    The True Meaning Of Christmas

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Dec 11, 2024
     | 1,030 views

    Is Jesus pleased with the Christmas that are celebrated everywhere? Many people celebrate Christmas but do not know the true meaning of Christmas. John 3:16 shows the true meaning of Christmas.

    Every December, hundreds of millions, even billions of people around the world celebrate the birth of Jesus. Throughout history, no one's birth has been celebrated as widely as Jesus. In general, we are happy when friends remember and celebrate our birthdays. Do you think Jesus is happy with ...read more

    Sowing In Hard Places

    based on 16 ratings
     | 16,263 views

    SOWING BY ITS VERY NATURE IS ABOUT GETTING WHAT YOU WANT TO HAVE, NOT WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE. You sow into dirt because you want strawberries. Three principles that show how hard sowing can be: The principle of death; delay; and the principle of deceit.

    Sowing in Hard Places How many of you have heard a preacher somewhere tell you that you want to sow your seed into good soil so that you can receive a good harvest? Makes sense that we should sow our seed into the best soil possible doesn’t it? No farmer in his right mind sows seed into bad soil. ...read more

    "sit Down! You’re Rocking The Boat!"

    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,957 views

    The world tells us they don't want us "rocking the boat," but that's exactly what they need. The success of the Early Church was that they upset the natural order. Only if people are exposed to Jesus will they be saved. We must make that happen!

    "SIT DOWN! YOU’RE ROCKING THE BOAT!" INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A young man went fishing with his father and a friend in an open boat. He didn’t have his sea-legs yet. He’d get up and try to walk. He had poor balance, so the boat would see-saw violently. (The boat didn’t have good ...read more

    Removing The Veil: Deepening Our Relationship With God

    Contributed by Dan Grubbs on Oct 18, 2005
    based on 14 ratings
     | 11,140 views

    Since Christ is our High Priest, we have full access to the God of the universe. We must push through the veil of our sinful nature to enjoy the relationship with God that He intended.

    I’m sure all of us want to get closer to God. Today I’m going to discuss how we can get deeper in our relationship with the heavenly Father. I have some complex things to talk about, so if we need to discuss a concept, please don’t hesitate to ask. This can be pretty heavy stuff, so bear with ...read more

    Resurrection

     | 8,527 views

    These verses reveal the essential nature of the resurrection of Christ so far as Christian truth is concerned. There were people in Corinth who were saying there was no resurrection. Paul presents logical consequences of denying the resurrection:

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: D. L. Moody, the great evangelist of the nineteenth century, assigned some ministerial students to conduct evangelistic tent meetings throughout the city of Chicago.

    Where's Your Mind Set? Series

     | 6,548 views

    Often we want to make ourselves better but go about it the wrong way. Paul the Apostle gives us tips in how to put off the old nature and put on Christ’s character.

    In chapter 2, Paul focused on the error of elevating the mind above the knowledge of God, and focusing on taming the physical body as a way to righteousness. He chastises the use of external rules and regulations, especially those around following certain ritual days and abstaining from certain ...read more

    Marriage: Does Submission Imply Inferiority Of The Wife To The Husband? Series

    Contributed by Herman Abrahams on Jun 5, 2004
    based on 18 ratings
     | 5,981 views

    Does headship by its very nature imply superiority, and submission inferiority, or is headship and submission simply a distinction of functions, two different kinds of responsibilities which God has ordered for men and women?

    based on 56 ratings
     | 9,212 views

    It is good for Christians to judge--the right way. The modern understanding of "do not judge" is merely relativism. If there are no rights or wrongs, naturally one cannot judge. But there are rights and wrongs, and there is a right and wrong way to judg

    Barriers That Were Meant To Be Broken

    Contributed by Mark Mccool on Feb 4, 2005
    based on 25 ratings
     | 10,922 views

    Certain laws in our world are unbreakable, whether of mathmatics, physics, or natural science. Sin, circumstances, and life, often place barriers that seem impossible to break through, but to Christ, they are barriers meant to be broken.

    “BARRIERS THAT WERE MEANT TO BE BROKEN” Mark McCool TEXT: John 5:19-20 19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise. 20 For the ...read more

    based on 19 ratings
     | 5,133 views

    Self-pleasing is the most natural human instinct there is -- we want to climb the ladder. But it will stifle your growth! If you want this year to be different, trade in that attitude for a servant’s heart. *HANDOUT INCLUDED*

    Trade in “Self-Life” for “Servant’s Heart” “Son of man came not to be served, but to serve...” Life is essentially a series of trade-offs. . . everything plateaus when you’re unwilling to make the next trade-off.

    Returning Your Calls Series

    based on 28 ratings
     | 4,059 views

    God calls, and we are responsible to return His call. Yet we will only respond to that general call if God calls us specially, in a way that melts down our natural resistance to Him.

    Returning Your Calls (Romans 10:13-21) Intro 1. I do not particularly enjoy the world of phone message recorders. I am glad they exist, and I have one at the office. 2. Sometimes people leave important messages. 3. Sometimes the message is not crucial, but it communicates a piece of ...read more

    Murder One Series

     | 3,756 views

    #4 in Romans 8 series. This explores how positionally Christians have already died, and how we are to live practically - putting to death the deeds of our sinful nature. Blatantly Wesleyan-Arminian.

    Romans 8:12-14 – Murder One Several years ago, I watched a documentary on TV about sharks. I love sharks. I find them fascinating. They taste good as steak, too. Now, I learned an interesting characteristic about sharks that day that I’ve never forgotten. Most varieties of sharks never stop ...read more

    A Disturbing Gospel Series

    based on 20 ratings
     | 8,281 views

    This sermon encourages believers to embrace the confronting nature of the gospel message. Jesus said that the gospel I bring is a gospel of conflict and separation. It will disturb family lines and family ties. It will separate the closest relationships.

    Introduction: As Paul and his company respond to the Macedonian call, directed by the Holy Ghost, they entered into the district of Macedonia. Some historians say that Luke the beloved physician grew up and was educated in this area. This area was thriving metropolis, a trade center and sea port. ...read more
