    How To Know God

    Contributed by Greg Smart on Nov 11, 2002
    based on 20 ratings
     | 2,856 views

    Many different ideas about God. From the atheist who believes there is no God. To the religious pharisee who would believe you’d go to hell if you don’t live a perfect life.

    HOW TO KNOW GOD The fool has said in his heart there is no God. Ps 14:1. Many people today have their own ideas about God. Atheist, no God. Many people think of God as granddaddy, sit up on my lap and everthing will be alright. Religious, everything from God don’t care what we do just as long as ...read more

    The Pressures Off Series

    2000 years ago a religious guy met Jesus and was told he was headed down the wrong road and needed to make a u-turn that led to a life where the pressure is off and was never the same again.

    The Pressures Off Never The Same Again (8) I hope you are getting pumped up about taking the One Month To Live Challenge. NEXT WEEK – we will kick off the series with an Easter Message. AND THEN – things will really start to rock and roll the week of March 30th when we launch our One Month ...read more

    Party On! Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 31, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,706 views

    We all know that there were parties last evening, some that lasted well into the morning hours. But I venture to say that these parties were not celebrations of religious faith, such as the ones implied by today’s Scriptures.

    Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God Party On! Today’s Scriptures are so brief that if our minds are not focused, we might not remember any of them. I’ve wondered if that was an act of mercy on the part of those who back in the 1960's put together the three-year cycle of readings, and saw New ...read more

    Never Surrender Your Authenticity

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Apr 6, 2020
     | 2,141 views

    Jesus says let "yes" be yes and "no" be no. Righteousness must exceed the Pharisees. They surrendered their authenticity to appear more religious. This sermon is an encouragement to live in the opposite manner.

    Never Surrender Your Authenticity Counterfeiters make over a billion dollars a year, making fake designer clothes and handbags. That billion is from the United States, not the rest of the world. These are not cheap knock offs from street vendors; they are well-made fakes. There's an ...read more

    Can You Be Threatened?

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Feb 4, 2018
    based on 2 ratings
     | 10,277 views

    Many in the Body of Christ are living in compromise. They are allowing the world to dictate what they will and will not believe about the Bible. How does this happen? Peter and John's confrontation with the religious leaders in Acts 4 shows us how.

    I was thinking about Bro. Alain’s message this morning and what saddens me so much is how much of the Body of Christ is living in compromise and we don’t even realize it. And I thought about a Republican senator here in Ohio who came out strong and hard against homosexuality. He came out strong and ...read more

    Fulfillment Of 69 Weeks (4 Of 6) Series

    Contributed by Eddie Snipes on Sep 2, 2002
    based on 54 ratings
     | 5,003 views

    All religious books claim to be the word of God, but prophecy sets the Bible apart as having God’s seal of authentication. This section looks at the exact fulfillment of Daniel’s prophecy from the decree to the Messiah.

    (Part 4 of 6) According to the angel of God, once the decree to rebuild Jerusalem went forth, God’s people would know for certain that the Messiah would be in Israel in 483 years. This is a fascinating prophecy that opens up scripture and indisputably points to Jesus Christ as the Messiah. God told ...read more

    Examines the differences between people who fail and people who make a difference.

    GOD BELIEVES IN YOU This past Thursday I performed the funeral for the 5 month old grandson of a friend of mine from the sheriff’s office. It was an especially sad day. Friends, and family were heart broken. Wanting to do everything we could to help, Gladys brought one of the 4-H ...read more

    God Honors A Contrite Spirit

    Contributed by Val Black on Jul 14, 2006
    based on 11 ratings
     | 6,472 views

    The Lord honors a contrite (broken) spirit more than a "religious" one. Often times traditons & doctrines of men appeal to the flesh but God is searching for a broken spirit to love, honor by His Presence and to renew.

    God Honors A Contrite Spirit Luke 7:36-49 Wed. Evening – July 12, 2006 I. Luke 7:36 (KJV) And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to meat (or food). The word “desired” isn’t used in other translations. Most of them say ...read more

    Rejecting Jesus Or Handling Him With Care

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Apr 12, 2022
     | 2,493 views

    Experiencing rejection is a normal part of life. It happens to all of us. How could a single Palm Sunday Celebration cause the religious leaders to be jealous, and envious of Jesus? What causes men to reject him?

    Sermon: Rejecting Jesus Instead of Handling Him with Care Scripture: Luke 20:9-20 “Now Jesus turned to the people again and told them this story: “A man planted a vineyard, leased it to tenant farmers, and moved to another country to live for several years. 10 At the time of the grape harvest, he ...read more

    The Lord is looking for people serious about making an impact on people’s lives. He is also looking for people with integrity.

    The Personification Of Truth Vs. The Pettiness Of Skepticism

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 24, 2022
     | 1,212 views

    The drama of redemption continued as the Lord Jesus, having faced an illegal trial by the religious authorities of Israel, now faced the representative of political authority in Israel, Pontius Pilate, and the conversation he had with the true Authority.

    John 18:28-40 records the probable final conversation that the Lord Jesus has with another person before he was led off to be crucified. He had a dialogue with the Roman governor of the Judean province, Pontius Pilate, and we also see that these two men had opposing agendas. Pilate comes across ...read more

    Who Is My Neighbor?

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jul 10, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,543 views

    It's easy to get along with people who get along with us, but what about when we see someone very different from us in need? Jesus challenges us to be a good neighbor to everyone we encounter.

    Luke 10:25-37 Who is My Neighbor? Have you ever struggled to be nice to someone, especially someone different from you? Maybe they’re talkative and you’re quiet, or they are a gossip and you detest gossip, or maybe their skin is darker and yours is lighter, or yours is darker and ...read more

    Your Miracle At Christmas

    Contributed by Bob Briggs on Dec 23, 2001
    based on 26 ratings
     | 6,349 views

    What is it that causes some people to gain and some people to lose their hope for a miracle?

    Christmas means different things to different people. For some its shopping, parties, celebrations, gifts wrapped under the tree. To others its Santa and his elf’s, stockings hung by the fireplace and the hope of snow. There are those who know and observe the reason for the season, Jesus Christ, ...read more

    Empires In Collision: Christ And Caesar

    Contributed by Michael Bird on May 11, 2003
    based on 57 ratings
     | 11,427 views

    This sermon sets out to examine Mk 12:13-17 not in terms on Church-State relationships but rather by illucidating its socio-religious context and its application for God’s image bearers today.

    EMPIRES IN COLLISION: CHRIST AND CAESAR Mark 12:13-17 13 And they sent to him some of the Pharisees and some of the Herodians, to trap him in his talk. 14 And they came and said to him, “Teacher, we know that you are true and do not care about anyone’s opinion. For you are not swayed by ...read more

    Consecrated For Divine Purpose Romans 12:1-2 Series

    Contributed by Dean Courtier on May 9, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,476 views

    The call to consecration is not merely a religious act but a transformational process where we yield ourselves completely to God. Let us explore this theme through Scripture, exegesis, and the insights of renowned Christian authors and preachers.

    Consecrated for Divine Purpose Romans 12:1-2 Introduction: Today, we embark on a journey of understanding and renewal as we delve into the concept of consecration—a season of setting ourselves apart for God's divine purpose. The call to consecration is not merely a religious act but a ...read more
