     | 4,696 views

    Learn to judge men, by the things that are not seen in their nature but seen in their fruits (Matthew 7:20), and also by their graces and spiritual glory. Judge them by their patience, meekness, holiness and uprightness.

(John 7:24) A change in our outward condition causes many people to change their opinions concerning us. While Job did swim in the full streams of riches and honor, many respected him; but ...read more

That's right, we're talking about favoritism, and how it goes against the Golden Rule and God's judgement. It's a tough subject, but as Billy ...read more

    This sermon explains why Jesus says we all must be "born again". It also goes into an explanation of what is a sacrament and why we baptize. This sermon is based upon John Wesley’s sermon #45 by the same name preached in 1760.

    First, a little humor: A preacher once heard about another preacher who gained notoriety by preaching the world’s longest sermon. He felt led to preach some kind of notable sermon, too, and get in the record books. But he didn’t want to bore people with a long sermon. So he decided he would ...read more
