    The Command To "Cheer Up!"

    Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 4, 2015
     | 9,806 views

    In one of Paul's most discouraged moments, the Lord Jesus appeared to him and told him to cheer up, giving him several reasons why. We too should be buoyed by the same command and encouragements.

    THE COMMAND TO CHEER UP Acts 23:6-11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Dear Abby: One of the toughest tasks a church faces is choosing a good minister. A member of an official board had watched the pastor search committee reject applicant after applicant for some fault, alleged or otherwise. It was time ...read more

    Our King Jesus Proves He Is Alive Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 25, 2018
     | 7,152 views

    In the days following his resurrection Jesus keeps appearing, eventually over 500 people are witnesses that he is alive. However the most important witness to the resurrection is that all Scripture points to the suffering, but risen, Saviour.

    Message Luke 24:36-49 Our King Jesus Proves He Is Alive When it comes to the importance of the resurrection Paul pulls no punches 14 If Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith. … 17 If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. ...read more

    To Follow Or Not To Follow

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021

     | 1,878 views

    Who do you follower? Two followers of Jesus could be discussing an issue that appears to be allowed in the Bible? An even larger question is what do you do when two pathways are before you??

    The LORD gave us His Word as a guide for us to have a spotless life. There are so many rules and regulations that it is virtually impossible to live on Earth and not break a code here and there. The LORD established forgiveness into His system because He was aware that this would indeed happen. ...read more

    Who Is This Guy? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 9, 2021
     | 1,914 views

    When something new and striking happens, we immediately focus on it. When someone appears unexpectedly and begins to do unusual things, he or she garners our attention. Jesus Christ is such a person.

    Monday of the First Week in Course 2021 About a half-century ago a hit movie was in the theaters called “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.” Robert Redford and Paul Newman played outlaws that were constantly eluding law enforcement.

     | 4,608 views

    The disciples were still in Jerusalem during the evening of Resurrection Day. When the Lord Jesus Christ appeared suddenly, they were terrified! But when they saw His hands and feet, they began to believe HE WAS ALIVE!

    Introduction: On Resurrection Day, the Lord Jesus Christ had walked with Cleopas and another disciple from Jerusalem to Emmaus. The Lord not only walked with them, He also explained the Scriptures about Himself to them and shared a meal with them. After this, He vanished out of their sight and the ...read more

    The Song Of Simeon, At Christmas?

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Nov 10, 2014
     | 3,955 views

    Even in Advent, the song of Simeon, does not appear as being festive; but it is necessary in the build-up to meet with Jesus; and I will warn you just now, it pushes our faith to the limit; but it does provide relieve.

    Welcome Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Today is the first Sunday of Advent and the children this morning will be retiring to the hall to make our Advent wreath and they will bring it into the service after the Intercessions so that the first candle can ...read more

    Not only did shepherds see a light on the night Jesus was born, but God made a star appear to men far away so people everywhere would know that His Son had been born.

    THE STAR & THE WISE MEN Matt. 2:1-12 INTRODUCTION VIDEO: A. HUMOR 1. I came across a collection of letters that children wrote to Santa Claus. Some of them were pretty good. One said, "Dear Santa, you did not bring me anything good last year. You did not bring me anything good the year ...read more

     | 3,250 views

    Mary was a young Jewish virgin who received the surprise of her life one day! The angel Gabriel appeared to her and explained that she had been chosen to be the mother of the Messiah! What happened then?

    Introduction: the first Christmas was important to many people, three in particular. Besides Baby Jesus Himself, there were Mary, His mother after the flesh; and Joseph, chosen by God to be the foster father of the Son of God (what a challenge!). This message focuses on Mary first, because there is ...read more

    Why did Luke chose this post resurrection appearance to record. After all St Paul tells us that at least 514 men saw the resurrected Christ and this doesn't count the women

    A comparison of Christ's sacrifice for our spiritual freedom with the sacrifice of our fallen soldiers for our national freedom. (This sermon is in "outline form." You will need to reformat the layout because of the way it appears on this site.)

    Where Is The Lord God Of Elijah? (1 Of 2)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 5, 2022
     | 2,306 views

    As I read through this passage, it appears that Elijah is testing Elisha. Look at verse 2. He said to Elisha, “...Tarry here, I pray thee; for the Lord hath sent me to Beth-el...”

    But notice Elisha’s response in that same verse, “...As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee...”Then look at verse 4. Elijah seems to test Elisha again. He said, “...tarry here...for the Lord hath sent me to Jericho...” Again, same verse, Elisha responds, “...As ...read more

    God's Anointing Youth Sermon

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 5, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 829 views

    God often chooses unlikely people, seeing beyond their outward appearance and focusing on their hearts. He does this to display His power through our lives as we walk in the anointing and gifting of the Holy Spirit.

    God tells this prophet, Samuel, to go to Bethlehem and anoint one of Jesse's sons as the new king. Samuel sees the oldest son, Eliab, and thinks, "This guy looks like king material." But God's like, "Nope, I don't look at the outside; I look at the heart." So, none of Jesse's seven sons present ...read more

    God Is No Respecter Of Persons

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Feb 6, 2025
     | 180 views

    God’s justice is impartial, and He does not judge based on external appearances, wealth, status, or influence. The Scriptures emphasise that righteousness is rewarded, while wickedness invites judgment, regardless of a person’s position.

    When trials come, the Fourth Man in the fire will appear, to show us that He cares, to turn our situation around with a miracle, and to honor our stand for Him. This message ends with a great story of boldness.

    Today we will spend time with the prophet Jeremiah - the weeping prophet - as he reminds us that God is not through - even when the times appear to be dark. He writes in a bleak time for God’s people.

    A Season of Promises The Promise of His Coming Jeremiah 33:6-18 Introduction This month we will be focused on the season - season of promises. Many faith families regard this time of year as Advent - a time to slow down and experience the season of expectation as we wait. Advent calls us to ...read more
