    Holiness

    Contributed by Stephan Brown on Mar 11, 2002
    based on 276 ratings
     | 51,099 views

    Explains that holiness is more than righteous actions, but is being specially set apart as the Temple of God and for the purpose of sharing the Good News. Also shows that the means of attaining holiness is the empowerment of the Holy Spirit of God.

    “Holiness” As someone who has grown up Pentecostal, I am very familiar with the term “holiness.” I’ve heard sermons on holiness from before the time I could even say the word. And I hear all kinds of people quoting “Be holy as I am holy” After all, several times God did say that to his people. And ...read more

    The Psalm Of The Two Ways

    Contributed by Howard Mcglamery on Jan 30, 2003
    based on 196 ratings
     | 13,386 views

    How can we be sure to establish a God-centered life rather than an ungodly life. Psalm 1 is a description of the wicked and the righteous. It describes both the God-centered life and the self-centered life.

    The Psalm Of The Two Ways Psalm 1 I claim little originality for this sermon. Much of this came from a commentary by the late Ray Stedman. Psalm 1 1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the ...read more

     | 17,151 views

    The incentive of future blessings is held out to the present as reason for repenting and living a heart-emanating kind, compassionate and righteous life. So here we have the assurance of full kingdom blessing for Zion and Jerusalem.

    ZECHARIAH 8:1-8 "THE CITY OF TRUTH" The remnant people have been told what disobedience to the Word of God had brought to pre-exiled Israel and what it would bring to them in chapter seven. In chapter eight they are told the glorious blessings of what repentance and obedience to the Word of ...read more

    Mirrors Of Mercy

    Contributed by Bill Sullivan on Mar 9, 2009
     | 4,169 views

    When we grow weary of our sin-sick world, and maybe even of sinners, we must remember that Jesus urged us to be mirrors of His mercy, and He came to call sinners, not the "righteous"

    Mirrors of Mercy TCF Sermon March 1, 2009 We hear every day about sin and sinners at work in the world around us. We see it on the news. We see sin at work in our neighborhoods. We see it in our workplace. We see it in the marketplace, whether that’s the mall, the restaurants we frequent, or ...read more

    Will The Real Jesus Please Stand Up Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jul 5, 2010
     | 4,654 views

    Jesus was not just a great teacher and healer. He’s the risen Lord and Saviour, the Son of God who died and rose so we could be made righteous in God’s sight.

    One of the comments you often hear from non-Christians is that they quite like Jesus but they’re not so keen on God. Jesus is all loving, sacrificing, etc, while God seems so judgmental, so angry. People are happy to have a saviour. They’re happy to have someone who always forgives; ...read more

    We have the glorious privilege to choose our words. This privilege is one of the main reasons we are to gain wisdom. The righteous speak wise words. Thus they are fitting or appropriate & give life to people & situations.

    PROVERBS 10: 11-14, 18-21, 31-32 THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK These verses address the subject of talking. Speech is one of the most distinguishing gifts of man.

    Valued Words Series

    based on 8 ratings
     | 7,344 views

    It takes a change of heart as well as a change of mind that we might speak righteously. Yet the difficult task of refining our speaking process is worth the effort, for the righteous use valued words that bring blessings

    THE WORDS OF THE RIGHTEOUS VALUED WORDS PROVERBS 10: 31-32 Words spring from the heart and are then formed by the mind. If the heart is pure, righteous speech should flow out of it. If the heart is wicked it also flows from the mouth. Yet even if the heart is pure it is not a given that ...read more

    based on 45 ratings
     | 44,525 views

    Notice the simple responses our Lord noted in the actions of the righteous. Giving someone a drink of cold water, something to eat, clothes to wear a visit. These are simple and basic acts of kindness. No pomp, no plaque, no prestige.

    Living Thankful

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Nov 5, 2015
     | 4,633 views

    We should be thankful because when we are in Jesus, we are presented to a just and righteous God without blemish. Paul reminds the church of Corinth (and us as well) that living for Christ is a matter of thankfulness.

    Living Thankful 1 Corinthians 1:4-9 Introduction - This evening, we are going to take a short break from our normal pattern - Thankfulness is a calling that each of us has for one purpose: To remember -- In the good times and the bad, God calls us to live lives of thankfulness -- To remember ...read more

    Jesus submits to the Father in baptism, although as John pointed out, he had no need to be baptized (he was without sin). However, Jesus is righteous by doing what is "right" and sets the example and standard for us.

    Jesus’ Last Sermon Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 21, 2018
     | 19,759 views

    This was our Lords last public message. It is a scathing denunciation of false religion that paraded itself under the guise of truth. Some of the common people no doubt were shocked at his words, for they considered the Pharisees righteous.

    Suffering for righteous sake has a long tradition, Jeremiah, Amos, Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, Jesus, Steven, Paul, Silas and Peter. Don't be surprised when you are suffering for Christ.

    Are you surprised when you see religious programming on television and you hear someone say that if you have enough faith you will have health, wealth and prosperity?
