    The Lord's Supper

    Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Sep 26, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 264 views

    Communion isn’t just a private moment; it’s a shared act that shapes the church. In 1 Corinthians 11:17–34 Paul corrects abuses and gives a pattern: remember Christ, proclaim His death until He comes, examine ourselves, and consider one another.

    Old Man Thanks God for a Solitary Lunch This week we’re in our second week of our communion series, and before I get into the sermon today, I just want to go ahead and encourage you to grab the elements if you haven’t yet. We’re going to take communion today as part of the message, so if you need ...read more

    Are You Concerned About Your Friends Without Christ? Series

    Those people out there without Christ are not going to break down the doors of this church to get here and learn about Jesus. We cannot be complacent until someone has shared with them like somebody shared with us.

    INTRODUCTION Please open your Bibles to Romans, chapter 9. Today I am going to preach to you. You say, “Well, I thought that’s what you did every Sunday.” Actually, those of you who hear me Sunday after Sunday realize about 90 percent of the time I am a pastor-teacher. ...read more

    This is the final key to unlocking the door to revival in our lives and in the church. But it is the least used key in the Body of Christ because it’s the hardest to pick up and use in the lock.

    Paul had an open door of OPPORTUNITY. There were many OBSTACLES. God helped him to OVERCOME! Link included to Formatted Text version, Handout, and PowerPoint Presentation.

    Tearing Down the Temples of Hell Acts 19:8-27 Paul stayed in Ephesus for 3 full years…not his normal pattern. There was much work to be done there, and w/ a pop. of 300,000 people, it was the capital of the Roman province of Asia. 1. Paul’s opportunity I Cor. 16:8-9 But I will tarry at ...read more

    When Jesus Says Come: He has just opened a door for you to a greater life than you could imagine, but it will cost you something to get it.

    I prophesy right now that before this message is over, somebody is going to hear Jesus say come. It’s going to be just as real for you as it was for Peter on that stormy night, Jesus has not changed and he is still calling people to walk on the water and somebody ...read more

    Prayer Changes Lives

     | 6,920 views

    Intercession for the lost does not guarantee salvation but it opens tremendous doors for those that we intercede for and the Lord is calling us to faithfully pray and follow that up with our testimony of love.

    Last week we looked at the foundational parts of having a close encounter with God. (Close Encounters with God) We saw how God wants to meet with us every day and that face to face encounter begins with our welcoming him. Then we worship him. We pour out our hearts to him. And finally we ...read more

    Do We Have A Vision Of Goodness?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Feb 4, 2023
     | 760 views

    Are we focused just on what and who is inside our church doors? Or are we looking, searching and sharing what we have with others so that they may come in?

    In this context, vision alludes to the disclosure (prophesy) that the prophets would obtain from God. Where there is obliviousness of God, sin and crime go out of control. The public moral compass of society relies upon the knowing God’s directions, yet it likewise relies upon individuals keeping ...read more

    The Announcement Youth Sermon

    Jesus' arrival brought the Kingdom of Heaven to earth and opened the door for us to become citizens of God's Kingdom. We need to repent and align our lives with the Kingdom of God.

    Jesus' arrival was a big deal, and it was predicted way back in the Old Testament. The Jewish people were waiting for this hero, the Messiah, to show up and set things right. John the Baptist was like the hype man, telling everyone, "The Kingdom of Heaven is coming. Get your act together and ...read more

    The Greatest Qualification

     | 4,338 views

    Some people consider qualifications earned in conventional educational institutions like primary, secondary, polytechnic or university as the best platform capable of opening doors of greatness to any man. That may be true in some respects but not necessarily so in all circumstances!

    “And as He sat upon the Mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately, tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?” (Mark 13:3-4)

    Theme: Know the signs of the end time Text: 1 Sam. 1:4-10; Heb. 10:19-25; Mark 13:1-8 The Word of God is filled with prophecies many of which have already been fulfilled.

    Hope When I Feel Alone Series

     | 2,448 views

    The birth announcement of Jesus was exciting and challenging all at the same time. Immediately she experienced "aloneness." Her fiancé wanted to put her away privately. Her future kids would not initially believe her story. What do we learn from Mary's "aloneness?"

    This year is the 33rd anniversary of the “Home Alone” movie where a young boy named Kevin McAlister was accidently left behind and alone in his home during the holidays while his family causing young Kevin to have to set up bungling traps for “to be” burglars- “Harry and Marv.” The last 33 years ...read more

    Practice Makes Perfect

     | 13,194 views

    Your personal best requires that you take on the mindset of an athlete. An athlete runs to win. They exercise disciplines for the win when the door opens for opportunity. They sacrifice for what they believe in.

    Everyone has heard the phrase “Practice makes perfect” or at least I think they have. It’s such an old adage, I’m not sure if anyone knows who said it first. Regardless of who coined the phrase, the Bible is full of wisdom concerning this very notion of practice and results. ...read more

    This message was preached 5 years @ Elim Bible Church, a "start-over" Church. I am thrilled to say is still moving foward, after nearly closing her doors.

    A Fresh Start Ph.3: 13-14 Have you ever felt like you just needed a fresh start…a do-over? Sometimes we are given an opportunity for a fresh start but how we handle the fresh start will determine how we finish.

    The Lord has given us seven keys to unlock doors of blessedness. May we ever realize that God’s blessings are not always in finances and materials but more importantly spiritual!

    Intro: There are still people in the world who foolishly rely on weird superstition and rituals supposedly designed to “attract” blessings and happiness. The Bible gives us seven principles and promises to remain truly blessed. The word blessed=happy (Hebrew "asher" and Greek ...read more
