Protecting God's Gift Of A Good Name Series

Why does God want to protect our reputation?

“Sticks and stones can break my bones but words can never hurt me.” Do you remember being taught that little saying after your feelings had been hurt by some bully at school? It does keep the hurt in perspective. Better to be called “four eyes” than actually get punched in ...read more

Don't Misuse God's Name Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Dec 5, 2000

Looks at the various way God’s name can be misused.

Very few things bug me as much as hearing the Lord’s name misused. When I was 15 I went to work on the tugboats out of Saint John New Brunswick and hanging around with sailors it didn’t take long before I had pretty much heard any words that I might have missed in high school. And so if you take ...read more

The Eternal Desire Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 8, 2021

We have lost this idea of reverence for the name of God, and the result is, God's name is not very special, but is common. It is thrown around like Tom, Dick, and Harry. It is so common that it is nearly impossible to feel any reverence when people use His name.

Vice Presidents have names just as presidents, but they seldom become names we remember. George was vice president under president Polk, but only a whiz in trivial pursuit would ever remember his last name. He had a chance to become president of the United States, but he lost that chance because of ...read more

Contributed by Timothy Peck on Jan 10, 2001

As followers of Jesus Christ, we carry God’s name with us wherever we go, whatever we do.

What’s in a name? In Shakespeare’s "Romeo and Juliet," Romeo asks that very question: "What’s in a name? A rose by any other name still smells just as sweet." Romeo would have us believe that names are just arbitrary ways of saying who we are.   But names are far more important than Romeo would ...read more

Zacchaeus PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Nov 4, 2025

Jesus sees beyond our past and reputation, calls us by name, and brings transforming grace and salvation personally into our lives.

Some of us walked in today wearing an invisible name tag. It doesn’t say “Hello, my name is…” as much as it says “Hello, my past is…” or “Hello, my reputation is….” Labels linger. Nicknames stick. Stories spread. And sometimes we start to believe them more than we believe the voice of God. We ...read more

Seven I Am's Of Jesus In The Gospel Of John.

Contributed by Tony Abram on Aug 4, 2019

Moses heard God's Name from the burning bush was 'I AM'. It is because He is not the great I was, or the great going to be but the Great I AM. It is because God is unchanging. Malachi 3:6 and Hebrews 13:8 Everybody thinks of changing Humanity and Nobody thinks of changing Himself.

Seven I AM'S OF JESUS in the Gospel of John. I. Jesus is the Bread of Life. John 6:35 (KJV) And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. A. Jesus is the Source of Life. II. Jesus is the ...read more

The Birth Of John The Baptist Is Announced At The Temple In Jerusalem Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 5, 2017

This was a dark period for the nation of Israel. The people had not heard a prophetic word from God in over 400 years, not since Malachi had announced the coming of Elijah ([1]Mal. 4:5-6). The spiritual leaders were shackled by tradition, and in some....

Seven "I Am's" Of Jesus Christ

Contributed by Rodelio Mallari on Dec 1, 2010

There is a big difference in being a mere fan of Jesus and a disciple of Jesus. A disciple enjoys a closer walk and relationship with his Lord and Master. On the other hand, a fan has an impersonal relationship and is often unknown by the person he follow

No Ordinary Man

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Oct 19, 2012

Jesus went to great lengths to validate his identity by using his name which is synonymous with God’s name. Jesus told his listeners plainly who he was by name but they did not make the connection. Have you mistaken His identity?

No Ordinary Man John 4:1-30 What is in a name? Well a name says a lot about a person and it is necessary to correctly identify one person from another. Just try getting over the border by using a name or abbreviated name and see what happens to you. Just the other day I needed the name of a ...read more
