     | 10,394 views

    We are only given a brief interval to repent, so we need to know what repentance is, who needs to repent, and when our chance to repent will expire.

    “SPACE TO REPENT” Mt. 3:1-10; Rev. 2:21 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. I heard about a man who smoked cigarettes.

    A message about our focus in the last days that is summed up in 1 Peter 1:13. Also a joyous description of New Jerusalem.

    The End Of The Beginning PPT 1 Series Title We are beginning a new series today on what is popularly known as the end times. I think that a more accurate phrase would be the end of the beginning.

    The Rejected God

     | 10,792 views

    We can call ourselves Christians, go to church, give our tithes, etc. and yet have rejected God effectively. The picture Jeremiah gives of life in Judah comes close to life in the Christian West, with several gods competing for our loyalty.

    [Sermon preached on 4 March 2018, 3rd Sunday in Lent / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] It is so endearing at times to see little children in a big supermarket or shopping mall. They come in with mom or dad, but as soon as they see something interesting—toys, candies, pets, or anything else that ...read more

    Contributed by Rick Gillespie- Mobley on Oct 23, 2018
     | 7,525 views

    We miss out on blessings from God and from others when we fail to willingly give out encouragement and appreciation. Barnabus, The Son of Encouragment should be the example for us to follow.

    To Make It In Life In Need To Give Encouragement & Appreciation Luke 17:11-19 Acts 4:32-37 10/21/2018 If you want to get more out of life, there are two traits that you will need to be a blessing and to be more blessed.

    The finished work of Jesus Christ made us His righteousness

    When Jesus resurrected He made us His righteousness and this helps us to approach the throne of grace without any form of condemnation. We are so loved by God that He sees us as righteous because of His Son Jesus Christ. Let's go into the scriptures to confirm this great promise of our Father. The ...read more

     | 10,135 views

    Does our faith permit us to disobey the government or to evade taxes? Are Romans 13 and Acts 5 incompatible? How can we sincerely and creatively live as citizens of two kingdoms? What is the underlying principle that governs our choices?

    [Sermon preached on 4 November 2018, 24th Sunday after Pentecost / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Some years ago, we needed to get a little home renovation done. I asked someone for a quotation. When he had given me the price, he added: “That’s without a receipt. If you want a receipt, I will have to ...read more

    These men were not ready to be trusted with the tender things of the Lord. Jesus knew it was not time for the disciples to teach the truths which would soon come to the infant body of believers called "the church."
