    Jesus Gives Rest

    We find true rest from guilt and fear in our Savior’s faithful love

    How tired are you? Recent studies have shown that the average American doesn’t get nearly enough sleep. Employers are concerned about this. As a result, some workplaces are actually encouraging their employees to take brief naps after lunch, so they can be more productive in the late afternoon ...read more

    Just As If I Had Never Sinned

    Contributed by David Lansdown on Jul 8, 2002

     | 28,873 views

    We need to be justified. "Just as if I had never sinned" is what justified basically means – and that is the title I have given to this sermon.

    JUST AS IF I HAD NEVER SINNED Rom 3:9-31 INTRODUCTION Q. What direction does a Polar Bear, in its natural habitat, look when it looks back? Looks to the right? Looks to the left? And when it looks straight ahead? A. In each case it was looking South. It’s on the North Pole! Q. What does a ...read more

    The Shadow Of The Cross Over The Incarnation

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Apr 13, 2001
    based on 74 ratings
     | 4,928 views

    The full significance of the Incarnation is only seen when its dark side is understood - in the Sign of a Sword to Mary’s heart, the Symbol of Myrrh as an offering from the wise men and the Sorrow of Rachael over her dead children.

    If the message of the Incarnation, the coming of Jesus into human experience, had to be condensed into a single sentence it couldn’t be bettered than the words of John: "He came to his own home and his own people received him not" (1:11). In the opening verses of his Gospel, John had already ...read more

    Do you know the power of His resurrection?

    Does the Resurrection Affect You? As is my manner, I will be a bit non-traditional this Easter or as I prefer this Resurrection Day. On many radio and TV stations as well as in the churches, you will hear preachers far more eloquent than I do a guided tour of the Crucifixion detailing and ...read more

    Year C Fourth Sunday of Easter May 6th, 2001 Psalm 23

    Psalm 23 This has been called the “pearl” of the Psalter, one of just about everyone’s favorites. The beauty of its imagery has survived many translations down through the ages. Ironically, it is the translation of a verb in the last verse which makes it difficult to classify this psalm. In verse ...read more

    Sins Atoned; Heaven Gained

    Salvation is found, not by pursuit, but by surrender.

    The ninth chapter of Romans is a perfect chapter from which to preach the Sovereignty of God. Paul has just finished his treatise on justification and grace and the security of the believer in Christ, there in chapter eight, and now we see him slump into sadness over the plight of his own, ...read more

    Chasing Chariots

    As Phillip witnessed to the eunuch we would do well to chase chariots and share our faith by every possible means.

    Chasing Chariots Acts 8:26-39 Introduction A few days ago I received this true account over the Internet. A young man had just left his Wednesday evening Bible study. Sitting in his car he prayed, "Lord, we studied tonight about your speaking to Samuel. Do you still speak to people today? ...read more

    Jesus Is No Turkey

     | 4,210 views

    For Christ the King Sunday: This message contrasts the one-time celebrations to which we "invite" the turkey to the full-time, all-seasons lordship of Jesus.

    After Thanksgiving dinner, the men in the house retired to the family room to share in that most sacred of spiritual rituals – we worshipped at the shrine of the great god football. And it was not long before someone scored a touchdown and went into a liturgical dance in the end zone: high fives, ...read more

    Christmas Without Christ Is Meaningless

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Dec 6, 2000
    based on 117 ratings
     | 13,911 views

    Christmas without Christ is a contradiction in terms but the antidote is to hear the Word of the Angel and the Worship of the Heavenly Choir, to follow the Witness of the hepherds and ponder the Wonder of Mary.

    Many of us have had more Christmases than we care to remember! We half dread it’s coming because of the superficial spirit brought on by the build up of publicity to enter into the spirit of the festive season. The business world, it has to be said, with an eye on the cash till, seizes upon the ...read more

    A Love Story That Went Wrong Series

    Hosea’s painful relationship is a parable of God’s love-relationship with mankind - Love Revealed, Love Rebuffed and Love Restored

    Someone said that the story of Hosea is a "love story that went wrong". When that happens there’s suffering. Hosea’s prophecy is a cry from the heart of God, "What shall I do with you, O Ephraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? Your love is like a morning cloud, like the dew that goes early ...read more

    Smyrna: 2nd Church Of Revelation

    Contributed by Ed Mcneely on Aug 7, 2002
    based on 7 ratings
     | 4,441 views

    This is the martyred church. Jesus had no condemnation only encouragement for the suffering they would experience. Many still suffered in and for their faith. Christ is still with us.

    THE 2ND CHURCH OF REVELATION: Smyrna 3-3-02 Revelation 2:8-11 The first letter was to Ephesus … representing Apostolic Church – the church from Pentecost until about 110 a.d. If you recalled … Jesus commended that church highly … but warned it about drifting away from its first love: · The love of ...read more

    Part 6 of a series on the life of David. Preached on Pentecost Sunday

    As a child my wife and her sister would often accompany their grandmother on outings to cemeteries since their grandmother did a lot of research in the area of genealogy. They would take a picnic lunch and pick out a cemetery to go and walk through and spend hours there. I can think of many places ...read more

     | 2,694 views

    Not everyone is called to the mud-in-the-eye ministry, but if you are then you’ll be a miserable failure trying to do anything else. John 9 offers us an opportunity to spend time with Jesus in the school of ministry.

    TITLE: With Christ In The School of Ministry TEXT: John 9 SCRIBE: Louis Bartet DATE: 6/13/04 PLACE: Point Assembly of God The disciples must have been feeling overly spiritual that day, for as they passed the blind beggar they offered Jesus an observation framed in the form of a question: ...read more
