     | 1,609 views

    If you have recognized yourselves in other people, then Jesus will recognize himself in you.

    I was adjusting the biometric ID on my phone while I was preparing this sermon and started thinking about the things like the algorithms used to identify users’ buying habits and then about how easy it is to access untold quantities of information about you just from plugging your name into your ...read more

    The 7th in a series going through all Christ endured leading up to the Cross. The series ends Easter Sunday with the Glorious Resurrection

    Last week we talked about the fact that Jesus was bound. They tied Him up to keep Him from retaliating. The crowd was afraid of Jesus. That is proven more and more as one reads about the events leading up to the crucifixion. Here Jesus is before Pilate. Pilate has questioned Jesus. He has ...read more

    Unexpected Jesus

    Contributed by Theresa Ratliff on Mar 25, 2013
     | 4,382 views

    Do our expectations of who Jesus should be keep us from seeing who he really is?

    Maybe it’s just me, but there’s something about this story that has always bothered me. How on earth could Mary Magdeline, who has been one of Jesus’s closest friends, look right at him and doesn’t recognize him? Isn’t that like…the president of the George ...read more

    Jesus Is Lord

    This is a message focusing on the lordship of Christ. The emphasis was on helping our people understand the invitation to live and participate in the kingdom, or reign, of God today.

    Jesus is Lord Luke 17:20-36 “And milk.” Every morning for the first six years of my education, those two words signaled the end of the day’s announcements and the impending opportunity for each student in the school to rise for the “Pledge of Allegiance.” Every day was the same.

    To avoide harsh and incorrect judging, recognize your limitations, remember your personal debt to God, and admit your own weakness.

    The Blind Eye Surgeon Matt. 7:1-5 INTRO.: ILLUS.: Back in the days when such surgery was done in hospitals, I was visiting a patient who had cataract surgery. Her surgeon came into the room and bragged that this was his 3,000th cataract surgery. “And just look how clear and pretty that eye is,” he ...read more

    Ties together Israel’s disobedience during the Exodus, people’s failure to recognize Jesus when he came, and our own obliviousness to the warning signs around us. Lesson: Hardships aren’t for punishnment, it’s to point us to God.

    Have any of you ever watched a movie or a TV show about a wagon train? You know, a column of Conestoga wagons, what they called prairie schooners, with the rounded canvas tent-tops? When I was young Westerns were the commonest sort of show, and everyone knew the conventions: The square-jawed ...read more

    Amazing Jesus Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,437 views

    The scribes and the skeptics were amazed at his teaching. The hungry and hurting were amazed by his miracles. An adulterer and her accusers were amazed by his love. And two millennia later, Jesus is no less amazing. But what amazes Jesus?

    Amazing Jesus (2) Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 1/19/2014 The Bible tells us, “On the day when the Lord Jesus comes, all the people who have believed will be amazed at Jesus” (2 Thessalonians 1:10). Amazed at Jesus. Not amazed at angels or mansions or new ...read more

    Many people have different perspectives on "who Jesus is," and so the real question is "who is Jesus." and thats something you need to find out for yourself through your spiritual journey

    Breaking Boundaries 3: Who is Jesus Really? Luke 7:18-35 Feb 1, 2009 Intro: Who is Jesus? H.G.

    Like Judas, let us forsake a casual relationship with Jesus and be more like Mary who developed a close, personal, and intimate relationship with Jesus Christ, the Savior.

    I ran across a book from 1904, entitled, “Maxwell’s Elementary grammar” that contained the following poem: "Oho!" said the pot to the kettle; "You are dirty and ugly and black! Sure no one would think you were metal, except when you're given a crack." "Not so! Not so!" kettle ...read more

    If by birth and by nature we have a lack of light, we don’t understand, don’t recognize, don’t receive the Light, how awesome it is that by simply believing the gospel we receive the light of Jesus Christ.

    John 1:5-9 The four gospels record the earthly life of Jesus Christ, and each one presents a different view of Him. Matthew: King of the Jews, Son of David, Heir of Israel’s throne Mark: Servant of God, the perfect Workman of God – the text in Mark brings out the characteristics of His service ...read more

    Jesus is Lord, Jesus always has been Lord, and always will be.

    Good Morning. Just to set the stage for what I want to share today: In these Sundays after Easter, we have the opportunity to look at some “extra” things about Jesus we don’t always consider. You know, the things other than his birth, death and resurrection. So, did you catch the amazing thing St. ...read more

    Lessons about people in response to the resurrection of Jesus. 1- Some consider Jesus but do not recognize Him 2- Some know scripture but do not believe it

    INTRO.- Response to the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the death is like anything else. We see, we hear, we question, and we consider. And we either believe or we do not. ILL.- It was possibly the most prayed-for event in human history. And it succeeded! On Sunday, July 20, 1969, as ...read more

    2007 For Jesus!

    JESUS! JESUS! JESUS! It’s dark. It’s still. It’s raining softly. It’s the first moments of 2007. It seems like the whole earth is quiet. There is no noise. But if you still your mind and heart you can hear a very small, barely perceptible, almost indistinguishable sound. It’s not heard with the ...read more
