Drawn And Quartered

Contributed by Chris Thron on Feb 12, 2001

Socially and emotionally, American Christians are being torn apart, and the Church is only making things worse.

This article exposes a deep flaw in the American Church. This flaw, which has been largely overlooked, has set the stage for the current epidemic of serious social problems, including crime, divorce, depression, drug abuse, and suicide. It follows that the Church is indirectly responsible for ...read more

Christmas Sermon

Contributed by Walter Pankow on Nov 18, 2004

A verse by verse commentary on John 1 for a 1931 Christmas sermon.

John 1:1-14 Christmas 1931 “In the beginning was the Word”. With these words the Apostle John connects the beginning of the Bible and the world with Christ, for as Scripture says, “All things were created by Him and for Him and to Him.” Jesus as the Word is the revelation of God.

Jews And Christians Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 3, 2021

The Savior of all men was a Jew, and this alone exalts the name of Jew to the highest degree. No other race can boast of a greater honor. In the flesh Jesus was a Jew, but in contrast Paul says that in the Spirit Jesus was God, who is over all blessed forever.

David Lefkowitz in explaining why he is a Jew tells the story of Nathan the Wise. A Sulton had just heard a Christian and a Mohammedan give their testimony as to the excellencies of their respected beliefs. It was Nathan's turn to tell why he was a Jew. Instead, he asked the ...read more

Guilty But Not As Charged Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 24, 2021

This passage makes it clear that man does not need to be totally depraved to be totally out of God's will, and that he who stands must beware less he fall.

A close study of the account of the fall of man has done more to open my eyes to the danger of tradition than any other study I have done. Those who profess to take it literally have done much in making it mythological by using it to teach lessons that have no basis in the text itself. Those who ...read more

Seagulls In The Empress

Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 3, 2018

The teaching you receive will either equip you to honour the Master or will serve to allow birds to invade and despoil your life.

“When the disciples went to the other side, they forgot to take bread. ‘Watch out,’ Jesus said to them, ‘beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.’ So, they began to discuss this among themselves, saying, ‘It is because we brought no bread.’ When Jesus learned of this, he said, ‘You ...read more

The Great Pillars Of Society: Morality & Religion

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 26, 2021

There is something missing from our republic. It's something obvious, something vital. It brings light to the mind and thoughts of glory into action. Yet it's missing. It's gone somewhere; but where has it gone?

"The great pillars of all government and of social life are virtue, morality, and religion. This is the armor... and this alone, that renders us invincible." -Patrick Henry, Letter to Archibald Blair, January 8 1799 There is something missing from our republic. It's something ...read more

Who Will Deliver Me! Series

Contributed by Greg Nance on Apr 28, 2005

The law of God is perfect, but we are not. Trying to live up to God’s standards with our own steam is an impossible task. Before power comes freedom! ...Free from sin, free from death, even free from the law!

If I were to take a long piece of super-duper duct tape and stick it firmly to your hairy arm, how would you prefer to have it removed if you only had these two choices: Slowly, pulling out one hair at a time, or suddenly, ripping it off instantly? Most of us would prefer a quick rip. Well, when ...read more

Compromise

Contributed by John Butler on Mar 3, 2008

As we look at the life of Moses we see that there is no room for compromise in a believer’s life.

Compromise 1) Introduction a) The word compromise does not appear in in the Holy Scriptures, though it is a common word in our Evangelical vocabulary today. Compromise is a common word in political, labor, marital, and parental disputes. Can we use this principle in religion? In our ...read more

Ivd2 While Having Appearances Of Wisdom, Such Practices Have No Value (Col. 2:23) Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Dec 8, 2019

I am amazed at the way educated people in America flock to see and hear gurus and other Eastern spiritual leaders whose teaching cannot change the human heart.

1/2/19 Tom Lowe IVD2 WHILE HAVING APPEARANCES OF WISDOM, SUCH PRACTICES HAVE NO VALUE (COL. 2:23) Scripture: Colossians 2:23 (NIV) Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack ...read more

Series Introduction Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Aug 18, 2021

When someone mentions the Sermon on the Mount, most immediately think of the Beatitudes. That was the introduction of the message, but if that is all we take away from this powerful message, we have missed much truth and benefit for our lives.

Series Introduction Matthew 5: 1-2 I would like to begin laying the groundwork for a series of messages I hope to preach on The Sermon on the Mount. I think we would all agree that Jesus was the greatest preacher to ever open the pages of God’s Word and expound upon a passage. In chapters 5-7 of ...read more

The Journey Of Joy

Contributed by John Newton on Dec 17, 2023

Three perspectives on joy from Isaiah

As I was preparing to preach this week, I considered giving my sermon the title “Getting Serious About Joy”. Then I thought better of it and came up with “Joy Is No Laughing Matter”. All joking aside, were you aware that joy is currently the subject of a high-level academic examination? Nine years ...read more

The Devil In The Church

Contributed by Jerry Shirley on May 12, 2005

There’s a bullseye atop our churches which the prince of the power of the air sees as he roams, seeking whom he may devour. His method of harming the church is "infiltration." Link included to Formatted Text and Powerpoint Template.
