  • God Serves Us Even In Eternity

    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 7, 2010
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,323 views

    We live as those who keep our lamps lighted--our lamp of faith, fueled by the Holy Spirit whom God the Father has sent through His Son.

    Intro Veiled underneath the noise and rancor of the new-year celebrations, a low thrumming makes itself known. It is a thrumming undercurrent of sad acceptance pervading the new-year festivities, a presence of wistfulness and nostalgia--and yes, even of muted sorrow. The year has fled and gone, ...read more

  • Gazing On God In All His Glory

    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 7, 2010
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,198 views

    What it would be like to see God and gaze upon His glory? Just listen to Isaiah’s experience.

    Intro What it would be like to see God and gaze upon His glory? We think it would be an awesome sight, don’t we? Oh, no doubt, it would fill us with awe--so much that fear would seize every corpuscle of our being. But it would not be awesome; it would be awe-full. Main Body Just listen to ...read more

  • Bread Of Life

     | 7,794 views

    Jesus is manna for the wilderness.

    Intro One month in the wilderness and the Israelites are hungry, without food. That wasn’t in the travel brochure when Moses freed us from the Egyptians. Now our feet are tired and our legs weary. Sand and stones irritate in our sandals. Snakes and scorpions infest the ground we walk. ...read more

  • Following In The Apostles' Footsteps

    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 7, 2010
     | 3,097 views

    Living according to the pattern that the Apostles have handed down to us.

    Philippians 3:17: “Join with others in following my example, brothers, and take note of those who live according to the pattern we gave you.” --------------------- As a Lutheran convert, I can only go by what others tell me about what we did as a church body 60 years ago. But I’m ...read more

  • Living Under Two Trees

    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 7, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,719 views

    We live under two trees. The first tree was one by which Satan conquered us. But the second tree was one by which Jesus conquered Satan for us. And because of that we live.

    Intro Satan is patient, stoking the power of evil that he believes is stronger than God. He devises a scheme and becomes one with a snake. And there he waits. He will wait as long it takes to entrap and ensnare. And so he waits. He waits for Eve to walk past the Tree of the Knowledge of Good ...read more

  • Preaching To God's People

    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 7, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,951 views

    Preachers don’t want to ruffle feathers, lest folks fly away, startled, and go to a church down the street. And so we preachers often preach anything but God’s Word. But God uses real preachers, not pale, second-rate imitations.

    Intro Today, the Church finds herself wandering on dangerous terrain, for she no longer wants to listen to her preachers. Even worse, preachers don’t want to preach. They don’t want to ruffle feathers, lest folks fly away, startled, and go to a church down the street. And so we ...read more

  • The Christian In The Voting Booth

    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 7, 2010
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,738 views

    From a Christian worldview, we see voting as a divine gift that allows us to think the way God thinks, to act the way He acts.

    The book of Proverbs says, “Speak for those who have no voice, for the rights of the dispossessed” (Proverbs 31:8). The prophet Zechariah declared, “Dispense true justice, and show gracious love and compassion to each other” (Zechariah 7:9). St. Paul says to “do ...read more

  • The Snake On The Pole

    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 8, 2010
    based on 9 ratings
     | 10,590 views

    Let nothing--nothing!--turn your attention from your snake on the pole--let nothing distract you from your Savior on the cross. Through such seemingly silly ways, God gives to you--not a snake on the pole--but His Son on the cross.

    Introduction That whole snake-on-a-pole thing must have sounded insane to some of the Israelites. Stare at a bronze serpent and you’ll be healed? That sounds ridiculous. It must’ve sounded just silly enough that some Israelites started looking for more reasonable solutions to the ...read more

  • A Virgin Will Conceive

    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 8, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,305 views

    Like Ahaz before us, we don’t want a sign from God--at least a sign that leaves God running the show. What Ahaz did on the outside, we do on the inside. We like things just the way they are, if it leaves us in charge.

    Intro Isaiah’s prophecy of the Virgin giving birth was a sign against King Ahaz. It’s also a sign against us, all fallen humanity. Ahaz was a young Israelite man gone bad. He was of David’s line, but not of David’s faith. And he had become king of the Southern kingdom of Israel, Judah. Ahaz ...read more

  • Bethlehem, O Bethlehem

    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 8, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,871 views

    Nothing can take Christ’s promises away from you, for He was born in the town of Bethlehem to make it so. And no one can take you away from Him, for He seals that promise in His death and His blood.

    Intro Bethlehem, O Bethlehem of old, how small you are. You are small, so insignificant, that few even count you among the towns of Judah. So small and little-known are you that Micah the Prophet must call you Bethlehem of Ephratah, or someone might mistake you for another: Bethlehem of Zebulon. ...read more

  • The Bloodbath Of God

    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 8, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,232 views

    The Lord's Supper is the bloodbath of God. For we have the sure Word from the Son of God: “This is My blood shed for you for the forgiveness of sins.”

    Intro “Bloodbath” is not a word that brings pleasant images to mind. If you were to pull some books off the library shelf, you’d find descriptions like these for the word “bloodbath”: Yes, it was a bloodbath, yes it was annihilation of all the inhabitants, yes it was ...read more

  • Are We Fighting God

    Contributed by Richard White on Aug 9, 2008
     | 4,586 views

    Do our actions show us obedient or fighting God

    Are we fighting GOD? Acts 5: 17-42 This segment reminds us who the enemy really is, the enemy is not flesh and blood, and it is not ideologies or even legalism. The enemy is a spiritual being who manipulates, who twists truths, and uses our ego for his gain. Look around today and see what causes ...read more

    Nehemiah went back to Jerusalem to rebuild the City for GOD, what are we building. Worship must be joyful.

    The Joy of Celebration (outline) The Berlin Wall: The city of Berlin, Germany will be forever famous for its infamous Wall. When the wall was still in existence, you could walk up and down in front of the wall and see shrines dedicated to those that were killed trying to escape from the oppression ...read more

  • I Must What? Series

    Contributed by Richard White on Aug 9, 2008
    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,872 views

    What we must do to be saved has been the subject of debate, what does Jesus say?

    I Must WHAT??? John 3:1-16 This is part one of a series on the subject of being Born Again. John Chapter 3 introduces a man named Nicodemus and highlights an interview between Jesus and Nicodemus. This is much like a private Bible study where one is actually freed to ask any question of the ...read more

  • In Tandem With God: When The Storms Hit Series

    Contributed by Richard Schwedes on Aug 11, 2008
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,910 views

    As disciples of Jesus Christ we often experience storms in our life, this sermon shows how God is present during those storms helping us.

    This week we are continuing our sermon series being tandem with God. As we discussed last week being in tandem, is like being in partnership, cooperating with God. It doesn’t mean it that we are equal with God, but that we work with God. And today we are looking at what it means to be in tandem ...read more
