    based on 1 rating
     | 3,422 views

    To show that God loves the world that is in rebellion against Him and that gratitude to Him ought to be the response to His grace. The application of the Law of God seems to be the only thing that brings some people to see their need of Christ.

    "The Ones Whom God Loves" JOHN 3:16 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." It’s a wonderful truth. It is gospel truth; truth in a nutshell. The Lord says He loves the world. “For God so loved the ...read more

     | 3,806 views

    The purpose of this message is to show that God has already done and paid for what we will need for in this life. Faith is our response to this grace. The best way to respond is by aligning our words and action with His Word.

    Malachi is declaring how bad leadership causes “bad” fellowship. (The priesthood had spoiled and corrupted a nation.) Spiritual leaders must accept the responsibility of the call to live holy lives.

    “When Your Hero Becomes a Zero” Malachi Series Pt. 4 July 7, 2013 Introduction A In Malachi, the first group of offenders God addresses are the priests.

    Paul explained to Timothy the proper role of Christian women as essential to the function of the church. The Christian community must embrace the proper role of godly women. But how is it discovered? Responsibility for Christian women is found in her..

    THE ROLE Of CHRISTIAN WOMEN—1Timothy 2:9-15 This sermon was very well received. One woman commented that I was ‘ballsy’ for preaching this. She also stated that her mother(were she a church-goer) would not have stood for it. Attention: Movie/Broadway presentation—requires that each ...read more

     | 1,746 views

    God has made it abundantly clear to mankind that we are responsible for our own sins and will have to give account to Him for our actions. We need to stop blaming others for what we do.

    Ezekiel 18 PREDISPOSED TO SIN AND OPPOSED TO ACCOUNTABILITY That pretty much sums up what the focus on today’s message is. But, so no one feels cheated out of a sermon from The Word of God, I will go ahead and preach. Predisposed is defined as something or someone making someone else liable or ...read more

    God desires for true repentance, and will do whatever is necessary to remove the sin. As we continue to watch the enemy slowly creep into our churches and homes, we have a responsibility to warn the church of the dangers of the enemy.

    Ezekiel 33:23-26 Heavenly Father. We seek you today with a desire that you would show us the truth of your words. We seek you for the fulfillment of your promises.

    When we are asked to do something we don't want to do, our response is usually, "Why Me?" This is a short homily for a Sunday service following the choir cantata.

    Why Me? Luke 1: 26 - 38 Intro: Have you ever been asked to do something and you ask the person, “How am I going to do that?” Maybe you’ve been chosen to do something and you ask, “WHY ME?

    There was a post for a video by Jewish folks saying Jesus/Yeshua was a false prophet because He led people away from the true God. Here is my response. I suspect they will delete it from their link.

     | 7,666 views

    Our response to criticism by the world is to withdraw into our Christian subculture: Christian radio, colleges, books, TV, church, etc. Jesus tells us we must be the Salt of the Earth. What does that mean?

    OUT OF THE SALT SHAKER & INTO THE WORLD! Matt. 5:13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: QUITTING 1. A man was shoveling snow from his driveway when two boys carrying snow shovels approached him. 2. “Shovel your snow, Mister?” one of them asked. “Only two dollars!” 3. Puzzled, the man ...read more
