    Inertia: State Of Motion

    Contributed by Roger Nelmes on Jan 29, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,434 views

    The challenge I present to you today isn’t about scientific inertia, but rather spiritual inertia…and although today it is geared toward our young people, this principle relates to all of us.

    Inertia: State of Motion Every body perseveres in its state of being at rest or of moving uniformly straight ahead, except insofar as it is compelled to change its state by forces impressed. [Cohen & Whitman 1999 translation] Definition: "… a body at rest will remain at rest and a body moving ...read more

    People have many ideas about what makes a church "spiritual," and not too many of them are biblical. In today’s sermon we will find that a spiritual church is characterized by its devotion to Jesus Christ.

    What Does A Spiritual Church Look Like? Acts 2:41-47 Introduction Illustration: The Tater Family Some families make church their home. Others find other uses for the church. Take the notorious Tater family, for example. Perhaps you’ve met some of them. · The chief of the clan is old Dick Tater, ...read more

    The ancient practices of worship when priests would enter the holy of holies to meet with God required them to be found spotless...this sermon relates the tabernacle and tent of meeting to today’s forms of worship.

    (Intro Video-ark of the covenant-Holy of Holies) Ok, Some of you are probably wondering how Noah’s ark fit inside this small box. Did they shrink it? What’s up with that? So, I have to clear up some of your confusion. The ark of the covenant and Noah’s ark are two different things. Noah’s ...read more

    Christian are you easily in submission today to the people and government that God has placed before you? This is an area in which many fail. Let us seek direction from God’s word today.

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jul 17, 2014
     | 6,694 views

    Even when Jesus was denied in His own hometown, the mission of the Christian today is the same! Jesus commanded the disciples to GO and teach what they knew, and to show others that the choices they make today have consequences.

    A Prophet with no Honor Mark 6:1-13 Introduction - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” -- Key verse: Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” - This is ...read more

    Doomsday Shadow

    Contributed by Robert Sickler on Nov 5, 2014
     | 4,445 views

    What is happening in Christendom today is not an aberration in the history of the church, nor is it irrelevant in respect to what will happen tomorrow. What we do today will have a major impact on the Christianity of our children and our grandchildren.

    DOOMSDAY SHADOW ILLUSTRATION As the pastor was summing up the messages and information portion of the morning service he remarked that all church leaders and administrative personnel needed to attend a meeting Thursday evening. It was imperative that they attend. When Thursday evening rolled ...read more

    The Newness of the Old Old Story -God is into new things. Just think about the fact that He is the Creator. When something is created, it is new.

    Party On! Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 31, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,622 views

    We all know that there were parties last evening, some that lasted well into the morning hours. But I venture to say that these parties were not celebrations of religious faith, such as the ones implied by today’s Scriptures.

    Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God Party On! Today’s Scriptures are so brief that if our minds are not focused, we might not remember any of them. I’ve wondered if that was an act of mercy on the part of those who back in the 1960's put together the three-year cycle of readings, and saw New ...read more

    Psalms 27, 37, And 84 Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Mar 7, 2020
     | 7,807 views

    Passages in different locations are often interconnected in such a way that one avenue of thought springs from another. Although these psalms were not written with the intent that they be interconnected by us today, they collectively express a message relevant today.

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

    Walking Circumspectly

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 21, 2017
     | 6,474 views

    When we say we walk circumspectly we are saying that whatever we choose to do today, we are aware that there will be circumstances. Whatever we do today, we do with the knowledge that there will be future consequences.

    I have been reading through our church covenant as I mentioned last Sunday evening and I came across the statement that we engage to walk circumspectly. ____________, you’re a member of the church, are you walking circumspectly? I’ll admit, I had to look that one up to see exactly what it ...read more
