"Am I my brother's keeper?" (Genesis 4:9).
CAIN AND ABEL. Genesis 4:2-15. The acceptance of Abel’s offering as opposed to Cain’s is often explained in terms of THE NATURE OF THE SACRIFICE. We are reminded that ‘almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood, there is no remission’ (cf. Hebrews 9:22). ...read more

Death and what then? Will you merely cease to exist? Is there another life awaiting us?
It is a major fact of the future of each person. Death and what then? Will you merely cease to exist? Is there another life awaiting us? Some say it is irrelevant. For many, it is disturbing to discuss it. Others feel what is done here and now is all there is to it. But the Bible makes it clear ...read more

This sermon encourages Christians to remain faithful and prepared for the return of Christ, trusting in His role as a good shepherd and His promise of coming back, even though the exact time is unknown.
How many of you here today like to be prepared and ready for things? You’re the type of person that’s packed and ready for a trip a full week before you’re supposed to leave. You’ve got your meals all planned out and your groceries ordered up. Your linen closet is stocked and ready to receive the ...read more
Scripture: Luke 12:32-40
Topics: Faithfulness, Preparedness, Second Coming
This sermon teaches that our faith allows us to genuinely love the unseen Christ, resulting in an inexpressible and glorified joy that transcends our circumstances and serves as a foretaste of heaven.
Introduction: The World's Motto The world lives by a simple motto: "Seeing is believing." We are creatures of the senses. We trust what we can see, what we can touch, what we can measure. We demand evidence, proof, and personal experience. To love someone, you must know them, see ...read more
Scripture: 1 Peter 1:8
Explores the strength and joy derived from unity among believers, bearing each other's burdens, and generously giving to those in need.
Welcome, dear family in Christ, to this gathering where we come together to share in the richness of God’s Word. It is always a joy to meet with you, to see your faces, to feel the warmth of our shared faith, and to know that we are all here because of one thing - our love for our Savior, Jesus ...read more
Scripture: Philippians 2:19-30
Topics: Concerned
When we are overwhelmed, in our panic we do not see what is before us, nor can we hear any word of counsel; someone -- innocent, devoted to us -- needs to create a stable point, a hiding place for us. Ultimately that is what Jesus Christ in His cross does.
We have abilities that we barely even use. Our senses are capable of doing much more than we allow them to do. I want to try a short experiment with you. I want to test your eyes and your ears. First, I am going to give you thirty seconds to look around this room and take it all in. Many of ...read more
Scripture: Isaiah 32:1-8
Jesus told these stories in Luke’s Gospel to teach us to count what it would cost us to fully follow Jesus and what it would cost us if we choose a different path.
INTRODUCTION Sermonic Theme Opening Statement: I came across a story this week that all the farmers will appreciate, especially Marvin Abplanalp. A hen and a pig approached a church and read the advertised sermon topic: “What can we do to help the poor?” Immediately the hen suggested they feed ...read more
Jesus knows & cares about us. He knows what is inside us. He knows how we think. He knows when we're telling the truth & when we're lying. He knows who & what we really are, & He loves us anyway.
MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL,KANSAS, OK (revised:2016) TEXT: Mark 1:40-2:12 ILL. In my opinion, one of the most beautiful songs in our hymnbooks is #528, entitled "No One Ever Cared for Me Like Jesus." Notice the words in verse 1: I would love to ...read more

Scripture: Luke 6:27-31
This sermon suggests seven consequences if the resurrection of the dead is false. But, because the resurrection of the dead is true, we have hope!
Introduction As we continue our series in The Apostles’ Creed I would like to examine today what it means that Jesus rose from the dead on the third day. Please listen as I recite the Apostles’ Creed: I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, ...read more

Scripture: Genesis 1:1
A series of exploding manhole covers in Washington is compared with the series of unexpected and disruptive events in Paul’s life. Surviving becomes a matter of one’s vision of where we have come from and where we are going.
It all started in Georgetown. On M Street, in broad daylight, a manhole cover suddenly exploded into the air, flying six feet straight up and landing with a heavy clatter. There were no injuries, but there were fiery flames, an acrid smell, cars dodging one another, pedestrians pumping ...read more
Scripture: Acts 26:19
Spiritual indecision leads to sickness and ultimately to death. We are scared of taking risks. Black history shows us, however, that without accepting risk there is no progress.
You should be a fly on the wall around our house on Friday evenings. You see, Friday evenings are our night for ourselves. We try not to take on church things on Fridays, and unless you are at the point of death, you can wait for your pastoral call until Saturday morning. The pastor and his ...read more
Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
Thomas dealt with his loss by postponing his choices and by absenting himself from the community. We do the same; but the nailprints of our shame and our guilt tell the truth about us.
We respond to loss in a variety of ways. There is no predicting how people will act when they lose something they cherish. I have seen everything from screaming and wailing to solid stoicism to outright laughter. I have conducted funerals where people have wept openly, and others ...read more
