Why Did Michael The Great Archangel Say "The Lord Rebuke Thee"?

Contributed by Tony Abram on Oct 31, 2010

In my early ministry as a young evangelist, just starting out and in one of my first revival meetings, I heard the Pastor say while praying for a person the Lord rebuke thee. Some how this did not feel 100% correct. However, he being a senior minister a

Location. Location. Location.

Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 28, 2015

Each of us is either “in Adam” or “in Christ.” That is why I have called my sermon Location. Location. Location. Where you are – what your location is – makes all the difference in the world, and, more than that, it makes all the difference in eternity.

James Montgomery Boice says that this is “possibly the most difficult [passage] in the Bible.” Great! Right? One thing’s for sure: Paul’s argument in these verses is dense and tight. One commentator begins by defining some of the terms in the text in hopes that that will ...read more

Battlefield Images Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 27, 2011

The heavenly battle ranges even as we wander in the wilderness; which is a journey, not a retreat; the movement is always forward into the promise.

Can you believe it? I’m getting tired of the news. It’s so depressing. And for a news junkie like me, that’s saying a lot. Between the Middle East and the Congo and Iraq and North Korea we hardly have time to notice the murders in the Sudan and the economic chaos in South ...read more

Believe What The Works Tell You About Jesus (John 10:22-41) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 14, 2022

Jesus has told the Pharisees who he is. They just aren't willing to truly hear him.

The past several weeks, we've taken a break from John by studying the "Sons of God," mostly focused on the OT. [I made this its own separate series on sermoncentral, and today's won't make as much sense without reading that first]. Today, I think we are the place where we ...read more

Definitely

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 13, 2004

Funeral sermon for Michael Ellis, avid golfer and new believer. God has done definite things in Michael’s life, has provided a definite plan of salvation, and has given the definite gift of eternal life.

I know almost nothing about the game of golf. I do know that Michael Ellis was an avid golfer. Even there in the hospice it seemed to comfort him to watch golf on television. I’m not sure he appreciated it when I compared looking TV golf to watching the grass grow. He laughed, but I’m not sure ...read more

Christmas 2019

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Dec 2, 2019

You see... the manner in which the Word became flesh independent of any human consultation or fanfare. All things were created through him. Reality inheres in him.

What did Adam say to his wife on the night before Christmas?

The First Father Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

It is true that we must trace the fall of man to Adam, and there is no way to minimize the harm he brought to the human race by his sin. But the fact remains that somebody has to have been an example of righteousness in that beginning generation, and the evidence points to Adam.

Ronald and Nancy Reagan had something in common in their childhood, and that was that they both had fallen fathers. When Ron came home one day as an 11 year old boy he found his father flat on his back on the front porch, and there was no one there to help. He said, "He was drunk, dead to ...read more

The Man Who Was Not Born Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 24, 2021

How did man begin? Verse 7 makes it clear that he was not born, but was formed. He was molded as clay in the potter's hand. He was a product of what already existed.

An old preacher from the back woods was teaching a class of children about how God created man. He said, "In the beginning there was just nothin at all. One day God was fooling around with some mud, and before you knew it he had a man. He put that man up against a fence to dry there in the ...read more
