    Gideon: The Two Tests He Had To Pass Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Nov 5, 2022
     | 2,103 views

    Gideon had met the Angel of the LORD face to face, one day, and that night, received a message from the LORD. That message contained instructions for two of the most difficult things Gideon would ever be asked to do.

    (Note: this message is based on and edited from a sermon preached at First Baptist Church of Chamois, MO on 10-16-2022 but is not an exact transcription.) Introduction: Gideon had just realized he saw the Angel of the LORD and was probably trying to take it all in. He was one of only a few people ...read more

    Oxyrhynchus is an ancient town in the north of Egypt (situated near the modern town of al-Bahnasa), approximately 160km southwest of Cairo on one of the Nile's canals. Many ancient documents written on papyrus were found there—70% of all known papyri originated there.

    The Rejection Tour

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Jun 30, 2022
     | 1,504 views

    The Christian has to face rejection if he is serious about following Jesus. Oftentime, this rejection comes from family and friends.

    The Rejection Tour Luke 9:51-62 No one likes rejection. This is especially true when your purpose is to be helpful. Rejection from your enemies is bad enough. at least you can rationalize that this is your enemy; therefore, it is a badge of honor rather than shame. Rejection can come in many ...read more

    Advent 2021 - Christmas Sunday - Pointing Fingers

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Dec 18, 2021
     | 2,720 views

    Is it OK to point literally or figuratively? There is a lot of pointing going on in the nativity story, the Gospels, the rest of the New Testament and in the Old Testament. What is the pointing all about? It's all about Jesus!

    Christmas Sunday - Pointing Fingers Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Job 19:25-27 “I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand on the earth. And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God; I myself will see Him with my ...read more

    Ham, Noah's Son Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 23, 2022
     | 3,116 views

    The Curse of Ham is described in the Book of Genesis as imposed by the patriarch Noah upon Ham's son Canaan. It occurs in the context of Noah's drunkenness and is provoked by a shameful act committed by Noah's son Ham, who "saw the nakedness of his father."

    Ham, Noah's Son Scholars believe Ham is the youngest of Noah's three sons. Ham asks his brothers to help cover Noah when drunk and naked. According to the Table of Nations in the Book of Genesis, Ham was the second son of Noah and the father of Cush, Mizoram, Phut, and Canaan. Flavius ...read more

    A Crown Jewel Series

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Mar 26, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,676 views

    When searching for a lost coin (lost person) the Lord gets to work! He lights a lamp and sweeps the house, like using a fine-tooth comb. The lost coin is like a jewel in a wedding headdress. We are to Jesus as a crown jewel!

    I wish to begin our message by first reading through tonight’s parable, and then we’ll take a closer look after I share a brief introduction. Let’s all stand at this time in honor of the reading of God’s Word: 8 What woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, ...read more

    This passage which we have taken for our contemplation has many life values to learn. But let me share with you three practical life lessons.

    Theme: One Dies for all Text: John 11:45-57 Greetings; The Lord is Good and his love endures forever. Joke: “A frog had fallen in love with human girls. No human girl touched him.

    Are You The King Of The Jews?

    Contributed by Paul Green on Nov 27, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,444 views

    Jesus was the King who never looked like a King, the King who never acted like a king – at least not in the way the world understands royalty. He came the first time, 2000 years ago, as the servant king, and he is coming again, in power and in glory, as the king over all kings.

    Today is the last Sunday of the Christian year, traditionally recognised as ‘The Feast of Christ the King’. Next week is Advent - the start of a new Christian year, but today we conclude the old ecclesiastical year with a proclamation of the kingship of Christ. ‘The Feast of Christ the King’ is a ...read more

    End Times For Advent, Want Can We Do, How Can We Prepare?

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Nov 29, 2021
     | 1,573 views

    Advent is a time to celebrate both the past and the future, as we remember when Jesus. End times prophesy can be horrific, and the last thing we want to hear at during advent. But there is hope, and people need to hear it.

    This sermon was delivered to Holy Trinity in Ayr, South Ayrshire, Scotland on the 28th November 2021; a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries.

    "Love’s In Need Of Love”

    Contributed by Kenneth R. Jenkins on Mar 8, 2022
     | 11,980 views

    Strangely enough, this four-letter word carries a lot of weight in every situation through many generations. What love may mean to you may not mean the same as I see it but everybody wants to know what love is.

    Our subject from the Scripture that was in your hearing, is a question I would like to ask. A question we all should ask ourselves when it comes to the subject we will speak on and try through God’s word find a conclusion. I would like to speak to you through the Holy Spirit’s ...read more

    The Guiding Principles Of Ministry-Service And Love

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,502 views

    Jesus honored God by always serving others and loving the kingdom of God. All of us will face tremendous pressure from within and without. Our greatest challenge will be responding in such a way that God is glorified.

    Recently I watched a documentary called "The Fake Famous." It highlighted three average “Joes” who manipulate social media by purchasing followers, manipulating algorithms and other technics designed to fool people into believing they were famous and trend setters.

    Atonement Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,477 views

    The word "atonement" is missing from the New Testament in many translations. The NIV does use it three times, two of which refer to the sacrifice of Christ.

    ATONEMENT There is power in words for both good and evil. Solomon tells us: “There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings healing” (Prov 12:18). Jesus warned: “I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they ...read more

    One of my favorite characters of the Christmas story is Simeon. He heard the "voice of Jesus" by the Holy Spirit. When you hear the Spirit give you a direction, you are hearing the voice of Jesus. The scriptures can also be "a voice of Jesus" (Jesus Speaks Leonard Sweet)

    Rejection Denied.

    So just what is rejection? For a child, it could be another child not sharing. -For a teen, feelings of not fitting in. Constant peer pressure. -For an adult, rejection might come by prejudice, race, religion, rejection comes with many faces.

    Rejection Denied. Romans 15:7TPT Rejection is one of the most painful experiences known to mankind. I can remember my first year in High School/9th grade. I was going by the lunchroom when a girl motioned for me to come close to the window. When I did, she shouted, “You’re ugly!” The words ...read more
