    based on 13 ratings
     | 41,344 views

    God can use people with or without natural ability and proper background. God often chooses to work with raw material. He prepares and empowers those He chooses to do His work. He does not need to use people who took the part or who are already popular.

    Sermon 2 in the Love As Christ Loved Us series

    When I preached the previous sermon of this ‘one another’ series, I said that our repetitious theme would be, LOVE AS CHRIST LOVED US.

    We have a heritage, we have a future, we also have a destiny! It’s time we stood up collectively together and reclaimed what has been stolen from under our very nose and is rightfully ours!

    Live life like you were living! There are a lot of things that excite people in life. There’s music, sports, money excites a lot of people! What gets you going? Why does society become so excited over man made achievements and events in life? Wining an Oscar, or a Super Bowl ring everyone would ...read more

    Melchizedek.... Hebrew kids heard about him all the time. His story was familiar but what does this old priest tell us about the greater Priest; Jesus. He's got a lot to say.

    The Bible is by far the most unique and amazing books on planet earth. I especially love the Old Testament stories. As a child I remember my mother reading me the Old Testament Bible Stories at night at bedtime. As a boy, I was mesmerized by the stories and still are to this day. My favorite ...read more

    James tells us the story of a rich man and a poor man who came to church one day. One appeared to be a winner – the other a loser. How should a group of losers who have been made winners by Christ treat such people?

    No body likes a loser. Have you ever seen a losers circle at the racetrack? When is the last time you saw the runner-up on a box of Wheaties? People generally think little of losers. That makes it all the more hurtful to some when someone like Ted Turner is quoted as saying, “Christianity is for ...read more
