    based on 207 ratings
     | 67,802 views

    Odd things about this story: Why does the Bible tells us "Jesus wept"? And why didn’t Jesus "show up" a few days earlier and make sure Lazarus didn’t die? Why allow this close personal friend to die, and allow his friends and family to mourn?

    OPEN: Back in March of 2008, the mayor of a city in SW France had a problem. It seems his village was running out of space. Not in housing, nor in the retail district, nor even at City Hall. It seems they were running out of space… in the cemetery. There was no room for any more graves. It was ...read more

    I always tell people who come to me that when a person meets Jesus, everything about him should change, which includes the way he talks, the way he walks, the way he dresses, the way he lives and most important the way he spends! Anybody listening?

    Lot was saved because God ANSWERED Abraham's prayer back in Genesis 18:23-32. James 5:16 (NLT) says "...The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results." So Lot starts afresh and they ALL LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER. NO

     | 7,288 views

    Nicodemus, a Pharisee, has come to Jesus at night. He is on a mission—a personal one it seems. He has come to Jesus in an attempt to figure Him out. He has come to the conclusion that Jesus cannot do what He does unless He has come from God.

    29 September 2005 Don’t Be Late! John 3:14-3:21 We will find in John 3:14-21 three reasons for why we believe in Jesus. And these three reasons are the three points for today’s Bible lesson. When we believe in Jesus, He becomes our: I. SIN (14-15) II. SALVATION (16-17) III. ...read more

    To many, Christianity is such a personal thing; they don’t want to share it. They have a ticket to heaven and don’t really care whether anybody else goes to heaven or not. We’re using first aid on ourselves, when there are hurting people all around us.

    INTRODUCTION For almost two years, I have been preaching through the book of Romans. We are coming to the last words of the Apostle Paul, and we get a glimpse of the missionary heart of this great Apostle.

     | 8,758 views

    Time reveals a person’s loyalty. Today we must apply much precaution to whom or to what we are loyal to! Most people do not deeply reflect as to why, or from where, they get their loyal convictions to someone or something, be it a friend, sports team, political party, or a religion or church!

    Loyalty: Do You Know Where Yours Is? Capt. Kelly Durant 10-11-15 Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.
