    This sermon deals with our willingness to step out and stand alone for the cause of Jesus Christ. Not everyone who calls Jesus "Lord" knows Him as such.

    Step Out From The Crowd NLF 9/15/02 OT 2 Chronicles 26:16-20 Mark 8:31-39 Text Matthew 7:21-37 Have you ever seen one of the cartoons in which about 10 people are standing in a straight line.

    The Romans seemed to enjoy the crucifixion. This message explains why, while answering the question, "who really did crucify Jesus?" The answer might surprise you!

    Title: Why was Crucifixion the Passion of the Romans? Text: Galatians 2:20 Three men participating in army war games were hit with paint pellets, which were fired at them by their opponents.

    This is one part of a series I did on eyewitnesses of Jesus Christ. Each message was prefaced by a dramatic monologue, which is included.

    The Greatest Sermon Of The Year

    Contributed by Scott Cody on Aug 14, 2003
    based on 18 ratings
     | 5,737 views

    A collection of passages from the Bible that tell God’s great story in one brief sermon.

    It’s a bit presumptuous for someone to claim to deliver the greatest sermon of the year, but I make no apologies for today’s lesson or it’s claim. That’s because God’s going to do the preaching today. Sometimes, preachers get in the way of God’s powerful message of hope. So let me quit sharing my ...read more

    The Cost Of A Christ-Centered Life

    based on 28 ratings
     | 18,556 views

    Salvation is a free gift, it can’t be earned or deserved. However, for the Christian to live a life Centered on Christ...it will cost us something. David would not give what did not cost him anything...so what are our "costs"?

    "The Cost of a Christ-Centered Life" SONG TO INTRODUCE THE MESSAGE - "Yes, Lord, Yes" Oh, how we MUST say yes! -Like Isaac’s willingness as he gave his life on the altar...we too must be willing to say YES to what God asks? Now, I know that most of us have already said yes to the Lord...being ...read more

    My unbelieving (at the time)father, one time while I witnessed to him, asked "If God exists, why deosn’t He just blow a big hole in the ground or something?" The Apostle John answers this question in his synopsis from all he learned in his experiences wi

    Before our Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S., I was prompted at 5:30 AM Saturday morning to change my planned sermon text to consider Israel’s harvest festival. This sermon is full of details, to be avoided by those who don’t like teaching in preaching.

    This sermon needs a disclaimer and it doesn’t need to be one of those bits of legalese that we see in 6 point type in a print ad, appears briefly in barely legible type at the bottom of a television screen, or is read as rapidly as possible by a radio announcer: “Offer listed is manufacturer’s ...read more

    I want to share from this text because we want to move towards becoming an evangelistic church. We want to become a church family that freely witnesses, testifies and spread the gospel message for Christ and his kingdom.

    The Power of the Gospel Our scripture lesson is taken from Romans 1:16-18, Ҧ For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
