    Paul’s time on earth was coming to an end. He had fought the good fight, finished the course, and kept the faith. Soon, Paul would be a victim of Nero’s chopping block. Now one of his closest disciples, Demas, has left him.

    This morning I want to talk to you about falling into Satan’s Trap. As we examine our scripture this morning, we find that the Apostle Paul is writing his final letter to Timothy, his son in the Lord. Paul is writing to Timothy from his jail cell in Rome. I suspect that it is wintertime when ...read more

    I borrowed the title from a Sermoncentral contributor because it was so good. But the rest of this sermon deals with sexual immorality and how the Christian needs to walk in a sexually darkened world.

    LIVING A G-RATED LIFE IN AN R-RATED WORLD Let me tell you about a couple I have become familiar with, Josh and Jerusha. These two grew up together in the same neighborhood, you could say. Actually, Josh was a few years older than Jerusha and had the pleasure of watching Jerusha grow from an ...read more

    True communication begins with what God has been trying to tell us for thousands of years. And now, He uses Jesus Christ to portray the truth to us.

    Have you ever miscommunicated your thoughts when trying to convey them to another? Most of us have, and then the following confusion can be very irritating, if not dangerous. Sometimes, miscommunication can be very frustrating. ‘A man called his neighbor to help him move a couch that had ...read more

And like our physical fitness, we seldom are really comfortable with our finances. The goal of this series is to whip us into Financial Fitness. You received two items as a part of ...read more

    If Jesus enters your heart this Sabbath morning because you have left the door even slightly ajar, please, please do not chase Him out when you leave church. Take Him home with you. Don’t force Christ to find other quarters because you refuse to pay the mere pittance He asks of you.

    THE PRICE IS RIGHT JAMES 1:19-27 #thepriceisright INTRODUCTION I should tell you that up front, the sermon that I will share with you this morning is NOT a sermon that I have written. I write all my own sermons each week, but this one is not mine. This one was written for Cold Spring and South ...read more

    Our Christian faith and commitment to the Church and our time spent in the Bible has been weighed and is found wanting. When we find our commitment and loyalty to Christ divided, we fall. Its all ‘writing on the wall.’

It is quite a lot of verses, so I don’t want you to get distracted or bored or lost, but let’s focus well as we read these ...read more

    What it really means for Jesus Christ to control the life of a believer - the presentation of our bodies, the process of the renewing of our minds, and the performance of the Will Of God.
