    Topic: The Parable Of The Bridesmaids

    Contributed by Arsenio Segismundo on Jun 24, 2022
     | 1,546 views

    What is parable? It is a story in place of another to reveal a complex story into a simple one.

    Topic: The Parable of the Bridesmaids Text: Matthew 25:1-13 Mat 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. Mat 25:2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Mat 25:3 They that were foolish took ...read more

    This parable calls us to prepare for Christ's second coming. It emphasizes the importance of dedicating our full attention to this significant event. Let us wholeheartedly embrace this timeless message and confidently prepare for the glorious day when Christ returns for His church.

    The Preparation For Eternity

    We are called to be faithful to God and obey him. Being faithful is the meaning of waiting for the Lord to come. There will be no second chances when Christ returns.

    We are called to be faithful to God and obey him. Being faithful is the meaning of waiting for the Lord to come. There will be no second chances when Christ returns.

    Prepared

    I am not talking solely about Christ's return today. We should live our lives in such a way that every day people see Jesus in us. And then, when Christ returns, we’ll be unashamed before Him.

    I want to start off today by naming a few random items. As I name these items, I want to know what do you think of as I name these things. A flashlight. A battery-operated radio. A cell phone charger. And bottled water. What do you think of? Usually when we gather items like these it is ...read more

    This is the first in a series on the ten virgins. Five were wise, five were foolish. Which are you?

    The Wise and Foolish at the Bridegroom’s Coming (Part One) Text: Matthew 25:1-13 OPEN WITH PRAYER AND THANKSGIVING It seems like Eschatological talk (that is, talk about the end times) is ramping us these days.

    Message 13 - 1 Thessalonians Chapter 5:19-20 – Do Not Quench The Holy Spirit; And Use Your Gift Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jan 1, 2023
     | 2,117 views

    Paul commands the Thessalonians not to quench the Spirit. We will consider that and the ministry of the Holy Spirit, and the use of gifts given to every believer. Biblical prophecies are not to be despised through neglect or misappropriation. Victory in storms.

    MESSAGE 13 - 1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 5:19-20 – DO NOT QUENCH THE HOLY SPIRIT; AND USE YOUR GIFT {{1Thessalonians 5:19 Do not quench the Spirit. 1Thess 5:20 Do not despise prophetic utterances.”}} Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. (KJV) Do not quench the Spirit. Do not despise ...read more

    Keep Your Lamps Burning Series

    This message looks at the believer’s responsibility to remain faithful in sharing the light of Jesus and proclaiming the gospel. It also views the horrible fate that awaits those who do not have the light of Christ abiding within them.

    This evening’s message is entitled, “Keep Your Lamps Burning,” and it’s taken from what is called, “The Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins.” Back when I was in high school, our choir once sang an old Negro spiritual that went like this: “Keep your lamps trimmed and burning, for the time is ...read more

    In weddings today, you can depend on something going wrong almost every time!

    Every young girl has this deep wonderful desire to have the perfect wedding. I do not want to crush these desires for these young ladies, but I do not believe there is such a thing as a perfect wedding. That is, you can: • Bring the pros in to conduct the wedding • Spend thousands of dollars on ...read more

    An Open Door Of The Ark

     | 3,010 views

    The society of Noah’s day was completely depraved; it was violent, inclined towards evil, hateful of any trace of goodness, constantly developing evil Imaginations, and except for 8 souls whom God had granted grace to, completely God rejecting.

    An open door of the Ark Psalm 12 1. Genesis 7:1-5 2. (Matthew 25:1-13) And the Lord said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.

    Will You Be Ready?

    Contributed by Scott Nichols on Jan 18, 2019
     | 12,305 views

    What if in the next moment - even as my words fall upon your ears - Christ returned with the shout of the archangel and the trumpet blast? "Faithful and true would He find us here, if He should come today?" Would you be ready?

    The hymn we have just sung asks a pointed question. A question that I fear too often we dismiss in our daily lives. With all the concerns of living in the present moment - with all of the accompanying joys or frustrations - we fail to give much thought to the final moment. That moment when time, as ...read more

    The Voice Of The Bridegroom Series

     | 58,056 views

    In prophecies about the falls of and Jerusalem and (figuratively) Babylon, actually separated by centuries, the writers said that the voice of the bridegroom and bride will not be heard any longer in each city. What did these prophecies mean?

    Note: There is a companion sermon to this one, titled THE VOICE OF THE BRIDE. I preached them on two consecutive worship assemblies, with this sermon being first, and THE VOICE OF THE BRIDE, following shortly afterward. Both sermons are on Sermon Central. THE VOICE OF THE BRIDEGROOM I. ...read more
