    A Matter Of The Heart Series

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on May 25, 2016
    based on 6 ratings
     | 13,547 views

    This is part of The Sermon on the Mount series and deals with the beatitude "Blessed are the pure in heart." In this sermon we look at 3 aspects of having a pure heart and a 3 part test to determine whether we have such a heart.

    Sermon on the Mount “A Matter of the Heart” Matthew 5:8 Americans are increasingly concerned with purity. We want pure water to drink, pure air to breathe, and pure food to eat. But as important as clean air, pure water, and pure food are, there’s a purity that we overlook, the ...read more

     | 4,503 views

    In verses 19 and 20 Paul warns the Thessalonians not to despise spiritual gifts. Verses 21 and 22 describe the constant duty of the Christian. He must use Christ as the standard by which to test all things.

    1/10/19 Tom Lowe Lesson 23: Don't Quench The Spirit Or Despise Prophecies, But Don't Be Gullible Either (1Thessalonians 5:19-22) Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:19-22 (NIV) 19 Do not quench the Spirit. 20 Do not treat prophecies with contempt 21but test them all; hold on to what is ...read more

    When Christ warned the disciples that he’d be leaving them, they didn’t take the news very well. He left them with words of comfort and admonition to help them overcome this test in their life.

    INTRODUCTION • As we continue our series today, we will dig into an area of testing that is one most, if not all of us, have experienced or will, at some point in our life experience. • Have you ever been in a situation where you felt alone and abandoned? • What did that feel like? • The thought ...read more

    The Lesson Of The Alabaster Box.

    Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Jul 20, 2019
     | 10,619 views

    There is a something to learn about giving hidden in in the lesson of the Alabaster Box. Two giants that mock God's people are frustration and depressed. Are you in a season of testing? Refuse to fall into the trap of frustration and depression!

    THE BROKEN ALASBATER BOX? TWO GIANTS: FRUSTRATION AND DISCOURAGEMENT By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com (This lesson will be a series.) I HAVE A CANDLE BURNING UP FRONT.

    Managing Your Money

    Money is a gift from God. It is put in our hands as a tool and as a test. So don’t love it, don’t live for it, don’t trust it and don’t hoard it.

    [I’ve taken the major pointers of this sermon from Rick Warren’s sermon on Setting Financial Goals - Growing through Goal Setting Part 2, May 26-27, 2007.] If you go around asking people “What is the greatest need you have?” a high chance the answer is money. • We spend so much of our lives ...read more

    Jesus fasted or ate no food for 40 days after He was baptized. While there, the Devil came and tempted or put Jesus to the test in three different areas. Jesus triumphed, and so can we!

    Based on a message preached at First Baptist Church, Chamois, MO, on 1-22-2023. This is not an exact transcription. Introduction: Last week we looked at how John the Baptist came preaching, far away from town, much like he might do here if he lived here. To give a kind of local flavor, he might ...read more

    The first Adam was tested by Satan and was defeated. The New Adam, Jesus, faces three temptations from Satan and is victorious. We can learn what was really behind those temptations to live sanctified lives!

    TEMPTATION! WHEN IT COMES TO DEALING WITH OUR HUMAN NATURE AND SIN, WE KNOW THAT “HINDSIGHT IS 20/20!” YES, IT IS EASY TO SEE SIN FOR WHAT IT IS WHEN WE ENCOUNTER AND DEAL WITH ITS EFFECTS FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD. WHAT IS NOT SO APPARENT IS HOW WE GET TO THIS POINT. WHEN LEFT UNTREATED AND IT ...read more

     | 358 views

    Life is full of trials—situations that test our faith, patience, and resilience. As believers, we are not promised a trouble-free life, but we are assured of God's presence and power through every difficulty.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: James 1:2-4 Supporting Texts: Romans 5:3-5, 2 Corinthians 4:8-9, 1 Peter 1:6-7, Hebrews 10:35-36, Job 23:10 INTRODUCTION: Life is full of trials—situations that test our faith, patience, and resilience.

    Jesus criticized the Pharisees for their inability to discern the signs of the times (Matthew 16:3). The signs of our times seem to be indicating an increasing hostility toward Christianity, which has lost its place as the nation’s primary guiding ethic.

    You can run but you can’t hide. That’s certainly true today, amen? They not only know where you live and work, but probably know what kind of car you drive, when you take a shower, what’s your favorite flavor of ice cream or your favorite show on TV, what station you listen to in the car. They ...read more

    Everyone Abandons Jesus. It’s really remarkable when you think about … just how many people abandoned Jesus at His greatest time of need.

    At the end of today’s service, I’ll be offering you an opportunity to respond to Christ. In fact, some of you may want to grab your worship guide right now and find the communication card. There, you’ll find an opportunity to be a part of next Sunday’s baptism service. Place your name there and ...read more

    Prophetic Utterances Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,098 views

    Christians are listening to prophecies on the Internet and must be taught how to test those messages. This teaching instructs Christians on how to operate in the prophetic and how to evaluate prophetic ministry so that we receive the benefits and avoid the pitfalls associated with it.

    Our subject today is prophetic utterances. How do we benefit from prophecies given in the Body of Christ, and how do we avoid the pitfalls that people often fall into in the exercise and application of this gift? The gift of prophecy is a powerful tool in the church today. But powerful tools must ...read more

    Facing troubles and tests in our daily walk drains our energy. We wonder if we can even make it to Friday. Three things from I Peter show us how to get there.

    May, 2007 How to Make it to Friday I Peter 1:17-23 INTRODUCTION: In this scripture Peter is writing to Jewish Christians who were driven out of Jerusalem and scattered throughout Asia Minor and to all believers everywhere. This writing took place as Christians were being tortured and killed for ...read more

    But Nails Hurt! Series

     | 13,076 views

    Nails were distributed to the congregation, so that they could test: if you wish to endure, you have to endure some pounding. Holes may be punched in you, too. But if you persist, ultimately you will be built up.

    If you really want to grow, it’s going to cost you. If you truly expect to be built up, there will be some pain involved. No growth ever takes place without pain. That’s a law of life. That’s not negotiable. No pain, no gain. No hurt, no growth. No rough edges, no building up. If you truly ...read more

    No matter how long it takes, and how many times we might fail the test, if we just keep on being faithful, God will bring us to a place of victory and fruitfulness. Faithfulness is all that matters in the end.

    The Slow Learner Sunday, April 06, 2008 By Pastor Jim May If you are like me, and I think that most people are, then you are sometimes a little slow to learn the truths of the Bible and the ways of God. Sometimes I just don’t get it. It’s not that I don’t believe, but this little old “peanut” ...read more
