Sermons on Satanic Deception:

Now For The Real Enemy... Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Nov 30, 2022

In Revelation 12 the wraps are taken off our greatest enemy the great red dragon, Satan. He is defeated. Not dead yet, but he is definitely defeated. Christ won the victory on the cross. Michael and the angels in heaven fought. And we, God's people, also play a part.

We’ve come to the last of our talks in our present series on Revelation. Today we’re looking at a passage in Revelation 12. Revelation has 22 chapters, so we’re only half way through the book. Many commentators think that Revelation 12 is one of the key chapters in Revelation. In this chapter, ...read more

Here is something that I am going to discuss today, Deterrence of Satanic Snares, and it reminds us that we live in a world that is often contrary to the ways of God.

Welcome, beloved friends and family in Christ. We gather here today, not as strangers or acquaintances, but as a community, bound by the love and grace of our Savior.

Our Approaches To Truth And Sin

Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on May 29, 2008

People should not be judged by their outward appearances. It is our approaches to sin and truth that make a difference in how we impact others. John teaches us some things in this

Our approach to Sin 1 John 1: 5-10 5 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is ...read more

Warming By The Fires Of The World

Contributed by Rodney Burton on Jan 27, 2009

Peter denied Jesus as he was warming himself. How many of us have denied Christ while warming around a worldly fire?

“Warming By the Fires of the World” Mark 14:53-54 And they led Jesus away to the high priest; and with him were assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes. And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest and he sat with the servants and warmed himself ...read more

The Sound Of Compromise Series

Contributed by Rodney Burton on Jan 29, 2009

While Moses was on the mountain with God, the camp of Israel compromised by worshiping a golden calf. We get into compromise by creating a god in our own image.

Background n God had brought the children of Israel out of Egyptian slavery and bondage and across the Red Sea. Now they were camped at Mount Sinai, and God had called Moses up to the top of the mountain to deliver His law to him for the people. n While the people were waiting for Moses’ return, ...read more

Left Alone

Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Mar 7, 2009

Even though God is omnipotent, God allows Himself to be hurt. In this sermon, Jeremiah speaks of the irony of substituting the inadequate for the Omnipotent.

Sometimes, even when a pastor is as true to God’s Word as possible and has preached a number of sermons to the text that have elucidated the Truth, God’s Holy Spirit comes back to that same pastor and causes something new to be eliminated, something passed over in previous readings and study. ...read more

Lot - The Struggle Of Righteousness

Contributed by Timothy Darling on Mar 19, 2009

The stories in Genesis present Lot in a very negative light, but Peter and Abraham thought he was righteous. It is a time for adjusting our interpretation.

Lot – The struggle of righteousness Genesis 18:16-33 This is a classic passage because it depicts something that we somehow know we should not do, bargaining with God. Abraham, out of concern for his nephew Lot, in an episode that sounds like an auction, begs God to be merciful. Five times, ...read more

The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly Series

Contributed by Mark Opperman on Aug 29, 2011

God's law is good because He is good; Sin is bad and deceives us into rebelling against God; The effects of sin are ugly, but God wants to forgive and restore us to Himself!

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Romans 7:7-13 7 What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed I would not have known what sin was except through the law.

The Way We Walk

Contributed by Timothy Dolan on Sep 30, 2012

Being an imitator of God means that we must live a life of love and light. Verse 2 of Ephesians 5 describes living a life of love (imitation of Christ's love) and walking as a child of light (verse 8) another imitation. Word imitation means to mimic.

The Pharisee's Lady Series

Contributed by Joe Tilton on Jun 8, 2013

A remarkable thing happened at a dinner intended to be political. Too, this is about women's roles in society and how we should protect reputations and the changing power of God.

The Pharisee’s Lady Today, we begin with a question; who was the greatest female financier in the Bible? The answer is; Pharaoh’s daughter. She went down to the bank of the Nile and drew out a little prophet. The scripture passage we examine today is Luke 7:36 through the eighth ...read more
