    Taking Risks For Homeland Security

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 29, 2005
    based on 19 ratings
     | 3,796 views

    For Men’s Day at Emmaus Baptist Church, Quinton, VA. Aquila is an example of taking risks to secure his self-knowledge, his relationships, and his contribution to the church.

    Anything worth doing involves risk, doesn’t it? Nothing great has ever been accomplished by people afraid to take risks. I have seen a poster that showed a small fish, closing in on a worm and a fishhook, but unaware that he was about to be gobbled up by a large fish, which was itself about to be ...read more

    Anything that would hinder us in our walk, our work or our service must be radically amputated from our lies and replaced with that which will glorify God.

    Radical Spiritual Amputation Mark 9:42-50 On April 26, 2003, Aron Ralston was hiking through Blue John Canyon, in eastern Utah. While he was descending a slot canyon, an 800 pound suspended boulder, became dislodged, as he was climbing down from it. It crushed his right hand and pinned his right ...read more

    What God Wants On Sunday Morning

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 16, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,392 views

    We are incurably religious, thinking that if we use the right formulas, we will be acceptable to God. But God wants our personal involvement and our investment in understanding Him.

    Our most persistent sin is that we are religious. Of all the sins that men and women commit, of all the wrongheaded directions we take, of all the wayward wanderings on which we go, none is more persistent than this: that we are religious. As someone has put it, we are incurably religious. ...read more

    The Punishing Rod Part 1

     | 528 views

    When Habakkuk was disturbed, he brought his interests straightforwardly to God. In the wake of accepting God's responses, he then, at that point, reacted with a supplication of faith.

    Part One When Habakkuk was disturbed, he brought his interests straightforwardly to God. In the wake of accepting God's responses, he then, at that point, reacted with a supplication of faith. Habakkuk's model is one that ought to support us as we battle to move from uncertainty to faith. ...read more

    Next to knowing Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, nothing is more important than having a good positive attitude. Your attitude can make or break you, heal or hurt you, make you friends or enemies, make you happy or miserable, and make you a success or failure. Your attitude is a reflection of ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,171 views

    Faith in Jesus is what determines who will be accepted by God, who will recline at the table and who will be cast out. It is in response to Jesus in faith that he will give you rest.

    Matthew 11:25-30 To the Heavy Laden 8/2/09 D. Marion Clark Introduction Is there a more heart-warming passage than the verses we are considering this morning? Let me read Jesus’ invitation: Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and ...read more

     | 36,663 views

    If I am going to do battle for peace and justice, I need appropriate equipping -- sometimes for hard work, sometimes for self-defense, and always for a teachable spirit.

    There may be some things of which it can be said that one size fits all, but shoes are not among them. Shoes are very personal, and when they’re wrong, they’re wrong. If they hurt, they hurt. With some things, you can make do with the wrong size – a belt that’s too long, pants that are a bit ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,464 views

    Christians are lovers. We are distinguished from the world by Who we love and the manner in which we reveal our love. Ours is a love which results from the love of God which is poured out into our lives.

    “O righteous Father, even though the world does not know you, I know you, and these know that you have sent me. I made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.” [1] Karl Barth, the Swiss theologian, ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,335 views

    The rich young ruler’s question was off-base. It assumes that we can do one overriding deed to win God over; it is possessive; and it is self-centered.

    I am not very good at giving gifts. I just have a hard time, when Christmas and birthdays and anniversaries roll around, a hard time giving the right gifts. It’s not that the folks I want to give to are picky or unworthy; it’s just that I can’t seem to figure out what they want and get it. For ...read more

    The parable confronts us with the demand to make a decision concerning the command just give by Jesus. Are we, or are we not, going to love our neighbor as our self.

    LUKE 10: [25-] 29-37 [PARABLES IN LUKE] THE GOOD SAMARITAN [1 John 3:18] Few people really understand US Internal Revenue Service income tax regulations and for good reason.

    The bronze wash basin in the Tabernacle furniture represents the place for self-examination and washing in the Christian life as we go about fulfilling our role as a royal priesthood.

    The True Tabernacle: (The Laver) TEXT: Exodus 30:17-21 (NKJV) Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying: “You shall also make a laver of bronze, with its base also of bronze, for washing. You shall put it between the tabernacle of meeting and the altar. And you shall put water in it, for Aaron and ...read more

    God's grace is transformative. It’s intended to be life-changing. Grace is about God accepting us the way we are but loving us enough not to leave us that way.

    Series: Amazing! “TRANSFORMING GRACE” TITUS 2:11-14 Last week, we started this message series called “Amazing!” We’re looking at God’s grace and what it means to live in his grace. One of the things we mentioned last week is that God’s grace ...read more

    ...the most important decision anyone will ever make (in their lifetime) centers around whether or not they accept the TRUTH about the death and resurrection of Jesus.

    JESUS OF THE CROSS Text: I Corinthians 1:17 thru 24 Without a doubt the most controversial subject anyone could ever want to discuss with a friend or a family member has to be the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

    The Lord’s Table is a place of connection and community, not of individuality and isolation; a place where one can be understood in the midst of an overwhelming world. It is a place of acceptance.

    A number of months ago, Margaret and I had the privilege of touring Italy, along with several of you and a number of other people. It was a wonderful experience, most of it.
