    There are many in the world right now who claim to be Apostles. It is not for me to say who is and who isn’t, but we can see what the hallmarks of true and false Apostles are from the Scriptures.

    Many claim to have the truth, but Paul proclaims that there is only one “gospel—good news” and that is God’s love and grace in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus.

    Galatians 1:1-12 “Only Grace” INTRODUCTION One of the greatest movies of all time—at least for the critics—is “The Wizard of Oz.” We all know the story of Dorothy and Todo, her dog, who want to get home to Kansas. They are joined by a scarecrow who wants a ...read more

    Who are we? Those who claim Christ are promised so many things, and yet do we stand upon the pormises? This sermon speaks loudly about who we are.

    All that we have and own belongs to God. We owe our lives to Him. We are His stewards. God makes certain claims on our money through His word.

    Jesus makes the claim that his body and blood are our food and drink if we would live. A look at John 6 helps us see deeply into the meaning of life and suffering and joy.

    (The audio of this sermon includes reading John 6 as well as other important content not in the notes) In Greek mythology, King Tantalus was punished in the underworld by being chained in a lake. Its waters reached to his chin but receded whenever he bent down to satisfy his burning thirst. Over ...read more

     | 9,495 views

    A major problem in our world today is religion. In fact, lots of people are turned off to God because of religion. Many people will not consider the claims of Christ because of religion. Religion is a problem.

    Religion Is Not Enough Romans 2:17-29 17 But if you bear the name “Jew” and rely upon the Law and boast in God, 18 and know His will and approve the things that are essential, being instructed out of the Law, 19 and are confident that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a ...read more

    Restoration, is still paramount in the deep south, in a diaspora, that practiced redistribution of wealth and sinned against God, when they took, from their neighbors, and falsely claimed lands and properties that did not belong to them.

    Lord, I Clearly See, Restore To Me “Then it shall be, because he hath sinned, and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he took violently away, or the thing which he hath deceitfully gotten, or that which was delivered him to keep, or the lost thing which he found,” ...read more

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Mar 21, 2015
     | 4,856 views

    Jesus claimed that his death would draw people to God because he made the ultimate sacrifice. He gave his life for us, and that’s a powerful truth.

    Good morning boys and girls! How many of you have had to do something that wasn’t easy to do? What do you think is the hardest thing we would ever have to do? Well, one of the hardest things we have to do is to be a follower of Jesus. Following him is one of the best things we can do ...read more

    How can we know when worship is real? Claiming to worship and real worship are not necessarily the same thing. Sometimes our worship might look good, but not mean anything to God.

Aim: I want the listener to have a higher opinion of God and worship Him more deeply. INTRODUCTION: Our text today gives us a picture of what worship in heaven looks like. ...read more

    This sermon looks at the rebellion of some against the church, God’s man and God himself. Many times people claim athority that is not given to them by God, yet they try to take it anyway.

    MINE, MINE, MINE Text: Numbers 16:1-35 Ill: Bill Cosby—Joke about kids fighting over a toy---“Mine, Mine, Mine” ---“I don’t care about justice, I Just Want Peace” Unfortunately, that’s the attitude many churches have today, They just want peace regardless the cost.

     | 7,232 views

    How is church relevant? Take Jesus to church. Confront Evil. Claim the Power of Jesus to transform. The authority and power of Jesus amazed everyone in the synagogue of Capernaum, and it makes church relevant today.

    GOING TO CHURCH WITH JESUS—Mark 1:21-28 We live in a time of declining church attendance. One reason is busyness; Sunday mornings are consumed with youth sports, catching up on the laundry or the lawn, or just chilling out after a busy week. Another reason might be that going to church is not as ...read more

    Our Sovereign LORD uses His word and the guidance of the Holy Spirit to get us to stop and consider that the walk we claim to have with Him sometimes needs an honest diagnosis and correction.

    The Scriptures are harmonious. That is, they are all woven together without discrepancy or contradiction in God's communication with His creation. He does not send "mixed messages", nor does He have to add or delete anything that has been presented in the Word (2 Timothy 3:16-17; ...read more
