    Contributed by Allan Quak on Dec 19, 2020
     | 5,092 views

    Zechariah’s Song challenges us to expect God to work even in the middle of our present difficult circumstances. We do this by looking back at the actions of God, and then looking forward to the promises of God.

    Message Zechariah’s Song Luke 1:57-80 We are working our way through a series which looks at the Advent Songs. Today we are going to have a look at Zechariah’s Song. So that we can be reminded of the context of the song let’s start by reading Luke 1:57-66 (read just verse 57) Hopefully you are ...read more

    Contributed by Obeth Jebakumar on Jan 24, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,777 views

    What does it mean by “The Fear Of The Lord”? It is giving the due respect and honour for the Lord. The fear of the Lord also means the love that we have for Him.

    THE FEAR OF THE LORD INTRODUCTION : What does it mean by “The Fear Of The Lord”? It is giving the due respect and honour for the Lord for who He is and for what He has done for us. The fear of the Lord also means the love that we have for Him. If a person loves the Lord, he will give the due ...read more

    Jesus had compassion on people and healed them.

    Authority over Sickness Mark 1:29-39 As we have traveled through the first chapter of Mark, we have seen many demonstrations of Jesus’ authority. Jesus’ authority over nature is seen when Jesus was driven into the wilderness by the Holy Spirit and lived with the wild beasts. The Judaean wilderness ...read more

     | 7,224 views

    Having spent much time dealing with the end times, Paul shifted his focus mid-way through the closing chapter. He sought to ensure the church developed and maintained a healthy culture in order to remain effective in the midst of trying times.

    The Heart of a Healthy Church 1 Thessalonians 5: 12-15 We are getting close to the conclusion of the first letter Paul wrote to the Thessalonian church. He has covered much with them – seeking to encourage, admonish, and challenge them in their faith. Thessalonica was not a perfect church, but ...read more

    Simon Peter and others were professional fishermen. One day Jesus asked him for a couple of favors, and for Simon Peter, everything changed!

    Based on a sermon preached at Glasgow, MO First Baptist Church on 7-22-2014. This is not an exact transcription. Introduction: When someone gives up on something they love, it’s remarkable. This is even more so when a professional or full-time businessman walks away from the very thing that he ...read more

    Contributed by K. Edward Skidmore on Feb 1, 2020
     | 4,547 views

    After Jesus' arrest he was taken to various Jewish and Roman courts. This message centers on Jesus standing before Pilate the Roman Procurator and deals with text from John 19:1-16.

    Jesus before Pilate John 19:1-16 Intro: On the night of Jesus' arrest he was taken back and forth from various Jewish courts to Roman courts and in between he was mocked by soldiers, and beaten within an inch of his life. All this was done before Jesus was taken to Golgotha to be crucified. ...read more

    Philadelphia: The Church With The Open Door

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 9, 2020
     | 6,355 views

    Like Smyrna, the Lord offered only encouragement for Philadelphia, with no rebuke. They were a people of little strength, and yet they held great potential. Christ promised to open doors no man could close. He reminded them of His preeminence and the security of their future.

    Philadelphia – The Church with the Open Door Revelation 3: 7-13 Philadelphia is the sixth church addressed by Jesus. Like Smyrna, Jesus offered no rebuke, only encouragement for their faithfulness and endurance in the midst of opposition. Jesus knew they were a people of “little strength,” and yet ...read more

    HoHum: The New York City transit company was missing a bus and a driver some years ago. For over a week, authorities searched with no success.

    Timothy (Paul's Disciple) Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 3, 2022
     | 3,537 views

    This young man was so closely associated with the Apostle Paul that they shared his thoughts and work. However, we must assume the more profound knowledge of him conveyed by the Acts and Epistles and by the letters of counsel addressed by St. Paul to him personally.

    Timothy Acts 16:1 Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman… ________________________________________ This young man was so closely associated with the Apostle Paul that they shared his thoughts and work.

    The Proper Attitude In Prayer Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 5, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,533 views

    Prayer is something we are all familiar with, but I wonder if we are familiar enough with prayer? Is it possible that we have become too familiar with prayer? I believe there are instances in our lives where both are true.

    The Proper Attitude in Prayer Matthew 6: 5-8 We have come to the portion of the Sermon on the Mount where Jesus begins to address prayer. The act of praying is literally imploring God to move on our behalf. It is described as words of worship or entreaty that are offered to the Lord. Prayer is ...read more

    "I Found The Answer, I Learned To Pray”

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 8, 2022
     | 3,030 views

    Introduction: Many years ago, the late Nat King Cole sang a song in a way that only he could sing. It was called "I Found the Answer, I Learned to Pray."

    Never has there been a song that had more truth to it than that particular song. From cover to cover, the Bible teaches us the same thing this song teaches us: the answer to life's problems is prayer. Some never learn that lesson because they never read their Bible or attend a church where ...read more

    Following Jesus: But What Happens When I Blow It? Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 21, 2022
     | 1,848 views

    Even a saint like Peter "blew it" when he denied he knew Jesus. Eventually he was restored to a place of service for the Lord. What happens, or what should I do, when I blow it?

    Note: (Edited from a sermon preached in August 2022 at First Baptist Church, Chamois, MO) Introduction: One reality few of us as believers want to admit is that first, we were born sinners. Paul wrote “All have sinned and come short of God’s Glory (Romans 3:23, paraphrased)” and none of us would ...read more

    Sadducees Sadly Mistaken (2004)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Oct 23, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,680 views

    The intention of the question of our "case in point" (Luke 20:27-40) was designed by those who composed it to make a fool of Jesus. It backfired. The scripture tells us that when Jesus answered that question, no one dared to ask Him any other questions.

    SADDUCEES SADLY MISTAKEN Text: Luke 20:27-40 Bruce Larson made the comment that the question that the Sadducees posed to Jesus was a test that was designed to determine whether or not He was a conservative or a liberal.

    Three Crosses On A Hill: A Study In Evangelism

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 6, 2022
     | 1,587 views

    When we preach about the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for our sins upon the cross, we forget that there were also two men crucified on crosses next to Him. Each man had the opportunity to look to Jesus for grace and mercy. Their response determined their eternal destiny.

    The agony of the crucifixion and the final hours of Jesus are recorded in all four gospels, each written with their own unique perspective of what happened that dark day (Matthew 27; Mark 15; Luke 23; John 19). Each one tells of the jeering, mockery, contempt, and seething hatred towards the ...read more
