    Resurrection Unexpected

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Apr 1, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,960 views

    No one really expected the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Today we focus on the expectations of two of those who first saw Jesus: John and Mary. What they expected, and how Jesus actually met them, can help your relationship with Jesus too.

    No one saw it coming. No one. On the Sunday following the crucifixion of Jesus Christ no one really expected what happened (or at least it they didn’t fully comprehend it). They should have. Shortly after confirming to His men that He was the Messiah, Jesus said: Mark 8:31 “The Son of ...read more

    Matthew's prediction of the Abomination of Desolation is compared to Luke's account of the destruction of the temple in 70 AD. Rightly diving this portion of the Olivet Discourse is crucial to understanding end-time prophecy. The focus of this message is Matthew 24:15-31.

    Last week we examined the first part of Jesus’s Olivet Discourse in Matthew 24:1-14. In that portion of the prophecy Jesus told us the conditions that would exist during this current age: deception, wars, pestilence, earthquakes, persecution, etc. In verse 8 He uses the metaphor of labor pains ...read more

    This psalm is titled A Song of Ascents. It is another of the 15 songs sung by travelers on their way to Jerusalem, usually for one of the three yearly feasts—Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles. Like Psalm 127, it has a focus on God’s work in and through the family.

    And He Said He Would. Psalm 128:1-6NKJV The most-sacred symbol in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, is a tree: a sprawling, shade-bearing—an old American Elm. Tourists drive from miles around to see her.

    In Heaven, all preachers will be out of a job, but not praisers. Now, praise can change your focus, change your circumstances, change your enemies' position, and change those around you. Every Christian ought to be a Hallelujah from head to foot!

     | 1,232 views

    The Church has lost primary focus on Missions and Evangelism, fellowship rather involved accusing one another on the basis of food, clothes, and a few habits pertaining to various cultural identities, causing many to stumble in their faith walk and lose their commitment to Christ and to the Church.

    Romans 14:17-23 Glory of the believers Nature of the Kingdom of God Paul points out to his readers and listeners that the Kingdom of God is not related to food habits and approved drinks. The Kingdom of God is spiritual, apolitical, and beyond food and drinks. Discussion of Foods and their habits ...read more

    This sermon illustrates how Sarah overcame the physical impossibility of her age by shifting her focus from her own weakness to God's character, judging Him to be faithful to His promises and thereby receiving the strength to bring forth life.

    Introduction: The Laughter of Doubt vs. The Laughter of Faith If you know the story in Genesis, you know that when Sarah first heard she would have a son, she laughed.

    Jesus wants us to be people who bring light into the world. To do this, we need to be careful about what we allow into our hearts and minds. The things we see and focus on can either bring light or darkness into our lives.

    Our eyes play a big role in shaping our desires and actions. Jesus talks about this when he addresses the sin of adultery. He emphasizes the importance of where we look, as it can lead us down a path of darkness. Often, temptation starts with a glance, but if we're not careful, it can turn into ...read more
