    When Peter Got Hungry

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 5, 2015
     | 9,115 views

    God went to great lengths to bring together Cornelius and Peter. On this meeting hinged the salvation of all the world. With the “keys” of his Apostolic ministry, Peter opened the gates, not realizing that billions of people would enter.

    WHEN PETER GOT HUNGRY Acts 10:1-48 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Things are going badly for Israel. The economy is in a tail spin, inflation is getting higher and immigrants are flooding in from all over. Problems, problems, problems, but what to do? 2. So the Knesset holds a special session to come ...read more

    The opening chapters of the New Testament church, as seen in Acts give us not only the story of the church’s early days, but also the essentials that must be part of any church.. At the very core of the these essentials is the Word of God.

    Church Essentials: Part One The Foundation of the Word of God Acts 2:41-47 The opening chapters of the New Testament church, as recorded in Acts provide us with not only the history of the church’s early days, they also lay out the essentials that should be part of the church today.

     | 11,925 views

    Tonight from the opening four verses of this book the Holy Spirit doesn’t waste any time in getting strait to the point, from the salutation, I want us to see and learn five calls of the church.

    The Call of the Church Pm Service September 13th 2009 Titus 1:1-4 Introduction Tonight we will begin a six part series through the book of Titus entitled, “Will the true Church arise!” Titus is a power packed book, it is one the shortest letters the apostle Paul authored, but as ...read more

    The Empty Tomb Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Aug 2, 2010
    based on 71 ratings
     | 40,078 views

    John began his resurrection story with a testimony of how he came to personal faith in the Resurrection by considering the evidence found in the open tomb. The empty tomb bore witness to a physical or bodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ.

    JOHN 20: 1-10 THE EMPTY TOMB We have before us tonight the open sepulcher, the bewildered alarm it caused, and the faith it both elicited and excited. John's Gospel comes to a conclusion in chapter 20 with a proclamation of Jesus' victory over death and then is followed in chapter 21 by an ...read more

    If God is all powerful, if God loves me and He knows all my needs, If God knows what I want even before I open my mouth, then why do I have to pray?

    WHY SHOULD BELIEVERS PRAY? INTRODUCTION If God is all powerful, if God loves me and He knows all my needs, If God knows what I want even before I open my mouth, then why do I have to pray?

    The Absence Of God

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 3, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,503 views

    January 1985: The psalmist experiences the absence of God, even to the point of denigrating himself as a "worm." But when he takes inventory, he does see evidence of God's presence, opens up his heart, and dares to hope.

    Today I am going to take a somewhat different approach to the reading of the Scripture and the way I will be preaching on it. And in fact I hope this will make it come alive for you and will enable you to follow the thought of the Scripture writer as well as my own thought. What I plan to do today ...read more

    After Zechariah's opening sermon on repentance a new section of prophecy is given in the form of a series of night visions. After Zechariah followed the Lord's 1st instructions - to preach repentance-the Lord continued to speak to him.

    ZECHARIAH 1:7-11 GOD RETURNS TO HIS PEOPLE OR The Rider Amidst the Myrtle Trees [Haggai 2:15-19] We now come to visions and revelations of the Lord. After the introduction to the entire book, which was Zechariah's opening sermon on repentance (1:1-6), a new section of prophecy is given in ...read more

    Is He The Christ? Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Oct 13, 2008
    based on 28 ratings
     | 9,665 views

    If Jesus’ authority to not only interpret the Sabbath but also to work on the Sabbath indeed comes from God, then Jesus is making a messianic claim. This claim opens the way to questions concerning His origins—divine origins. Is He the Christ?

    JOHN 7: 25-36 IS HE THE CHRIST? The force of Jesus’ argument with the authorities seems to impress many in the audience who are either residents of the city or pilgrims in Jerusalem for the Feast of Tabernacles. Thus a shift in subject springs from Jesus’ last answer. If Jesus’ authority to ...read more

    "Paul's Final Thoughts." 1 Cor. Pt 17 Series

    Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Oct 26, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,109 views

    Paul was a man who had experienced Grace and he always referred to its power in the opening of his letters and in the closing of his letters because it changed his life. Grace changed a murderer of the church to a martyr of the church.

    “Paul’s - Final Thoughts” Opening Illustration: On the lighter side of life Scripture Texts: I Cor. 16:21-24: 21I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand. 22If anyone does not love the Lord—a curse be on him.

    Abraham Lincoln said, "It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt." Beloved, you can speak life or death. Tame the tongue...and speak life.

    Lessons From Paul's Salutations

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 18, 2015
     | 4,658 views

    It is most amazing to me how the apostle Paul opens his letters to the churches. This sermon concentrates on the salutation used in the letter to the Colossians and provides insight into how we could or should interact with each other. Praise be to God!

    Colossians 1:1-13 “1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 to God’s holy people in Colossae, the faithful brothers and sisters in Christ: Grace and peace to you from God our Father.” “3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord ...read more

    The word ‘rest’ does not exist anymore in an era where people believe in working 24/7, the hoarding brags: ‘we work round the clock and open all the days of the week!’ Imagine!

    Parking Space! Isaiah 30:15”For thus says the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel: " In returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and confidence shall be your strength." The word ‘rest’ does not exist anymore in an era where people believe in working 24/7, the hoarding ...read more

    The Divine Visitor

     | 7,403 views

    Christ's knocking at the door is proof that He has come near to come in and bless us. He is willing to come in, but sometimes the heart hesitates to open its house of many rooms. The Lord knocks at the door of each

    Title: THE DIVINE VISITOR Note: Scripture references are from the New International Version of the Bible. Text: Revelation 3:20, "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock.

    Who's Using You?

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jun 13, 2011
     | 4,692 views

    How do respond when someone hurts you? Is it with veiled hatred and open contempt? The Apostle Paul had to deal with just such a situation and how he handled it can help us to deal with pain in a godly way.

    Sometimes the right thing to do is confront bad behavior or attitudes. As a leader there have been times when I have had to call someone on the carpet. It’s never easy and too often that person does not receive the exhortation or even rebuke well. As a leader, my job is to protect and nurture ...read more
