     | 2,547 views

  • Delighting In God's Law

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Sep 20, 2020
     | 1,416 views

    God's law is the basis for the psalmist to be blameless, and that is the basis for him to enjoy God's favour. The psalmist respects God's law, relies on it, delights in it, and asks God to teach him it. But can he be blameless? The answer is yes.

    [This talk was quite dependent on PowerPoint slides. I’ve indicated where I used slides with ***] INTRODUCTION Today we’re looking at Psalm 119. One of Psalm 119’s claims to fame is the fact that it’s the longest chapter in the Bible. It’s 176 verses long! It’s way in the lead. In second ...read more

    God offers us hope through the redemption of sin and reconciliation through His Son Jesus Christ.

    "A Ray of Hope" Jeremiah 31:15-22 If you get lost in Brooklyn, New York, and wander into the section called Williamsburg, prepare yourself for a surprise.

    Baptism Sermon Scripture reading: Exodus 3:1-10 I wonder if the children noticed who was present in front of the pulpit today?

    Contributed by John Kapteyn on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 98 ratings
     | 12,807 views

    The Reformation began with Jesus Christ and is to continue even today within the church and within our hearts.

    Introductory Considerations 1. "Today is Reformation Sunday." With these four words I may already have lost many of your listening ears. Why do we need to talk about something that happened 400-500 years ago? We don’t want a history lesson or a theological debate. 2. Message of Reformation not a ...read more

    Contributed by Andrew Stringer on Jul 28, 2007
    based on 8 ratings
     | 6,333 views

    Many people who call themselves Christians today possess few of the characteristics of sheep.

    ARE YOU REALLY A SHEEP? John 10:14-29 Introduction: 1. We will do something a little different this morning. 2. We will turn to another place before we expound this passage! 3. Look with me in Matthew 7:13-23. 4. I find this passage very disturbing. 5. If I read it right, it means that there ...read more

  • Would You Too Reject Him?

    Contributed by John Herrmann on Oct 4, 2002
    based on 44 ratings
     | 6,357 views

    In the parable of the vineyard and the "rejected cornerstone of Christ", we see how an ever near and patient God reveals himself in Creation and redemption -- working through the Holy Spirit to keep us from rejecting him.

    It would seem the vineyard image is appropriate for this time of year. I’ve read that the Napa Valley is expecting a great crush this year. In Amador County, here in California, there is weekend tasting and festivities in honor of the harvest vintage. Maybe some of our people are there right ...read more

    Looking to redefine what ’lost’ is, and how we get lost... based on the back to back parables of Jesus. The Lost Sheep – The one who wanders away… The Lost Coin – The one who just doesn’t know… The Younger Son – The deliberate step The Older Son – The

    Redefining Lostness MARK 2:16-17 When the scribes of the Pharisees saw that He was eating with the sinners and tax collectors, they said to His disciples, "Why is He eating and drinking with tax collectors and sinners?"

  • Pride And Predjudice Or The Waterboy

    Contributed by Jeremy James on Nov 21, 2004
    based on 6 ratings
     | 3,066 views

    How our pride and arrogance keeps us from seeing that our calling in life is to love those around us and share the blessings that we have been given by God. "The Rich Man and Lazarus"

    Placing the Story: condemnation of: wealth equals righteous and poverty equals sin. As we look at this passage by itself it becomes very difficult to figure out what exactly Jesus is talking about. Is Jesus giving us a picture of Heaven and Hell? Is He warning us about being rich? Are we being ...read more

    based on 8 ratings
     | 13,237 views

    The human heart is deceitful and will lead us astray. From the Hymn writer who said, "Prone to Wander, Lord I feel it. Prone to Leave the God I love. HERE'S MY HEART Lord, take and seal it."
