    4 telltale signs of a carnal Christian from 2 Corinthians 12:11-21 (Adapted from Bob Russell's book on 2 Corinthians called "Take Comfort")

    HoHum: A famous sportscaster said that, for him, the start of the Indianapolis 500 was the most spectacular event in sports. To see those turbocharged automobiles roaring around Turn 4 and zooming across the starting line at 200 miles an hour to start the world’s most famous race is an incredible ...read more

    Specks & Planks

    Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 1, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,003 views

    This begins with a skit. We're supposed to judge ourselves before we judge others, because only then will we have clear enough vision – and humility – to assess other people’s issues are. We end with a look at the Law of Love about relationships.

    SPECKS & PLANKS Mt. 7:1-5 INTRODUCTION A. SKIT [Patient is seated in an optometrist chair. The doctor comes in with a 2X4 board across his eyes.] 1. Doctor: “Hello, I’m Dr. I. C. Faults. You’ve come to the right place. What seems to be the problem?” 2. Patient: “I work in a sawmill and I ...read more

    "He Gets Us”! But, Does He Take You As You Are?

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Oct 17, 2024
     | 550 views

    Some people with good intentions have created an advertisement named, He Gets US! Is it a proper depiction of the cause of Jesus Christ for mankind? Does Jesus approve of us the way we are?

    Some people with good intentions have created an advertisement named, He Gets US! I am sure many have seen it. I admire the effort to spread the name of Jesus, but I am disappointed in their content and implied message. Is it a proper depiction of the cause of Jesus Christ for mankind? Does Jesus ...read more

    Our Hearts Are Under Consturction

    Contributed by Steven Devroy on Mar 13, 2024
     | 1,211 views

    God is working to build character in our lives by changing our hearts.

    Last week we started a sermon series on how our character is under construction. Last week, we talked about that there is a battlefield that is happening in our mind. We were challenged to change the way that we think. That it is important to think positively, and in a biblical way. This type of ...read more

    When we look at this text, we realize that this is the conclusion of Jude's short letter. Notice that this is a benediction, a approval and a blessing upon the believers. It is one of the most well-known benedictions by Christians all over the world.

    “Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,” When we look at this text, we realize that this is the conclusion of Jude's short letter.

    A Piece Of The Rock

    Being human means living on a flood plain But when we build our lives on the foundation Jesus has given us we will make it through the storms that are always part of life.

    We’ve got some interesting weather going on around the world. Some people believe that it is all due to global warming, others say it’s part of normal cycles of climate change. But whatever you believe is the cause, there’s no doubt that we are more aware of what’s going on around the world than ...read more

    The Gifts We Bring Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Dec 10, 2023
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,892 views

    The gifts we give on Christmas are often given in gaily wrapped paper. The paper conceals what is hidden inside the present. Similarly, the gifts of the wisemen were like wrapping paper concealing special gifts of great value. Do you know what they were?

    Humorist Dave Barry wrote about the gifts that were brought by the Wise Men. He suggested that if you examined that story carefully, you’d find that there is an overlooked theological fact in the story. There is no mention of wrapping paper. Why? First, these guys were wise. And second… they were ...read more

    The Joy Of Forgiveness Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Aug 11, 2022
     | 3,501 views

    Psalm 51 is the great Psalm of forgiveness and mercy. There is in this Psalm the tragic reality of sin and the realization of how sin separates us from God. This is the Psalm that David comes face to face with his sin.

    The Joy of Forgiveness Psalm 51 The spark that started the fire of the first great awakening was a sermon delivered by Jonathan Edwards called, “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God.” When the Jonathan Edwards preached this sermon, you could almost not call it preaching. He read a manuscript ...read more

    Liars Or Living Letters? (1994)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Oct 20, 2022
     | 746 views

    Christian speech involves kindness, purity and truth as the three elements of godly speech for Christians. Take away any of those three and you are in danger of being a liar when the Bible makes it clear that we are to be living letters for the sake of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

    LIARS OR LIVING LETTERS? Text: Colossians 3:5-9a In the Walt Disney movie "Pinnochio" there is a scene where Pinnochio's nose grows every time he tells a lie. And the point of that scene is that the more you lie, the more you have to lie to make all your ...read more

    James Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 9, 2022
     | 3,060 views

    Even after more than two years of miracles, James is a skeptic. It would, after all, be rather hard to swallow the idea that the brother you had grown up with was the Son of God.

    Jesus came from a big family. Matthew 13:55-56 names Jesus' brothers: James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas and mentions sisters (plural), so He had at least six siblings. James is consistently named first when Jesus' brothers are listed, which in his day likely meant that he was the eldest of ...read more

    This message was prepared for a quarterly memorial service remembering residents of a senior living community who had passed away during the previous months.

    (If you have found this sermon helpful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) “When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, ‘Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord’” (Luke 5:8).

    Things I Should Have Learned In Kindergarten

    Hebrews 13 contains several life lessons we should have learned a long time ago, but need reminders on from time to time. From friends to marriage partners, Hebrews shows us what is really important.

    Hebrews 13:1-8 Things I Should Have Learned in Kindergarten Robert Fulghum wrote a popular book a while back entitled, “All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten.” I thought of that title when I read today’s scripture. It seems like a list of very important but mostly common sense ...read more

    The Crown Of Life ... For The Humble Or The Rich? Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jul 29, 2015
     | 6,137 views

    Those in humble circumstances and those who are rich undergo testing. This is a continuation of the opening themes of testing, endurance and victory in the first chapter of James.

    Today as we continue in the first chapter of the book of James we will be looking specifically at verses 9 through 12 but before we get into those verses let's read starting at verse one to refresh our minds with what the Lord is saying through James. James 1:1-12 “James, a servant of God ...read more

    One of the 7 angels invites John to witness the punishment of the great prostitute who sits on many waters – later identified as “BABYLON THE GREAT THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.”
