Sermons on Nicodemus Born Again:

Led By Love

Contributed by Robert Osborne on Aug 22, 2020

Never once did Jesus fail in this, not in his heartbreak or his anger, not in his joy or his betrayal. Jesus Led By Love. His default has always been love! He led with love because He was led by love! I believe it’s time for the church to be “Led By Love” so we can lead with love!

The last months and most recently the last few weeks have been pretty challenging for us all. I heard one pastor say that this has been the toughest season he's ever led through from leading through this COVID 19, the political insanity, the news insanity, to the most recent events of the ...read more

Our victory over sin and death is won as we progressively surrender to the Holy Spirit.

LIFE IN THE SPIRIT Text: Rom. 8.1-11 Introduction 1. Illustration: In water-safety courses a cardinal rule is never to swim out to a drowning man and try to help him as long as he’s thrashing around.

Only the Person of the Holy Spirit provides the power to overcome our sinful nature.

Pastor Tony Evans begins his book on the Holy Spirit by telling us an imaginative, hypothetical story. Suppose you’ve just come from the appliance store and you have seen the most incredible refrigerator. It’s huge.

Destruction Of Antichrist Armies Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Nov 28, 2022

How will World Peace be realized? Opinions vary on this subject, but Zechariah 14:12-16 reveals what must happen. At his Second Coming, Christ will employ three weapons to put down rebellion and establish peace.

Intro Our text today is from Zechariah 14:12-15. It describes the destruction of the Antichrist armies at the Battle of Armageddon. These verses fit chronologically after verse 3.i So, I want to read Zechariah 14:1-3 and then read the text. Zechariah 14 begins with this word from God to Jerusalem: ...read more

Answering Life's Most Important Question Series

Contributed by David Owens on Aug 8, 2023

This sermon marks a critical point in the ministry of Jesus. It is time for Jesus' disciples to know that He is the Messiah and to know what kind of Messiah He will be. They are shocked to discover there is a cross in store for Jesus and for all of Jesus' followers.

Introduction: A. One day, two men with the same qualifications interviewed for the same job and both did equally well in the interview. 1. The hiring manager decided to have them both take an exam with 10 questions to help him make a decision about who to hire. 2. As it turned out, both men only ...read more

"a Crypt-Tic Tale:" The Rich Man And Lazarus

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Aug 27, 2023

We’ve been looking at a series of parables from Luke’s gospel that have been leading to one of the most profound parables of them all; the story the rich man and Lazarus, or what I’m calling, “A Crypt-tic Tale.” Its moral is to listen to God now or regret if for eternity.

Suicide And The Brain Series

Contributed by Fresh Hope For Mental Health on Dec 16, 2022

Today we begin a series of sermons on mental health and caring for yourself, understanding the brain, and understanding it from God’s perspective and how He created us.

It’s difficult these days to listen to any news reports without hearing the phrases ‘mental illness’ or ‘suicide’. I’m convinced that there are many unnecessary deaths by suicide. Just consider that phrase for a moment. It doesn’t make sense. But given the rates of depression — 80% of all ...read more

The Relevance Of Wonders

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 23, 2022

Many churches are asking why they are not growing and why their outreach efforts seem so ineffective. Evangelism is most effective when the proclamation of the gospel is accompanied by a demonstration of signs and wonders.

Ministry and evangelism can be difficult in a country like America that holds a western worldview. The reason why is because people’s skepticism and unbelief concerning “the unseen” and “the miraculous” can limit church growth. God has bestowed on His people authority and power to see souls saved ...read more

When The Veil Is Lifted

Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on May 19, 2025

Moses was overwhelmed by the immorality and religious practices from Egypt brought from Egypt. He had met God who gave him the Ten Commandments to implement within the new culture. He had a Shekinah Glory experience--God on earth. The Light of God radiated in his face.

This past Sunday our pastor was recovering from the flu. When I asked him how he was doing, he said he was about 70% recovered. He then shared this with the church. As he began to preach there appeared to be a sincere heartfelt message flowing from deep within. A middle-aged man always makes a ...read more

You Have A Helper Who Empowers You, I Promse! Series

Contributed by David Owens on May 26, 2020

After Jesus returned to heaven to the Father's right side, He sent the Holy Spirit to be with us and live in us to empower, transform, guide, and comfort us.

A. The Apostles’ Creed is an early statement of Christian belief that has been embraced by many Christians over the years. 1.

A sermon examining the ministry of the Lord's Disciples.

THE MASTER’S MEN Mark 6:7-13 Someone has said “The most significant contribution we can make in this life is passing our faith on to the next generation.” Unfortunately many Christians see evangelism as a burden.
