    Church Expansion In Antioch Series

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jul 31, 2007
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,048 views

    This sermon calls the laity into action. The work is too great for the clergy alone. The laity must get involved, share their stories and watch God do the rest!

    Subject: Church Expansion In Antioch Acts 11:19-21 Introduction: The early Christian Church grew rapidly as the Holy Spirit guided it through conflict, prejudice and crisis. It seems that none of the Jews including Peter really understood that God would bring salvation to the whole world. During ...read more

     | 9,907 views

    A spirit of distrust can rest upon the body of Christ: inside the church, between churches, across a city. This message explores a challenge to trust Joshua experienced.

    Turn to Joshua 22. One chapter. One passage. One story. One point to the message. A few practical steps we can take. (Touched on the importance of finding the stories in the midst of dry texts: such as geneologies, territory boundaries, etc. For example, Joshua 22.) - Narrated/Story Told ...read more

    The lost responded and those of His people that recognized His favor led them into the Kingdom. The rest sit on the side lines to watch the show or criticize it.

    The Coming Harvest The Great Commission and the harvest scriptures are some of the greatest examples of our goal as the Body of Christ to reach the World for God. Christians almost always try to reach the lost thinking like a Christian or from a Christian perspective ...read more

    God can use each of us in powerful ways, but sometimes all God wants us to do is just show up. He will do the rest.

    Just Show Up The prophet Jeremiah, in chapter 29, verses 11-14 writes, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will ...read more

    At a Christian’s funeral we say they have gone on to heaven. In truth, their heart had already been there for years, and the rest of their person is now rejoining their heart!

    In the Heavenlies Ephesians 1:3 http://gbcdecatur.org/sermons/130123.mp3 v. 3 is the key verse of this book. It is summarized in three words: "all spiritual blessings". Then vv. 4-14 give the detail of what ’all’ means. We are rich and famous in things that really matter. Rich as joint heirs ...read more

     | 3,078 views

    “OUR ABILITY AND DESIRE TO VIEW OUR GOD, OURSELVES AND OTHERS DIFFERENTLY RESTS ON OUR ABILITY TO EMBRACE OUR PERSONAL ENCOUNTER WITH CHRIST.”

    THE DIFFERENCE CONVERSION SHOULD MAKE 2 CORINTHIANS 5:16-20 SO FROM NOW ON WE REGARD NO ONE FROM A WORLDLY POINT OF VIEW. THOUGH WE ONCE REGARDED CHRIST IN THIS WAY, WE DO SO NO LONGER. 17 THEREFORE, IF ANYONE IS IN CHRIST, HE IS A NEW CREATION; THE OLD HAS GONE, THE NEW HAS COME! 18 ALL THIS IS ...read more

    It’s the peacemakers that will be called the Children of God. And we can have rest in the fact that God will take care of judgment, if we will take care of love.

    CHAPTER 13 v. 1 and I saw a beast rising from the sea having ten horns and seven heads and on its horns ten crowns and on its heads names of blasphemy. v. 2 and the beast I saw was like a leopard, and its feet were like a bear’s, and its mouth was like a lion’s, and the dragon gave it its ...read more

    The Memorial That Disappeared Series

     | 5,488 views

    The story of Elijah and the prophets of Baal is a classic. What we sometimes forget is that a memorial, an altar to the LORD, was already there before Elijah came! The rest of the story is gripping!

    Introduction: The days of Elijah were some of the best and some of the worst in Israel’s history. One of the highest points took place when God responded to Elijah’s prayer in a way that nobody could deny. Not only did this take place in the presence of pagan prophets, the event also took place ...read more

    The time in-between sowing and harvest can be discouraging, but the law of the harvest works. We can rest confident that God will finish what he began.

    It's Growing In Secret Introduction This past Friday as Josh and I walked around in our backyard we looked at the various plants along the fence line. We do not spend a lot of time out there and Mike does a great job maintaining everything. We noticed something that we had not noticed before. ...read more

    The earliest promises of God (the covenant) establish the idea of a nation of priests to whom God will reside with so that the rest of the nations (world) will come to know Him.

    If you have been in church at all in your life then you have heard someone say to know God and his will for your life you need to read your bible regularly. I’ve heard it, said it and even suggested memorizing parts of scripture. However, the truth is many people rarely open “THE BOOK” to discover ...read more

     | 4,238 views

    The Power we need to fulfil the Purpose of God for our lives in our generation rests solely on having, maintaining and retaining the Character of God in our lives.

    God's strategy to defeat the enemies and fulfill His plan through man is character. The character of a man is God's strategy. That's why the matter of character is so important to God. When you check the method of God from the Garden of Eden, the only thing He tied the fulfilment of ...read more
