    To accept the salvation of the cross, you must also accept that blood that flowed on the cross. All to often today, churches are preaching the cross, but forgetting about what God’s son had to endure on the cross for them.

    85% of all Americans believe that Christ was crucified, resurrected, and living in Heaven. -Less then 1/2 of the 85% say they have a personal relationship with Jesus. Why would they believe, but not want to receive - The church of today is one reason (A Big Reason) - We have watered down ...read more

    I preached this sermon at the oridnation of three deacons, but directed more as a charge to the church to be servants as well. We are all called to serve and sometimes we need to take off our bibs and put on our aprons.

    “I Will Be A Servant in the Church” Introduction: Today, we have ordained three men into the position of deacon. Many times as events like this take place we fail to catch and see the meaning of what is taking place. First of all, it is important that we understand that word “ordain” simple ...read more

    based on 6 ratings
     | 2,556 views

    This sermon deals with the born again experience which seems to have lost its place among much of the sermons of our day. Because there seems to be such a need for the "help" type of preaching for the troubled lives of church attenders.

In 2:23 we are told that the people’s faith had been awakened by the miracles they saw Jesus perform. In the last few verses of chapter 2 we are ...read more

He implied that humanity would learn from its experience and improve. His hope was in the ...read more
