    The final message in a 7-Part Series, Shift - A New Way of Thinking. In Matthew 5:43-48, Jesus challenges His disciples to follow His example and love their enemies.

    God Is Love • Matthew 5:43-48 • Easter Weekend INTRODUCTION: God is not focused on MODIFYING BEHAVIOR by His laws. He wants to TRANSFORM LIVES by His love. This is the power of the resurrection! I. God loves without DISCRIMINATION. (v. 43-45a) Many read Jesus’ words here and ...read more

    The Sermon On The Mount (Part 14) Series

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Dec 9, 2019
     | 4,679 views

    Today we start chapter six. Throughout chapter five we saw the phrase, "you have heard it was said". Jesus no longer starts out that way. Jesus isn't challenging contradictory teachings but contradictory practices. Today's lesson is on why we do good deeds.

    THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT (part 14) Matthew 6:1-4 Today we start chapter six. We'll notice that Jesus doesn't introduce his topics as he has up to this point. Throughout chapter five we saw the now familiar phrase, "you have heard it was said". But Jesus doesn't start out that ...read more

     | 3,667 views

    In the Beatitudes, Jesus said that those who were persecuted were blessed because great was their reward in heaven. In today's section, Jesus explains how we are to respond to those who persecute and say evil things against us-we are to love them.

    THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT (part 13) Matt. 5:43-48 In the Beatitudes earlier in the chapter, Jesus said that those who were persecuted were blessed because great was their reward in heaven.

    Sermon # 16 - Hinder No One Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 11, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 672 views

    Jonah’s disobedience became a hindrance the entire crew of unbelievers aboard that ship. This is a caution to us that as believers we should walk in total obedience to God and not become a stumbling block to those outside the church.

    We read in Jonah 1:13, “Instead, the sailors tried to get the ship to shore, rowing with all their might. But the storm was becoming worse and worse, and they got nowhere.” (GNB) As we continue these studies on the life of Jonah, there are many lessons that we can learn from the same. Though Jonah ...read more

    Sermon # 18 - Peace-Makers Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 904 views

    Jonah’s disobedience to God resulted in total chaos and turmoil for all aboard the ship. God’s call to His children is to be peace-makers wherever we are. The word of God cautions those who cause disunity and discord of serious consequences.

    We read in Jonah 1:15, “And they lifted Jonah up and threw him out into the sea; and the sea ceased from its raging.” (AFV) The background to this verse is that a sea-voyage which commenced peacefully, with the hopes of a tranquil journey, was suddenly confronted with a furious and violent storm. ...read more

    Sermon # 41 - Forgotten Purpose Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 14, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 576 views

    Jonah did not perceive God’s heart and thereby failed to rejoice when God’s purposes were accomplished in Nineveh. We as a church must have our hearts beat as one with that of God’s and fulfill His purposes to reach the lost and bring them into God’s Kingdom.

    We read in Jonah 4:5, “Jonah went out east of the city and sat down. He made a shelter for himself and sat in its shade, waiting to see what would happen to Nineveh.” (GNB) In this series we are studying the life of Jonah and comparing it with the church of today, thereby trying to learn some ...read more

    "The Power Of A New Affection"

    Christians in America have become Spiritual Hoarders: Buried Alive with stuff and debt. Our pursuit of “treasures” and the accumulation of stuff hinder our pursuit of God.

    Cornerstone Church October 6, 2013 “The Power of a New Affection” Matthew 6:19-21 “Mrs. Bertha Adams was seventy-one years old when she died alone in West Palm Beach, Florida on Easter Sunday 1976. The Coroner’s report read, ‘Cause of ...read more

    “Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” (Phil. 3:13-14)

    The theme for today’s sermon is building a new nation in Christ. This theme highlights the importance of the Lenten season and recounts the message of the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. For by this offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified. (Hebrews 10:14) ...read more

    A New Heart For A Fresh Start

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Feb 22, 2022
     | 2,605 views

    Jesus’ teaching and ministry was a way of reframing the use of Scripture. The Scribes had made notes that were superimposed on Scripture. Jesus holds before us a new way of living life. One based on mercy, grace, and love. Jesus modeled the heart and intent of God.

    Sermon # 28 - The Power Of Words Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 24, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,277 views

    Our words have the power to bless or curse to build up or destroy. The question is, ‘Are we obedient to the voice of God and using this authority that God has granted to us to bless others and do His will?’

    A withered hand is healed We read in Luke 6:6,“And it came to pass on another Sabbath that he entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man there, and his right hand was withered.” In Luke 6:10, we read, “And he looked round about on them all, and said unto him, Stretch forth thy ...read more

    Sermon # 4 - Chosen To Be Royalty Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,588 views

    God has chosen us and called us to be a Royal Priesthood, but often we don’t realize our position in Christ. Abraham’s life will encourage us to realize how God can fulfill His great plans in the lives of those whom God has called and chosen.

    We read in 1 Peter 2:9, However, you are chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, people who belong to God. You were chosen to tell about the excellent qualities of God, who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. (GW) In the verses preceding the above mentioned verse, Peter ...read more

    Sermon # 28 - Discerning Prophecies Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 21, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 631 views

    Jonah was a prophet of God sent with a prophetic word for the people of Nineveh. In today’s context, ‘How can we discern who is a true prophet of God and who are false?’ God’s word gives us clear instructions on how to test and treat prophecies.

    We read in Jonah 3:3-4, “So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of Jehovah. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city, of three days' journey. And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be ...read more

    Sermon # 31- Who Is On The Throne? Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 3, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 546 views

    When the King of Nineveh heard the preaching of Jonah and knew that God’s judgement was impending, he got off his throne and humbled himself before God, the King of kings. God must be enthroned in our hearts too and we must allow Him to rule over our lives.

    We read in Jonah 3:6, “When the king of Nineveh heard about it, he got up from his throne, took off his robe, put on sackcloth, and sat down in ashes.” (GNB) When the King of Nineveh heard about the impending judgement as preached by the prophet Jonah, he immediately got up from his throne, took ...read more

    Sermon # 20 - A Repentant Heart Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 25, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 947 views

    Jonah was brought to the depths and after being battered in the belly of a big fish, Jonah repented and turned back to God. Rebellion is detrimental to us and only those who repent and get back to God can fulfill His purposes for their lives.

    For this study and meditation we will read, Jonah 1:17, “When Jonah fell into the sea, the LORD chose a very big fish to swallow Jonah. He was in the stomach of the fish for three days and three nights.” (ERV) When Jonah disobeyed God, and voyaged in the opposite direction to the place God bid him ...read more
