    God’s Equation For Peace

    Contributed by Thomas Mccracken on Jan 31, 2012
    based on 14 ratings
     | 9,768 views

    Peace has been aggressively sought after by humanity ever since Adam and Eve were driven from Eden. God offers peace, yet only when certain qualifications are met. His Way + His Will + His Work = His Peace.

    God’s Equation for Peace Hebrews 13:20-21 Introduction: Politician’s promise it, beauty pageant constants propagate it, and world leaders promote it. Humanity has searched for this seemingly elusive precious commodity since Adam and Eve were dragged, kicking and screaming, from the Garden of ...read more

    Render To God The Things That Are God's

     | 12,138 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

    The approved worker for the Lord is busy doing God’s business. What business? 1- God’s worker reminds people of scriptural truth 2- God’s worker correctly handles God’s Word 3- God’s worker avoids anything ungodly

    INTRO.- Did you ever know a “yes man” or “a teacher’s pet”? These such people have been called by other names, which are not so flattering or nice. What’s the idea?

    Walking In God’s Love

    Contributed by Laren Whaley on Feb 15, 2012
     | 9,476 views

    Because God has loved us and received us as one of His own we must move and live in that love. The world ‘s definition of love is not love at all. The world around us always asks what’s in it for me and always centers on self-first, then maybe others.

    Walking In God’s Love 1 Corinthians 13:1 - 13 (NKJV) 1Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, ...read more

    What can keep you and me from being successful or victorious in this life, is when we don’t believe God’s Word!!

    Joshua 1:7-8-Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go.

    based on 29 ratings
     | 21,745 views

    The Bible makes clear the fact that man’s faith & God’s grace are both involved in salvation. For the promise of God’s salvation belongs to the realm of grace & faith, not works.

    ROMANS 4: 16-18 FAITH IN GOD’S PROMISES Paul continues his illustration of Abraham as the supreme Old Testament example of saving faith. He makes clear the fact that man’s faith and God’s grace are both involved in salvation. For the promise of God’s salvation belongs to the realm of grace and ...read more

    The Sabbath reminds us of our need for rest. God gave the Sabbath to Israel and through Jesus God gives us a Sabbath rest as well.

    Richard Swenson wrote a book in the 1990’s entitled, “Margin” in which he describes modern society as so overcommitted and over scheduled that we have no space left for rest.

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Aug 12, 2009
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,621 views

    God is not scrambling about trying to work out His plan or make last minute corrections. When we fumble the ball or tragedy occurs, God’s plan has not slipped a gear. The tragedy is a part of God’s plan for our faith to grow and for His glory.

    Opening illustration: Consider Charles Colson, the aide to Richard Nixon who was sent to jail for Watergate.

    God Is God – And Has Not Changed It has been said by some – “that to properly study mankind you must study a man.” I am not really opposed to this idea – yet I would say – to properly study a Christian – “you must study Christ.” I am aware that Christ is much more lofty than most Christians ...read more

    Abraham overcomes fear with the shield of God’s promises - so can we.

    The more I study scripture, the more I discover that there are no great men and women of God in the Bible. There is only one hero and that is the Lord himself.
