    Treasure In Heaven

    Contributed by Matthew Stoll on Dec 19, 2006
    based on 41 ratings
     | 14,153 views

    We need to place our treasure in heaven through giving to the poor and tithing to the church rather than fall into greed (excessive spending) and worry (excessive saving).

    [Clip from short film, Gone Nutty, from Ice Age. Scrat tries to store nuts for the Ice Age, and he stores one too many. 4:12] Jesus warned us about two dangers: greed (which includes materialism), and worry. Both of which lead to the same problem, storing up for ourselves treasure on earth, ...read more

    The Poverty That Enriches

    Contributed by Kenneth Trent on May 21, 2005
    based on 17 ratings
     | 2,982 views

    No sensible person enjoys being poor. None of us would strive for actual “poverty status” in life. Jesus is referring to another kind of "poverty", one that enriches.

    THE POVERTY THAT ENRICHES “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:3. No sensible person enjoys being poor. None of us would strive for actual “poverty status” in life. In our text, our Lord is not extolling the benefits of being economically poor. He ...read more

    Now whether you are young or old, six or sixty, healthy and wealthy, or puny and poor, you can make the rest of your life the best of your life.

    Acts 2:1-4 (A great start) There is an old saying that, "You are never too old to learn." Sure enough, this is one lesson that you're never too old to learn: "So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.”(Psa. 90:12) Now, what that means is this: "Teach us ...read more

    Out Of The Mouth Of Christians?!?!

    Contributed by Pastor Jeff Hughes on Jan 20, 2014
     | 3,922 views

    "Out of the Mouth of Christians", is a study on those things that we do that sure do not meet up with the will of and the Word of God and often make incredibly poor impressions on the unsaved.

    "Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ...read more

     | 7,686 views

    This is a sermon for a candidate to be ordained in ministry who is from a poor run down city in OH called East Cleveland. God can choose the most unlikely of candidates.

    The Cost Of The Call Jeremiah 1:4-9 Luke 1:26-38 10/31/2019 Let me ask you something and try to be as honest as possible, when you hear the word East Cleveland, what comes to mind?

    The religious crowd tends to desire to feel comfort and safe with the status quo? Be quiet poor old blind man? No, I hear Jesus is coming this way.

    The Widow's Mite Series

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Apr 30, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 32,760 views

    The story of the widow's mite has been used to show Christians what their attitude toward giving should be. This message challenges that traditional and longstanding teaching.

    Growing up I don’t think I heard a teaching about the widow’s mite that did not take the widow and make her the standard by which all of us are to give when it comes to our giving. “This poor widow woman came to the altar and gave her last mite. She did that for the Lord! What an example she is to ...read more

    "a Carnival Of Corruption" Lent 3

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Feb 28, 2024
     | 1,077 views

    Carnival time is often a time of chaos. Jesus created chaos because of the corruption in the Jerusalem temple. The cleansing of the temple is the "judgement" of God against commercial robbery of the poor by the religious establishment. Jesus is the replacement.

    Psalm 49: An Intimation Of Immorality Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Dec 19, 2020
     | 4,329 views

    This psalm is classed as a wisdom psalm the subject of which is the prosperity of the wicked, as contemplated by the righteous; that is to say, why do the wicked prosper, while the righteous are poor and afflicted? This was a frequent cause of wonder to these Hebrew thinkers (compare Psalm 37).

    The Muslim Maze, Pt. 4

    Contributed by Dave Kinney on Nov 29, 2004
    based on 24 ratings
     | 2,881 views

    This series could be summed up this way...Jesus raised the dead and Mohammad killed the living. Jesus healed the sick and Mohammad harmed the healthy. Jesus released the oppressed and Mohammad enslaved the free! And it’s still happening today!

    “The Muslim Maze”, Pt. 4 Matthew 7:15-20 I just want to go on record as saying again; these 4 weeks have not been a Muslim bashing with hate. But rather it’s been an Islamic exposing with truth. Last week we covered some good ground in order to search out the facts about Islam. Just think for ...read more

    Persecution And Thanksgiving

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 22, 2016
     | 4,320 views

    Believers in many parts of the world are suffering persecution ranging from mild oppression to beheadings while we in the west seem to waltz through life without giving this persecution a second thought. What should we make of this disparity?

    Matthew 24:4-14 – please look this up in your Bibles. We will read this passage in a moment … The first and second Sundays of November have been designated as the International Days of Prayer for the Persecuted Church. But since we were away the first Sunday of November at a District ...read more

    Crossing The Final Hurdle

     | 3,599 views

    The reproach of Egypt includes three things: a history of slavery, oppression, and their disobedience. Their past stood between them and their victory, and before God could send them to slay the giants of Canaan and possess the land, he had to deal with their past

    Joshua 5:6-12 Jos 5:6 For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people that were men of war, which came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD: unto whom the LORD sware that he would not shew them the land, which the LORD sware ...read more

    We Are Not Ignorant Of Satan’s Devices Or Schemes – Part 3 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 28, 2023
     | 1,517 views

    We continue to look at Satan’s schemes, and this time, at the resuscitation of Sodom and what homosexuality does; and at affirmative equality and not ability; and children being ruined in education; and how a nation can be undermined. Also demonic possession, influence, and oppression.

    WE ARE NOT IGNORANT OF SATAN’S DEVICES OR SCHEMES – PART 3 This is a series where we examine some means by which Satan has made inroads into human activity. It might be surprising to hear that we are not ignorant of Satan’s devices, but the bible says that, and this is an attempt to explore that ...read more

    The Truth Shall Make You Free!

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Feb 25, 2022
     | 1,666 views

    One of Jesus' better-known statements is recorded for us in John 8:32. Some see this as political freedom, but it goes much further, for it describes Jesus Himself and the power to set us free from the oppression of sin.

    When we think of the concept of freedom, we here in America refer to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights that guarantee us freedom of religion, freedom of the press, the right to address our grievances, the right to bear arms, the freedom to assemble peacefully, and the right to legal ...read more
