    Pleading The Blood

    Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 12, 2021
     | 5,129 views

    To “Plead the Blood” means to speak of the blood in prayer to God, to claim it as a protective shield against the enemy, or even as an offensive weapon against spiritual forces.

    PLEADING THE BLOOD Rev. 5:9; 12:11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood. “Now class,” she said, “if I stood on my head, the blood would run into it and I would turn red in the face, right?” “Yes ma’am,” the class murmured. 2. “Then why is it, ...read more

    “And beginning at Moses and the prophets.” Jesus began to teach the two from the Old Testament about Himself. That means that Jesus began in Genesis all the way to the book of Malachi giving Scripture about His coming and death. That means that Jesus was

    Unity in Spirit occurs as the whole body matures and disunity happens as we let the immature wreck havoc. Speaking the truth in love means words of exhortation. Unity comes as Christ is exalted. Unity means each member serving the team.

    Every Christian has at least 3 fathers...their biological/legal father, the Father and church fathers. Thsi sermon explores what it means to be loved by the Father, how to relate to our earthly fathers and what it means to be a Godly father.

    Someone once said Any fool can be a Father, but it takes a real man to be a Daddy!! Another person says A father carries pictures where his money used to be. Mark Twain said When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I ...read more

    A Christian is to pursue righteousness, which means giving both to men and to God their due; at faith, which means loyalty and reliability which both come from trust in God; at love, which is the utter determination never to seek anything but the highest

    A perspective on Mark 8: 31-38. St. Mark points out in his Gospel that there is another way to glory and that is the way of Christ. Therefore, what does the ‘way of Christ’ mean, and what does being a disciple mean ?

    Mark 8: 31-38 The Road To Victory Nobody enjoys the pain of losing. We long for glory and the freedom from being a plain person living a plain life.

    Friends In High Places Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 18, 2014
    based on 15 ratings
     | 37,667 views

    What impressed Jesus in this story was the faith of the men who'd brought their friend to him - a friend who was crippled and lived in a low place of life. The phrase is "Jesus saw their faith." What does that mean? And what can it mean to us?

    A few years back, Garth Brooks came out with a popular Country and Western song called: “I’ve Got Friends In Low Places” How many of you have ever heard the song? (when most of them raised their hands, I stage whispered: “Pagans”) It has a catchy tune, but it is NOT a ...read more

    Render To God The Things That Are God's

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 11, 2013
     | 12,210 views

    Jesus says, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and to God the things that are God's" (Matt 22:21). Most sermons on this verse deal with the first part of this verse, but what does the second part mean? What does it mean to render to God?

    MAIN TEXT: Matt 22:15-22 (parallels in Mark 12:13–17 and Luke 20:20–26) The Jews were desperately seeking to discredit Jesus, because within the context, He was speaking parables against them. They would stop at nothing to do so. Within the context of this verse, various groups ask Him ...read more

    17. The Kingdom Parables – The Fifth – The Hidden Treasure – Part 1 Of 4 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 14, 2025
     | 74 views

    Today we begin the fifth Kingdom Parable, the Treasure Hidden in the Field. It is most interesting and we depart from the usual, accepted meaning of this parable. It really has a very lovely meaning, which we explore over four messages.

    17. The Kingdom Parables – The Fifth – The Hidden Treasure – Part 1 of 4 This message is in 4 parts and it is awkward to break it up as it is one whole. I hope it flows well for the reader. [A].

    In the parable of the Minas, or what I am calling, “Minas and Me,” we are looking at the meaning behind the parable and the minas Jesus used as an example. And what the parable says, and what the minas mean, will define our mission until Jesus returns.
