    based on 1 rating
     | 8,473 views

    The five-fold ministry resulted from Christ’s ascension to heaven. These gifts were released by Christ during His ascension and are therefore also known as the ascension gifts. The full expression of the ministry of Jesus requires the full 5-fold ministry

    The Ministry Gifts Ephesians 4:7-8 - But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift. Therefore He says: “When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, And gave gifts to men.” Ephesians 4:11-16 - And He Himself gave some to be apostles, ...read more

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 2, 2021
     | 3,421 views

    Paul preached about God’s grace whereas his opponents preached contrary to Paul’s message arguing that the law required circumcision. Why would a prisoner who has been granted freedom want to return to prison?

    FREEDOM AND THE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT Text: Galatians 5:1, 13-26 Galatians 5:1, 13-16:  For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.  …  (13)  For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as ...read more

    We'll all influence over 10,000 people in our lifetimes. Experts say the average lost person requires 16 exposures to Christianity before reaching believing faith. Will you be one of the links in their chain to believe?

    ONE LINK IN THE CHAIN 1 Cor. 3:6 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A preacher died and found himself in line at the Pearly Gates. Ahead of him was a guy who’s dressed in sunglasses, a loud shirt, leather jacket, and jeans. 2. Saint Peter asked the guy, “Who are you, so that I may know whether or not ...read more

    David got his wires crossed. When it came to taking a census, was it a holy spirit or an unholy spirit that “moved” David? Either way, David took responsibility. Four (4) ways to ‘test the spirits”.

    READ FROM - 2 Sam 24:1-10 & 1 Chronicles 21:1-8 I. BOTH TEXTS THE SAME, EXCEPT FOR WHO MOVED DAVID TO TAKE THE CENSUS A. Is It God Who Moved David?

    based on 10 ratings
     | 5,430 views

    To truly understand what is important in life requires one to have a grip on what is important. In our materialistic society, we think a plethora of possessions is important, but Jesus taught his disciples and teaches us differently.

    DISCOVERING YOUR GIFT (PART IX); GET A GRIP (GIFT OF POVERTY) MATTHEW 6:24-34 SOMETIMES YOU DON’T APPRECIATE WHAT YOU HAVE, UNTIL YOU DON’T HAVE WHAT YOU SHOULD HAVE APPRECIATED.

    Things Sometimes Get Messy!

    based on 94 ratings
     | 12,248 views

    Life is hard, unfair, and sometimes just plain messy! It requires sacrifice! This is true even of God, who sent His Son as a Sacrifice -- a lamb -- who would pay the price for the injustice, sinful messiness of humanity.

    Isa 53:1-12 1 Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed? 2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. 3 He was despised and ...read more

    Observations On Obedience

    based on 38 ratings
     | 5,670 views

    God?s requirement of obedience is not something He does to us, but something He does for us. Though today?s world may see living without rules as a dream, it would only result in destruction.

    Observations On Obedience Text: Deut.6: 24 Intro: Obedience is not a topic dealt with too often these days. We hear a lot about options, but not much about obedience. The former term implies no set standard to follow, while the latter implies the existence of some absolutes. The “no ...read more

    Every Christian should have the commitment of a Soldier to the cause of Christ. What does it mean to be a soldier? What 3 things are required of soldiers? And what 3 things can you expect from God as a soldier?

    SOLDIERS 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.

    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,078 views

    Dramatic monologue as if it were from Micah himself, summarizing the entire book around the contrast between practicing ritual in order to avoid judgment vs. living God’s requirements of justice, mercy, and the humble walk.

    [Outside the sanctuary] Justice, O God! Justice! We must have your justice! And righteousness! Without that we are lost! Oh, Lord God, the Temple and the city – what I see there sickens me. That ripe and rotten ritual, those empty gestures, those paid and padded priests! O God, ...read more

    We’re going to look at “The Laws of Revival” that God established for all time. This Law assures us that God is always ready to send revival; He’s just waiting for us to fulfill the requirements.

    THE LAWS OF REVIVAL 2 Chron. 7:14 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1.

    In a marriage relationship each person enters into a covenant with the other. For better or worse, richer or poorer. We commit ourselves to each other and it requires changes in our lives to uphold the covenant made. The same is true with God.

    The God Who Waits Hosea Chapter 3 As we continue our series on the book of Hosea we will continue looking at the tumultuous relationship between Hosea and Gomer. In chapter 2 we witnessed a faithful husband who came to the point where he could no longer provide for his unfaithful wife who refused ...read more
