The Cross Of Jesus Christ

Contributed by Samuel M on Sep 13, 2023

Whatever we lost at the Mankind’s fall is very less in comparison to the failure or negligence to receive or experience the vast riches available at the Cross of Jesus Christ. The treasures available and accessible at the Cross are far larger than those in the Garden of Eden.

Worshipping Jesus

Contributed by Greg Johnson on Dec 30, 2007

God’s ability to draw us to Jesus is awesome. Our response to God drawing us to Jesus is what differentiates a Christ follower from those that do not follow Him. Our response includes the use of our time, talent and treasure.

The Stark Contrast Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Dec 5, 2011

The contrast between the old nature and the new couldn't be more stark as we finish up our study in Paul's letter to the Galatians. The question we all have to face is: where is our treasure, in this legalistic age, or in God's kingdom?

Galatians is all about the contrast between the old nature and the new, legalism and Spirit-life. As we finish up the book today we’re going to see that contrast in stark relief so let’s look for it as we finish chapter 6. As we talked about the fruit of the Spirit in chapter 5, we saw ...read more

Don’t Worry, Be Happy

Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 4, 2015

It is not in satisfying our craving to have more and more that we have abundant life. No, it is in serving God and loving others as we love ourselves that abundant life is gained and lived. When we give, we show that Christ is our treasure.

What do we really need? Our society is based on acquisition of things, especially wealth. We are concerned about what we do not have, especially people who are considered to be “have not”. Jesus is saying that it doesn’t matter how hard we try to get things, we can’t ...read more

Communion Meditation No. 2: Common Everyday Things Series

Contributed by Herman Abrahams on Nov 27, 2004

Common, everyday things often take on special meanings. A letter becomes a treasure when it is the last one from a loved one. In similar fashion, Jesus took common, ordinary elements—unleavened bread and the fruit of the vine—and made them special.

Two Masters, One Heart Series

The Magi's Sign

Contributed by D Marion Clark on Oct 5, 2016

Christmas is also about the gifts we are to offer in return, not to earn God's favor, but like the magi it is worth a life’s journey to follow whatever destinations may be given us to worship and to give our treasures to our Savior and our King.

Matthew 2:1-12 The Magi’s Sign 12/8/02 D. Marion Clark Introduction “Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are.” At least that is everyone’s concern about the star of Bethlehem. Of all the elements of the Christmas story, the visit of the magi who ...read more

Contributed by Ken Mckinley on Aug 19, 2019

This is the 20th sermon in a series we've been doing on John's Gospel. In this sermon we focus on seeking Jesus as He is the greatest treasure, the only meaningful gift, not necessarily what He gives us, but He, Himself.

The Sheep And The Goats

Contributed by Vicki Williamson on Sep 6, 2019

During His time on earth Jesus spoke to the multitudes in stories to convey a spiritual truth about God and His Kingdom. Away from the crowds His disciples turn all their attention to Jesus. He explains to them that the Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure.

At a time before Jesus went to the cross He sat on the Mount of Olives with His disciples. In a private moment with them, they asked about the end of the age and how to inherit the kingdom. Consequently Jesus shared with them the things that will take place and the sign of His coming. He talked ...read more
