    Jesus Paid It All

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 4, 2022
     | 6,838 views

    A woman's bank account showed a $50B deficit. Turns out, that's similar to the debt Jesus named in the parable THAT WE OWE! There's only one solution for our huge debt: the precious blood of Christ paid it all. Praise You Jesus!

    JESUS PAID IT ALL 1 Pet. 1:18-20 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: “4 worms in Church" 1. A minister decided to add a visual demonstration about the evil habits of modern society. 2. Four worms were placed into four separate jars. a. 1st - put into a container of alcohol. b. 2nd - put ...read more

    Use What God Has Given

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Sep 1, 2024
     | 2,182 views

    The parable of the talents reminded us of what we are to be doing from now until the day Jesus returns. We are stewards entrusted with God's gift and we are to use what He has given for the work of His Kingdom. We are accountable to Him for how we live our lives today.

    Matt 25:14-30 - USE WHAT GOD HAS GIVEN Jesus has been telling His disciples, and all of us today, of the signs of the end times and that after He left, He would return. • As to the day and time of His return, no one knows except God the Father. • But His second coming is sure and we are to ...read more

    God's Upsidedown Courthouse: A Lesson In Faithfulness

    Contributed by Ryan Sato on May 4, 2005
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,969 views

    Today’s passage challenges us to think about the Christian discipline of prayer. How is your prayer life? How is our church prayer life? How do we measure a faithful prayer life? Jesus’ parable from Luke 18 offers us some freedom from guilt…and a call

    Opener: Please allow me to rant…I often wonder if we Christians take time to reflect on what we look like to the unbelieving world that is outside the four walls of our church…Sunday after Sunday. Why go to church…why be a part of the church community? – This is a question that I have been ...read more

    Heaven's Investment

    What does God expect us to do with what Heaven has given us? Why hasn’t God given to us all equally? Let’s see what God expects us to do with Heaven’s investment. Let’s look at the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 25:14-30.

    Prelude: What does God expect us to do with what Heaven has given us? Why hasn’t God given to us all equally? Purpose: Let’s see what God expects us to do with Heaven’s investment.

    Gaining A Heart Of Wisdom Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 16, 2021
     | 7,984 views

    Life is short! We must invest our time in that which is of eternal value. All that glitters is not gold. The vanities of this world are of much less value than "gaining a heart of wisdom" (Ps. 90:12). This message leads into Jesus's parable about finding a treasure in Matthew 13:44.

    What do you value most in life? The question is not what you should value most. The question is what do you value most in life? The answer to that question is not found in what we say we value. The answer is found in how we invest our lives—how we invest the precious minutes, hours, and days of ...read more

    He Came To Seek And Save The Lost Series

     | 5,545 views

    THIS morning what I want to do or at least attempt to do – as we take a look at Luke chapter 15 is to reveal the heart of the Father in regards to lost people; How does God feel about the lost – what is his desire for them (Luke 15 contains the parable of the lost; sheep, coin & son).

    He Came To Seek And Save The Lost What Jesus Came To Do – part one In the beginning the Word already existed. He was with God, and he was God. He was in the beginning with God. He created everything there is. Nothing exists that he didn't make. Life itself was in him, and this life gives light ...read more

    Jesus was forthright in declaring that He came from the Father, and that He would return to the Father. Christmas is recognition of this truth, pointing especially to the sacrifice of the Saviour for the sin of mankind.

    “I have said these things to you in figures of speech. The hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures of speech but will tell you plainly about the Father. In that day you will ask in my name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf; for the Father ...read more

    Take Hold Of Eternal Life

     | 7,698 views

    Jesus has just said, "No one can serve two masters; you cannot serve God and money" (Luke 16:13). Then Jesus goes on to share his parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31). Paul's words to Timothy (I Timothy 6:6-19) support Jesus' claim.

    “Take Hold of Eternal Life” Amos 6:1-7; I Timothy 6:6-19; Luke 16:19-31 Proper 21-C, September 25, 2016 All three of the Scripture lessons read in our worship service this morning could easily remind us of that old adage: “You can’t have your cake and eat it too!” ...read more

    Loving The Lord

    Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Aug 28, 2019
     | 5,479 views

    Are you a good Samaritan? We might try to help other people, but is that really what Jesus was trying to teach when he told the story about the good Samaritan? Look to what leads up to this parable and see how Jesus' story is so much more than just a lesson teaching us to help other people.

    “Help other people.” When did you learn that lesson? That is one of the very basic lessons that we normally learn at a very early age. Someone drops something, you pick it up. Someone falls down on the playground, you help them up. If there is someone who is need, you share what you have been ...read more

    Why wouldn’t people love their neighbors? And do I have to love myself before I can show this kind of love to others?

    Today is our Friend Sunday, and many of you invited your neighbors to worship with you this morning. So, this morning I thought I’d give you a little quiz on neighbors. Years ago PBS featured a program where the host would enter the studio, take off his cardigan sweater, and his dress shoes and put ...read more

    Facebook friends really aren’t friends, they’re casual acquaintances on the internet. But real friendship is a powerful thing that Jesus not only gave us, but taught us to use for His kingdom. What does Friendship mean to Jesus and to us?

    OPEN: I read about a woman who telephoned a friend and asked how she was feeling, "Terrible," came the reply over the wire, "my head’s splitting and my back and legs are killing me. The house is a mess, and the kids are simply driving me crazy." Very sympathetically the caller said, ...read more

    What Is Your Willoughby?

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jan 5, 2018

    One of my favorite episodes of The Twilight Zone is "A Stop At Willoughby". It's about a man who is so unhappy with his life that he dreams of little town where life is easy. There are many Christians who are like the story's main character.

    When I was growing up one of my favorite programs was The Twilight Zone. I have been accused of, from time to time, still living in the Twilight Zone! That’s okay. One of my favorite episodes is “A Stop at Willoughby”. The story is about a guy named Gart Williams. Now in my best Rod Sterling ...read more
