    Saved From Shallow Religion Youth Sermon

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 5, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,673 views

    Jesus saves us from sin and shallow religion. He teaches us to practice our faith in private, not for public approval, but to build a solid core of self-giving love.

    Today we're going to talk about how Jesus saves us from sin and shallow religion. You know, the kind of religion that's all about showing off and not about what's really going on inside of us. Let's start with a little object lesson. I want you all to imagine a cup. Now, this cup looks super shiny ...read more

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Mar 18, 2025
     | 443 views

    When we begin to feel anxious or overwhelmed, misjudged or offended, occupied with our needs and self-gratification, take a few steps back and take time to look at the big picture

    How many enjoy doing jigsaw puzzles? Normally, we turn all of the pieces face-up; set aside those that have a straight edge (the outside frame) and start assembling those first.

    The Purpose Of The Anointing

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 28, 2025
     | 1,056 views

    The anointing is given for a divine purpose: to serve God’s kingdom, set the captives free, and advance His will on earth. It is not for personal gain or self-glorification but for fulfilling God’s assignment.

    THE PURPOSE OF THE ANOINTING By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Isaiah 61:1-3 "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of ...read more

    God's Favor

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 19, 2025
     | 132 views

    We are not saved by rule-keeping or self-rescue but by God’s grace—grace received by faith—which alone can break sin’s dominion and lead us home.

    Introduction Some of us feel far from God. Far from the person we wanted to be. Far from family. Far from our own true selves. And though we long to come home, we know that we cannot pave that road with our own effort. The Bible has a single word for the road back. That word is grace. Victor ...read more

    So much of what comes “naturally” to us is shaped by sin, self, and the culture around us. But what the Holy Spirit compels us to do—that is divine wisdom at work.

    Go! And Walk in Godly Wisdom - James 3:13–18 (A Sermon in the “Go! And…” Series) Introduction Good morning, Church. Today I want to begin with a quote from Dr Charles Stanley. He once said: “Earthly wisdom is doing what comes naturally. Godly wisdom is doing what the Holy Spirit compels us to ...read more

    “Striving for the Mind of Christ” by Elder Melvin L.

    God calls us to judge ourselves before we worship, or face His judgement because we dishonoured Him. The judgement revolves around recognition of the Body of Christ, the people of God.

    Beatitudes--More Than Skin Deep

    Contributed by Daryl Bahn on Nov 3, 2001
    based on 114 ratings
     | 9,481 views

    Jesus’ Beatitudes are a splash of frigid water in the face of the self-righteous, but a cup of refreshing water for God’s forgiven saints who are weary of the ways of the world. (All Saints Day, 2001)

    BEATITUDES—MORE THAN SKIN DEEP (Matthew 5:1-12) The Beatitudes are like a splash of ice-cold water in the face of those who are self-satisfied and full of themselves. The Pharisees, for example, were wealthy, successful, powerful, and very religious. They thought the coming of the Kingdom of God ...read more

    The fundamental stance we have before God is critical to everything else in our lives, for personal idolatries, failed intimacies, and low self-esteem are all results of our not experiencing salvation.

    When I was young, and riding a bicycle, we didn’t wear helmets. Nobody had thought of such a thing. And even if they had, no government was telling us we had to wear helmets. I haven’t even worn so much as a hat since I reached the age of 13, much less a helmet. So when we spilled, we spilled, ...read more

     | 6,586 views

    Nicodemus was confused because his thinking was earth-bound but Jesus offered him eternal life through a spiritual rebirth if he would believe in Christ’s self-offering on the Cross.

    A LIFE CHANGING INTERVIEW The text, John 3:16 is a biblical classic: "God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." It’s probably the most loved and quoted verse in Scripture. Rev Sandy Millar, Rector of Holy ...read more

    The Weak Strong Man 6

    based on 9 ratings
     | 7,609 views

    Now we like times of great victory and accomplishment but they are most likely going to be dangerous if you allow yourself to be filled with pride. God will see to it that his children know they are not self-sufficient.

    The weak strong man. Judges 15:18-20 06/29/05 After Samson had slain 1000 Philistines, he was about to die of thirst. I could certainly see how a man could get thirsty slaying a thousand enemies with his weapon being the jawbone of a donkey. But in this moment of his life of thirst, was probably ...read more
