    Part 15 - Matthew 8:28-34 - An Unhealthy Desire For Power Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 7, 2010
    based on 29 ratings
     | 9,543 views

    THE DESIRE FOR POWER IS OFTEN THE DOORWAY FOR THE DEMONIC. These men couldn't be bound by chains but they were certainly bound by Satan. They were almost completely under the control Satan, enslaved to him.

    Part 15 - Matthew 8:28-34 - AN UNHEALTHY DESIRE FOR POWER My daughter and son-in-law once lived in Parramatta in Sydney, quite near an old cemetery. It had historic significance for Sydney and was protected, I think, by the national trust. It angered me when it was vandalised. A part of our ...read more

    James and John thought they were pulling a fast one. But their values were updside down.

    Passage: Matthew 20:20-28 Intro: The great thing about studying a book all the way thru is that you begin to identify recurring themes. 1. and the Bible is a book where repetition means emphasis, because it is essentially a Hebrew book. 2. ever since the Beatitudes way back in chapter 5, and ...read more

    Living For A Higher Calling Than Me Series

    Contributed by Charles Whitmire on Jan 27, 2008
     | 2,608 views

    This is the third message in the Contrarian’s Guide series. This week we look at idols, and how as odd as it sounds, if we are not careful our idol becomes "me."

    This is our third message in our contrarian series - we’ve been looking at things from a little different perspective, or vantage point. Last week we talked about slowing down - rather than speeding through life, maybe if we slowed down we could learn to hear God. The week before that we talked ...read more

    Do You Give God The First Fruits Of Your Day ?

    Contributed by Stephen Smarowsky on Jun 11, 2008
    based on 28 ratings
     | 22,919 views

    If morning devotions were important to Jesus and David, they should also be important to us, if not more vital to our spiritual sustenance.

    Do You Give God the First Fruits of Your Day (Mark 1:35-37) Introduction: The shortening of private devotions starves the soul. William Wilberforce, Christian statesman of Great Britain in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, once said, “I must secure more time for private devotions.” Following ...read more

    Staying Unified Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,558 views

    In order to stay unified, we are to relate to each other the way we relate to Jesus, and in our relationships, be like Jesus.

    Philippians 2:1-11 Staying Unified Canadian & American Worms Joke My experience in church life can be like that, but often times it is more that the worms are crawling over one another to get on top! It is amazing that in the smallest churches that I’ve been involved in, there are at least a few ...read more

    The angel declared good news to the terrified shepherds, the Savior is born!

    Good News in a Bad News World Luke 2:8-20 Pastor Don Jones Introduction I can always count on two truths in life. The most important is, Jesus is my Savior and Lord and it is He who will never leave nor forsake me. Nothing, as Romans 8:38-39 says, will separate me from Him. No, in all these ...read more

    “The Fall of Man” is a term of theology that is not found in The Scriptures; however, the essential fact is a matter of scripture record and of clear reference. From Genesis to Revelation we see the actions of “The Fall of Man” it cannot be ignored!

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Aug 25, 2016
     | 6,310 views

    The church is fueled by God's glory according to Ephesians 3.14-21. Within the church we have the manifestation of his presence and the magnification of his person.

    Christians like Eagles are special built by God to soar the heights of glory.

    Quotes: “There is an eagle in me that wants to soar, and there is a hippopotamus in me that wants to wallow in the mud” - Carl Sandburg “If we never had the courage to take a leap of faith, we'd be cheating God out of a chance to mount us up with wings like eagles and watch us ...read more

    No One Likes A Bullying God Series

    Contributed by Troy Luttrell on Mar 21, 2014
     | 5,659 views

    This sermon addresses the question that if God is a God of love and mercy, why does the Bible seem to suggest that God is more like a bully that He is friend.

    Background: • Last week we talked about whether it is possible for God to change His mind. And we learned that God’s heart is set to move to one of two positions depending on man’s reaction….judgment for wickedness; mercy and forgiveness for ...read more

    Hosanna! Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 12, 2013
     | 6,656 views

    To the Jews, Hosanna meant "Help - Save us!" But it morphed in its meaning in a way that gives us all hope. This psalm is jammed full of Messianic references and hope for the future king of the world: Jesus.

    In this psalm we see the victory brought about by the Lord for a king of Israel. It is full of Messianic references. As such I think we can also safely look at it in terms of the victory God won for us over sin through His Son Jesus. Let’s begin, though, in Mark 11, which we normally study ...read more

    Go The First Ten Feet

    Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Apr 8, 2017
     | 4,682 views

    Self-denial is to be lifted with Jesus—and the first ten feet of his ascent is on the Cross. You cannot reach for Jesus without letting go of the things you’re holding onto. Make it your passion to go the first ten feet with Jesus.

    "When I am lifted-up," Jesus said, "I will draw all people to myself." And just in case you are tempted to interpret this up-lifted status to mean something glitzy, John sticks in a little commentary in verse 33 to make clear that the "lifting up" Jesus had in mind was the cross. Ultimately Jesus ...read more
