    Gifts & Service Series

    Contributed by Adam Deibert on Nov 19, 2006
    based on 14 ratings
     | 8,587 views

    Loving others means giving of ourselves for the benefit of another. What we choose to give is a reflection of how much we really love them, & ultimately reflects how much we love God.

    This is the last sermon in our series, “Loving others…and letting them know it.” Throughout this series, we have seen the importance of unconditional love, and we have learned practical yet meaningful ways of expressing this love – from a handshake, to a kind word, to time spent together in ...read more

    This sermon gives four ways to develope a servant’s heart. 1. Develope a volunteer spirit. 2. Have a determination to help. 3. Commit to follow-ship. 4. Start meeting the needs around you.

    Developing a Servant’s Heart If you are truly striving to serve God you must develop a servant’s heart. I think as a Christian we all want to be faithful servants. Remember what it says in Matthew 25:23. “Well done good and faithful servant, you were faithful with a few things, I will put you ...read more

    A sermon on why we are to be watchful for Jesus Christ’s return and the many opportunities that He provides for us every day.

    Are You Alert Matt. 25: 1-12 I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving and gave thanks to God for all the blessings that He gives us each and everyday.

    The Midnight Cry

     | 12,772 views

    When you consider the coming of Jesus Christ, what do you see taking place in your life? The prophecies regarding the coming of Christ found in the word of God was never meant to bring you thoughts of panic, doom or discouragement.

    THE MIDNIGHT CRY The recent events, taking place in the news, continue to challenge my heart with the fact that Jesus is coming soon. Although I am troubled with the terror that has gripped our nation, I am not discouraged or surprised with what the Lord has planned for this world. As believers ...read more

    What a tragedy when people fail to make the decision to obey the gospel. We will study a story of a tragedy of another delayed decision in Scripture.

    “The Tragedy of the Delayed Decision” Introduction: Stephanie will be glad to tell you that I am bad about putting things off. It’s not that I mean to most of the time, I just put things off sometimes until the last minute, it is not a habit that I am proud of. Without due dates and ultimatums I ...read more

    The Horrors Of Hell

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Mar 26, 2007
    based on 35 ratings
     | 10,362 views

    Jesus taught more about Hell than He did about Heaven. In fact, for every mention of Heaven, He mentions Hell twice as often. I want to look at four things that Jesus reveals about the horrors of Hell.

    One of the tragic facts revealed by Jesus is that the majority of the human race will spend eternity in Hell. Jesus pleads, in Matthew 7:13-14, “Enter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide, and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter by it. For the gate is ...read more

    Let’s examine three key points to this parable about talents, money and the judgment. 1- God entrusts His property V. 14 2- God requires accountability V. 19 3- God punishes the wicked Vs. 28-30

    INTRO.- Talents, money and judgment. Do these sound bad? In the light of this scripture they sound somewhat bad. ILL.- A young Bible college student was witnessing in Atlanta, GA. As he approached one house an elderly gentleman was sitting in his chair on the front porch. He asked, “Are you a ...read more

     | 2,566 views

    Jesus calls us to take risks for Him. What have we risked today?

    GRACE AND RISK Matthew 25:14-30 INTRO: Jimmy Draper, in his 1984 SBC address, spoke of visiting missionaries who risk their lives for the sake of the Gospel. He noted how little he, by comparison, risks. Most of us can say the same thing. Has Christ called us to risk for Him? I. A PARABLE OF ...read more

    The Reward Of Faithfulness

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Aug 12, 2002
    based on 119 ratings
     | 19,984 views

    The parable of the talents has more importance than we often understand. We used this sermon as a way of introducing gift centered ministries.

    OPEN: We use numbers all the time without knowing their significance or their meaning. For example: How many feet in a mile (5280 feet). Do you know why? The term mile come from the Latin word "mille" - meaning 1000. To the Romans it was the distance a soldier could cover in 1000 paces - about ...read more

    Gaining Christ's Gratitude

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Aug 13, 2002
    based on 59 ratings
     | 34,998 views

    I’ve never thought of God as being "grateful" for me, but the intriguing thing is - He is grateful, but only when we meet certain expectations. What are they?

    One soldier stationed on an island of the Philippines during WW II told this story: “Although the region was secure, sometimes the enemy tried to infiltrate our food storage area. One such adversary, dressed in GI clothing, once worked himself into the noontime chow line. Our camp cook spotted ...read more

    Every believer has the potential to be powerful if they are willing to invest their time in an intimate relationship with Christ.

    The Cost of God’s Power March 2002 Matthew 25:1-12 “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.

    Israel Inherits Promises Of Old (3 Of 3) Series

    Contributed by Eddie Snipes on Sep 2, 2002
    based on 54 ratings
     | 6,755 views

    Part 3 of 3 Many claim that the church is now Israel. After examining the scriptures, we cannot draw that conclusion without denying the accuracy of the Bible. This section looks at the promised and fulfilled inheritance of Israel.

    Israel Inherits Promises of Old (Part 3 of 3) For every curse against the sin of Israel, God follows it with a promise if they repent. It is frequently claimed that once Israel rejected Jesus as their Messiah that God cut Israel out of His plan. From this point of rejection, those who believe this ...read more
