    The prophet Haggai gives the returned exiles of Judah a wake-up call because of their complacency and recalls them to faithful service to their God who has done some much for them.

    CONSIDER YOUR WAYS A prominent person, I believe it was Henry Ford, is reputed to have said, "history is bunk". Why he said that, I can’t think, because if we don’t learn from the mistakes of the past, we’re sure to repeat them. That’s the story of the world and is especially true for the ...read more

    Handling Shameful Sin In The Church Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Aug 25, 2015
     | 5,335 views

    Too often churches of today overlook the sin and sinful lifestyle of a person because they are a leader in the community, government, or business. So the Corinthian church needed to wake up and learn something.

    Tonight’s passage is a continuation of last week’s passage. The subject is church discipline. To recap, there was sexual immorality in the church at Corinth. A man was either married to or living with his step-mother. He was known in the church and known in the community. His sin ...read more

    Apostle John in the Spirit on the isle of Patmos having an encounter with Jesus. A message for the church at Sardis to wake up, they appeared unstoppable, while in reality, they were dead and doing nothing of value.

    In light of the fact that the kingdom is coming, what should we do? First, wake up. Second, dress up, put on the armor of light. Third, clean up, put away everything that pollutes and defiles. Fourth, we should grow up.

    ROMANS 13: 11-14 THE COMING KINGDOM [1 Thessalonians 5:1-11] This section refers to the climactic event to which all Christians eagerly look forward, the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus.

    Paul brought in the dimension of time and urges the believers to "wake up, clean up, and dress up" in the light of the nearness of Jesus' return. Let us live with this end in mind and watch what we leave behind.

    Paul has been addressing the conduct of Christians since the start of Rom 12. • It is the life of those who have believed the Gospel that he laid out in Rom 1-11. • The right belief will lead to the right conduct. As followers of Christ living in a paganistic society like Rome, the readers’ ...read more

    Sermon # 6 - No Need To Fear Death Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 6, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 903 views

    Man’s greatest fear is the fear of death, and that’s what gripped everyone aboard the ship that Jonah travelled. Learn how Jesus gives us hope beyond the grave. Also we as individuals and the church we must wake up to fulfill God's purposes in our life time.

    We read in Jonah 1:5, Then the seamen were afraid, and each man cried to his god. (AFV) As we continue this series on how the life of Jonah can be related to the church today, I believe that many of you are blessed through these meditations. The seamen on the ship were filled with dread when the ...read more

    If we will maintain a direction of love by stepping up, join up, pay up, give up, and God up we will never lose our bearings.

    People get so focused on the immediate: work, friends, hobbies, sports, and the busyness of life that they lose focus on the important and wake up one day and realize they left their spouse and kids behind.

    Yes, I’ve cheated on Tiffany: It has happened twice. In 2005 & the first part of 2006 and also in 2009: I’m going to tell you the persons name in a moment. Everyone of you know her.

    This sermon addresses the effect of our "wakes" in our relationships, i.e. how our behavior and attitudes affect those around us in our homes, workplaces, neighborhoods, friendships and extended families.

    I’m so excited about this series we’re starting today. We’ve entitled it No Wake Zone. We’ve done that for a real specific reason. This is a relationship series, but we want to do a visual of what healthy relationships are really like. I think if we could see it first, then we could begin to ...read more
