Vs.40Therefore many from the crowd, when they heard this saying, said, "Truly this is the Prophet." 41 Others said, "This is the Christ." But some ...read more

    Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jul 13, 2010
     | 4,646 views

    Speaking on grace has seemed one sided…when you speak of unconditional forgiveness, limitless love, & boundless acceptance. It’s just screaming to be abused and misused... here are three loop-holes:

    Speaking on grace has seemed one sided…when you speak of unconditioned forgiveness and limitless love and boundless acceptance… * The scent of sandal arises when you tell sinners that; “No matter what, God loves you and can forgive you.” or that “No amount of effort and works impresses God any ...read more

     | 11,976 views

    “Assuredly, I say to you that tax collectors and harlots enter the Kingdom of God before you. For John came to you in the way of righteousness and you did not believe him: but tax collectors and harlots believed him: and when you saw it, you did not after

    Theme: True Repentance Text: Ez. 18:1-4, 25-32; Phil. 2:1-13; Matt. 21:23-32 Many people today think that by saying they believe in Christ and go to Church makes them a Christian.

    The Christian And Judgment Series

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Dec 2, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,928 views

    We need to take a biblical approach to this difficult subject of judging. The world says, "Don't judge." What does God say? We need to be very careful.

    The Christian and Judgment Matthew 7:1-6 This is perhaps one of the most important exhortations, found anywhere in the Bible, given to a Christian. This does not do away with judgment nor condemn it entirely. It merely says that if we judge honestly and according to God’s word, we are safe, but ...read more

    If life is uncertain, & we can’t really know what will happen to us here, how DO we face the future? What should we do? Well, God has some answers to that question.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (Revised: 2022) TEXT: Ecclesiastes 8:7, 11:4; Proverbs 27:1; Joshua 1:2-11, 3:15-16 ILL. Several years ago there was a TV series called "Early Edition." I only saw a few programs, but its storyline was about a young ...read more

    Why Did The Angels Announce The Birth To Shepherds?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 6, 2017
     | 10,566 views

    A message about the choice to proclaim the news of Christ's birth to the lowly shepherds. The sermon looks at how the shepherds were a foreshadowing of who the ministry of Jesus would focus on.

    OF COURSE IT WAS SHEPHERDS: We act like this was an inevitable part of the story, but it wasn’t. - Luke 2:8-12. - The Christmas story is so familiar that we presume that each part had to happen that way. “Of course the shepherds heard from the angels. It had to be like that.” Only it didn’t. ...read more

    God Is Not Among You

    Assuming God's blessing is one of the most dangerous mistakes we can make in the Christian life. A group of Israelites made this exact mistake, and it cost them everything.

    Illustration: A photographer was hired to take pictures of a great forest fire; he got his office to hire a plane so he could take some airborne pictures. He arrived at the airport and jumped into the plane that was waiting for him. “Let’s go! Let’s go!” Startled, the pilot quickly swung the plane ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,063 views

    We don't like to think about the Day of Judgment. And when we do, we like to impose our own thoughts on how it will go. What does this passage tell us about our ability to get away from God's judgment?

    - There are additional things going on in this passage, but I want to focus on the overarching idea: trying to escape the judgment of God. UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTHS: 1. GOD IS THE JUDGE. - Genesis 18:25. - God plays many roles – Creator, Sustainer, Father. He also plays the role of Judge. 2. HE ...read more

    JESUS' OPINION: Jesus says the path to life is not in “finding yourself” but in “denying yourself.” - Matthew 16:24; Mark 8:34. - I’m thinking of the stereotypical statement that is so common that it’s almost a cliché: “I’ve got to go find ...read more
