    As Christians we are on a journey that should cause us to discover the God we serve. I believe we find this to true in the biblical character Jacob's life in which I would like to make application from.

    Discovering God Genesis 47:7-10, 27-31 The journey of Jacob is an amazing story of a man finding his way through life with at the beginning trusting in what came natural for him. Somewhere along the way he truly discovers the God of his fathers. In many ways our lives are similar to the life of ...read more

    1. Importance of a Name Shakespeare asked “What’s in a name” a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. Many people, like Shakespeare, would say that a name is not important; however, the importance of a name is paramount. In the Bible the name of a person described their ...read more

    3rd in a series with practical application as a whole church family. A study of Mt 25 and what the Church should do about it. Concept borrowed from a series from a Tim Cook, a fellow preacher.

    (today, the Church brought food to be given to a local ministry for the needy. The next week, people will bring a special offering, collected in water bottles, to build wells in India) Intro: Let me reset the context for this series today.

Introduction: • There are several words that can describe what I want to talk with you about this morning. Some of them include: Calm, Tranquility, Quiet, Peace I.

     | 259 views

    The tares are still alive today with growing false doctrine and practices. At the end of the age they are taken away to leave the righteous for the Kingdom on earth. There is a lot of application to Israel here in the Tribulation and after. The church at Smyrna is also considered.

    PARABLES OF THE KINGDOM – THE SECOND – THE WHEAT AND THE TARES – Part 2 of 2 In this Part 2 of the Parable of the Wheat and the Tares, we will concentrate on the prophetic side of the Parable and take a look at the church at Smyrna.

    The Nugget Of Truth Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 13, 2005
    based on 13 ratings
     | 5,475 views

    What are some modern day ways that we can fall into the same error as the Hebrews? Also - carving down to the nugget of God’s truth - and - letting the Spirit live out the Law of God in our lives.

    How do you sum up a letter like Hebrews? I see two ways that the author takes this chapter to make his final points to a people who were afraid to leave Judaism behind and fully plant their feet in Jesus. His first point is that they are not really leaving all they knew behind - but they will see ...read more

    In John 4:5+ we find a wonderful example of Jesus using an everyday moment to speak about the joy that He personally manifests. This sermon makes comparison to John4:5+ with a modern day twist.

    This sermon contrasts what the first church did and what the modern church did when thier governments told them not to speak at all in the name of Jesus. It also demonstrates what we need to do now.

    Judas … The Fallen Disciple Series

    based on 35 ratings
     | 17,676 views

    Judas was given all the privileges of being a disciple, yet he still did not understand the need to totally submit to Jesus. As modern disciples we need to be sure that our heart has been captured by the Lord.

    Judas … the fallen disciple Does anyone here know a person called Judas? It doesn’t have to be a friend or relative ... just anyone. Someone you have met? I doubt we would have. In fact to test my theory I used the internet to look up the popularity of this name. This is the response of one ...read more
