    The Religious Wrong

    Contributed by Matt Williams on Feb 8, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,707 views

    Matt helps us see through this story how we can and need to engage religious people in our culture to help them understand the gospel.

    Introduction: It is our responsibility to engage the culture with the gospel. God calls us to send us out. In the story of Nicodemus, we see Jesus confront a religious person with the truth of what it means to be a member in the Kingdom of God. Matt helps us see through this story how we can and ...read more

    Describes how Christ is the central point to our belief system

    Christianity centers in Christ! Colossians 2:16-23 1. Christians follow Christ, not men’s rules. Contexually: Jewish legal system. Not under law…and we’ve never been under it. Make our own rules: Great ones for making rules. Not so good at making them. Florida: The state constitution allows ...read more

    Coming To The Altar Of Prayer

    Contributed by David King on Apr 24, 2008
    based on 15 ratings
     | 32,035 views

    If you will not faint you must pray. If you must pray then, you must pray aright. Nothing on earth is more frustrating than to invest in prayers that have no profit.

    COMING TO THE ALTAR OF PRAYER To every believer in Christ, prayer is a life-long business. Jesus commanded men to always pray and not to faint. Lk.18:1. Paul admonished all believers to pray without ceasing. 1Thess.5: 17. Prayer is dependence of earth on heaven. It is involvement ...read more

    A Picture Of Mother

     | 4,336 views

    In the days and times of the world we live in, it is important that Women can continue to serve as great Christian mothers. Possessing all that is needed to assist her husband and children.

    A Picture of Mother Proverbs 31:10-31 Intro The nineteenth-century artist James Abbot McNeil Whistler was most famous for the oil painting of his mother. Many art critics consider Whistler’s painting of his mother to be one of the world’s masterpieces. An inspired writer from Israel gave a ...read more

    The Liturgy And Our Learning Obedience Through Suffering Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 19, 2013
     | 3,722 views

    Just as Jesus learned obedience through suffering, so St. Agnes and all the saints; we celebrate this in every Mass.

    Monday of 2nd Week in Course 21 Jan 2013: St. Agnes Sacrosanctum Concilium Jesus offered up prayers and supplications during his mortal life, with loud cries and tears, to the one who could save Him from death–His eternal Father, and He was heard. And He learned obedience through suffering. ...read more

    Discovering God

    Contributed by Martin Holland on Oct 3, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,895 views

    As Christians we are on a journey that should cause us to discover the God we serve. I believe we find this to true in the biblical character Jacob's life in which I would like to make application from.

    Discovering God Genesis 47:7-10, 27-31 The journey of Jacob is an amazing story of a man finding his way through life with at the beginning trusting in what came natural for him. Somewhere along the way he truly discovers the God of his fathers. In many ways our lives are similar to the life of ...read more

    Dreams In The Bible - Part 2 – Some Dreams Series

    Contributed by Antonio Silveira on Apr 4, 2012
     | 4,517 views

    God has always talked to His children in dreams. Our culture has lost the significance and value of visions and dreams.

    We started last week by studying the dream that Jacob had at Bethel. Today we are going to see some more examples of dreams in the Bible. Introduction The ancients understood that the world of dreams opens a channel of communication between mankind and the spiritual world, and opens sleepers to a ...read more

    Do Not Be A Cino

     | 3,201 views

    Being a RINO or DINO will mess up your life, but being a CINO will destroy your eternity.

    As I read Catholic and Evangelical leaders trying to "exhort" their congregants to vote against Pro-Abortion candidates, I wonder if they have figured out that many will turn a deaf ear. Just as we have RINOs and DINOS we have RCINOs, BINOs, PINOs, LINOs, etc. To simplify it, CINOs or ...read more

    The Jaws Of Death Series

     | 4,737 views

    When the devil comes upon you like a roaring lion and tries to devour you God will deliver you from his snares.

    It seems that the earthly kings that Daniel served would never learn. We say last week how Nebuchadnezzar was so easily manipulated by people and so full of himself that he set an unjust law and followed through with an unjust punishment. But God delivered his faithful servants from the fire. We ...read more

    The Road To Easter Runs Through A Cemetery

    Contributed by Mari Larson on Apr 23, 2014
     | 4,850 views

    Good Friday was a necessary part of the Easter journey. The sermon shares a Leonard Sweet story about bell-ringing. (Each person who came to worship received a bell as they entered.)

    They thought it was over. Jesus was dead and buried. The religious folks sighed with satisfaction. His followers wept in grief. But they were wrong! They were all wrong! From this side of Easter, we can call Friday “Good” because we know that it was not over, all had not been ...read more

    God Does Want Humans To Be One In Mind And Heart Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 13, 2014
     | 4,717 views

    Faith gives us a heightened respect for nature so that we "discern in it a grammar written by the hand of God." God's Fatherhood makes it possible for us to live together with one heart and one will.

    Thursday of the 11th Week in Course 2014 Lumen Fidei Where did we get the idea that God is our Father? Surely the definitive statement of God’s fatherhood is in this prayer we learned from Jesus, the Son. Still, we didn’t fully know what a father is until Jesus came and established ...read more

    A Prosperous Hand Is Seldom Pious

     | 2,832 views

    Should we not resist to flaunt wealth or even seek it as a pastor when the world and even poor Christians think we lack integrity loving mammon rather than God?

    "Piety and prosperity seldom go hand in hand..." "We live in a day when the temptation to the indulgence of the flesh is very great. Luxuries are common. Piety and prosperity seldom go hand in hand, and in many a case the prosperity that piety and power have brought has been the ruin ...read more

    Walk By Faith By Pastor John Mateos Ong

    Contributed by John Ong on Dec 5, 2017
     | 4,807 views

    As the Bible said in Deuteronomy 7:9, He keeps His covenant of love to thousands of generation for those who love and keep his commandments. So if we strive to keep our faith to Him, if we walk by faith with Him, we will be more like Him each day.

    Take a moment to imagine if God was like some of the world’s worst leaders, those who killed someone that doesn’t obey them or their program. Can we just imagine if God was like Hitler who killed almost all of the Jews, or like Mao Tse Tung who does not only manipulated and tricked his people just ...read more

    A Model Of Ministry

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 9, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,337 views

    We must learn to become all things to all men, that we might indeed WIN/GAIN some for Christ to SAVE.

    A MODEL OF MINISTRY. 1 Corinthians 9:16-23. The Apostle Paul has argued that, as their minister, he had every right to expect a wage from the church in Corinth (1 Corinthians 9:14). However, and somewhat surprisingly, he then turns the idea on its head: ‘Nevertheless, we have not used this ...read more
