     | 5,134 views

    I THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 1 THE MODEL CHURCH I.

He was concerned with their spiritual welfare. This great pastor of churches held them ...read more

     | 3,550 views

    A. WHY MUST YOU BE IN CHURCH EVERY SUNDAY? 1. Because of the example of the early church. a.

    The Great Commission Convolution Of Same Sex Marriage

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Feb 22, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,825 views

    Does the Bible teach that the only way it can help all people face tomorrow in the power of God’s love is by becoming a diverse and inclusive congregation – multiracial, multigenerational and multicultural – offering a warm, non-threatening environment to all?

    The enemy has been very successful seducing churches to choose a different path to fulfill the Great Commission by becoming “Open and Affirming / Welcoming” rather than becoming places of supernatural transformation. Many churches see themselves as a place that, no matter where one is on their ...read more

    Because Of The Resurrection Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,362 views

    What does Christ’s resurrection mean to you personally? This is the real question. Every person must make Christ’s resurrection personal to his or her own heart.

    Because of the Resurrection Matthew 28 www.crbible.com/sermons Introduction: 1. The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead is the bedrock upon which the Christian faith stands. 2. “If Christ be not risen,” Paul said in 1 Corinthians 15, “then is our preaching vain, and your ...read more

    The Need For Spiritual Change

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 28, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 9,144 views

    When we listen to and obey our Lord Jesus we are received into a new spiritual family.

    THE NEED FOR SPIRITUAL CHANGE. Matthew 12:22-50. The spiritual blindness of the people opposed to Jesus is demonstrated in their reaction to His good works. Their refusal to hear His message is echoed in their speaking out against Him. A demon-possessed man, who was physically both blind and ...read more

    God Is Love.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,513 views

    We may not see God in His own Person, but where there is love, there is the evidence that someone has been born of the Spirit of God.

    GOD IS LOVE. 1 John 4:7-21. Every Sunday as I was growing up in Scotland, I would hear the minister of our church repeat these words from the beginning of 1 John 4:7 - “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God.” This is one of the tests of true Christianity. We cannot claim to have ...read more

    No Fear! Series

    Contributed by Lanny Smith on May 24, 2022
     | 1,624 views

    People are often motivated primarily by fear or greed. But love is the best motivator.

    What motivates you? Cynical approach used in sales: Fear and greed. If we believe that we’re completely on our own in the world, then these two impulses serve as effective motivators. As followers of Christ know that there is a more powerful motivator: Love. At the same time, we can lose sight of ...read more

    Free Lunch!

    Contributed by Val Black on Nov 25, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,442 views

    There are always claims of a "Free Lunch" but none of them prove to be true, with one exception. It's a real meal and it really is free.

    (This is a sermonette and/or illustration, that was taken from one of our Gospel tracts. It could be considered tongue-in-cheek. It simply explains the Marriage Supper of the Lamb and how to qualify to participate in it.) Someone once said there is no such thing as a “free lunch.” There are ...read more

    A look at why God saves by grace and how that should impact what the church looks like.

    - The "reverses the line" story off Preaching Today. “FOR THAT VERY REASON”: Grace “reverses the line.” - 1 Timothy 1:16. - This verse continues with the thought from verse 15 that we discussed last week: that Paul considered himself the worst of sinners. - The overall ...read more

    A Wedding Invitation

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Aug 11, 2015
     | 7,000 views

    Our Heavenly Father wants to invite you and me to a wedding. It is not a regular invitation and it is no ordinary wedding. The flight is paid for and the destination is Heaven. The reception is to take place on earth.

    Message: Summer can be a very busy time as we try to squeeze in vacation, visits to family and friends and respond to all those invitations. For most of us the wedding invitation is still one of personal importance and can sometimes cost us more than just a wedding gift. In some cases a wedding ...read more

    Called Out: The Role Of The Church

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 14, 2022
     | 2,096 views

    Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church, and no one else (Matthew 16:13-19). We have strayed from what the Scriptures teach about the church's purpose and responsibilities and instead allowed the world's opinions take precedence over what we are to be and do.

    When we hear the word "church", most of us think of a building or membership in a particular denomination with standards, beliefs, and guidelines for worship, order, the reading and use of Scripture, and sermons. The problem is that far too many people now view the church as a symbol ...read more
