    We need to learn to see Lazarus before it’s too late!

    We continue with our study of the book of Luke, arriving now in chapter 16, verse 19. With the parable that we’re going to look at day, we see the final episode in a series of events that began in the first part of chapter 15, when a group of “sinners” and people of ill repute went to hear Jesus. ...read more

    Divine Destiny - Part Seven

    Idolatry can control a believer’s life and cause confusion and heartaches. A believer living like this is looking for a spiritual accent in their life, and that’s about all. It’s just like a spiritual band aid. This becomes a carnal relationship with t

    THE BIRTH OF A DREAM We had good services this morning, especially with having as many visitors as we did. We should remember them in prayer that the Lord will continue what perhaps began in their hearts. Traditionally, Easter and Christmas can bring in people that don’t normally attend church ...read more

    Jesus would probably find it very difficult today to find a church willing to have him as their pastor.

    Sermon for Luke 15:1-10 September 16, 2007 Jesus would probably find it very difficult today to find a church willing to have him as their pastor. You see, Jesus didn’t fit in the mold of what the church people (the Scribes and Pharisees) thought a religious leader should look like, or act like. ...read more

    In order to create a passion for the Lord we may need to be open to change.

    I desire passion in my life especially when it comes to my relationship with God. I hope it is alright to admit there are times when I come to church and passion seems to be lacking. When I speak passion I mean a deep desire, a extreme excitement and a longing love. When Passion is lacking we ...read more

    God's Enemies Oppose Jesus' Authority

     | 6,574 views

    Pentecost 23(A) - Jesus reveals how God’s enemies oppose his authority. It is man’s unbelief that sets traps. It is God’s truth that is our escape.

    GOD’S ENEMIES OPPOSE JESUS’ AUTHORITY (Outline) November 4, 2007 - PENTECOST 23 / REFORMATION - Matthew 22:15-22 INTRO: Our nation is still a melting pot of all kinds of people.

    God calls us to always remember who He is and who we are to be as His children.

    In Remembrance 05/24/09 AM Text: Luke 22:19 Introduction On May 30, 1868, our country observed the first day memorializing those who had fallen in battle during the Civil War.

     | 7,074 views

    Jesus words of rebuke in Luke 11 hit the nerve. Those he spoke to were determined to get revenge. If only they could have seen who He is. If only we could see today.

    We are entering the middle of Luke’s gospel now and already Jesus is engaging battle with the Jewish leaders. This is an ongoing battle that will ultimately lead to Jesus’ crucifixion and he knows it well, but does not show any signs of shrinking back. Jesus’ very presence should command respect, ...read more

    When You Turn On The Light

    Contributed by Nathan Johnson on Mar 6, 2009
     | 7,752 views

    Light reveals not only what we want to see but also what others don’t want us to see. Jesus, as the true light, does both, all for the purpose of offering freedom to a world trapped in darkness.

    When You Turn On the Light Griffith Baptist Church – 3/8/09 A.M. Service Text: John 8:1-12 (9:1-5) Key verse: John 8:12 - Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

    Is He The Christ? Series

    based on 28 ratings
     | 9,669 views

    If Jesus’ authority to not only interpret the Sabbath but also to work on the Sabbath indeed comes from God, then Jesus is making a messianic claim. This claim opens the way to questions concerning His origins—divine origins. Is He the Christ?

    JOHN 7: 25-36 IS HE THE CHRIST? The force of Jesus’ argument with the authorities seems to impress many in the audience who are either residents of the city or pilgrims in Jerusalem for the Feast of Tabernacles. Thus a shift in subject springs from Jesus’ last answer. If Jesus’ authority to ...read more

    Is It Really Legalism?

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Mar 31, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,735 views

    In many modern churches, legalism is no more than acknowledging that the Lord has given to His Church a body of legislation that He expects to be taught and obeyed.

    During my decades of Christian ministry, the terms “legalism” and “legalist” have progressively been bandied-about within modern churches and their preachers/pastors. These terms have, primarily, been used to describe and condemn those Christians and churches that believe that there is more to ...read more

    New Testament Religions

    It would be an understatement to say that the religious world is in a state of confusion. With hundreds of denominations in this country and thousands of religions worldwide, it’s sufficient to say that many people simply don’t know what’s going on.

    Introduction. You likely know that sin separates us from God (Isaiah 59:1-2). Therefore, in order to get back to God, we need religion. The word “religion” basically means to “tie or bind back to God again.” This fundamental belief in sin and redemption has fueled the development of many varied ...read more
