunderstanding the cross. There is no beauty in the cross to the carnal man. Once conviction of sin and confession of Jesus as Lord happens there is hope.

    Intro: Our world seems hopeless in many ways. Economically, politically, racially, stock market woes, natural disasters. From a purely worldly standpoint there seems to be no reason to hope. The disciples of Jesus felt much the same way. Even though Jesus had told them again and again what ...read more

    A lamp is lit so that we can see. Jesus is the light of the world. Man is responsible for the light he receives. The true light is available.

    Luke – The Light of the Body is the Eye Prayer Introduction The use of light and dark to describe good and bad throughout scripture and in our culture is pretty universal. If you think good thoughts you are in the light. If you think bad thoughts you are in darkness. This picture is common to ...read more

    The woman at the well and this man who asked her for water, who just happened to know all there was to know about her. Who is he?

    The Village who came to believe because Jesus knew all there was to know about someone. John 4:1-42. Helen Keller was a great author, political activist and lecturer.

    No Failures, Just Learning Experiences Series

    This is the second message in a series on Moses that shows being God's man is never easy. This message teaches that there are never any failures, just learning experiences.

    How many of you have ever failed at something? If we are brutally honest we would all admit that we have failed more times than we would like to admit. However, I would like to suggest that there are two classes of people who fail: The ones who give up and the ones who use those failures as ...read more

    Burning Coals

    We recently reintroduced a song which contained the lyrics "Take the coal, cleanse my lips, here I am". Most of the people in the church had no idea what they meant. Sadly, this is not unusual. Isaiah 6 was a great study of the coal from the altar of God!

    Have you ever been driving somewhere and your mind is wandering and suddenly you realize, “How did I get here?” Are we ever like that in a worship service or when we go over our memory Scriptures or when we are singing in worship? What a beautiful song, "Take me into the holy of ...read more

     | 2,954 views

    This sermon challenges us to incarnate the gospel; the big idea is "The Word became flesh - and now flesh must become the word." Instead of saying "Merry Christmas" - to fellow Christians lets say, "Merry Incarnation"!

    Title: “Merry Incarnation” Text: John 1:1-14 Idea: The Word Became Flesh And Now Flesh Becomes The Word. Purpose/problem to solve; ...that people really get the concept of incarnation (1) of God (2) of us. Introduction - Virtual Christmas fails to compare with in-the-flesh ...read more

     | 5,398 views

    Human beings have a strong tendency to live life in their own individual ways. We bristle at the idea of anyone – even God telling us how to live. But when we see Jesus' obedience on the cross it can motivate us to obey God.

    Introduction: C. S. Lewis is probably best known today as the author of The Chronicles of Narnia because that series of children’s books have been made into movies. Lewis wrote many other books, including one entitled, Mere Christianity. In that book he tries to explain and “defend ...read more

    Breaking The Power Of Pride

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Apr 6, 2023
     | 4,125 views

    Believers may not often realize it, we are either centered on man or centered on God. There is no alternative. Either God is the center and we have become rightly adjusted to him, or we are the center and everything revolves around us. How is power of pride broken?

    There are basically two types of evil on this earth - natural evils which include earthquakes, typhoons, tsunamis, flash floods, etc. Things that take lives and bring devastation to humankind and the rest of creation. And then there are moral evils - evils that people commit, for example mental, ...read more

    The Original Ghost-Buster II November 12, 2006 Last week I spoke to you about a ruthless, cruel underworld system that wars against everything we value… our families, our health, our joy, and especially our eternal destinies.

    Faith In Action

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 4, 2021
     | 3,867 views

    Take the Word of God with you—whether you’re an older man, an older woman, a young woman or a young man, or a child. Let God’s Word fill you and move you. May it be said of us, “Those are people who really know what the Bible teaches. And they also put it into practice.”

    What does it mean to be a Christian? How would you answer that question? I think we’d start with what we believe. As Christians, we believe in the Bible as God’s Word. We believe that our God is Triune, that all people are dead in sin, and that we have new life through faith in Christ. As ...read more
