    based on 6 ratings
     | 13,372 views

    Each of us has different giftedness and God has bestowed these gifts so our local body can grow in a balanced and effective way. These gifts are like tools in the box of the Master Carpenter.

    ROMANS 12: 6-8a GIFTS OF SERVICE, TEACHING AND EXHORTATION Here in Romans 12 we encounter a partial treatment of spiritual gifts. Previously we learned that we all have "gifts that differ according to the grace given to us." In verses 6-8 Paul enumerates seven forms of Christian ministry ...read more

He was telling me that the children at his Church will be gathering with their parents at 2 pm on Christmas Eve for singing, dancing, and drama. There won’t be any food on offer as the Church is not able to feed such a large number. When ...read more

    Salvation is the gift of God to us in Christ.

    When the Scripture tells us that Jesus is the "one and only," it is saying that there was no one else like Him! 1. Jesus Is The One And Only Son! It has been said that a son is sure to resemble his father. Surely, this was true of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Jesus was God come in human form to ...read more

    Man and water have always had an interesting relationship. It is something that man cannot control, although it is all around him and vital for his survival. Over 75% of the earth’s surface is covered by water. We live in the land of 10,000 lakes, it is all around us as well. Despite that, it ...read more

    Found Useful

    based on 7 ratings
     | 2,846 views

    We have been purchased by the blood of Christ. We have been found to be useful by the King. Running away from God is not fullfiling the purpose that we have been called. Remember the slave tag, "If I should escape seize me and send me back to my master."

    “FOUND USEFUL” Return Me To The Master Reference: Philemon 1:1-25 Reverend Daniel A. Wheat Introduction: Have any of you ever asked someone to write a letter of recommendation?

     | 37,401 views

    This is the conclusion of our series in the Book of Jonah. This was a hard sermon that challenged our congregation to examine how we are like Jonah, and what we should do about it.

    Jonah Concluded Text: Jonah 4:5 – 11 So we’re finishing up in Jonah today… I thought after last week I’d be done with it, but as I was re-reading it… just going over it one last time to see if the Lord would have me say any more on this book. I realized that I ...read more

    Crucified For Us Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Apr 3, 2017
     | 3,615 views

    The fact that so long a portion of the Gospels is dedicated toward describing how Jesus suffered for us suggests we need to contemplate those events thoroughly.

    Crucified for Us Mark 15:21-32 1. This week, I came across a Jewish version of a joke I tell every year at camp. 2. Three Jewish sons left home, went out on their own and prospered. Getting back together, they discussed the gifts hey were able to give their elderly mother. The first said, ...read more

    Christ Gifted His Church

    Contributed by Paul Gauntt on Jun 1, 2006

     | 2,751 views

    As children of God and members of the Body of Christ, we are basically clueless as to the awesome power which has been vested in Christ’s New Testament Church, through His gifts working through us.

    Virtually every cardinal doctrine in the Holy Scripture is covered in Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. Ephesians consists of two basic truths - positional truth and practical truth. In studying this blessed book, I counted thirty nine different benefits which are ours as members of Christ’s Body ...read more

    based on 24 ratings
     | 6,683 views

    These gifts Jesus gave us we can never be duplicated; yet we can, in one form or another, give a toned down version of them back to God and even to our loved ones.
