    First Baptist Church September 22, 2002 >I< John 3:22-36 When you think about words, the word "DOWN" doesn’t have many positive meanings.

    Contributed by Pat Cook on Feb 7, 2006
    based on 9 ratings
     | 7,279 views

    This is about John the Baptist and his doubts about who Jesus was. This sermon gives permission to doubt as long as the believer goes to look for answers.

    Luke 7:18-23 – Room for Doubt and Room for Growth Today we are looking at a story not mentioned very much in sermons. The problem with the story is that it paints a hero of the faith with a quality that we aren’t comfortable with him having. The hero is John the Baptist, and that quality is ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,370 views

    If most people haven’t read God’s word, they aren’t seeing Christ’s command, and there’s nothing in their hearts for the Holy Spirit to help them understand. So the peace that Jesus promises us is lost for the lack of trying.

    In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Jesus says that those who love him will keep his word; and those who don’t love him won’t keep it. Those who keep his word will be filled with the Holy Spirit, who will teach us and guide us according to the will of the ...read more
