    Being Salt and Light in your daily life.

    Salt And Light Matthew 5:13-16 February 20, 2005 Matthew 5:13 (NLT) "You are the salt of the earth. But what good is salt if it has lost its flavor? Can you make it useful again? It will be thrown out and trampled underfoot as worthless. The Value of Salt  Salt gives ...read more

    This is about the parable of the two sons.

    Passion Week Act 3 Teaching Jesus spent a great deal of time his last week on earth teaching. In this time we have the Great Commandment, the sheep and the goats, the signs of the end of the age, and many other famous teachings of Jesus. Read Matthew 21:28-32. We have here a clear simple story. ...read more

    To gain His treasure we must give all.

    (1) INTRODUCTION: "Again the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys the field." Matthew 13:44 What is this hidden treasure and how are we to possess it ? (2) Let us look at each section of ...read more

    Whipping The Slave Again

    Contributed by Matthew Morine on Mar 15, 2005
    based on 8 ratings
     | 4,477 views

    Does the one talent slave deserve another whipping? He did hide the master’s talent. But why did he hide it? Fear cripples. So God is going to work through the Gentiles now. Take that Pharisees.

    WHIPPING THE SLAVE AGAIN TEXT: MATTHEW 25:14-30 THEME: AN FALSE VIEW OF GOD CAUSES A LACK OF SERVICE. Should we give the one talent slave in Matthew 25:14-30 another whipping? We can get the whip out and provide another lashing for his lack of faithful service to his master. We can beat ...read more

    Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost September 30, 2001 Luke 16: 19-31 Heavenly Father, thank you for replenishing love when we give it away. Amen.

    The Unmerciful Servant

     | 18,799 views

    Those who appreciate the depth of sin that God has forgiven in them will forgive others as well.

    This morning, we continue our journey through the parables of Christ. Parables, as I’ve noted before, are short and simple. They don’t have complex plots, or dozens of characters, like a Russian novel. You don’t need a Ph.D. in theology or Hebrew literature to understand them. And yet, despite ...read more

    What The Master Knew

    Contributed by Michael Hollinger on Nov 9, 2005
     | 4,836 views

    (Parable of the Talents) Our God has already given us everything we need for life and godliness. We need to recognize that, and do something about it!

    Title: “What the Master Knew” Text: Matthew 25:14-20 I suspect if you’ve been in church for more than a few years you’ve heard of Jim Elliott. As a young seminarian at Wheaton in 1949, he was considered a bright and rising star, very well-liked and destined to go far. In 1955, he became a ...read more

    Variety in how we pray can help us to be consistent and persistent

    “Wearing Out The Judge” Pastor Bob Leroe, Cliftondale Congregational Church, Saugus, Massachusetts When the subject of prayer comes up, it raises some questions. First of all, since God already knows our needs, why even pray? Obviously God doesn’t need a briefing—He doesn’t need to be informed ...read more

    The Investments Of The Kingdom

     | 15,407 views

    What God puts into us with His Spirit, must be in turn invested back into the Kingdom.

    Matthew 25:14-30 -- “For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.” “And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took ...read more

    Matthew 21:33-46 The Parable Of The Vineyard

    Contributed by David Smith on Apr 20, 2005
    based on 28 ratings
     | 18,059 views

    Father Dave’s Sermon on Matthew 21:33-46 & the East Timorese Martyrs. The nature of God, the price he’s willing to pay for His ’Vineyard’ and the wait for the justice that will eventually take place.

    Wednesday is the feast of ’the Saints and Martyrs of Asia’. It is a tragic irony that on the very day it is celebrated, more East Timorese martyrs will probably be added to their number! A Protestant Christian leader has been killed. The Communion of Churches in Indonesia has confirmed that the ...read more

    Eternal destiny? Attitude? Eternal Separation?

    Lazarus and the Rich Man Luke 16.19-30 This parable is often ignored or used for evangelistic sermons about the permanency and reality of heaven and hell. Whilst it does deal with both of those subjects, that is not actually the core teaching of this parable. As always let us set the parable in ...read more

    God's Expectation Series

    Contributed by Rule Digal on Aug 11, 2008
     | 10,311 views

    The focal point of this parable is God’s expectation of His people, Israel or Christians. God is the owner of the vineyard who inspects and expects the fig tree –His people to bear fruit.

    This morning, we will study the parable of the barren fig tree. This parable is one of the shortest parables of our Lord in the Gospels. We don’t have fig trees here in the Philippines, so most of us I believe have not seen a fig tree. Fortunately, the internet is giving us anything we want to ...read more

    Wheat And Tare Believers Series

    Contributed by Bubot Parago on Apr 27, 2006
    based on 60 ratings
     | 12,527 views

    Wheat and Tare believers were both grown in God’s Kingdom but can be differentiated as they grow, as they mature and as they bear fruits.

    "...who hath ears to hear,let him hear." is the conclusion of Our LORD regarding this message, and this is also the words imparted to our churches nowadays. Many supposedly Christians are attending our Services every Sunday but why is it that they do not live enough to the power of God’s ...read more

    We must learn to see as Christ sees

    <READ Luke 16:19-31> One question I often get is this. They’ll say, “I want to understand the Bible.” As a good engineer, of course, I’m usually trying to figure out what the question means, and so I ask myself, what do they mean? “What precisely is it about the Bible that you want to know?” Do ...read more
