    In these days of chaos and confusion, Christians need to focus their minds on one encouraging and inevitable truth--The Return of Christ.

    CAUSE FOR CONTEMPLATION Text: Matt.16: 27; Acts 1: 8-11; James 5: 8 Intro: The passages that we have just read all have one basic theme: JESUS IS COMING AGAIN.

    Seek the things above. Set your mind on the things above. Secure when Jesus comes from above.

    Do you remember as a child the "if" statements your parents made? Or as a parent some of the "ifs" you placed on someone else? The conditions set for you to complete a task.

    This sermon refreshens our minds anew to the words of our Lord Jesus concerning the times in which we live.

    Intro. In Matthew Chapter 24:36-39, Jesus describes our day very clearly from the scriptures. He predicted that our day would be as Noah’s day all over again. It is an amazing truth, that there are no new sins; only new sinners. Our lives apart from God’s intervention would be one vicious cycle. ...read more

    Prayer is such a vital part of the Christian life that we need to be mindful of some things that are hinderances in our prayer life.

    Conformity to Christ is our goal. Live with this end in mind. Spiritual growth is not an option. Put first things first.

    Before I move on to the book of Numbers in my weekly sermons, I like to take this week, in between the books, to revisit the theme of discipleship. • Why do we want to take this discipleship learning journey? Can we do without? • Why do we do what we are doing today? Is it ...read more

    We are to have a similar mind among ourselves, which is ours in Christ Jesus who became obedient to death.

    Philippians 2:2-12 INTRODUCTION A friend recently said to me, "Life would be so much simpler if it weren't for other people." Of course we laughed at the obvious truth of his statement, but also at the irony that people are what make up our lives. It is living in community where the rubber mets ...read more

    The parable of the Sower story with four responses by the hearers: Pay it no mind, A Passing Interest, Too Preoccupied, Perceptive and Productive.
