Mistaken Identity Series

Contributed by Ricky Tuttle Thd on Nov 2, 2025

Paul and Barnabas were involved in a mistaken identity of sorts, when they were thought to be something that they were not.

“Mistaken Identity” Acts 14:5-7, 8-18 While I was at a preachers meeting last week another preacher came to me and asked me where I lived. He told me that he knew a pastor in Florida that could pass as my twin. I don’t know if that was meant to be good or not. We took a picture of us together ...read more

Absorb The Word (James 1:21 ) Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Jun 19, 2021

What does it mean that the Word is already in you? Does that mean you don’t have to read it? No, it means you have the ability to receive it.

James 1:18 He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created. 19 My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, 20 for man’s anger does not bring about the righteous life ...read more

Route To Great Awakening

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024

We can go on living as though this world were everything, and there is no eternal world or great God to whom we are accountable. But when Christ returns will each one of us account for your life with joy?

Opening illustration: God awakened me when I went to work in the Middle East. Till then I was just a lukewarm and laidback Christian. I saw the great need for the Gospel of Christ to be proclaimed to the so many lost souls there. They had no idea that they were perishing and there was only one way ...read more

Dealing With Doctrinal Deviation

Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 29, 2010

God charges the church with the responsibility to avoid those who cause division and create obstacles. It is the responsibility of the entire assembly, and not that of the elders alone.

“I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naïve.” ...read more

The Preacher God Wants Us To Be

Contributed by Rick Crandall on Apr 28, 2013

How can we be the preachers God wants us to be? 1. We must have passion to share the gospel. 2. We must have pure hearts. 3. We must have a parent’s love.

The Trial And Death Of Jesus - God's Love For You Series

Contributed by Tom Shepard on Mar 27, 2007

This is a sermon for Palm Sunday 2007 but it could be preached at any time. It leads up to a resurection sermon. It shows Jesus’ love for us through His trial and death.

The Trial and Death of Jesus – God’s Love For You! A few years ago Mel Gibson put out a movie titled, “The Passion of Christ.” In that movie the last twelve hours of Jesus’ life was depicted in graphic detail. It is not a movie that I would sit down and watch for its entertainment value. But it ...read more

It’s Not The Messenger, It’s The Message

Contributed by Spencer Miller on Jun 9, 2013

Paul was direct and focused on what he had to do; he was a messenger of Christ, not of himself or anyone else and he knew it.

16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel! 17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me. 18 What is my reward then? ...read more

Prophet Enoch Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Jul 7, 2024

Enoch walked with God in a declining culture. He had a very close relationship with God in a world and at a time that was becoming very wicked. He was a powerful preacher.

Text: Genesis 5:21-24, & Jude 1:14-15 Theme: Prophet Enoch Greetings: The Lord is good and his love endures forever!

The Prophet And The People

Contributed by Glenn Durham on May 18, 2010

God calls his people to return and reward through prophetic preaching.

Scripture Introduction Throughout the story of redemption, one of the key characters is the prophet—one who tells God’s people who God is, and what he expects from them. That reminds me: did you know that Atheism is a non-prophet religion? I have one more: who was the greatest ...read more

Ministry Of Enoch Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Nov 2, 2023

The preaching of Enoch is quoted by Jude is not from a non-inspired book of the Jewish Literature, the Book of “1 Enoch”. Enoch had amazing spiritual revelations. The Book of Enoch is apocryphal.

Jude 1:14-15 - Ministry of Enoch Text: “Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints, to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed ...read more

Committed To Promoting The Gospel Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 28, 2016

Even though Paul was in bonds, he rejoiced that the Gospel continued to be preached. He refused to allow his circumstances create despair. We too must seek every opportunity to share our faith, while rejoicing for others who are committed as well.

Committed to Promoting the Gospel Philippians 1: 12-18 As one reads the opening verses of this letter, it is not immediately evident that Paul was bound in prison. His joy and positive attitude conceal the difficulties he faced daily. Although he was not free to move about within society, Paul ...read more

What Will Be Your Legacy?

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 11, 2022

In this text we see something that often occurs in churches. A man is sleeping in church.

But it is more than just a man sleeping in this passage of scripture. This man named Eutychus was sitting on a window sill while Paul preached a very lengthy sermon, and he fell out the window and died. • We ministers are indeed thankful for this passage of scripture, because when we see men and ...read more

Some of you may remember the answer to the question: ’What is green, has four legs, and if it falls on you from a tree and hits you it will kill you?’ The answer, of course, is a billiard table, though some of you may have been wondering whether the answer was ’Christmas’’, which is also green ...read more

Long-Winded Preachers

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Mar 19, 2017

Can you sing longer than you can listen to a sermon? Are you hoping he cuts the sermon short?

I posted on FaceBook a video by Todd White that is nearly two hours long. It amazes me that people willingly sit to hear him that long. I am always hearing people complaining about long-winded preachers. I had one deacon that felt seventeen minutes was good enough and if you cannot get it done in ...read more
