    This message shows the truth that God had a plan for redemption right from the beginning. Using scriptures from Genesis 3 and Isaiah 7, a persuasive case is built for the Virgin Birth of Jesus Christ.

    Before Messiah’s Birth Pastor Eric J. Hanson December 11, 2011 All the way back in Genesis, God had a plan for redeeming us from sin and its baleful effects. He announced His plan even while pronouncing judgment on the sin of our first parents. In addressing the Devil, who had introduced ...read more

    Matthew 15: 10-20 - Barclay stated that this Scripture was 'one of the supreme contests in history'. Two religious viewpoints clash with what Jesus says. Jesus again points to what is really important.

    Good morning. Laws are important in any society in order to keep peace and order. But there are laws and then there are laws. Here are some laws that are still on the books in our state of Kansas. • In Derby, it is illegal to hit a vending machine that stole your money. • In Dodge ...read more

    As we see from our scriptures this morning, letting our flesh control us will lead us to choices that will produce death; letting the Spirit lead us will bring us life & peace.

    “Choices” Romans 8:6-8 NLT There are a lot of things we try to get around & avoid in our life; but there is one that we will never escape. Choices will make a demand on our life as long as we are breathing. As we see from our scriptures this morning, letting our flesh control us will ...read more

    Today in our passage of Scripture we’re going to see Jesus be our example as to how we’re to share the message of Jesus’ love and hope w/others.

    Intro: In the 1998–1999 NBA basketball season, David Robinson, frequent all-star and veteran center for the San Antonio Spurs, learned to share the limelight with the new dominant player of the league: his teammate Tim Duncan. -San Antonio won the NBA playoffs in 1999 with Tim Duncan ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,863 views

    Commitment is viewed by many diferent people many different ways, yet the scripture has another idea about what commitment is and how we can achieve single-minded devotion to Christ.

    CASUAL OR CONCRETE COMMITMENT (All my sermons use illustrations found on www.sermoncentral.com and all scripture is NIV unless otherwise indicated) A little old lady was amazed at how nice the young man was next door.

    More trustworthy sayings. The real deal from scripture. 1- Salvation can come to the ignorant and unbelieving 2- Mercy can be shown to the worst of sinners 3- Glory will come to the eternal King

    INTRO.- Trust me. I’ve heard it said that you should never trust a person who says, “Trust me.” It’s more like never trust a politician who says, “Trust me.” Someone said: Never trust a restaurant that has a sign that reads, “Mama’s home cooking.” Especially, if there are no cars at that ...read more

    The Sacred Cow

    We don’t have high regard for cows in our culture. Even the term, sacred cow, is funny to us. However, God has given cows a special place in the Holy Scriptures.

    One of my favorite Far Side cartoons shows a herd of cattle standing at a fence, facing a leader. In the background is a large urban city in flames. In the caption, the leader cow is saying, “Evidently, Agent (some number) has accomplished her mission.” Cows. Even the word is funny. We don’t ...read more

    . There is hardly a more precise picture of the work of Christ on the cross, than is found here in this body of scripture. We can best glean the truths from these verses by focusing on the prisoners’ failure, their friend, and their future.

    The Baker, Butler and the Peace Maker Text: Gen. 40 Introduction: Joseph had been rejected by his brothers, sold into slavery in Egypt, falsely accused and sentence to the prison. It was while in prison that Joseph meets two prisoners of the Pharaoh. Joseph was assigned to them and during their ...read more

    Living Faith / Dead Faith

    based on 7 ratings
     | 23,737 views

    The Bible speaks of a faith that is dead and living faith that empowers the Christian life. This study examines the scriptures that teach about faith and explain how that faith is not the product of man’s efforts, but the gift of God.

    Living Faith / Dead Faith Over the last several months I have been praying for God to reveal more about faith to me. As I study the scriptures, I realized that there is much I have yet to understand. This study is the result of a lot of seeking and praying. While I believe that God has answered ...read more

    Abraham was righteous before God. But what was the grounds of Abraham's righteousness, faith or works? The answer of Jewish tradition was works, but Scripture says Abraham's righteousness was by faith. Paul proves that the doctrine of justification by fai

    ROMANS 4: 1-8 RIGHTEOUSNESS IS APART FROM WORKS In the preceding paragraph (3:21-31) Paul has been proclaiming a righteousness from God, and therefore valid before God, because it does not in any way depend on human merit.
