    Who Is Jesus? Series

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jun 23, 2024
     | 1,228 views

    Being born again is not about one’s lineage, religious affiliation, or philanthropic deeds; it requires a total surrender of the heart to Christ, who purchased our redemption with His life. Therefore, I appeal to you as one of Christ’s ambassadors, be reconciled to God before His Son returns!

    Who is Jesus? John 8:48-58, 4:1-42 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 When Jesus addressed the people, saying, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life," His statement stirred significant ...read more

    "The Return Of The King Of Kings”

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Nov 21, 2023
     | 1,314 views

    A Sermon for Christ the King Sunday. The Jesus story does not begin in Bethlehem, nor does it end in Jerusalem. Revelation is about the Cosmic war between "good and evil" ...much like the Disney movie "The Lion King".

    In Jesus Holy Name November 26, 2023 Text: Revelation 19:11-13,16 Christ the King Sunday Redeemer “The Return of the King of kings” Leonard Sweet in his book: “Jesus, A Theoraphy” writes: The Jesus story does not begin in Bethlehem nor Nazareth. It ...read more

    The Church Of Thyatira: The Consequences Of Appeasing Jezebel

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 23, 2023
     | 1,352 views

    Thyatira was the smallest of the seven cities mentioned in Revelation, Chapters 2 and 3. It is also the city about which little is known. Yet, it is to this church that Jesus addresses His longest letter.

    Thyatira was founded by the Macedonian conqueror Alexander the Great some 300 years before the birth of Christ. The name Thyatira means "unceasing sacrifice". It more than likely received this name because it was a military "buffer city", located some 40 miles southeast of ...read more

    How many today chase after the temporary “bread” of this world — possessions, achievements, popularity — and still find themselves spiritually starving?

    Go! And Never Hunger Again - John 6:35 Introduction: The Hunger of the Human Heart “Jesus replied, ‘I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry again. Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.’” — John 6:35 (NLT) Have you ever noticed how much of our lives revolve around ...read more

     | 270 views

    Paul repeated his caution against false teachers. They teach the wrong doctrine, driven by wrong motivation, produce the wrong conduct and seek gain from their belief.

    1 Timothy 6:3-5 The Truth Matters RECAP: Paul has been talking about relating to different groups in the church (5:1-6:2). o Treating older men as fathers, older women as mothers, younger men as brothers, and women as sisters. o Caring for the widows properly. ...read more

    Paul’s life was full of ups and downs: He was a proud man, a humbled man and a new man.

    LIFE’S UPS AND DOWNS Acts 9:1-19 INTRO.- ILL.- At a commuter train station a policeman noticed a woman driver leaning over her steering wheel in evident discomfort.

    A willingness to speak the truth, even if that truth is not popular, is a great virtue.

    One of my favorite stories is The Emperor's New Clothes. It is the tale about an Emperor who was swindled by a supposed tailor. The man claims to sew a new, special suit for the Emperor. It is special because only those who are wise will see the clothes, while those who are foolish will find them ...read more

    Stairway To Heaven Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 4, 2001
    based on 71 ratings
     | 7,249 views

    The beatitudes can be understood sequentially .. as stairsteps to "perfection" (Matt. 5:48). The first four lift us to fellowship with God; the other four bring us back down to the reality of ministry with needy people. This sermon was delivered using a ladder as a "prop".

    When Stanley Kubrick made the movie “2001: A Space Odyssey”, he guessed that by this time we would be flitting back and forth in outer space, visiting other planets and seeing things never before seen by human beings. The movie suggested that those who would be alive in the year 2001 would go on ...read more

    Faith When Your Future Looks Bleak Series

    Contributed by Rick Duncan on Jan 13, 2003
    based on 49 ratings
     | 15,843 views

    The fact that we live in time means that we tend to worry about the future. In this talk, we will examine some of God’s His attributes that can help us face an uncertain future. When we get to know God, we find greater hope for facing life’s challenges.

    The pessimist mainly complains about the wind. The optimist simply expects it to change. The realist wisely adjusts the sails. This is a talk for the optimist who just expects things to get better, but rarely is willing to take action. So, the future never really gets brighter. And it’s a talk ...read more

    Christians need to know that commitment to God also includes commitment to our country. Somewhere along the way, we have lost that.

    Commitment to Country Many people in our country uphold the belief that our founding fathers had no religious heritage in their lives at all. Most of our founding fathers were either deists or atheists. When they wrote the Constitution they wrote it with the intent in mind to keep God out of our ...read more

     | 6,129 views

    Why do Christians emphasize the importance and centrality of Jesus? Why is there no compromise?

    INTRODUCTION: It’s been said: Why do you Christians place so much emphasis on Jesus? Why are you so “intolerant”? Why can’t you be more accepting and admit that other religions can also know God? Why can’t you Christians believe that people from other religions can be just as morally good as ...read more
