    Good Vibrations - Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Antonio Silveira on Mar 19, 2012

     | 7,120 views

    In order to understand the Spiritual World we need to become like children. Start learning again; overcome offence; and above all things we need the presence of God. We need to put God First and be filled with the Holy Ghost and FIRE!

    I started this message by teaching on how we can "feel" the presence of God. This is something that happens when we receive His Holy Spirit. Being filled or baptized in the Spirit means that we opened ourselves to His presence and when we have full conscience of God's presence we can suddenly ...read more

    Hidden Things

    God hides himself from the arrogant and reveals himself to the humble, childlike people who love him.

    Imagine that you hear the roar of a car engine outside your door. As you look out, you see a red sports convertible, and in it is a young man with flowing hair and mirrored sunglasses. You can see that he is well tanned because he doesn’t have a shirt on — just shorts and flip flops. ...read more

    Strength Through Humility

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Jul 7, 2014
     | 6,785 views

    The world thinks humility is pious weakness, whereas the bible says it is strength through submission, in fact true humility results in power, and honour and glory and majesty and strength. Who would not want that?

    Genesis 24:34-38, 42-49, 58-67 Psalm 45: 11-18 Romans 7:15-25a Matthew 11:16-19, 25-30 “Please join me in my prayer.” Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of our hearts, be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, our strength, and our redeemer. Amen. (Ps. ...read more

    PALM SUNDAY MESSAGE

    Introduction Many preachers are often faced with familiar Bible stories and a familiar audience or congregation. Familiar stories often appear on what many would call special Sundays like Christmas and Easter. I believe Palm Sunday could be seen as a special Sunday by many. On those so called ...read more

    Why didn’t He intervene when I had that car accident, or when my friend died of cancer? How could He let something like that happen?" It’s kind of like this - "JESUS, I PLAYED MY OWN MUSIC. WHY DIDN’T YOU DANCE TO MY TUNE."

    Part 6 - Matthew 11:15-19 - WHY DON’T YOU DANCE TO MY TUNE! Rome, who is only 1 year old, picked up a plastic spade and began playing it, pretending it was a guitar. It has the right shape. Anything can become a guitar in his hands. He has seen guitars at Church and as he danced he made sounds ...read more

    Finding Rest In Uncertainty

     | 7,303 views

    Finding rest & contentment in uncertain times by following the invitation of Jesus to "Come to Me"

    When we look at the first part of our text today we see Jesus talking to the people about living in a world of uncertainty, living a life of restlessness without peace and surety. “We played the flute and you didn’t dance, we played a funeral march and you didn’t weep and cry.” John Lived out in ...read more

    John’s disciples could have been biased against Christ, because of His mounting popularity, and the lessening of their master’s.

    Any excuse will do.

    THE CHILDREN AT PLAY. Matthew 11:16-19. MATTHEW 11:16-17. The children were out in the market place, wanting to play in the streets. ‘Let’s play weddings,’ suggested the girls: but the boys would not. ‘Let’s play funerals,’ countered the boys: but the girls would not.

    Contrary And Condemned

    There are way too many people who miss God’s message for them, and even miss Jesus, as they are focused on finding fault. This behavior resulted in the cities of Chorazin, Bethsaida and Capernaum being rebuked.

    I want to begin our message with a sermon illustration: “All too many Christians today go to church to find fault, to gossip, and to criticize . . . An incident in the life of Joseph Parker, the great British preacher, illustrates this tragic truth. He was preaching at the City Temple in London. ...read more

    Transition And Testimony (Matthew 11:1-30)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 14, 2025
     | 418 views

    Our commentary on Matthew continues with Jesus' testimony about the ministry of John the Baptist and the promise of judgment upon the unbelieving cities who witnessed HIs work yet did not repent.

    Matthew 11 begins with what is referred to as a "transitional" passage (v.1). While the disciples were going around the countryside doing the work that Jesus had commissioned, He continued to preach in the cities in Galilee. Verses 2-3 describe how John the Baptist had been thrown into ...read more

    Come Unto Me: An Exposition Of Matthew 11:16-30

     | 5,848 views

    Jesus' invitation to come to Him has an "or else" component to it.

    Come Unto Me: An Exposition of Matthew 11:16-30 The Gospel lectionary text selection for what is called Proper 9, seems at first to be quite odd. The selections are Matthew 11:16-20 and 11:25-30, leaving out what is between. The first selection talks about the people rejecting the message of both ...read more
