    Freedom From Religion Series

    A challenge to avoid being Pharisaical in the church.

    The Apostle Paul had an interesting style of ministry. Paul would travel to a city, get to know a few people, plant a church, then stay around as long as it took (usually a couple years) until the church was self-sufficient. Then he would pack up and move to a new city and start the process all ...read more

    To create interest for supporting the ministry of Asbury.

    Last Sunday I shared with you what I thought God was placing on my heart regarding Asbury for at least the next couple of years. A direction that I believe is based on three key Scriptures; Mark 12.18-21, Matthew 28.19-20 and John 15.8. Taken together, these three passages tell us that God wants ...read more

    Today we are going to look at a very cruel giant, the giant of religion

    INTRO: A young girl became a Christian in an exciting revival at her church and was baptized the closing Sunday morning. That afternoon she ran through the house singing and dancing. Her sour grandfather rebuked her with these words, “You ought to be ashamed of yourself. You just joined the ...read more

    WE can put our focus in the wrong place and come out looking silly and being ineffective for our Lord.

    INTRODUCTION • SLIDE #1 • AS we continue looking at some of the things that can ensnare us as we strive to life for Jesus, we are going to look at a subject that can really creep into our lives over a long period of time. • I think this is one of the traps that can slowly take hold of us if we are ...read more

    Invitation To A Table For Two In The Wilderness

    Contributed by Ian Johnson on Feb 19, 2013
     | 5,406 views

    The call to come inward to the table is often ignored because many don’t see the value of such fellowship; their aim is to be doing where as the aim of the table for two is simply “Being” in His presence.

    The Christian faith is about relationship it’s not about religion or outward displays of Church life that are just mere forms of religious expression. Jesus spoke very firmly to the religious of the day, who felt they were doing the right thing in preserving religious tradition but ignoring ...read more

    Help For The Hypocrite

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on Jan 15, 2014
     | 8,337 views

    As we better understand what a true Christian is, we’ll have a better understanding of what a hypocrite is. 3 distinctives of genuine Christians: Real Christians Are Forgiven Sinners, Are Not What They Used To Be, and Are Becoming What They Will Be.

    Help for the Hypocrite Matthew 23:23-28 Have you ever caught a salesperson in a lie? They tell you how much you need their car or product and how it will change your image, maybe even change your life!

    Pharisee Or Holiness?

    Contributed by Craig Benner on Oct 22, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,863 views

    There are many who would argue that a Pharisee and one who believes in holiness are one in the same. I beg to differ. True holiness affects the external and the internal. It affects the acts and the attitude.

    Are you a Pharisee or are you Holiness? Let us see if there is a difference and determine to understand why some people have trouble differentiating between the two. Pharisee = a person in the role of religious service who believes that his or her title and/or office automatically make him or her ...read more

    The Pharisees did not experience life change because they had a different belief. Don't replace the relationship with a religion. Don't make the outward more important than the inward.

    RECAP – John 20:24-28. We saw last week how Thomas finally saw Jesus alive and uttered the most profound statement of faith – “My Lord and My God!” (1) LET GO of our Agenda – don’t cling on to the demands we set. (2) CHOOSE to have faith - faith is a choice ...read more

    Misplaced Zeal

    We are impressed with zeal. Certainly the Jews of Jesus day had tremendous zeal; passion for what they believed. But zeal and passion can easily be focused on the wrong thing.

    Passage: Matthew 23:1-39 Intro: We are impressed by zeal, passion 1. see our Mormon friends riding their bike es 2. on way to seminary, remember seeing a Moonie selling candy bars in the freezing rain. 3. we even have a grudging admiration for zeal that causes a radical Muslim to kill ...read more

    Weightless Faith

     | 4,025 views

    We hear Jesus say “My yoke is easy, My burden is light” (Mt. 11:30). And we choose to run with that “easy” life! We love to forget that He also said, ““If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me” (Mt. 16:24)

    Weightless Faith Philippians 3:17-21 Is the Christian life only about avoiding wrong? Is an “Avoidance” lifestyle all that God expects of us or is there more? Like bringing Glory to God in faith by taking action! Serving others! We hear Jesus say “My yoke is easy, My burden is ...read more

     | 5,222 views

    In this sermon I wish to encourage people to be real for God and to seek a relationship with Jesus Christ which is what everyone needs. We need to be careful about how we as believers treat those outside of the faith and those new to the faith.

    Sermon March 11,2007 ‘How to be a bad Christian’ Years ago ,a British missionary asked the former Prime Minister of India Dr. Gandhi If he would consider becoming a Christian.

    Examining what it means to live a "real" and authentic Christian life

    The text reveals four characteristics that describe a "real" Christian - a believer who not only talks the talk, but walks the walk. By asking four questions we can give ourselves a realtiy check. 1. Are you HONEST? (v. 3) We must be honest in the way we live our lives. Message paraphrase: "But ...read more
