    New Birth - A Passport To Heaven!

    Contributed by Reggie Corfield on May 13, 2024
     | 1,478 views

    Never compromise for cheap Christianity that takes you close but not far enough to inherit eternal life. Many good people like Nicodemus are so caught up with religion that they lose sight of eternity.

    A little girl had been attending Church for a while. One day, she asked her mother “Where did people come from?” Her mother answered “God made Adam and Eve and they had children and that is how all of us came.” A couple of days later she asked her father the same question. The father said “This is ...read more

    Come And See

    When it comes time to telling others about Jesus, we need to refrain from sharing our thoughts, our views and our religion. We just need to tell them to "Come and See"

    Come and See John 1:44-46 How many of you like first hand experiences? You have to check things out for yourself… Others can tell you about it but you want to see it yourself. What about when you experience something exciting: You want to tell others about it. Movies – “Have you seen ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 3,350 views

    PREMISE: True religion is not about a system of though (philosophy, theology, organization), it is about a person named Jesus. POINT: Jesus asked us to REMEMBER because we tend to FORGET... this was Jesus’ “dying request.”

    Why Is Jesus The Only Way To Get To God?

    Contributed by Monte Brown on Feb 2, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,082 views

    People are constantly asking, “What’s so special about Jesus?” Why is He the only way that someone can know God? In all of religion there is no one question asked more than this one.

    People are constantly asking, “What’s so special about Jesus?” Why is He the only way that someone can know God? In all of religion there is no one question asked more than this one.

    God redeemed us from man made religion with a perfect sacrifice, Christ, the eternal anointed one. Through grace, he gives faith and because of this we can rejoice in hope, of the glory of God.

    Tonight at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT, The Discovery Channel will show The Lost Tomb of Jesus.

    Hypocrisy

    Contributed by Lou Nicholes on Nov 19, 2004
    based on 7 ratings
     | 3,156 views

    It seems that this passage describes God’s indictment of all hypocrites, regardless of race or religion, culture or creed. Both Jews and Gentiles are included in this discussion, but the Gentile often appears in a better light than the Jew.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: Despite the mind-numbing brutality of the Joseph Stalin regime in the Soviet Union, his propaganda machine did its job well. Many Russians hailed him as a hero and a savior, including a young school girl who was chosen on one occasion to greet Stalin. Years later, this ...read more

    Theology Of The Cross

    The problem in our society is that we have become a people who focus upon the Theology of Glory—a casual in vogue religion that demands nothing and promises everything—instead of a society that lives the Theology of the Cross.

    Sermon for Matthew 10:24-39 June 22nd 2008 This past week I had the wonderful opportunity to spend time with seven of our confirmation kids at Lutheran Hills.

    Ritualism Versus Spiritual Reality Series

    based on 8 ratings
     | 12,357 views

    God desires to curb the trend toward formalism in religion which is satisfied with meeting external observation. To obey the moral precepts & principles of the word is infinitely more important than ceremonies & man-made traditions.

    ZECHARIAH 7: 1-7 RITUALISM VERSUS SPIRITUAL REALITY [Ezra 6:1-11] The seventh and eighth chapters are the third distinct division of the prophecy. In the first portion was the call to national repentance and turning to the Lord for His Covenant blessings. After a national turning to God ...read more

    · With all the religions from Buddhism to Islam to Christianity our world it seems is covered in a cloud of confusion, and even when a person finds the truth of Christianity... knowing and understanding that it is Christ... and Christ alone in which salva

    What Must I Do To Be Saved Listen as I read today’s text: Acts 16:16-33 And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying: 17The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, “These men ...read more

    Have you ever felt like a spiritual hypocrite? Good news… Jesus understands… and he came not to condemn us… but to call us out… from outward religion to real life and relationship with God.

    Breakthrough Spirituality Brad Bailey – February 25, 2007 (Much of the ‘commentary’ notes used in prep for this message are from or adapted from Don Williams, KingdomRain website study on Gospel of Mark Such commentary was never read but merely serves as ideas that were drawn on and ...read more

    I Love The Lord Because...

    based on 5 ratings
     | 31,661 views

    Christianity is not a “What’s in it for me?” religion. The Bible views thanks-giving as the sincere overflow of gratitude for all that God has given to us. Thanks-giving is not self-centered; it’s God-centered.

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK Text: Psalm 116:1-18; 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 ILL. “What can I do for you, Madam?” Abraham Lincoln asked an elderly lady who had been ushered into his office.

    Are You Religious? (Part Two)

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 16, 2017
     | 5,617 views

    In the beginning of James 1:27, James highlights that part of pure religion in the eyes of God is looking after orphans and widows in their distress. Let's take a look at why this would be an indicator of being truly religious.

    ARE YOU RELIGIOUS? (part two) Recap: James 1:26, "If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless." We looked at chapter three and realized why James highlighted the tongue-because it's the hardest to tame. ...read more

     | 9,017 views

    Today Jews are looking to the time when God will be worshiped by Israel once again and Jerusalem will be the center of that worship. But just as in the days of Amos a false religion will replace the true worship. Saints that time is fast approaching

    Message: Today we look at a farmer who stands on the Word of God and who takes on a King who has replaced the word of God with a lie. It is really a David and Goliath kind of story but this farmer never throws a stone he just uses God’s word to cut this king down to size. This farmer goes to ...read more

     | 19,955 views

    This was our Lords last public message. It is a scathing denunciation of false religion that paraded itself under the guise of truth. Some of the common people no doubt were shocked at his words, for they considered the Pharisees righteous.
