     | 7,343 views

    There is only one power at work in the last week of Jesus’ life - not Pilate’s, not the religious leaders’ - but the power of His love for the world. This power kept Him silent and drove Him to the cross.

    John 15:9-13 9 "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. ...read more

    The answer to the really big question, about how to receive eternal life, is answered in just one word: love. The people we are to love are those in need whose paths we cross.

    Men And Their Macho Machines

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 4, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,892 views

    Men have sadly learned to use machines as status symbols and instruments of power, but that only leads to destruction. Learn from Him whose ride was a lowly beast and whose symbol is a cross.

    I had been away from home for about three months, working in Akron, Ohio, as an engineering student. The three months were over, and it was time to go back home.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,234 views

    According to the Bible, the Good News of Jesus Christ is powerful and is never to be communicated in word only. The testimony of the Cross of Christ is to be made effective not only by proclamation but also in demonstration of the power of the Holy Ghost.

    Rom 15:18-19 I dare not boast of anything else. I have brought the Gentiles to God by my message and by the way I lived before them. 19 I have won them over by the miracles done through me as signs from God--all by the power of God’s Spirit. In this way, I have fully presented the Good News of ...read more

    The purpose of this message is to help Christians count the cost of proclaiming the gospel and encourage us by knowing God will make us bold if we step out in faith and proclaim the wonderful message of the cross.

    Anzac Day/Memorial Day

    Contributed by Noel Atkinson on Apr 26, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 20,214 views

    This sermon looks at the sacrifices soldiers make on behalf of others. This is the same sacrifice Jesus makes for us on the cross. We have been bought with a high price and should enjoy our lives.

    ANZAC Day For those who do not know, ANZAC day is not the day to celebrate Australia’s victories, nor do we celebrate how great our country is. Rather we celebrate the sacrifice and loss of the young men and women who protect other people’s freedom. Australia has never been seriously ...read more

    No amount works, service, goodness, or moral competence will come to the aid of man’s defense before God. Only by placing your faith in the finished work of the cross can you be saved.

    Preparing Jesus, Preparing For Jesus Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Mar 3, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,633 views

    This chapter provides some real contrasts between real and trumped up worship, real belief and real betrayal. It is all a part of preparing Jesus for the cross and preparing us to receive him.

    John places Jesus at Ephraim, a village north of Jerusalem. Between the end of chapter 11 and here, Jesus travels back to Galilee, heals the ten lepers (Luke 17), talks to Zacchaeus (Luke 19) in Jericho on his way back to Bethany.

    The Last Sermon

     | 7,371 views

    In His last sermon before the Cross, Jesus affirms His union with the Father, along with a message of hope for tomorrow and light for our darkness. He also states the position of believers and unbelievers.

    If somehow I knew my next sermon would be my last, what would I preach? Our Lord’s time on earth was drawing to a close, and so He delivered a final sermon, an appeal to people to embrace His light. One translation introduces His message: “And Jesus cried aloud” (Moffat). ...read more
