     | 1,069 views

    Use Your Sling

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Aug 7, 2021
     | 1,678 views

    If you are not teaching against false doctrine and naming names you are not using your sling to protect your flock from the wolves.

    Romans 16:17  Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. Out of all the chaos of 2020 with COVID and the election something good, though bad, came out of it. The good thing is that many false ...read more

     | 1,792 views

    Leaders must: 1) Be Right with God (Acts 20:28a), 2) Shepherd the flock (Acts 20:28b), 3) Guard the flock (Acts 20:29–31), 4) Study and pray (Acts 20:32), and 5) Be free from self-interest (Acts 20:33–38).

    Acts 20:28-38. 28 Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God, which he obtained with his own blood. 29 I know that after my departure fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; 30 and ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 472 views

    Pastors equip the saints for the work of ministry and for building up the body of Christ. This involves guiding their flock to pursue their divine purpose, thereby fulfilling the Great Commission: empowering people to share the Gospel and live out their faith with passion and purpose.

    Holiness For The Child Of God

    Contributed by Richard Cook on Aug 25, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,664 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

    If you love Christ, then show your love by your service in his church. If you’re devoted to the Good Shepherd, be devoted to his flock.

     | 3,131 views

    I sometimes identify more with being a Shepherd’s dog for Jesus than being a shepherd of the flock. This is a message that deals with the Love of God for His sheep.

    It’s Great Being a Dog – But I’d rather be a Shepherd By Pastor Jim May 1 John 4:15-16, "Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.
