    Matthew 5 - Part 10 - Too Much Salt Is Bad For Your Health! Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 30, 2009
    based on 7 ratings

    Too much salt is bad for you! Christians are like salt. The world can only take us in small doses. The Bible says it’s not that too much salt is bad for you but that salt mixed with too much dirt loses it’s flavour and is of no use.

    Matthew 5 - Part 10 - Too much salt is bad for your health! I use a saline solution for my contact lenses. It has the same salty consistency as my tears have. Without it I could not clean my lenses and putting them in would be difficult. I’m told that too much salt is bad for you. The Bible says ...read more

    6 Steps That Led Peter To Deny Christ And May Lead Us Too

    Contributed by Jerry Smith on Nov 26, 2019
    based on 1 rating

    What steps led Peter to deny Christ? Can these steps be repeated in the lives of believers? How can we avoid repeating Peter's denial of Christ in our own lives?

    We know from the Gospels that Peter was a transparent man. He would ask Jesus the obvious questions, showed his feelings, and even boasted that he would stay with Christ to the end. However, that boasting did not last very long at all: ...she looked upon him, and said, And thou also wast with ...read more

    Make The Devil Pay

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Nov 27, 2017
     | 23,249 views

    When a person dies, especially a young person, we celebrate the life at the person's funeral. We shouldn't be celebrating a life that has been taken far too soon. Instead, God's children should make the devil pay for taking that life.

    Recently, I delivered the eulogy for my niece who was killed in a car accident in Memphis, Tennessee. Patricia, her mom asked me to do the eulogy and I said I would. So my wife flew down to Memphis that Friday and I drove down the following Monday. There was something stirring in me over that ...read more

    Enemies: Don't Deny It, You Do Have Them

    Contributed by Fr Mund Cargill Thompson on Sep 2, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,479 views

    We like to pretend we are far too nice to have enemies. But the bible is realistic. It doesn't try to pretend we don't have enemies. Instead it tells us how God wants us to treat them...

    Who is your enemy? Who is your enemy? You are probably going to reply to me “I don’t have any enemies….” Afterall it hardly seems very nice to have enemies? “Live peaceably with all” said our reading (at least if I cut out the words that came before) Surely if I am a Christian I am not allowed to ...read more

    A Faith Lesson From A Bad Girl Series

    Contributed by Perry Fowler on Jul 17, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,420 views

    How bad is too bad? Rahab was a prostitute but she's found in the Faith chapter of the Bible. How deep and wide is grace? How far will God go and how willing is He to allow "the bad" to walk by faith?

    Have you ever had someone discover something about you that you’d rather them not know? Ben Affleck has. Evidently, Ben was excited about participating in the PBS show called “Finding Your Roots” until he discovered that his ancestors were slave owners and asked that he be removed from the show ...read more

    Genesis Chapter 14. An Expository review of the traits of Abram (Abraham), and how our modern men fall far short.

    Where Have all The Good Men Gone? Genesis 14 Ya know, Men have gotten a pretty Bad rap here in the United States. Every where I look, it seems like the role of the Man is being attacked and belittled by the culture, by our media, and even by our government officials. Single women are told, that ...read more

     | 2,404 views

    Jesus power to free us is far more comforting to our hearts, minds, even our souls than the power that the fear of impending death holds over us.

    FOR JESUS’ LOVE 13 Leadership Traits By Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid (September 23, 2017) “So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my ...read more

    Too many times, the Good Shepherd image of Jesus comes across as the "Greeting-card Christ".

    God is slow to anger and great in mercy. Some believe that they are deserving of His love but when it comes down to it, we are far from deserving.

    Psalm 145:8 – 14 reads, “The Lord is gracious and full of compassion, Slow to anger and great in mercy. The Lord is good to all, And His tender mercies are over all His works. All Your works shall praise You, O Lord, And Your saints shall bless you. They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom, ...read more

    Touched By An Angel, But Changed By The Lord!

    Jesus is far superior to the angels in every way.

    "Touched By An Angel, But Changed By The Lord!" Hebrews 1:4-14 There is a movement, a love fest that is sweeping our country. The infatuation, or love, however you wish to describe it has everything to do with the tender feelings and warm thoughts that we have when we think about angels. It ...read more

    How far will you go to bring someone to Jesus?

    “Bring them to Jesus or throw them in the fire” John 1: 35-46 How far will you go to bring someone to Jesus? The question I need to ask, this morning is, should we be concerned about the lives and eternity of our family/friends or should we just mind our own business? Is their eternity ...read more

    Does Jesus Care

     | 13,498 views

    Jesus cares far more that many actually realize

    When good things happen to us, we are all too ready to praise Him for His loving care. A. Certainly this is right. 1. Nobody has to force us to recognize the hand of the Lord, in this blessing. B. Most of us are not really that quick to recognize that God loves and cares for ...read more

    When Disaster Hits.... God's At Work Doing Far More Loving Than Judging

    based on 17 ratings
     | 6,548 views

    This sermon is a pastoral sermon exploring the question where is God when disaster hits. It was written following the bushfires in Victoria, Australia.

    How have you coped with the week? Early in the week I was wondering if this was a nightmare? But as the week went on the reality was hitting home. Already 180 lives lost and coroner has allowed for up to 300 deaths.. A national news reader that I watched daily dead. A town completely ...read more

    Victory In Jesus Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 23, 2016
     | 14,030 views

    Far too many believers live defeated lives. The Lord is never pleased when we surrender to our difficulties and admit defeat. Granted we can't overcome within our own ability, but with the help of the Lord, we can live victoriously.

    Victory in Jesus 1 John 2: 1-6 As I studied this passage, I was reminded of the relationship John enjoyed with Christ. He was part of the inner circle, one of three that were closest to Jesus. I am convinced Jesus didn’t love those three more than the others, but they were privileged to ...read more

    Bid Him Come And Die Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 6, 2021
     | 2,066 views

    Following Jesus is an all or nothing proposal, and far too many so-called "believers" are riding the fence, playing a game, or trying to look devout when their character shows otherwise. Either follow and obey Him, or be honest in your unbelief and leave.

    In today's social set-up, especially here in America, the prevailing philosophy seems to be, "I want it, and I want it NOW!" Young people are crying out for this at a pace that is bordering on the ridiculous, petty, and unrealistic. I do not see even the slightest awareness in most ...read more
