    Give To God What You Have

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jul 2, 2006
    based on 18 ratings
     | 11,086 views

    When we offer what we have to God – our wealth, our possession, our talents, or time - God blesses us abundantly in return, more than we ask or think.

    Offer what you have to God and you can see God’s blessings. • Simon offered what he has to Jesus; Jesus in return gave him what He can give. • He offered a fishing boat to preach on. Jesus gave him boats filled with fishes. • Jesus rewards him, and bless him with what he really wants – ...read more

    As the season of Advent begins, many people are preparing for Christmas. That’s good, but ...we are primarily being called in this sermon to be alert, to watch, to be awake, preparing for the return of Jesus. So, are YOU awake ?

    I came across a suggested prayer for all preachers this week, and it goes like this: “Lord, fill my mouth with worthwhile stuff and nudge me when I’ve said enough.” Well, here we go! Are you ready? Are you prepared? Put your hands up if you are ready and prepared ... did you get done yesterday ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 1,782 views

    The seven passions of a Revolutionary are defined for us in the book of Acts. These Scriptures are important to us because they describe the very nature of the life of the early church as it began to form immediately after Jesus returned to heaven.

    Are you a Revolutionary? Are you transforming your entire life to emulate that of Jesus Christ’s? Are you transforming your entire perspective to emulate that of Jesus Christ’s? Your spiritual practices? Your attitude? Your character? Your faith? Your relationships? Your behavior? God wants to do ...read more

    Daniel’s vision of the future is amazing. But it is a solemn reminder Jesus is going to return and one day all of those who don’t know Him will be sentenced at the Great White Throne Judgement.

    INTRODUCTION English writer George Orwell is perhaps best known for his work 1984 (written in 1949), in which he introduced the idea that “Big Brother is watching.” It is almost scary to read it today because it seems strangely prophetic of the ability of big government to monitor your phone and ...read more

    The Lukewarm Church

    Contributed by Charles Scott on Aug 2, 2008
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,531 views

    The deceitfulness of riches and the feeling of self-sufficiency are threats to Christian faith and life. Jesus warns against worldliness and the lukewarm attitude of Christians in Laodicea. Christians must return to their first love of Christ to avoid

    Revelation 3__4-22 the Lukewarm Church "Blessed are the Lukewarm." Jesus never said that, but from the lackadaisical attitude of many of his followers, you would think that was one of his beatitudes. That is the attitude of our Western Civilization and cultural Christians. That was the attitude ...read more

    Are we seeking first the Kingdom of God, or are we focused on getting all we can in this life? We find all we need in Christ. Let's freely give, expecting nothing in return.

    Are we selfish or selfless? The next pair of vice and virtue deal with our attitude towards possessions and people. Greed $ In the Movie Wall Street, Gordon Gecko, a ruthless broker, bluntly proposes in a stockholders meeting, “Greed is good.” His code leads him to conclude that ...read more

    As a child I really enjoyed playing hide and go seek. Little did I realize as a child how much this game of hide and seek paralleled the Return - The Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

    As a child I really enjoyed playing... hide and go seek. I loved it ...no matter if ...I was the one hiding ... trying not to get caught, ... or if I was the one seeking; ......who was trying to catch those hiding... unexpectedly. Although I have not played in quite some time, ......I do ...read more

    Cleansing The Temple Series

    As Jesus entered Jerusalem triumphantly, He entered the Temple, considering what He saw. Being displeased with much that was going on, He returned on Monday to set His Father's house in order.

    Cleansing the Temple Mark 11: 15-19 In our last study we discussed Jesus cursing the fig tree as He made His way to Jerusalem. While this was a physical act, it had spiritual implications. Jesus cursed the fig tree as He and the disciples were headed to the Temple on what most agree was Monday ...read more

    Spiritual Light From The Light Of The World

    Contributed by Craig Condon on May 4, 2016
     | 5,045 views

    Jesus shone the light on the need to repent. The same light allows us to take in the Scriptures and feast on the Word. In return, we are to preach repentance and remission of sins in Jesus’ name to all nations.

    This past Sunday I preached and led worship at the United Church in Bridgewater. During the children’s talk I mentioned that Jesus told his disciples that he would be returning to the Father, but that they would receive the Holy Spirit. I compared the Holy Spirit to the batteries in a ...read more
