    Planning For Tomorrow

    Contributed by Neil Olcott on Jun 22, 2005
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,650 views

    Subject: How should we plan and hope for the future? Complement: By developing sense of peace that comes from a relaxed concern based on God’s sovereignty in our lives. Main Idea: We need to involve God at the center of all we do.

    INTRO.: Every year when New Years day comes on January 1st, people commonly reflect over the last year and make resolutions for the new one. Like the artist who takes away an old drawing they had been working on for a long time and then pulls out a virgin white perfectly clean sheet of paper to ...read more

     | 9,754 views

    Those who bear fruit have more freedom and fulfillment in life.

    In the Bible, a fruitful life is described as one that is producing good things. God’s Words teaches a lot on this topic so it must be very important to God. God wants to bless your life. He wants you to be so blessed that He produces fruit in your life that will go on blessing you and the ...read more

    An Invitation Not To Be Refused

     | 33,405 views

    Isaiah addresses the demoralised people of Israel now exiled in Babylon inviting them to return to the Lord and freely receive salvation and hope.

    AN INVITATION NOT TO BE REFUSED I read of a visiting preacher who arrived at the church and read the poster announcing him as a "preacher with the unchanged message". He had a nasty moment when he thought that the news had got out that he had only one sermon to his name! Charles Spurgeon got ...read more

    The custodians of Temple worship were exploiting true worshippers coming to God. As custodians of the gospel we need to make sure we don’t do the same thing

    John 2:13-22 - Exploiting the Message of Salvation A few years ago as we were leading up to the new millennium, I watched in disbelief as a famous television evangelist made the following statement to the thousands who packed the auditorium in front of him „X ¡§The Lord has told me it is only those ...read more

    This is about allowing the Lord to have his way with you.

    “May I help you?” That is a familiar greeting when we walk into a store. Anyone who has ever worked in a retail environment knows that question well. When we were in Haiti, we went to an open market to look at some souvenirs. The merchants were most eager to help us with purchasing pottery, ...read more

    Situation in Babylon The situation in Babylon has changed since the last chapter and the last of Daniel.

    Cleansing The Temple

    based on 159 ratings
     | 27,535 views

    Why did Jesus go first to the Temple and then begin to cleanse it? What does he need to cleanse from our temples?

    CLEANSING THE TEMPLE The shouts of Hosanna still rang loudly in ears of the citizens of Jerusalem on that first Palm Sunday. A large gathering of people were on hand to see Jesus as he rode into the city as the King of Peace on the back of a colt. Jesus continued down the dusty streets while ...read more

    What Crime Did Jesus Commit? Series

    We see the context that sets up the reason Jesus was rejected by the Jews. He called for integrity, challenged their authority, claimed to be deity. We then move from the reasons to the purpose - our justification.

    Almost 2000 years ago, Jesus asked His followers a question: “Who do you say I am?” It’s still the fundamental question of life. And the answer creates controversy. It’s one reason why Mel Gibson’s film, The Passion of the Christ, is so controversial. This is a film that has had the audacity ...read more

    The gift of prophecy overshadows the gift of tongues; the language of love reigns supreme over all the gifts.

    WHAT LANGUAGE DO WE SPEAK? In just a couple of weeks Sharon and I will be in Corinth, Greece, the place where all of this church business happened.

    Sermon compares Jesus’ act of cleansing the Temple with the way He feels about many of our churches.

    Introduction: Three weeks ago we looked at the Compassion of Christ.

    Look at This! Your King is Coming to You! Luke 19:1-48 Sometimes children, teens and adults like to make fun of others. Was there something about you that other kids made fun of?
