    Signs Of The Times?

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Jan 5, 2021
     | 2,377 views

    Every generation looks for the signs of Jesus' return. Maybe some of those signs are here, maybe not. In either case, we must pay attention and prepare for His return.

    1. The best fairy tales come from the worst fears… Many deal with poverty, famine, and abandoned children. There is often the added element of getting lost in the woods. Hansel and Gretel; Rapunzel; Little Red Riding Hood. . . 2. I want to tell you about a true scary story. It’s called, “The Year ...read more

     | 759 views

    Jesus paid the price you could never pay. The price He paid was not in silver or gold, but in His precious blood. Good Friday is not just a story—it is your story of redemption.

    GOOD FRIDAY: JESUS PAID THE PRICE By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Isaiah 53:4-6 "Surely He hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows... He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities... and with His stripes we are healed." Supporting Texts: John ...read more

     | 372 views

    Before Jesus departed from His disciples to return to heaven, after His crucifixion and resurrection to pay for the sins of the world, He offered several final messages that were – and still are – important.

    Revelation 21:1-6,12-20 Last words … Friends in Christ, When children leave home after high school or college, words are shared between parent and child to express love. When a loved one passes, if there is an opportunity, last words are shared are also shared to express love and gratitude. ...read more

    Grape Expectations Part 1 Series

    Contributed by James Westervelt on Apr 17, 2002
    based on 174 ratings
     | 10,780 views

    The Holy Spirit is not interested in producing a bunch of grapes with one big, fat grape and eight little, tiny grapes; but He wants us to grow in all nine characteristics simultaneously.

    We noticed when we first started this study that these qualities are called the FRUIT of the Spirit, not the FRUITS of the Spirit. So, "Conformity to Christ" is not symbolized by a "fruit salad," but by one multifaceted fruit. What do you think that fruit would be? A Bunch of GRAPES. The ...read more

    The Throne After The Second Coming Series

    Contributed by James O. Davis on Nov 2, 2003
    based on 78 ratings
     | 6,412 views

    There are several interesting characteristics about the Great White Throne judgment that need to be understood by both saints and sinners. The first thing I believe we need to notice is that it is a fearful sight.

    James O. Davis is the founder and president of Second Billion (TM). You are invited to learn more about Second Billion by visiting www.billion.tv. INTRODUCTION Our text tells us about the Great White Throne judgment in a message we call, “The Throne After the Second Coming.” This is the saddest ...read more

     | 19,579 views

    God is more interested in your availability than your ability. Explore several people in the Bible who, being very ordinary, were used by God to do great things.

    Ordinary People Used By God Text: I Corinthians 1:26-31 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak ...read more

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 25, 2010
    based on 6 ratings
     | 6,446 views

    It’s interesting that the first time wine is mentioned in the Bible, it is connected with drunken behaviour. BUT IT IS HAM’S DISRESPECT, NOT NOAH’S FAILURES THAT FEATURE IN THIS STORY.

    Genesis 9 – Part 3 – IF I CALL MY DAD AN IDIOT, AM I CURSED? Here’s the story – Noah gets drunk and gets naked in his tent. He behaves badly. He fails in terms of his witness to his family. He fails God in that he’s way out of control. It’s interesting that ...read more

     | 4,666 views

    After the lot fell on Jonah, there is an interesting conversation between Jonah and the mariners. The lot had divided the group on the ship into two groups. Jonah was in a group with himself with the mariners in the other group.

    The book of Jonah #05 The Dialogue of Jonah. Jonah 1:8-12 This is our fifth study on the book of Jonah. We are learning something about the character of the man the Bible calls Jonah. So far in our study he hasn’t been too impressive but I feel sure that is going to change. In our last study, we ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,999 views

    Confronting the normal tendency to promote our own interests,even while surrendering to the reign of God’s Spirit, goes a long way toward promoting unity within the congregation.

    JAMES 4:1–3 WE BELIEVE BETTER THAN WE BEHAVE “What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ...read more

    The reality is there is no perfect family. There is no perfect parent, parenting style, or parenting trick. “... God is more interested in using broken people than He is creating a better picture.”

     | 2,887 views

    Many people are mystified about the gift set having to do with speaking in unknown (to the one who is speaking) languages. This message seeks to shed some light on this interesting topic.

    Heavenly Languages Explained Pastor Eric J. Hanson May 24, 2015 Today is Pentecost Sunday. This is a good time to remember what happened on the first Pentecost after the resurrection and ascension of the Lord, and to consider what these things means for us now.

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,143 views

    REAL LOVE GOES BEYOND MERE SENTIMENT. LOVE MUST BE BASED UPON THE WILL TO LOVE EVEN WHEN CIRCUMSTANCES MAKE IT DIFFICULT. LOVE ACTS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE OTHER PERSON.

    RUTH 1 The Conviction of Love Love is a choice. God loved us when we behaved in unlovable ways. Romans 5:8 “ CHAPTER 1:3-10; 14-19 3 Then Elimelech, Naomi’s husband, died; and she was left with her two sons. 4 They took for themselves Moabite women as wives; the name of the one was Orpah and the ...read more

     | 16,315 views

    This sermon was preached at the funeral of a 5 year old boy named Jonathan . The objective is to remind us that children belong to God. It's interesting that the name Jonathan means gift of God.

    I. Children are God's Treasurable Gift. (They are invaluable because they remind us of the baby Jesus) II. Children are God's Temporary Gift. (They are temporary because of sin) III. Children are God's Timeless Gift. (They are timeless because of Christ death for sin) III. God's Son was ...read more

    Becoming A Globally-Minded Christian

    Mission and missions are not something the Bible merely speaks about – mission and missions are what the Bible is about. Since creation, God has been interested in redeeming all peoples to Himself.

    Today marks the end of a week set aside to pray for missions and our friends of our church who are spread around the globe for the cause of introducing people to the love of Christ. Let’s spend a few minutes of concentrated prayer for our friends. Father in Heaven, I pray You make Yourself so ...read more

    Bethel: "o Altar, Altar!"

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Aug 25, 2020
     | 7,485 views

    This may be the only sermon preached against an altar! When God's prophet came to Bethel, some interesting things happened. Something even happened to the altar itself.

    Introduction The Bible records messages proclaimed against many topics. This is especially true in the Old Testament: the prophets spoke about (and against) various kings, nations, and even the nations of Israel and Judah. The text here is unusual because, first, it’s spoken against an altar! So ...read more
