    Are you joyful, thankful and submissive? Then you are being controlled by God’s Spirit. This filling is a continual experience, for we constantly need to be filled with God’s all sufficient, inexhaustible supply of spiritual power if we are to continually

    Opening illustration: Story of a famous oil field called Yates Pool ~ During the depression this field was a sheep ranch owned by a man named Yates. Mr. Yates wasn’t able to make enough on his ranching operation to pay the principal and interest on the mortgage, so he was in danger of losing his ...read more

    We are in the end time as prophesied in the Word of God.There is a mark of the Beast, warned about in the word of God. Someone’s doubt cannot take anything out of God’s word. It is recorded in many places of the Bible.

    THE MARK OF DESTRUCTION Beloved, You are welcome to the hour of the trumpeter. We really appreciate your interest in this end time message,which God is using to wake up the Church, and prepare the Saints for the return of The Lord, Jesus Christ.

    Jesus said we should love one another. But why bother to tell us to do it? Shouldn't it come naturally to us? Apparently not. So, what do we need to understand in order to obey this command that Jesus gave us?

    OPEN: Several years ago there was an Olympics held in Seattle Washington. And the special event that was talked about for years afterward was the 100 yard dash. Lined up on the starting line were 9 contestants, waiting for the gun to go off. At the gun, the started their run… kind of. For ...read more

  • Marks Of The Faithful Church

    With what God has entrusted to us, are we faithful not only as individuals but as a church toward God. Are we willing to faithfully pursue Him and walk with Him no matter what! God put the church in the world; Satan tries to put the world in the church. Be faithful!

    Opening illustration: I wonder what Christ or even the apostle Paul would say if they were to visit our churches today. What a beehive of activity! Committees, programs, entertainment without end. But worship is often downplayed, services are cut back, prayer meetings are eliminated. Some call ...read more

    In the previous sermon we talked about the signs of the end times. Some folks do not enjoy studying the signs of His coming.

    Illus: Listen, when I go down the road and I see a sign that tells me there is a sharp curve up ahead or a steep hill, I find these signs helpful. But sometimes signs are confusing. Illus: Two preachers are standing by the side of the road, holding up a sign that reads, “The End is Near! Turn ...read more

    This can be a difficult chapter to understand! It becomes difficult because some of the things the Lord talks about in this passage are BEFORE and some are AFTER the tribulation period.

    You can not take Matthew 24, 25, or Mark 13 and say this is how things are going to happen chronologically. Everything that the Lord said would happen, will happen, but not in the sequence He gives them. Notice, as the disciples were walking with Jesus past the Temple, they commented on the ...read more

    This scripture passage takes place on a Sabbath morning in the city of Jerusalem at the temple site.

    Perhaps there is a line of people getting ready to enter the temple for worship. The line leads to a small square room lined with metal collection boxes. The boxes have metal horns extending out of them so the giver can walk by these boxes and drop their coins in these long horns that lead to ...read more

  • The Book Of Mark #60

     | 1,232 views

    In the four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, there are over 60 references to the scribes, and over 80 references to the Pharisees.

    Most of these references were made by Jesus, Himself. No doubt these people were awkward for Jesus to have to deal with. Jesus had a desire for all souls to be saved from their sins. Nevertheless, Jesus did find Himself having to rebuke the Scribes and Pharisees for the way they lived their ...read more

  • The Book Of Mark #59

    In the previous sermon, the Chief priests, lay leaders, and the Sadducees came to the Lord with some questions.

    They did not come wanting to know what the scriptures taught, they came using the scriptures as a means of trying to trap the Lord Jesus. But the Lord said to them in verse 24, “…Do you not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?” A lot of folks think they ...read more

  • The Book Of Mark #58

    Most preachers enjoy the preaching of God’s Word. Why shouldn’t they…they have one of the greatest and most rewarding jobs that a person could have.

    But every preacher has to deal with people who attend to hear him preach the sermon, but do not come to hear God’s Word preached! They come to find fault with what he preaches. For example, • One Bible preacher was preaching a sermon from the Word of God, and he stated that a lot of the ...read more

  • The Book Of Mark #57

    In 1858, the Illinois legislature, using an obscure statute, sent Stephen A. Douglas to the U.S. Senate instead of Abraham Lincoln, although Lincoln had won the popular vote.

    When a sympathetic friend asked Lincoln how he felt, he said he felt, “Like the boy who stubbed his toe: I am too big to cry and too badly hurt to laugh.” (Source unknown) All of us know that feeling. Life is filled with disappointments. Most of us will do anything to keep from having ...read more

    In September of 2005 John Roberts went before the Senate Judiciary Committee to be examined to see if he was qualified to serve on the Supreme Court as the Chief Justice.

    Many liked the comparison he made with being a judge to being an umpire in a baseball game. He stated that he felt that as a judge, he is not a player of the game, but it is his job to call the FOULS and STRIKES! All the evidence indicates that he will make a good chief justice. But that can not ...read more

  • The Book Of Mark # 15

    The calling of the twelve disciples is significant. These twelve men were special in that they were chosen to be the twelve disciples that the Lord Jesus Himself was going to teach and train.

    These twelve men had opportunities that no other men who ever lived on this earth have had. Each disciple that Jesus called into the ministry had special skills. Many of them were fishermen, and He took their skill as fishermen and made them “fishers of men.” Let’s look at two things: I. THE ...read more

    Sometimes it is difficult to make a very good impression.

    Illus: An actor went to see a new agent one day and said, “You must have a look at my act; it really is innovative.” The agent gave him the nod, so he flew up to the ceiling, circled the room a few times and landed smoothly on the agent's desk. The agent said, “So you do bird ...read more

    This is a very interesting passage of scripture. I have asked the Lord to help me make it as clear as possible.

    Illus: I do not want to be like the woman who had a cat that she truly loved, named “Pumpkin”. She cherished this cat more than anything in her life. She had to go on a business trip and she had to leave Pumpkin home for her husband to take care of while she was gone. She left Pumpkin reluctantly; ...read more
