    Keepers, Weepers, Losers, Finders

    Contributed by David Roth on Mar 2, 2015
     | 5,605 views

    Proper 17 (A) We are lost in sin and lost in ourselves. But Christ has redeemed the world. Therfore, those who lose their old selves shall find themselves in Christ, who is Life indeed.

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. “Keepers, Weepers, Losers, Finders” Jesus tells us that to be His disciples, we must deny ourselves, and take up our cross. Now, whatever ...read more

    What Did Jesus Mean By "Whoever Loses His Life For Me Will Find It" Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jul 19, 2013
    based on 3 ratings
     | 34,321 views

    A look at Jesus' difficult (and frequently ignored) teaching that "whoever lose his life for me will find it." What does that mean? What does it look like to live that out?

    WHAT DOES "LOSE YOUR LIFE TO FIND IT" MEAN ANYWAY? It means to pursue Jesus’ path even at the expense of my desires. - Matthew 10:39; Matthew 16:25; Mark 8:35; Luke 9:24; Luke 17:33; John 12:25. - This is a foreign concept to many Christians. In the American church we largely ignore this ...read more

    Trouble At A Place Of Revelation

    The enemy of our souls tries to snatch away the words of our confessions of faith while they are still in our mouths, robbing us of our newly received blessing.

    TROUBLE AT A PLACE OF REVELATION. Matthew 16:21-28. The place was Caesarea Philippi (Matthew 16:13): a place of revelation, and a place of decision. Which of two realms will we choose? Which of two religions? Who is it that we are following? Jesus asked the disciples, ‘Whom say ye that I am?’ ...read more

    What if this text is about not being afraid; not being afraid of death. About not fearing the suffering places in our lives that can often feel so much like death. For the moment we start to fear death, it will not long before we start to fear life. Updated August 2020.

    “But he turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man” (Mat. 16:3).

    Theme: Get behind me Satan Text: Ex. 3:1-15; Rom. 12:9-21; Mat. 16:21-28 An important question we all need to ask ourselves is how a person becomes a Christian and what is expected of a Christian? How to become a Christian is relatively easy to answer and is illustrated in Peter’s confession ...read more

    Take Up My Cross And Follow Me

     | 7,414 views

    Though we fall again and again, it is the getting up that marks the true child of God. So, we offer our lives in surrender to Christ’s purpose. The waters of our baptism renew in us the willing spirit that says, “Yes” to our own taking up the cross.

    In the famous words of the late American news commentator Paul Harvey, Matthew 16:21-28 is “the rest of the story”. It is a continuation from Matthew 16:13-20, in which Peter acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God. Now Jesus is telling his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem to ...read more

    In our Scripture today, Jesus gives us keys on redefining our understanding of money and the role that it plays in our life. How you handle your money impacts your relationship with God.

    Redefining Wealth Matthew 6:19-33 A wealthy, older
gentleman had just recently married a lovely young lady 40 years younger than him, and was beginning to wonder whether she might have married
him for his money. So he asked her, "Tell me the truth: if I lost all my money, would you ...read more

    Following Peter's confession that Jesus is the Messiah, the Lord gives sobering instructions on the challenges of discipleship.

    Three Questions For Disciples Matthew 16:21-26 Introduction 1. We have just heard Peter make the greatest confession: Jesus is the Messiah. This has been the aim of Jesus all along.

    The Romans consider the Christians of their day to be Atheists. This sermon considers Polycarp and his stand.

    Polycarp Quotes: “Though you do not see Him, you believe, and in believing there is unspeakable joy.” “He who raised Him [Jesus] from the dead will raise us, if we do His will, and walk in His commandments, and love what He loved.” “The person that has love is far from ...read more

    Whose Call Will You Answer? Series

    We all have to hear the call of the world and the call of our Savior. It’s up to us, though, how much we listen, and how much attention we pay to each call.

    Calling -- Whose Call Will You Answer? Since school is starting (or already has started), I wanted to begin a new series on calling and what it means to be called. Before we can really get into the meat and potatoes of calling, I felt it important to first describe the different callings at work ...read more

    A lot of people are depressed and sad because they've been made to suppress who they really are in order to fit into who people perceive them to be. Whilst their true personality is crying out for expression their perceived personality is crying out of fr

    Contributed by David Scudder on Apr 1, 2012
     | 7,776 views

    We are sharing the grace of God when we are imitating the God of grace. So, the question is, How did Christ display grace to us? There is no greater display of the grace of God than the Cross of Christ.

    Purpose: To describe who Christ's real followers are. Aim: I want the listener to imitate Christ's willingness to give His life. INTRODUCTION: The grace of God is so complete and full that we could never exhaust all there is to know about it. In an attempt to learn more about God's grace as we ...read more
