    "Lord, Why Did They Have To Die?" Series

    Job was a very righteous man. In fact the Bible says that he was blameless and that he feared God and stayed away from evil. A messenger shows up and gives him all kinds of bad news. Your oxen are dead. So are your sheep. Now your servants are dead.

    “Lord why did THEY have to die?” Luke 7:11-16 The time of year was Christmas and my family and I were gathering together to celebrate. We were at my mother’s home in Arkansas. My sister came in; she had her son with her. He was about to turn one. I asked where her husband and ...read more

    Paul was handpicked by God to be His messenger of the Gospel to the Jewish and Gentile world. Along the way, Paul preached and built relationships with many people. As we look at some of the events on his first missionary journey, we can learn from the people he met and the lessons he taught.

    The Uniqueness Of Mark's Gospel: John The Baptist In The Wilderness Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 19, 2023
     | 1,785 views

    Focusing in on Mark chapter one verses 1-20, and we’ll be reflecting on three key events in this first portion of Mark. We’ll be looking at the ministry of John the Baptist as he prepared for the coming of Jesus, then the baptism of Jesus, and Jesus’ calling his first disciples.

    Last night I was listening to some beautiful music. And I was just thinking, this music is a gift from God. It really is. Who is this creator who made everything? How are we to understand who he is? Of course, we know we understand from his word, but I was thinking, and I wondered: What can we ...read more

    Let me ask you: how many of you have ever driven in thick fog? You cannot see ahead, you cannot see the road signs, and you cannot see other vehicles. As I describe this, what feeling are you currently experiencing?

    Well, good morning Newlife Church, and yes, 2024 is almost upon us. Man, this year seems to have flown by, and we’re already in December, preparing for the carol service tonight. I know many of you, like me, are wondering, “Where has this year gone?” It felt like January was just yesterday. I also ...read more

    Waiting for God doesn’t mean sitting around doing nothing… it means doing what we can, while we can, as best we can…while always being careful to not run ahead of God

    “What I Can Do While Waiting On God” Acts 1:1-4 OPENING JOKE: A group of travelers were being made to wait on their airplane, which was late due to another flight being canceled. The crowd looked horrible and impatient as the time went on and on. Finally an angry passenger pushed his way to the ...read more

    As Christians we can see the world physically decaying and spiritually degenerating with this sin. However, we do not need to be pessimistic, because we have a blessed hope. Brighter days indeed lie ahead for the whole creation.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: A number of years ago researchers performed an experiment to see the affect hope has on those undergoing hardship. Two sets of laboratory rats were placed in separate tubs of water. The researchers left one set in the water, and found that within an hour they had all ...read more

    When you are going through the winter of your soul you can do three things to make it through. 1. Fix your eyes on Jesus 2. Endure to the end 3. Think about the joy that is ahead

    “The End of Winter” When I was growing up in northern Minnesota, January and February were the coldest months of the year. February was the hardest month for most of us. Christmas was long past and too quickly forgotten. The New Year’s parties, with the laughter, had long since faded into ...read more

     | 9,452 views

    After our exile in the dark places of Egypt we are summoned to return to the place we came from, chastened and up-built by the experience which we have been through, and equipped for whatever may lay ahead.

    THE FLIGHT INTO EGYPT. Matthew 2:13-15; Matthew 2:19-23. We have already established that Joseph Ben-David was a dreamer (Matthew 1:20). Although his angelic visitations took place in dreams, in visions of the night (Job 20:8), they were not nebulous apparitions. A real, tangible, substantial ...read more

     | 2,898 views

    When going into a new situation, it’s always good to be prepared for what’s going to happen ahead of time. In this passage, we see how people typically respond to the gospel in one-on-one evangelism.

    Pastor Jim’s blog: http://brushforkbanner.blogspot.com As you know, we’ve been in this passage for three weeks now. There’s a reason for that. The reason is that I think this is one of the best passages on personal evangelism in the whole Bible. The Bible is filled with personal evangelism ...read more

    What the devil has meant for harm, God is going to turn around for the good of all those who Love Him. Also for those who are going to come to know Him and love Him in the coming days ahead!

    Stand and see the day of Salvation! John 10:10-11 NKJ 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.

     | 4,035 views

    This message looks at the account of someone who was given a promise by God that he would receive a great blessing. But he, along with his wife, took matters into their own hands, and tried to get ahead of God, leading to strife.

    In our message this morning we’re going to focus on how we need to have patience when following the Lord. Hebrews is a book of the Bible that frequently talks about following God in faith, and we read that those who are patient will be able to “inherit the promises” (Hebrews 6:12). In Hebrews ...read more

    Dwelling on the past will put our journey into the future into jeopardy. Focusing on the future, where God is already waiting, will produce victory in life. We need a clearer vision of what lies ahead in order to be truly victorious in Christ.

    Reflect on the Past but Get a Vision of the Future Sunday. December 30, 2012 By Rev. James May As I began to put together the Powerpoint presentation for this message, the first picture that I found to use was so very appropriate.

    This sermon (1) examines how four categories of people interacted with the first coming of Messiah (2) draws lessons from their experiences and (3) applies those lessons to decisions we must make now and in the days ahead.

    Luke 1:26-38 12-20-15 I recently read about an atheist who went on a hike on a remote nature trail. He was enjoying the scenery and wild life so much that he lost track of the trail. When it was time for him to go back, he realized that he was hopelessly lost. In that state of panic, he did ...read more

    Appearance Of The Lamb Of God

    It is clear to us all that John the Baptist came ahead of Jesus Christ to prepare the way and to make things right. Whatever position you hold in the Church, don’t be too shy, don’t be a rebellious type

    Aim: Jesus has been around for almost thirty years but nobody really heard about him except when he was twelve years old when he was seen in the temple and nothing was heard about him until this time he appeared at the river where John was baptizing. People are in a hurry to appear so soon today, ...read more
