    Contemporary Christians tend to be complacent about the return of Christ. Will we be ready for His return?

    Luke 12: 32 – 40 – Ready! Intro: Have you ever been caught sleeping in church? . . . I’m going to give you 10 good excuses to use the next time you are caught sleeping in church: 1) They told me at the blood bank this might happen. 2) I was just taking a power nap. 3) It must ...read more

    Dare To Hope

    There are no hopeless situations. Jesus asks us to trust and to keep praying. If we don't give up, miracles can happen in our lives.

    Last week I went to visit an elderly nun in her retirement residence. She was very happy to meet me and we spent some time chatting. While looking around in her room, I noticed a small table in a corner of the room and three small statues facing the corner. One looked like the statue of our ...read more

    The Four Aspects Of Balanced Maturity

    Contributed by Rodelio Mallari on Nov 10, 2010
    based on 11 ratings
     | 10,145 views

    This beautiful balanced growth of Jesus is the pattern for our own growth and maturity so that we will fulfill God’s plans and purposes for our life.

    Intro: From His birth until age twelve, Luke 2:40 tells us that the child Jesus grew both physically and spiritually. He was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon Him. Our main text Luke 2:52 also says that Jesus kept advancing in the four areas of growth – wisdom, stature (physical), ...read more

    The Unclean Spirit

    The scary truth is, there are only two spirits that controls a man – God’s Holy Spirit or Satan’s unclean spirit. Friend, which spirit is in control over you?

    Intro: One quiet Sabbath day Jesus entered the synagogue at Capernaum to declare His Father’s will. Notice that where the Lord does a good work, there is also the devil seeking to resist it. In our text, Jesus comes face to face with a man with an unclean spirit. It is a day of grace and ...read more

    Washing The Feet Of The Disciples

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 7, 2013
    based on 10 ratings
     | 10,657 views

    This world is not our home,. However, the Lord is not taking His disciples immediately out of this world. Instead, He equips us with a model of love and humility for our continuing sojourn here.

    WASHING THE DISCIPLES’ FEET. John 13:1-17. John concludes his account of Jesus’ public ministry with one last urgent appeal in which our Lord “cried out” (John 12:44) with a vehemence not unlike His cry at the tomb of Lazarus (John 11:43). Jesus does not cease to call the spiritually dead to new ...read more

    Christian Character Of Stephen The Martyr

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 10, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,140 views

    The would-be servant of God, whether waiting at table, ushering at the door, distributing to the poor, or preaching the gospel, must be of a blameless character and reputation.

    THE CHRISTIAN CHARACTER OF STEPHEN THE MARTYR. Acts 6:1-15. It is interesting to commemorate one particular saint who gave his name to a Street, a Road, a Church, and a bench (!) in Norwich, and I dare say in other cities too. Stephen is rightly acknowledged as the first Christian martyr, a ...read more

    Allow Jesus Christ to love you, to carry you safely home, and to welcome you to eternal life with God!

    We worship God not only through songs but also through the listening and learning from the Word of God. The theme for the Holiday Folk Fair is “Celebrating the Culture of the Story”. Many stories are told of course because there is something to learn from them. In God’s Word, ...read more

    The Promise Of Christmas: Salvation Series

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Dec 31, 2012
     | 6,418 views

    During a time of great pressure during Ahaz reign over Judah God promised a sign of deliverance. That sign has its ultimate fulfillment in Jesus Christ. Jesus is the Christmas promise. Immanuel, God with us.

    Intro: God has a promise for every pain, pressure, and problem we face. Ahaz and the southern nation of Judah was in a very pressing situation in this passage. The northern kingdom of Israel ( Ephraim) and the kingdom of Syria (Aram) had formed an alliance to resist Assyria to the northeast. ...read more

    God looks at us as ‘living stones’ but not many of us live up to the expectation of God, do we?

    Mighty Wall! 1 Peter 2:5 “you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” I would like to share an illustration I read somewhere: “There’s a story about a king of ...read more

    Note: Message by Elizabeth Borowski at Andrews Church of God Mother's Day May 12, 2013 Title: Fearfully and Wonderfully Made Text: Isaiah 64:8 Introduction It is amazing how God takes a simple method like making pottery and turns it into a life lesson for ourselves.

    The nimble adroitness needed for sword fighting seemed severely limited by the floppy handles and fat blades filled with air, but at least they were safe. High adventure with ABSOLUTELY NO DANGER.

    Part 17 - Matthew 10:34-42 - GIVE ME MORE THAN A BLOW-UP SWORD! My youngest grandson had a birthday party not too long back. It was a pirate party so all his mates came dressed in pirate gear - eye-patches, head scarves, etc. At the door we presented every pirate with a plastic blow-up sword, ...read more

    Kneeling and standing are the characteristic postures of prayer. Standing is the posture of the victorious Christ in Heaven.

    A Sermonette during our church's Thanksgiving and 20th Anniversary Celebration

    My topic of sharing is on the Present History of RCAC. I struggled with the term “present history”. As we know, the present means now (things that exist now, things that are new) while history means things of the past, things that are old. Almost sounded like an oxymoron. With help ...read more

    Momentum and what stops it

    It has been said that momentum is the great exaggerator. It makes everything look better than it is. On the other hand when we lack momentum obstacles seem greater than they are. The power of momentum: A train going 50 mph 5 foot steel reinforced wall. The same train you can put a 1 inch block in ...read more
