    Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 12, 2015
    based on 3 ratings
     | 11,739 views

    We have the tendency to avoid trouble and difficulty. We want to play it safe. If we would move into the realm of the supernatural, we must defeat our desire to stay in the Safe Zone and move into the Faith Zone.

    SAFE ZONE OR FAITH ZONE? Acts 9:10-19 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Wife:" There's trouble with the car. I think it has water in the carburetor." 2. Husband: "Water in a carburetor? That's ridiculous." 3. Wife: "I tell you the car has water in the carburetor." 4. Husband: "Honey, You don't even ...read more

    The Lord Jesus & the Early Church well knew their mission: to plunder the devil of his human captives! We must play catch up and get busy to populate heaven before the King comes! Come on!

    PLUNDERING HELL TO POPULATE HEAVEN Acts 17:1-17, NKJV INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: 1. How many of you know, that when you send a messenger, you want them to tell the correct message! 2.

    It's About Souls For The Kingdom

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jun 19, 2018
     | 3,270 views

    This is a mini sermon used to exhort the congregation before the giving of tithes and offerings. It's designed to help them understand why Jesus' mission (saving souls) must be their mission and the role giving plays in accomplishing it.

    Turn with me to Matthew 4. We’re going to read verses 17-20. (17) From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. (18) And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the ...read more

    The church must stop being reactive and always playing defense to satan’s attacks! It’s high time the church mounted, an offensive attack and became proactive against the never ending attack of the accuser!

    There is Hope As of today, there are people all over the world, sitting around and thinking about a lot of things. Will the economy rebound and what about the stock market? Am I going to be able to continue to work? When will all this end? When will things get back to normal? TBS. (now keep ...read more

    The history books in Heaven, are still writing and recording the Greatest story ever told! The opportunity to be part of the Greatest story ever told is still available, the question is will you play the part, you have been given?

    What's your part in the story? 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 NKJ 4 There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,346 views

    Joseph is really the unsung hero of the Christmas story. He did have a crucial role to play, and best of all, he obeyed God when he was told to do something. Joseph, we salute you!

    Introduction: Joseph, the husband of Mary, could be called the unsung hero of the Christmas story. He was a just or righteous man, he obeyed the instructions he received from God, and he also obeyed the command or decree from the Roman emperor when he was told he had to go to Bethlehem, home of ...read more

    This message is based on the understanding that the "spiritual" warfare explained in Revelation is being played out on earth in the life of Jesus. The 1st confrontation was the wilderness temptation. Mark 1:21 is the 2nd confrontation.

    The Cost Of Influence And Leadership

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Sep 2, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,496 views

    Those who assume positions of influence and leadership must be willing to pay the price to hold such positions. In this lesson we'll explore the price Peter paid in Antioch when he played the hypocrite and was rebuked by Paul.

    There are people in this world who possess the natural ability to lead and command the respect of others. Whether you call it charm, charisma, magnetism, or whatever, such people wield a powerful influence on those who look up to them as the embodiment of all they would like to become ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 4, 2023
     | 1,053 views

    This Psalm of Ascent has its focus on Israel and the constant persecution it endured. We look at the role churches played in this persecution (and Martin Luther). History must NOT be eradicated but we need to learn from it.

THE INTRODUCTION The next Psalm in the Songs of Ascent is not an easy one on which to deliver a message as it is more of a bible study Psalm. Also it ...read more

    Can a person who was saved be lost?

    Very truly, I tell you, whoever keeps my word will never see death.” John 8:51 (NRSV) Back in February, if you mentioned the phrase “perseverance of the saints” to anyone in the deep South, you’d probably get a quick rundown on the New Orleans Saints’ perseverance; ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 11,525 views

    In poker, the odds determine the winning hand. This same scenario played out in Christ's life: four of a kind beat the challenge of a full house. Four friends were able, against all obstacles and hindrances, to get their friend to Jesus. May we love thus!

     | 20,147 views

    Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. In a society that embraces sin, how do we keep clean?

    Additional Recommended Scripture Reading: Psalm 51 We live in a generation today that embraces sin all over the place. Writers of most television shows don’t present a message pleasing to the Lord, instead they write about violence, gratuitous sex, gossip, and hate. You can turn to any ...read more

    We, as Christians, need to guard our tongues.

    There are several ways that people use to decide what kind of individual another person is. A. I am not saying that all of these are valid....indeed, I do believe that a few of these measurements do not......accurately....indicate a person’s worth. 1. Valid, or ...read more
