    What Difference Does Jesus Make

    Contributed by Keith Andrews on May 20, 2007

     | 7,784 views

    I wonder then, what do we think Jesus does? Who do we think he is? Is he someone that we come to only when there are problems, or do we check in with him everyday regardless of how life is treating us. I believe that we all need to come to terms with the

    This sermon looks at the Deadly Sin of Sloth. Often when we think of sloth, we think of people who are lazy and aren’t doing anything with their lives. In a word, they’re lazy. When most of us picture the idea of sloth we picture someone like Frank. So wh

    Remove The Roots Of Bitterness

    Contributed by Dennis King on Feb 25, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,235 views

    Most people think they are totally and unequivocally free of bitterness. However, that’s not necessarily the truth. You see, bitterness creeps in, slowly and is easier seen in other people rather than in yourself.

    Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, brawling, and slander, along with every form of malice. That statement comes from Ephesians 4, verse 31. The Greek word for bitterness is “Pikria” which translates to “Sticky.” No matter what has been done to you, how bad, how often, or who from, bitterness ...read more

    Uses the Black Eyed Peas’ song Where’s the Love as an outline for looking at the Christian concept of love (points out a few errors in the Black Eyed Peas thinking from a Christian perspective).

    Introduction There’s a song currently towards the top end of the music chart which I have listened to over the past month or so, on the radio as I drive back and forwards to Manchester each week and it causes me to think. You see initially the song appears to be quite Christian in its outlook and ...read more

    Who here today can remember back to when the first Father’s Day took place here on this earth? Of course, when Adam became the first human son of the Father!

    Born To Love

     | 12,516 views

    When we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we have the capacity to love in the very same way God loves. But so many Christians don't understand what it means to love like God loves.

    John 3:16 is a verse we learn very, very early in life, even before we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior. My Mom and Dad, and I’m sure your Mom and Dad too, repeated this verse to us as children. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him ...read more

    What Will Heaven Say About You?

     | 5,362 views

    Each day we are creating our heavenly reputations. This message looks at the heavenly reputations of Enoch, Moses and David. It then looks at some of the heavenly reputations available to us today.

    We’re going to begin in Proverbs, chapter 22, verse 1. “A good name- a name that is held in high regard – is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favor rather than silver and gold.” Notice the verse says a good name is chosen. How is it chosen? A good name is chosen by what you do, ...read more

    The Power Of A Renewed Mind Series

     | 3,070 views

    The mind is a battlefield where thoughts, decisions, and actions are birthed. A renewed mind is key to living a victorious Christian life. Without renewing our minds, we remain trapped in worldly patterns and unable to fully embrace God’s will.

    Title: THE POWER OF A RENEWED MIND By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Romans 12:2 "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God."

    Do we let earthly value supersede godly worth? Even if it is something negative in us which can come out as a glory to God. Are we willing to lose all that God has placed in our lives for His glory? What do we do with what has been placed in our hands?

    Opening illustration: A young girl of about 5-6 years old taught me how to worship God. The down side of her was that she had ‘downs syndrome’ which eventually became her strength. Who could ever think that she would become a model who would even teach the mature in Christ to worship ...read more
