I Am The Resurrection And The Life Series

Jesus: The Source Of Abundant Life

Contributed by Rev. Duraimony Dickson on Feb 12, 2025

Jesus came so that you might have life—true, abundant life. In contrast, Satan's mission is to rob you of that life. As John 10:10 tells us, "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.

New Life For A Dead Man

Contributed by Johnny Carver on Apr 28, 2007

This sermon deals with the born again experience which seems to have lost its place among much of the sermons of our day. Because there seems to be such a need for the "help" type of preaching for the troubled lives of church attenders.

Scripture: John 3:1 – Title: “NEW LIFE FOR A DEAD MAN” Introduction: The title of the message may sound a little shocking, but it couldn’t be truer. In 2:23 we are told that the people’s faith had been awakened by the miracles they saw Jesus perform. In the last few verses of chapter 2 we are ...read more

A Victorious Life Through Christ Series

Contributed by Alis Cerrahyan on Jul 16, 2019

Unless we learn to take full responsibility for our own actions and stop blaming others -including Satan- for our poor choices; we will never be able to come before God with a repentant heart. And that's the most essential element for our salvation.

None of our truth, whether told or untold, is ever hidden from our omniscient Father who knew us before we were conceived; He already knows our last breath on this earth; and every dot in between. Psalm 139:13 reads, ...read more
