Sermons on Raise From Dead:

Zombie Christianity

Contributed by Charles Newman on Mar 16, 2009

A church that is spiritually dead can still hold services, sing hymns, offer prayers, deliver sermons, and do works of ministry – they can go through the motions of “doing church” but they will never be the church without being alive in God’s Holy Spirit!

From Death To Life Series

Contributed by Douglas Phillips on Sep 17, 2015

THIS IS THE SECOND OF A TWO-PART SERMON ON PAUL'S TEACHING ON SANCTIFICATION. HE USES BAPTISM TO TEACH THAT AS CHRISTIANS WE ARE NO LONGER UNDER THE DOMINION OF SIN BECAUSE WE UNITE WITH CHRIST, NOT JUST IDENTIFY WITH HIM, IN HIS DEATH, THROUGH BAPTISM.

FROM DEATH TO LIFE WE NEED TO REMEMBER AS WE START TODAY, THAT THE BOOK OF ROMANS IS A LETTER THAT ORIGINALLY HAD NO CHAPTER OR VERSE BREAKS. WHEN WE GET TO THE END OF CHAPTER FIVE, IT DOES NOT MEAN WE’VE REACHED THE END OF PAULS THOUGHT ON THIS ISSUE. LISTEN WHEN I READ THE LAST TWO ...read more

From Womb To The Tomb

Contributed by Chris Mccall on Apr 21, 2025

You may be wondering what does “From Womb to Tomb” have to do with the Easter message. There had to be a journey to get there. I want to take on that journey so that we may connect with the fullness of Easter & the incredible value it has brought to all who truly accept the Good News gospel.

Here we are with one of the greatest weekends that the church gets to celebrate each year. If it were not for this weekend’s event taking place, there would be no gospel nor a message of Good News! I am always humbled delivering this message of hope on this weekend because there are many who ...read more

Jesus' Passion
