    based on 263 ratings
     | 14,317 views

    A sermon presented in dramatic form as if being presented by the Apostle Thomas.

    I want to thank the pastor for inviting me to speak this Easter Sunday. I’ve been told a lot of people identify with me. Maybe after you hear my story you’ll identify with me also. Now I know there’s a derogatory nickname for me going around - "Doubting Thomas". Actually that really doesn’t fit ...read more

    Jesus did in fact commit a crime. He was and still is guilty of that same crime.

    The Crowns, The Cross, and The Crime Today, I wish to explore these three avenues of thinking as we celebrate this Easter Sunday. I wish to expose a Crown that you haven’t noticed, and discuss the Cross in a way that you haven’t thought of, and prove to you that Jesus in fact, was guilty of a ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Miller on Jul 16, 2002
    based on 47 ratings
     | 4,037 views

    Sin has a way of deceiving us, first by blinding us to its dangers, then by binding us in its power, and finally by making us a slave to its impulses.

    SAMSON AND SIN’S TRIPLE-WHAMMY Judges 16:21 "Then the Philistines took him and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza. They bound him with bronze fetters, and he became a grinder in the prison." INTRODUCTION: Christians who know that it was sin that nailed their Savior to the cross have no ...read more

    based on 56 ratings
     | 10,074 views

    We are not to be ignorant of Satan’s devices. From Job chapter one we can learn just how Satan is at work to destroy the testimony of the believer.

    “Satan’s Devices and God’s Devotion” (2 Cor 2:11) Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. I have enclosed the text of the 1st Chapter of Job at the end of this message. You will want to be sure to read this text to get a better understanding this ...read more

    What Do You See?

    Contributed by James May on Aug 6, 2003
    based on 27 ratings
     | 6,578 views

    Without a vision the people perish. They perish because their heavenly vision is overpowered by their worldly vision. What is the price you will accept to lose the promises of God?

    WHAT DO YOU SEE? Proverbs 29:18 says, "Where there is no vision, the people perish…" - I believe that the biggest reason that many begin serving the Lord; then they will revert to their old lifestyle is that their vision for the wonderful promises in God’s Word has faded. Satan blinds men to ...read more

     | 6,225 views

    Sometimes we say things that make no sense, and that we don’t even believe ourselves! One of these that crops up again and again is, "It doesn’t matter what you believe as long as you are sincere."

    Does It Matter What You Believe? Introduction 1. Over the years I have studied with many people, and there are several statements that crop up again and again. One of these is, "It doesn’t mater what you believe as long you are sincere." 2. In this lesson, we shall answer the question, "Does it ...read more

    What are Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds thinking as they look at the Christ? What are you thinking?

    Luke 2:1-20 MOMENTS AT THE MANGER SCENE Perhaps the most well-known Christian symbol of Christmas is the manger scene. There are manger scenes in people’s front yards. Churches have manger scenes. Some people even put together live nativity scenes. What thoughts do you have, as you look at a ...read more

    Joseph was blessed by his father prior to dying, but it was the hand of God that sustained Joseph throughout his life.

    Intro. We come to our eighth sermon in the Life of Joseph. We began with the change in his father. He has gone from the son that was favored to the sovereign leader of the Egyptian kingdom. To do that, God allowed him to go into a pit, a place of temptation, a prison, and then the palace. His ...read more

    In the Great Commission in Matthew 28, there are many imperatival participles, but Jesus’ only direct imperative to His disciples was, ’Make Disciples!’ What do we do with this?

    Make DISCIPLES! Sterling C. Franklin February 2008 Text: Matthew 28:16-20 Matthew 28:16-20 16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,464 views

    If you know Jesus Christ, the joys that await you exceed your wildest dreams. Excitement and joy awaits us as we begin to recognize what we have in Jesus Christ. We are rich, we are significant, we are secure, and we are royalty.

    The Ultimate Royalty Wedding! (Psalm 45) 1. We like to joke about marriage. Married for many years, Paul had been ignored by his wife, Liz, for some days, so eventually he confronted her with what he perceived as the problem. 'Come on Liz, admit it,' he ranted, 'You only married me because my ...read more

     | 12,690 views

    In the middle of the Feast of Dedication (Hanukkah), where the people remembered the Most Holy Place being reconsecrated, Jesus says He is consecrated and set apart by the Father just like the Most Holy Place and just like the Temple.

    Intro It is now winter. The fall harvest complete, the skies are now a darker hue, and the festivals are over. The Israelites have kept God’s ordained festivals and now the long, cold wet winter descends until the spring festivals begin. We can easily lose our focus on God during this time ...read more
