    Meeting The Need Series

    Contributed by Keith Broyles on Dec 3, 2007
     | 3,988 views

    As we begin Advent we need to be aware of the needs of those around us. It will only be when Christ is born in their lives (as God uses the Body of Christ) that they might find a faith like ours.

    When I was in seminary there was a man in Dallas who got his “Fifteen Minutes of Fame” over the period of a couple of weeks. He was on the Dallas news almost every night. Why? Well he said that he had uncovered a message from space aliens through the static on his television. The aliens, on a ...read more

    The hope and anticipation of Jesus’ return motivates us to be watchful and to live each day of our lives as a faithful servant of God.

    Matthew 24:36-44 “Be Prepared—Watchful” INTRODUCTION Jesus is coming again! Not only is this the subject of the gospel text for today, it is also the great hope of the Christian Church. We as Christians hope and we anticipate Jesus’ return with an eager longing. Anticipation can be life ...read more

    No one know when Christ will come again. Are we ready to give an accounting of our lives if Jesus comes now? "What if" we knew the day and moment of our death. Would we change the way we live our lives?

    What If…….? Scripture: Matthew 24: 36-44 O God, who comes among us and who is still yet to come, as the days grow ever shorter and the nights ever longer, we cling to the promise of the light that is coming into the world. Help us to trust your promises. Let every heart here prepare a room for ...read more

    A sermon for dvent Sunday intruducing the themes of Advent

    I suppose I should start the sermon this morning by wishing you all ’Happy New Year.’ But before you think that I’ve completely blown it, let me explain – at least for those who weren’t here last Sunday evening. Today is new year – not that we’ve fast forwarded to Jan 1; not is it Chinese New Year ...read more

    Keep Watch & Be Ready

    In Jesus’ last sermon before He was betrayed, He stressed the need to keep watch and be ready for His return, emphasizing it with three parables. Are you doing what He expects from you? This ought to be our concern today.

    We’ve just read a portion of Jesus’ last sermon to His disciples before He was betrayed. • It stretches from Chapter 23 to 25, with a large part of it about His second coming. • This is the main theme of His long message. It is understandable, since He is about to leave them. • Jesus needs to tell ...read more

    First Advent Sunday Year A Remembering that in the Second Advent we will not know the day or time of it.

    When I read over the words of the Gospel reading today from Matthew, I thought of an old Henry Fonda movie I recently saw. The movie is called Fail Safe, it’s the story of a nuclear alert gone wrong. A flight crew aboard a U.S. bomber group of B-58 Hustlers if memory serves me correct. They think ...read more

    Jesus gives us a peak at what the future holds.

    If you look all around you, there are signs of what is coming in the days ahead. The leaves are off of the trees, the wind is getting colder, and the sun is setting earlier. If you walk in to Wal-Mart, the shorts are on clearance and the scarves, gloves, shovels, and ice scrapers are in prominent ...read more

    The 1st Sunday in advent is a time to focus on the second coming of Christ and making sure we are prepared.

    It’s hard to believe but we are already into the Christmas season, and I’m not talking about the shopping season that began on black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. I am referring to the Christian season we call Advent. As I’ve already mentioned we are in the first Sunday of Advent which ...read more

    There are many misconceptions about the second coming. Those misconceptions are common because people fail to see the Second Coming through biblical glasses.

    Clearing the Air: Common Misconceptions About the Second Coming Introduction: I heard this one country song by this man named John Connelly. John’s big hit was a song entitled “Rose Colored Glasses.” I have never looked through rose colored glasses, but I can only imagine how they might distort ...read more

    While we sing and talk of one coming on a sleigh, we must remember that Jesus will also be Coming to Town but rather than on a sleigh pulled by reindeer, he will be in the clouds and rather than by reindeer, he will come with power and glory!

    INTRO Isn’t it amazing what Christmas has become? How the sweet calm picture of the birth of one named Jesus has become so much about rush, money, and envy. ILL: Listen to this parody of the Christmas season that I read this past week: "And there were in the same country children keeping watch ...read more
