God Clearly says hands off other peoples stuff. Is it merely taking things that God says not to? It is so much more. God’s word clearly shows us that stealing is rejecting God!
Intro: This is another no brainer. Don’t take things that do not belong to you. You would think that all people would respect other’s belongings. How can we in a society that believes that we evolved from some fish like thing that crawled out of the primordial ooze? How can we in a society that ...read more

Isaiah describes the Christmas Gift with four titles that speak to the ministry of Jesus, our Christmas Gift.
The Gift of Christmas: “Mighty God” Isaiah 9:1-7 There is a heaviness hanging like a cloud over many hearts this Christmas Season. The sounds of Christmas joy are muffled by the kettle drum beats of fear, loneliness, and uncertainty. Hearts that were once full of joy, excitement, and expectation ...read more

Jesus provides promises and proofs of His Deity and Messiahship after two I AM declarations; I am the Door and I am the Good Shepherd
“Promises and Proofs from the Good Shepherd” John 10:22-42 Last week we heard Jesus make two more “I AM” statements, emphatic declarations of His own Deity, identifying Himself as the YAHWEH, the Lord God of the Old Testament. He said, “I AM the DOOR of the ...read more

Jesus proclaims His fifth I AM statement, "I AM the Resurrection and the Life" and explains the meaning of his declaration.
The Promise of Resurrection and Life John 11:1-27 The time Jesus spent beyond the Jordan was short-lived and Jesus moves back into the area of Jerusalem in John 11, his death on the cross only days away. The rejection and hatred toward Jesus would not dim the unmistakable witness of the glory of ...read more

In this series I am going to attempt to teach who God really is. Christians, and those in the world get this view of who they think God is, yet it does not quite show the whole image of who God is.
Who is God? Most people today begin to form their own personal opinion on what they think God is like or what He should be like. This, my friends, is the beginning of idoltry. We all have done it. We say, "well if God is so loving, why is there so much cruelty in the world?" Let’s not make ...read more
Uses a cell phone to illustrate the basics of effective prayer. Addresses the tendency of people to rely on repetition and ritual to get God’s attention.
OPEN: (a deep voiced man was positioned in a side room with microphone and monitor. This opening illustration goes on for a couple of pages but worked well to set up the rest of the sermon) "Our Father who art in heaven..." "YES?" (look up and around suspiciously then bow and say) "Our Father ...read more
Scripture: Matthew 6:5-13
Jesus said in different places why He came to earth. So, let's check out what He said and see how it all fits into His perfect plan of salvation for all who will place their faith and trust in Him! PTL!
Are you “Pressing On to Know the Lord”? - Hosea 6:3a Last week we took a look at who Jesus is and we saw that the Father in heaven revealed through Peter that Jesus is “the Christ, the Son of the Living God”. And, that this declaration, this fact is the very foundation ...read more

When Jesus said, To this end was I born, He was acknowledging His incarnation.
FOR THIS I CAME. John 18:33-37. The interview between Pilate and Jesus paints a pathetic picture. The King of kings stood accused before the tribunal of an earthly governor.

Explore and understand Jeremiah 29:11, focusing on how God's promise in this verse applies to and shapes His purpose and plan for our family units.
Good morning, family. Today, we're going to take a closer look at Jeremiah 29:11 and what it tells us about God's purpose, plan, and promise for the family unit.

When assaulted by Satan, Jesus refuted him with the Word of God. He knows, believes and applies the Word. "It is written" is very important. Can we say that today?
There is a war going on in the wilderness. • Satan is out to tempt Jesus and stop him from doing God’s will. • Jesus defends himself with the only weapon He has – God’s Word. • Three times He responded, “It is written.” Satan is out to deceive, to lure man into doing things contrary to God’s ...read more
