    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 21, 2003
    based on 66 ratings
     | 6,839 views

    Satan wanted Jesus to bow down before him... how dare he? What possible reason would Satan even have to ask such an outrageous thing (part of a series on the book and movie trilogy by J.R.R. Tolkien).

    OPEN: Several years ago, Christian Herter was running hard for reelection as Governor of Massachusetts, and one day he arrived late at a barbecue.

    What will you do with Jesus? is a question we often ask of non-Christians. But what about Christians. How do we answer that question?

    OPEN: At the turn of the century, the "Des Moines Register" ran a scathing review of an Iowa singing group named the Cherry Sisters.

     | 3,188 views

    Jesus acknowledges the faith of friends and forgives the sin of the paralytic. The scribes question His authority, so He validates His authority with healing. To what lengths are you willing to go to bring others to Jesus? How is your religious l

    Can He Really Do That? Mark 2:1-12 Mark 2:1-2 (HCSB) When He entered Capernaum again after some days, it was reported that He was at home.

    Only God Can Forgive Sins Series

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on Apr 2, 2007
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,106 views

    Is forgiveness of sins the greatest need of a paralyzed man? Yes! It’s our greatest need too, and the greatest need of others we know. Since only God can forgive sins against him, Jesus claimed the authority of God.

    ONLY GOD CAN FORGIVE SINS—Mark 1:1-12 ***It was a Sunday morning, and light was just beginning to dawn. I got up and went to the bathroom, and promptly fainted. When I came around, I panicked, because I felt a tingling in my arm, a marker for a stroke. My wife called 911, and after a couple of ...read more

    based on 264 ratings
     | 29,843 views

    Where do God & country meet? How can we be good Christians & yet good citizens? Can we be both, or do we have to be one or the other? Do we have to sacrifice our love of God for love of country, or vice-versa?

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (REVISED: 2022) TEXT: Romans 13:1-7; 2 Chronicles 7:14; 1 Timothy 2:1-4; Philippians 3:17-21 ILL. A few years ago Dr. James Dobson began his Focus on the Family Newsletter with words as important, ...read more

     | 4,679 views

    Peter was a man who understood his purpose, to share Jesus with everyone he came into contact with. If sharing Jesus isn’t in your lifestyle then you need to change your lifestyle!

    “A MAN WHO HAD BEEN WITH JESUS INTRODUCTION: I was torn between peaching a sermon on “Important Grand Parents” or a sermon relating to “911” But a week ago I was sitting with Mark Taylor after prayer meeting on Friday night a week ago we were talking about nothing in particular & I began to ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,613 views

    Jesus intended for His disciples to be comforted, and to become confident at the same time. Pentecost is actually God’s kingdom moving in, and taking control.

    The Power of Pentecost- Abundance is Here Text: Acts 2:1-4 Amplified Bible AND WHEN the day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all assembled together in one place, 2When suddenly there came a sound from heaven like the rushing of a violent tempest blast, and it filled the whole house in ...read more

    The Psalm Of The King

    Contributed by H.b. Charles Jr. on Oct 30, 2012
    based on 8 ratings
     | 20,545 views

    "The Psalm of the King" is an exposition of Psalm 2, a Royal Psalm that declares Jesus reigns over heaven and earth. Psalm 2 declares the unimpeachable authority of Jesus Christ in four movements.

    THE PSALM OF THE KING Psalm 2 Psalm 2 is closely connected to Psalm 1. Both Jewish and Christian traditions indicate they were once considered one psalm. The two are separate psalms in our Bibles. Yet they stand together as the introduction to the Psalms. In a real sense, these two psalms seem ...read more

    Arise, My Child! Series

     | 5,836 views

    For Christians, death is merely a passage to life by faith in Christ only! When Jesus encounters people who need Him two things happen: 1) He willingly goes to where they are and, 2) they do whatever it takes to come to Him. We should live the same way!

    Arise, My Child! Mark 5:21-43 Introduction - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” -- Key verse: Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” - Last week we ...read more

    Why Do People Like To Put God In A Box?

    Contributed by Randy Stephenson on Sep 7, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,537 views

    From the casting out of a demon to the healing of a deaf and mute man, God's ways are better than human ways. God sent his Son to meet with our souls with a One on One plan for redemption and salvation.

    Mark 7:24-26 (CJB) Next, Yeshua left that district and went off to the vicinity of Tzor and Tzidon. There he found a house to stay in and wanted to remain unrecognized, but keeping hidden proved impossible.

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Jan 27, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,931 views

    Satan doesn’t want you to think about spiritual things. Rather, he only wants us to dwell on our own selfish desires. Avoid the temptation to delay any thoughts of spiritual self-examination, and make it a priority to encourage others for self-examination
