Sermon # 4 - The Power Of The Early Church Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 30, 2023

The early church was dynamic and turned their world upside down because they possessed certain characteristics. If we want to see revival in our churches today, we too must follow their example.

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 21, 2023

Do we find ourselves complaining and murmuring about many things? Why do we do so, and how can we stop doing this? This sermon will help us examine ourselves in the light of God’s word.

If we as a church today desire to resemble the early church, and if our aspiration is that people should be added in great numbers, then it is only appropriate that we not only evaluate ourselves in the light of God’s word, but also investigate to see what the early church did differently that made ...read more

First In Everything! (A Christmas Sermon)

Contributed by David Mende on Dec 1, 2018

Christ deserves the first place in all things: in our lives, in our families, in our time, in our conversations, in our studies, in our mission and ministry, in our jobs and businesses, in our decisions, and in everything! I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

INTRODUCTION (SECURE ATTENTION) & BACKGROUND OF THE PASSAGE: PRAY before starting the sermon. We live in a pluralistic society and thus presenting the uniqueness of Christ is a great challenge.

New Year Sermon: Life Of Peter

Contributed by Sunitha Justin on Dec 30, 2018

Peter was willing to lay down his life for Jesus. The same Peter who once said to Jesus ‘You are Christ, the Son of the Living God’ now says, ‘I do not know this Man of whom you speak!’ What made Peter to fail Jesus?

Once a man died & went to the gates of heaven. AS he was about to enter in to heaven, Peter stands by the gates and refuses to let him in. Peter says.. tell me why I should let you into heaven. You list out your reasons. I will score you. And If you score 100 points, then I will let you ...read more

A Warning To Israel: Peter’s Sermon Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 8, 2017

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Jul 2, 2016

What Boaz did for Ruth is a vivid illustration of what Jesus Christ did for you and me on the cross. We, the near kinsman, cannot save ourselves, so we take off our shoe and give it to Christ.
