    What Ever Happened To Sin?

    Contributed by Cameron Bottema on Jan 3, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,809 views

    In our society, sin has become a "bad word." In the name of tolorance, Christians are excusing their own sin and the sins of others. This sermon deals with the reality of Sin based on God's Inspired Word.

    INTRODUCTION: Psychologist Karl Menninger asked this most significant question: WHATEVER HAPPENED TO SIN? This is a haunting question. It lingers with us, and must be addressed from the perspective of Holy Scripture, and with undaunting courage. * - TODAY, we want safe sex, so people in our ...read more

    Que sera sera? What will be wil be sound like King Saul's excuse for not waiting on God's plan. King Saul had a tendancy to blame others for his actions. Beware by friend.

    Who Do We Follow?

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Mar 30, 2014
     | 5,614 views

    We may call ourselves Christians, but is Jesus our Shepherd? Are we really following him or merely using his name to excuse following a man, a tradition or our own stubbornness?

    Intro: We often hear the 23rd Psalm read or recited at funerals, but did you know that it does not apply to everyone, only to the sheep of the Great Shepherd. Goal: To really understand the most popular of all the Psalms. Plan: We will go through Psalm 23 looking at some important details. I ...read more

    There Are No Advantages To Sin

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 27, 2021
     | 2,281 views

    The Scriptures are filled with illustrations of people who learned the hard way and oftentimes too late that sinful actions carry a high price and prove to be of no advantage to anyone. What, then, is your excuse?

    The Bible has never been shy or unapologetic when it comes to exposing the sins, deceit, and wickedness of fallen humanity and our war against the righteousness and holiness of God. The Bible is open and blunt about the penalty for sin, but has also shown that the Lord God is not willing that ...read more

    Looking For The Escape Clause?...the Good Samaritan

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 12, 2022
     | 3,077 views

    The story of the Good Samaritan was Jesus' way of blasting our excuses for trying to get out of obeying God to demonstrate compassion for the needy. An escape clause is a device in a contract to elude responsibility!

JOKE 1: A lawyer died and went to Heaven. “There must be some mistake,” the lawyer argued. “I’m too young to die. I’m only 55.” “Fifty-five?” said Saint Peter. “No, according to our ...read more

    The one who had opened blind eyes, made the lame to walk again, and the deaf to hear. The one who could raise the dead-was dead Himself! They placed Him in a tomb, sealed the door, and placed guards at the door. At that moment the devil rejoiced; he thoug

    "when Faith And Doubt Collide" (Christmas Eve Communion Service)

    Contributed by David Henderson on Oct 27, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,198 views

    We find in the scripture that nearly 40 times Jesus performed an act of healing. Water to wine. Fed 5000 without very little food. He healed the blind, the deaf; the lame. And the reason was simple: it was never just about the healing…it was always to teach a lesson.

    "a Hardened Heart In A Healed Body" (Message 11 In Gospel Of John 2021) Series

    Contributed by Gordon Weatherby on Mar 31, 2021
     | 3,786 views

    This message deals with the healing of a man who had been lame for 38 years. Rather than being filled with praise and thanksgiving for the miracle he reported Jesus to the religious authorities to get him in trouble because of his resentment of Jesus for confronting him in his sin.

    Every small and insignificant thing that is in our hands can become a mighty tool in the hands of our glorious and mighty God. So, what is it that we must do to accomplish extraordinary things for the Lord? Read on to know how this could become a possibility in your life.

    In Exodus 15:6, we read “Your right hand, O LORD, glorious in power.”(NRSV) 1. The Hand of God God’s hand is not only ‘glorious in power’ but as we read in another version His hand is also ‘Majestic in power’. The question that may arise in one’s mind as we read this verse is that, ‘If the hand ...read more

    How do you do "church"? Is it about going to a building and singing songs, praying prayers and listening to a sermon... or is there something more to it than that?

    OPEN: Years ago at summer camp I learned this little song. If you know it sing along with me: Peter and John went to pray. They met a lame man on the way.

    The Bible is so vast ... we can’t possibly memorize it all. Let’s not use this as an excuse for not living righteous lives. Jesus gives us ONE VERSE as a guide to live by.
