    Warriors For Christ

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 26, 2017
     | 12,930 views

    Are you a civilian or a soldier in your attitude toward your Christianity? 2 Tim. 2:4 says you're "chosen by Jesus to be a soldier!" Peter said to "weaponize" yourself with the attitude that you're to endure suffering. Come on Church! Rise up and conquer

    WARRIORS FOR CHRIST 2 Tim. 2:3-4 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. At one Army base, the annual trip to the rifle range had been canceled for the second year in a row, but the semi-annual physical fitness test was still on as planned.

    Three comforts Jesus gives his disciples and for us in discouraging times.

    The Comforting Christ Introduction:  It is amazing how Christ will rush down from his throne to wrap his loving arms around us during our darkest times.  God's love for us is truly amazing.  We sometimes believe that if we do more for God, he will love us more.  If we witness more, or if we give ...read more

    The Leading Of Christ Series

     | 5,349 views

    Our scriptures are unique in that Christ chose 3 of the 12 disciples to follow Him “into an high mountain apart.” One can only wonder why Jesus chose only 3…

    THE LEADING OF CHRIST Being a disciple of Christ is very important to the Plan of God. Trying to navigate on your own (without God) can be a mistake. When my wife and I travel we usually take our Garmen Navigation and sit it on the dash of our car. We try not to get lost, but it happens… and it’s ...read more

    1Co 12:12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. 1Co 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink ...read more

     | 4,694 views

    We are told the precise day of Christ's Return in relation to the Tribulation Period. We just don't know when that will begin.

    Introduction A. The disciples want to know just when Jesus is going to come again 1. Lets turn to Matthew 24:29 2. Well, we want the answer to that very same question 3. But, you know, Jesus has told us exactly when His return would be Matthew 24:29 (NKJV) "Immediately after the ...read more

     | 6,957 views

    In order to have hope, we must believe in something. It is not something given by man - which is why Jesus said, “Come to me”. Where do you find hope? What do you choose to satisfy you when the chaos of the world invades your life?

    Hope in Christ John 7:25-44 Introduction - The gospel of John screams of the faith that we should have in Christ -- It is the clearest example of living life FOR the one who redeemed you and I - Turmoil today is out of control … -- Many are asking, "Who is in charge?" -- What ...read more

    The Christ Of Christmas

     | 13,585 views

    THE DEPTH OF THE REAL MEANING OF CHRISTMAS IS BEING LOST, AS THE SPIRITUAL AWARENESS OF THE WORLD LESSENS. CHRISTMAS IS NO LONGER BEING CELEBRATED AS THE BIRTH OF CHRIST. THE RESULT IS A LOSS OF HOPE FOR THE WORLD AND THE CHURCH.

    THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS AS I WAS PREPARING FOR MY MESSAGE TODAY I CAME ACROSS THIS STATEMENT. “AS A WHOLE, PEOPLE LOOK FORWARD TO CHRISTMAS WITH MORE ANTICIPATION THAN ANY OTHER SEASON OF THE YEAR.” COMMERCIAL INTERESTS CERTAINLY ANTICIPATE THE COMING CHRISTMAS SEASON.

    This is part one of a series of messages in the Gospel of John.

    INTRODUCTION: John’s gospel is different from the others. There is no genealogy, no manger scene, no boyhood, no temptation, no Mount of transfiguration, and no Gethsemane. There are only a few special miracles chosen by John as “signs.” We have the famous “I AM” sayings of Jesus and many ...read more

    Soldiers Of Christ

    Contributed by John White on May 11, 2017
     | 19,851 views

    One of the most challenging metaphors of the Christian life is presented in this simple passage. Here, as in his letter to the Ephesians, Paul compares Christian life to a soldier called to wage spiritual warfare. (Eph. 6:10-18)

    Soldiers Of Christ II Tim. 2:1-15 The Word of God compares the Christian life to many things. Christians are to be fishermen of men; witnessing and winning souls in the waters of the world in which they live. (Matt. 4:19, Acts 1:8) Christians are also called to be dutiful and diligent farmers; ...read more

    Abiding In Christ

    This sermon reveals what it means to abide in Christ and its importance.

    Abiding in Christ John 15:1-8 This concept of “Abiding in Christ” is one of the most important aspects we can learn. The word itself is a verb. Abiding is therefore an action and means to continue, remain, dwell, live, or to lodge. We can then say that to abide in Christ is to remain ...read more
