    Passionate About Holiness Series

     | 5,815 views

    To be Holy is to be set apart. Not “Holier than Thou”, not religious, but Holy in God’s sight. Are we set apart? To be set apart is to be a Christ-like example to those around us.

    What do we mean when we say something is Holy? Look at your Bible. It says “Holy Bible.” What makes it Holy? The land of Israel is called “The Holy Land.” The city of Jerusalem is called “The Holy City.” Why? There is a quality about all three that they share in common, They all belong to ...read more

    In Luke 19:1-10 Jesus’ willingness to be present to Zacchaeus ends up being an act of evangelism. His encounter with his Savior changes his life. Is there ever anyone beyond the reach of God’s grace. The answer is "No!"

    Luke 19:1-10 “The Rich Little Man” By: Ken Sauer, pastor of East Ridge United Methodist Church, Chattanooga, TN Poor Zacchaeus! He wants to see Jesus but he can’t. He’s a small man, and he can’t see through the crowd. So, he climbs a tree. Poor Zacchaeus!... …or is he? Luke tells us ...read more

    Slavery Is Freedom Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Mcleod on Sep 4, 2007
    based on 15 ratings
     | 42,933 views

    Since everyone is a slave—either to sin or to God—it’s best to choose the slavery that gives the best results.

    The Issue: “What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means!” (v. 15; see v. 14). If God loves us whether we sin or not, then why not continue to sin just as much as we please? God saves people not by law (through works) but by grace (through faith). To live ...read more

    Following Jesus can be difficult, but all who choose this path will be greatly rewarded in the end.

    Many people’s attitude about following Christ is “What can I get?” not “What can I give?” They view Christianity as only a free ticket to heaven. But what did Jesus teach about discipleship? Read Matthew 8:34-38. “If anyone would come after me” means “If anyone wants to be my disciple (in other ...read more

    Third in a patriotic sermon series.

    Paul and Silas were ministering in the city of Philippi when trouble befell them. It seems that the work they were doing was perceived by some to be a threat to their business, so they had them arrested, flogged, and imprisoned.

    Funeral sermon for Mary Henry, aged 101, prayer warrior and Bible student, who, like the Biblical Mary, could accept whatever the Word taught her.

    Submission is not subservience. Humility is not the same thing as low self-esteem. In fact, it takes a strong and certain heart to be submissive and not subservient, to be humble and not cowardly. If ever there was a strong and certain heart, that was Mary Henry. She knew how to submit to all ...read more
