    An Interview To Change Life

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Nov 9, 2000
    based on 170 ratings
     | 6,586 views

    Nicodemus was confused because his thinking was earth-bound but Jesus offered him eternal life through a spiritual rebirth if he would believe in Christ’s self-offering on the Cross.

    A LIFE CHANGING INTERVIEW The text, John 3:16 is a biblical classic: "God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." It’s probably the most loved and quoted verse in Scripture. Rev Sandy Millar, Rector of Holy ...read more

    As Others See Us

    John the Elder writes an appraisal of three church members: Gaius - who serves others, Diotrephes - who hinders others, and Demetrius - who attracts others.

    AS OTHERS SEE US The third letter of John is one of the shortest in the New Testament but it has much to say to us. It’s a warm and honest pastoral letter. A straight from the shoulder message from a pastor to his people. Where encouragement and commendation are ...read more

    On Judgement

    Contributed by Rick Hope on Mar 1, 2006
     | 9,422 views

    What is judgement and is it always wrong to condemn something?

    Matthew 7:1 is perhaps one of the most memorized and most quoted verses in the Bible? It is true! For instance, I am going to make a few statements. Let’s see if you agree with me. 1. Homosexuality is a sin. Homosexuals need to repent of this sin in order to be right with God. 2. All ...read more

    The Greatness of John the Baptist

    Introduction What marks people out as being great? Power, wealth, Courage, humility, success. We see this morning that John was a great man. He was humble, he had great joy and he was courageous enough to give a message of justice and judgement that was certainly not palatable to his hearers ...read more

    Why Are There So Many Hypocrites In The Church?

    How do we answer those who use hypocrites as an excuse for not attending Church?

    Why are there so Many Hypocrites in the Church? Galatians 2: 11-16 11 When Peter came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he was clearly in the wrong. 12 Before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles.

    May God give us all the attitude of Samuel that says, "Speak, LORD, for your servant is listening."

    (Note: For this sermon I had my cell phone in the pulpit. I had someone call me on it just as the sermon began.) The Word of God that we will consider in our sermon this morning is the Old Testament lesson for this Sunday from 1 Samuel 3:1-10. (Cell phone rings…) Just a minute let me take ...read more

    Holiness For The Child Of God

    Contributed by Richard Cook on Aug 25, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,737 views

    Understanding the need for Holiness is often difficult for ministers to get across to their flocks; this sermon teaches the need to seperate ourselves from the world, and worldliness.

    1 Peter 1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. Some will argue that Holiness is not important, but I submit that if it is in the Bible it is important. Holiness in the life of a child of God is not optional but is a command; we can see that from our scripture reading. ...read more

    It is easy to take pride in our wealth when what we really need to be doing is to understand our poverty without Christ.

    Introduction We know the phrase, “read between the lines.” We perhaps have gotten letters in which we have tried to do that. What does he mean “I’ll see you”? He’s always written before, “can’t wait to see you soon.” What does she mean, ...read more

    Spiritual Warfare, Really?

    You may not want to think about it, you may not want to accept it, but the fact remains, if you have determined to follow Jesus with all your heart and live according to His plan that is found in His Word then you have been marked as a target by Satan.

    According to a study done by George Barna and the Barna Group, 40% of Christians in the United States strongly agreed that Satan “is not a living being but is a symbol of evil.” An additional two out of ten Christians (19%) said they “agree somewhat” with that perspective. ...read more

    The temple that John is measuring is the church of Jesus Christ, and both it and its voice, the witnesses, will complete their mission.

    This is the hardest chapter in the entire book of Revelation to interpret. At least that’s what all my commentators say. And that’s about the only thing they can all agree on. So I hope I don’t leave you all more confused than you were before we began. The first thing to ...read more
