    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,959 views

    A reminder of some of the things heaven won't have.

    IN HEAVEN “After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will show thee things which must be hereafter.” Revelation 4:1 1. IN HEAVEN THERE WILL BE NO ...read more

  • Belief In The Resurrection Of The Dead

    Contributed by Sajeev Painunkal, Sj on Nov 6, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,773 views

    The Sadducees try to ridicule Jesus with a stupid question about what happens in heaven. The answer of Jesus is not about the how but they why. If we don't believe in a life after death, we will have no purpose for our life on earth.

    People sometimes ask stupid questions. They know it is stupid; but they ask them anyway. When somebody asks a stupid question, we can assume that either they are too naïve, or they are sarcastic. And most of the time they are not naïve; they are trying to make us look foolish trying to answer ...read more

     | 10,113 views

    Jesus talks about the end of the world. But the focus is not on fear and trembling; but on faith and trust in him, and preparing for it through right living now.

    End times I was ordained on a November day six years ago. The ordination was at my home parish, and prior to that I was still finishing my study of Theology in another city in India. Of course the ordination was a huge celebration, and needed a lot of preparation. Since I was away, most of the ...read more

  • God Speaks With Crystalline Clarity

    Contributed by Jon Mackinney on Aug 29, 2011
     | 2,142 views

    In the hours of Christ's Crucifixion and at the moment of His death, God was talking. The people there missed it, for the most part. But we need to hear what He is saying.

    Passage: Matthew 27:45-56 Intro: One of my favorite parts of Revelation is chapter 10:3-4 1. seven thunders, which “speak” so that John is ready to write what they say, but he is prevented. 2. I believe this is God talking. 3. wish we knew what He said. But we do know what He ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,026 views

    We want two things when we suffer; for the suffering to stop, and for it to stop now. But the Bible has a different perspective

    Passage: James 5:7-12 Intro: 1. the typical and understandable response to suffering is to end it. Il) see suffering, we want to alleviate it, rescue the cat in the tree, the puppies stuck in the drainpipe, the horse that has fallen through the ice. ` 2. James in this passage is not ...read more

    Trials / test are the very soil in which we grow! What form do they come in? For-warned is forearmed.

    Form of our Test, Trials, and Temptations James 1:2,3 I heard about a pastor who placed this sign on his door: "If you have problems, come in and tell me all about them. If you don’t have any problems, come in and tell me how you avoid them." In my opinion, verses 2-4 are some of the most ...read more

    Describes and contrasts the hearts of the Pastor, the People and God, leading to reconciliation.

    Heart of the matter Have you ever tried to buy something in an electronics store recently?

  • Christ: Author Of Salvation Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,591 views

    Christ as the one who leads the way for believers, even in the most difficult times.

    In our modern world, and especially as the 21st century is upon us we are still in many ways bothered by the notion that God sent his son to suffer and to die. We are bothered because it seems to us, as it would seem to any rational person, like a very harsh thing for a god of love to do. ...read more

    INTRODUCTION: (Ordination of Glen Colby) This evening is a special night for me, not just for the Colby family. First of all, it is my first opportunity to be involved in an ordination ceremony. Next, when I was growing up the deacons at my church were some of my heroes. These men were such ...read more

  • Reflection

    Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Mar 13, 2012
     | 8,835 views

    Jesus' cleansing of the temple graphically proclaims that the temple was no only needed. Jesus is the the temple and with the Holy Spirit in us, we become a temple. God is among his people, bringing in his kingdom.

    John 2:13-22 “Reflection” INTRODUCTION I have always found the scene of Jesus cleansing the temple puzzling, if not troubling. It seems so out of character for Jesus. Certainly, he has shown anger before at the hardheartedness and judgmentalism of some people, but he has never ...read more
