    Anointed With Fresh Oil

    Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 3, 2016
    based on 3 ratings
     | 53,901 views

    I don't like things that are stale. They taste sour, limp, bitter, etc. Many Christians are stale! They got the Spirit years ago, but none lately. God wants us to have a FRESH experience of the Spirit. He promises us FRESH OIL!

    ANOINTED WITH FRESH OIL Ps. 92:10 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: JUST TO BE SURE 1. Ever since Emma joined her church's choir, she'd been singing in her kitchen while preparing dinner. But strangely, whenever she started singing, her husband Joshua opens the front door and stood on the doorstep. 2. Emma ...read more

    Christ Before Pilate, Pilate Before Christ

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 13, 2017
     | 10,436 views

    We find, when Pilate called Jesus in for judgment, that it wasn't Jesus who was on trial, but Pilate! Imagine how it will be at the Great White Throne Judgment when Pilate stands before the King of Kings in blazing splendor! How terrible it will be!

    CHRIST BEFORE PILATE, PILATE BEFORE CHRIST Mt. 27:11-26; Jn. 19:6-12 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: THE STATE DINNER 1. A New York Governor invited a group of clergy to the State House on a Friday for breakfast. However, as soon as they all were seated and the food was delivered to the table, he began to ...read more

    I, Too, Must Die!

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Mar 10, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,843 views

    In this Scripture Jesus confirms that He IS the Christ, the He must die and that He will rise again. Also in this Scripture we see that we must believe Jesus is the Christ, that we must die and be raised; raised to eternal life or eternal death.

    Mark 8:27-38 (Please open your Bibles so you can read along) Today we will start following Jesus down the road to the cross and then finally to the resurrection. This, of course, is not something we speak about only at this time of year. This great act of mercy and salvation is the pivotal event ...read more

    Rewards That Keep On Giving! Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on May 7, 2018
     | 6,383 views

    Some of our rewards are represented by crowns. Whether victors’ garlands or signs of authority — or both— they merit further examination.

    Rewards That Keep on Giving! (see note at bottom of page first to suggest that diadems are a sub-category of the broader word garland, which includes but is not limited to a victor's wreath but can be used of royal privilege as well). 1. “More than 40,000 people have claimed 078-05-1120 as their ...read more

    God Can See What Man Is Doing

    Contributed by Travis L. Billings on Aug 5, 2019
    based on 2 ratings
     | 8,472 views

    God shows Ezekiel the abominations that are taking place. These abominations are still taking place today in the church. Even though man may not know it, or think God does not see what is taking place, God knows and can see everything that is taking place.

    Ezekiel 8 Remember, it was Ezekiel’s unenviable task to remind the people of their sins and their transgressions against the Holy and Mighty God. During a time where the people believed they were doing ‘just fine,’ Ezekiel had to call out their sins in a way that would almost seem like a burden ...read more

    Rehoboam failed to treasure what he has, he abandoned the Law of the Lord and forfeited the true worship of God. Heed 2 Chron 12:14 words - let us set our heart on seeking the Lord.

    Over the past 3 sermons we have been looking at King Jeroboam and his Northern Kingdom of Israel, the ten tribes that had defected. • They defected not just from David’s dynasty but from God. King Jeroboam led them into idolatry, creating another new religion, with new gods. What about the ...read more

    "Gaius - A Commendable Christian” Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,643 views

    Gaius was a believer who is commended by the Apostle John for two things that all believers should seek to have be true of them.

    In the book of Third John, we read a tale of three Christians - Gaius, who John commended; Diotrephes, who John saw as cantankerous; and Demetrius, who John cited as being consistent in His walk with Christ. John identifies himself here as “the elder,” which is a term that is used interchangeably ...read more

    A sermon on prayer from the book of Acts (Much material taken from Jerry Paul's sermon called "Restore New Testament Prayer" http://www.thecra.org/avitems.htm under 2006 Symposium)

    HoHum: Daniel Henderson- In our culture of rugged individualism we have come to the conclusion that it is better to pray alone than with others.  Unfortunately, most of us never learn to do either one very well.  Like most disciplines of the Christian faith, we learn best to pray alone when we have ...read more

    our attitudes describe our individual nature. Is our attitude Christ like?

    In 1928 Eduard Spranger wrote about his studies in human attitudes. Attitudes are described as representing the individual’s way of viewing the world we know in connection with an individual’s preference to participate in it. Spranger described six major attitudes as noted in the ...read more

    Conversation amongst Jesus and the thief on the cross; are you listening to Jesus or simply hearing Him?

    “Are You Listening to Truth?” John 18:36-38 36 Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place.” 37 “You are a king, then!” said Pilate. Jesus ...read more

    Freedom From The Oppression Of The Taskmasters

    Just like Pharaoh somehow had strange suspicion that he’d better do something to hold these people back. The enemy has that same inclination to want to hold you back from your promise, from your position, from your calling, from fulfilling what God has placed on your life

    Freedom from the Oppression of the Taskmasters Study Text: Exodus 1: 8-14 Introduction: - There came a new king who had no covenant with Joseph. God brought him up out of the pit, put him right in second in command, right under Pharaoh. - Pharaoh said, “Take my kingdom,” and so forth. ...read more
