    As much as God has a role to play in your life, you also have a role to play in it: You set you love on Him, He delivers, honors and saves you. A you age increases, learn to number your days by walking in wisdom. This wisdom leads you to serve others.

    The Last Page Series

    Jesus teaches us about the final judgment. This sermon uses the analogy of reading the last page of a book to explain the parable. It helps the hearer to see how this supports the doctrine of faith alone, and it encourages them to serve.

    The first thing that I always do when I read a new book is to read the last few pages. Its something that I always do, and I can’t help it or stop it. I love reading the last scene and then reading the book to figure out what that last image portrayed means, or the reason and significance behind ...read more

    Have we ever wanted Jesus to show Himself? Would we like to meet Jesus? Have we been walking right past Jesus without recognizing Him?

    Prelude Have we ever wanted Jesus to show Himself? Would we like to meet Jesus? Have we been walking right past Jesus without recognizing Him? Purpose: Let’s find Jesus in the needy. Plan: Let’s look at the Judgment of the Nations in Matthew 25:31-46, the Parable of the Sheep and Goats. Story: ...read more

    What difference can we make? Why can't others go in our stead? Perhaps I am not cut out to make Disciples.

    Matthew 28:16-20 I worked at many things before becoming a Pastor. At one time, I was an Engineer and traveled from steel mill to steel mill, from country to country. What I learned, among many other things is that when a steel mill is down, they are willing to pay just about anything to get it ...read more

    Serving Those In Need

     | 14,579 views

    Jesus' parable of the sheep and the goats reminds us of some important truths: people matter, faith works, and Christ judges. Jesus points us to a God who doesn't want anyone to go to hell but all to come to eternal life.

    Matthew 25:31-46 Serving those in Need Have you ever seen that TV show, “Undercover Boss”? It’s when the boss of a large company goes undercover in his or her own business and discovers what’s really going on—for better or for worse—in the company. While Jesus already knows what’s going on—he ...read more

    It's the Last Sunday of the Church Year/Christ the King Sunday. Jesus speaks of separating the sheep & goats on the last day. The question on people's minds: Am I a sheep or a goat? (From our lectionary-based series for November 2017, "BE the Church.")

    The Word of God that engages us today—on this Christ the King Sunday—is our Gospel read-ing, from Matthew 25. We’ve been looking at this chapter for a couple of weeks. And now we get to this section: the separation of the sheep and the goats. And it’s a difficult text. Not difficult to understand, ...read more

    The birth of Jesus is a beautiful picture of God sending His Son to this earth to take on the form of man and become the sacrificial lamb that would satisfy the requirements of the law for all of eternity. But His birth was more than that!

    SUMMARY The birth of Jesus is a beautiful picture of God sending His Son to this earth to take on the form of man and become the sacrificial lamb that would satisfy the requirements of the law for all of eternity.

    Humble Thyself

     | 10,935 views

    Do not exalt yourself. Do not be prideful. Do not claim to be the best at anything, even if it's true. You are not really 10 ft. tall and bullet proof. Even Superman has weakness. Pride is our Kryptonite.

    Humble Thyself Sermon: Feb. 9, 2019 (4th of 11th month) Luke 18:9-14 Two men in the temple. Matt.25:32-46 The response of the saints is "WHEN did we do these things", rather than "YES, I sure did!" They could have said, yes we did these things in order to give glory to GOD, ...read more

    The poor Divinity hides beneath the offensive demeanor of a poor man....The poor are the last to suspect it. They grow accustomed to their want and isolation...For God it is better that way.

    Last Judgment

    The road of human life divides into two, one half splitting off toward a punishment that never ceases and the other toward an undying life with the Lord in his Kingdom.

    The Last Judgment One morning, 4-year-old Kevin and his grandpa went out to buy donuts. On the way, Grandpa turned to Kevin and asked, “Which way is heaven?” Kevin pointed to the sky. “Which way is hell?” Kevin pointed towards the floor of the truck. Grandpa continued, “And where are you ...read more

    We struggle to try and understand that good and bad things occur without regard to persons, be they good and devout or be they back-sliders or heathen.

    Surprise Endings: When? Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Apr 6, 2019
     | 5,863 views

    We might think Christ will judge us based on our correct doctrine, faithful church attendance, or moral behavior. But in our text Jesus offers a different standard: our response to the needy people of this world - the least of these.

    Surprise Endings: WHEN? Matthew 25:31-46 Introduction We are at the end of our four-part sermon series called Surprise Endings. This parable is different in some ways. It does not begin with “the Kingdom of heaven is like” - leading some to believe it is not specifically a parable. It is the ...read more
