    The True Vine Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 16, 2021
     | 6,002 views

    Jesus the True Vine is the Only source of spiritual life. For us to know if we are a true disciple or a fake disciple we need recognise the difference between the Father bringing us through a difficult pruning process, or the Father cutting us off.

    Message John 15:1 I Am The True Vine There are seven “I am” passages of Jesus … the last of which is found in John 15:1-6 (read) I suspect there are plenty of us who remember the “I am the vine; you are the branches” part.

    Up Goes The Moisture, Down Comes The Rain

    Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 21, 2021
     | 4,700 views

    The Holy Spirit, and revival, have similarities to the processes of rainfall. Just as moisture must evaporate up before rain, so prayers & praise must go up. When heaven reaches the saturation point, you can expect rain!

    UP GOES THE MOISTURE, DOWN COMES THE RAIN Job 36:27-28; 1 Kgs. 18:43-44 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: WHOPPER OF A LIE 1. A young boy came home from his first day of school and confessed to his father that he told a lie. The father asked why he did it. 2. The boy said, "Well, dad, when they ...read more

    Two men think about life as they face the end of their journey on earth. Has life been meaningless or relevant? Do they look forward to a joyless process of degradation, a painful descent towards the valley of death, or to something more glorious beyond the horizon?

    [Sermon preached on 11 November 2018, 25th Sunday after Pentecost / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] A man of about my age—sixty, give or take a few years—sits down, takes up pen and parchment, and starts to write. Or perhaps he calls his secretary and starts to dictate. He senses that his life is ...read more

    Death Is Not The End

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 5, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 20,581 views

    Jesus interrupted a funeral procession to bring life from death. Jesus deals with our universal human problem of sin and death once and for all at the cross. We no longer have to fear death. For the believer, it's but a passing from this world to the next

    Luke 7:11-17 Death is Not the End Today’s story is a shocker in many ways. If you have ever lost anyone to death—and many of you have—you may experience a little jealousy with today’s story. You may wonder why Jesus didn’t interrupt your loved one’s memorial ...read more

    The Bible is NOT like any other book; its words are ALIVE! David compared God’s words to the purest gold, once it has finished going through the smelting process. The Word of God, like gold, is Trustworthy, Indestructible, Flawless, and Valuable.

    TRIED IN THE FIRE SEVEN TIMES Ps. 12:2-4,6 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A mother was teaching her 3-year-old the Lord's prayer. For several evenings at bedtime she repeated it after her mother. One night she said she was ready to solo. 2. The mother listened with pride as she carefully ...read more

    Double Exposure

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 8, 2023
     | 2,400 views

    The photographic process is mysterious; a piece of film is exposed to light and images are left. Our lives are like that film. We present what we want others to see, but God sees beneath it. A 2nd exposure will happen - now or later!

    DOUBLE EXPOSURE Eph. 5:8-16 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Squeaky clean 1. One young woman decided to try clean her purse by throwing it into the washing machine—with the rest of the laundry.

    But if we choose to run to God and rely on His strength to help us, we can not only defeat our opposition, because God has been making us better, stronger and wiser through the process of life. Believers are built for this.

     | 931 views

    Sanctification is the process by which a believer is set apart for God’s purposes, living a life that reflects His holiness. To live a sanctified Christian life means to intentionally separate oneself from sin and to pursue a life of purity, guided by the Holy Spirit.

    LIVING A SANCTIFIED CHRISTIAN LIFE By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Thessalonians 4:3-4 "For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality; that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and ...read more

    Sermon # 41 - Set Aside Selfishness Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 1, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 247 views

    Selfishness when left unchecked can become the cause for division and rift in close relationships. Let’s learn some valuable lessons on how to identify selfishness, and the ways to handle it so we become more Christ-like and mature in the way we relate with others.

    We read in Ephesians 4:14-15, “Then we shall no longer be children, carried by the waves and blown about by every shifting wind of the teaching of deceitful people, who lead others into error by the tricks they invent. Instead, by speaking the truth in a spirit of love, we must grow up in every way ...read more

    Sermon # 50 - Which Side Are You On? Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 19, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 471 views

    As Jonah fretted and fumed that God withheld His judgement on the people of Nineveh, God saw a people who were ignorant and could not decipher between right and wrong. God calls the church to disciple their members, and grow them in maturity so all will be found in God’s eternal Kingdom.

    Let us thank the Lord for the many lessons we learnt from the life of Jonah. We have come to the final part of this study. When I began this series, I did not expect that it would be such a long one, and I am grateful to the Lord for all that we have learned in this process, and all glory to God ...read more
