  • Make A Difference With Your Life

    Contributed by John Woelfel on Aug 14, 2006
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,362 views

    What does God expect from us in this life? What does He expect from us based on what we are able to do? This message tries to answer those questions by looking at a couple of teachings from Jesus.

    What we want to know this morning is how God has uniquely made us so we don’t waste our lives. One of the main ideas from the series we went through is that if you do something meaningful with your life, you will be a minority. Most people just go through life trying to survive. They go ...read more

    The Parable of the Ten Virgins gives us excellent insight into the condition of many of today’s churches.

    THE PARABLE OF THE TEN VIRGINS 1 "Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 "Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 "Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, 4 "but the wise took ...read more

    When the big blackout hit, were you ready? Are you ready for God’s next move?

    Were you Ready? I was going to preach a different sermon today, but the events of the recent blackout combined with an experience I had during it, led me to change my topic for this Sunday. As it is, it will also permit me to do a lot more research on the topic I had originally planned. I don¡¦t ...read more

    Was Jesus teaching us that we can "buy" our way into heaven by doing good works?

    OPEN: One night a woman dreamed that she was having a conversation with God. She was angry about all the suffering and evil she saw around her, so she complained to the Lord. “God, why don’t You do something about all this?” God gently replied: “I did. I created you.” APPLY: Over the next ...read more

  • The Horrors Of Hell

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Mar 26, 2007
    based on 35 ratings
     | 10,690 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

  • Lesson 2: Stewardship

    Contributed by Elmer Towns on Apr 11, 2007
    based on 5 ratings
     | 1,540 views

    Because God called us, we have an opportunity. “A man . . . called his own servants” (v. 4). “Faithful is He who calls you” (I Thess. 5:24).

    “For [the kingdom of heaven is] like a man traveling to a far country, [who] called his own servants and delivered his goods to them. And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey. Then he who had ...read more

    Delays have dangerous ends!

    The Fate Of The Unprepared Matthew 25:1-13 In this parable of the Ten Virgins Jesus is continuing the solemn declaration of the uncertainty of the time of His return and of the necessity of being ready for such an event. This is why the opening word "then" is important. It is the link binding ...read more

    An outlined story of the Parable of the Talents. Let’s not become "hole-diggers".

    Pleasing the Father. Matthew 25:14-30 > Tonight I want to do something that is a little uncharacteristic of me, I want to tell a story. Actually, this will be the “retelling” of a Bible story.

  • He Is The Lord

    Contributed by Dr. Jerry N. Watts on May 2, 2007
     | 2,379 views

    Gleaned from John Ortberg’s Book - "If you want to walk on the water, you have to get out of the boat". This teaches us that we must understand exactly "who" the Lord is.

    HE is the Lord Matthew 25:14-30 > Dr. Tim Lahaye tells the story (which I have repeated many times, but which perfectly illustrates a point); it’s about a husband who was receiving marital counseling. The obvious truth was that He and His wife were at odds with each other and were in the mode of ...read more

    A sermon that wraps up a morning of personal testimonies - giving biblical references on how to testify and why we must testify.

    We all have a sphere of influence in our lives. That sphere is made up of those people in our lives that we have some influence over. And one of the strongest ways we can influence someone is through a personal testimony. That is when you tell someone else how something, or somebody, has ...read more

  • Grace And Risk

    Contributed by Ed Wood on Nov 1, 2006
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,756 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
