     | 6,992 views

    On the day of Pentecost, something incredible happened that had never happened before – the Holy Spirit came to reveal the sacred secret of God held hidden for all of eternity past.

    “Surely you have heard about the administration of God's grace that was given to me for you, that is, the mystery made known to me by revelation, as I have already written briefly” (Eph 3:2,3 NIV). There are two Greek words used in Scripture for the word “secret.” They are “Kruptos” and ...read more

    Faith In Your Relationships

     | 881 views

    I think that the problem is not with what people believe; the problem is that too many of us don't live what we claim to believe.

    Belief in God is pretty strong among Americans. A survey shows that 53% say that they know God exists and they have no doubts. 18% say that they believe in God but they still have some doubts. And 4% believe in God just sometimes. Another poll found that more than 68% of Americans identify as ...read more

    This sermon explores a crucial aspect of our Christian walk, the relationship between faith and works. The main text comes from James 2:14-26, where the apostle James makes a compelling argument that faith without works is dead.

    Good morning, beloved brothers and sisters in Christ. Today, we are going to explore a crucial aspect of our Christian walk, the relationship between faith and works.

    Talk The Talk And Walk The Walk

    Faith and works. This is the duo that is inseparable for James. James lays that out pretty plainly in this passage. Faith and works must go together. Belief and action, words and deeds.

    Text: James 2:14-26 DT: James is telling us that we need to not only talk HIS talk, but walk HIS walk. When I was a kid I had a favorite duo. Two things that went together that one without the other just didn’t happen or it just didn't make sense that was Woody and Buzz lightyear. I love the ...read more

    I first put this Lenten address together in 2008, and when the Vicar's wife said she found it good and thought it should go on "Sermoncentral" - so who was I to disagree. I offer this series as a help and it is based on Richard Foster's excellent book Prayer

    Introduction. This series on Prayer is based on Richard Foster’s BRILLIANT book simply called "Prayer". If you want to study Prayer seriously it is a book you must read.

    Evangelical Christianity often struggles with the words of James 2 when he declares things like "faith without works is dead," and "Abraham was justified by works." This sermon reconciles his meaning to that of Paul and demonstrates genuine faith is always expressed in works.

    If I have been forgiven for all my sins, why not keep on sinning?

    The end of phase three in Illinois also has us thinking about our freedom to assemble and the right to say and do as we please. In many ways, we have been freed for more. But what does this really mean for us as a Christian? Help me with this phrase:: Freedom isn’t…. Free -----someone paid a price ...read more

    The word “believe” is broad and is open to all kinds and variations of meaning depending on what the person has in mind. What does the Bible say about belief, believing and faith?

    Belief, Believing and Faith - Interchangeable Terms? Today we will be reading from Hebrews 11:1-6 We live in the era of cheap grace and easy salvation. “Just repeat after me.” “Did you mean that with all of your heart?” “You’re saved!

    This morning, we come to faith alone. This was the material principle of the Reformation. The question at hand was, “How is one made right with God?” The theological term for this is “justification.”
