    based on 68 ratings

    Some people try to ignore the devil, hoping that if they refuse to acknowledge him he won’t acknowledge them. Hoping that if they ignore him he’ll just go away. That doesn’t help! That doesn’t work because that is a plan hatched by an imperfect being that

     | 14,231 views

    It is not that the religious leaders did not know who Jesus was, but that they would not accept his authority. We are in the sinful state that we are in today, not because we do not know that God exists, but because we have refused to acknowledge h

    A Study of the Book of Luke Sermon # 55 By Who’s Authority? Luke 19:45-48, 20:1-18 Over the last week or so we have seen pictures of thousands of Shiite Moslems as pilgrims in Iraq as demonstration of their religious devotion. A ...read more

    Leaving The Boat To Get Aboard

    Contributed by Joshua Bowers on Dec 18, 2005
    based on 5 ratings
     | 2,520 views

    So often we either sit like a knot on a log and refuse to seek God’s purpose for our lives or we do seek God’s purpose and realize just how difficult it can be to fulfill it.

    Leaving the boat to get on board. A. John the Baptist had just been beheaded by King Herod. Because of the rat race that was going on Jesus got his disciples in a boat and headed away for a little R and R. The crowds noticed Jesus and his disciples heading away from town, across the lake, so ...read more

    Wrath Is Revealed Series

    Contributed by Bruce Willis on Sep 24, 2007
    based on 14 ratings
     | 6,237 views

    This sermon seeks to communicate the truth that all persons are responsible to acknowledge and know God and to refuse to do so leaves one subject to the wrath of God being revealed in their life rather than receiving the righteousness that comes from God

    Paul has made his point that he is proud of the gospel because it is the power of God for salvation. It provides deliverance from the penalty of sin (death) and freedom from sin’s power over us now (it no longer masters us). For in the gospel he points out that a righteousness from God is ...read more

    The Other Cup Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 28, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,497 views

    Which cup have you chosen to drink from? The love of God, poured out in Jesus Christ, is complete, unlimited and unmixed; the wrath of God is simply what’s left over when his love is refused.

    One of the things that still divides our denomination is the matter of “inclusive language.” It’s a difference that lines up pretty much the same way as all the other hot-button issues, with theological liberals on one side and theological conservatives on the other. But there ...read more

    Sermon 10 in the Series. (Ezra chapter 5) After the locals first attempted to stop the work on the Temple, they then tried to compromise the work on the Temple. "Let us build with you" was their cry. When Jerubabbel and Jeshua refused, they harrassed them

    These three young men stood up for God, and so were used in amazing ways to impact the greatest king who ever lived. They refused to do what was convenient and safe and rather entrusted themselves to God in the face of death.

    Would You Ask Jesus To Leave?

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jun 23, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,984 views

    When we cling to and refuse to forsake sin, habits, and less than admirable behavior, we are asking Jesus to leave us. Jesus wants to "cast out" those behaviors in our life if we'll let him.

    If you are familiar with “The Andy Griffith” show, you may remember the loveable character named Otis. He was well known around town as being “the town drunk.” He was harmless and seemed to be more of a town mascot. However, this was not the case in our story in Luke. ...read more

    Don’t Limit Wisdom To Yourself

     | 2,353 views

    Do not keep wisdom to yourself. If God can retrieve wisdom from the wise, he can also refuse to diffuse it to others. When you receive the secrets of God, they must be communicated to others. Do not keep them to yourself.

    DON’T LIMIT WISDOM TO YOURSELF "Have you heard the counsel of God? Do you limit wisdom to yourself? " (Job 15:8) Do not keep wisdom to yourself. Do you think there is no wisdom besides yours? Have you got and engrossed all knowledge from others and ...read more

    How many call Jesus good but refuse to submit to Him as Lord? Concluding John 5, we see a stern and yet compassionate plea from Jesus to the religious for them to realize how they are living and turn from it.

    God took care of Israel for 40 years, even though Israel refused to enter into the promised land. God stayed with them until they all breathed their last breath, like a mother holding her son as he is dying.

    The lake of fire, the place of eternal punishment, was never intended for humanity. God created the lake of fire for Satan and his fallen angels as their eternal punishment. However, for those who refuse Christ's salvation it will be their final residence.
