Sermons on The Sinner:

Deceptive Gold Works Its Penalty – God Is Not Mocked Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 24, 2022

Sin has consequences. It always returns to hurt the sinner. A farmer set out to deceive with gold and over time, became a mental case. We must stand on the ONE solid foundation and contend earnestly for the faith that is under attack. We have a common salvation we must defend vigorously.

DECEPTIVE GOLD WORKS ITS PENALTY – GOD IS NOT MOCKED In 1960 Arnold Long, a missionary to the people of the Australian outback, wrote “The Bushman’s Guide. It contains stories of the outback and of people and was used in outreach. I did meet Arnold once. He was a remarkable man. This is one ...read more

The Lord's Prayer - Part 4 Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jul 24, 2014

This sermon covers, "Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." The main emphasis is on "deliver us from evil." Many Christians boldly and repeatedly boast that, "We are all sinners." So, can God really deliver us from evil (sin) or can't He?

Please continue standing as we read what is most commonly known as “The Lord’s Prayer” Matthew 6:9-13 (KJV) “Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. ...read more

What Is God Really Like? The God Of The Pandemic Or The God Of Love

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Apr 24, 2020

Before blaming God for tragedies, calamities, and pandemics, consider what God is really like. Jesus came to shows every sinner, publican, scribe and pharisee what God is really like. Long before going to calvary and laying down his life, Jesus shared a parable in Luke 15.

Remember The Rooster

Contributed by Neal Gracey on Mar 19, 2016

Sooner or later the cock is going to crow, and if it's like the rooster across the way from my house, it could be...at any time! Like Peter, we are sinners in need of a Savior. But, like Peter, we have a hint that the rooster is going to crow, eventually, no matter what.

Happy "Crowing" Saturday, Everyone! There is a rooster that lives across the road into the valley below on my neighbors farm. That crazy bird will cock-a-doodle-do anytime of the day. What a crazy bird! He reminds me of the lesson this week. This week's Sunday School lesson is from Mark 14. The ...read more

Let God Do The Finger Pointing

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Aug 7, 2023

If finger pointing is impolite and it is so often connected to self-centered, sinful behavior why does God do it? God does this so that when sinners see their lost condition he can point them to the cross of his Son. There forgiveness is found. There salvation and eternal life are offered.

“Finger pointing.” What thoughts do those two words bring to your mind? For the most part they are probably negative thoughts. At a very early age we are taught not to point at people. It’s considered impolite. As we get older we experience finger pointing in many different ways. If we had ...read more

Avoid Harmful Relationships.

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Mar 10, 2024

The Bible doesn't ask us to seek out perfect people, but rather to build relationships with fellow sinners who have experienced God's transformative love. At the same time, Scripture does provide guidance on setting boundaries and being mindful of the company we keep.

2 Timothy 2:22, is a great example of this balance. It encourages us to flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, while also seeking out relationships with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart. This reminds us to prioritize relationships that promote ...read more

Go! And Understand God's Heart Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on May 22, 2025

Some Old Testament verses are often misunderstood, or used to mock Scripture, or paint God as outdated or cruel. But when rightly understood, these verses don’t repel us—they reveal something glorious: the holiness, justice, and mercy of our God.

True Freedom In Christ

Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 7, 2010

Christian freedom is from God’s Law condemning you and freedom from sin’s bondage. But it’s also freedom to receive God’s gifts in worship and freedom to stand in His presence as a sinner, yet fully righteous because of Christ Jesus.

Intro We Americans revel in our freedom. We delight in our freedom to do what we want, when we want. We believe it’s our right to enjoy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. But of course, we know that political freedom is always conditional. I am not free to interfere with your ...read more

The Trap Series

Contributed by Sean Harder on Sep 21, 2012

We live in a fallen world full of sinners saved or not, who are all going to say and do things that hurt or offend us at some point. Not one of you in here has not done so yourself. In other words Jesus is saying expect it, why should you expect otherwise

“It is impossible that no offences should come” (Lk 17:1) The word for offence is literally where we get our word scandal from, and Jesus is making a very clear point that scandals, offences, temptations to sin will come. “But woe to the one through whom they come”. ...read more
