    The First Christians

    Contributed by John White on Feb 25, 2006

     | 4,778 views

    As we examine this passage it is easy to see three outstanding things about these who were first called Christians. They had made a CHOICE for Christ. They had been CHANGED by Christ. They were accepting a CHALLENGE for Christ.

    The First Christians Acts 11:19-26 "Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only. And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they were ...read more

    What was the perspect of Joseph and Mary to the "Good News"

    Acknowledgement – I found great value in a Christmas Sermon series by Darren Ethier – A fellow contributor to this site. His sermons are called “Christmas Perspectives Series.” Are you talking to Me? Luke 1:26-40, Matthew 1:18-24 Perspective is an interesting thing. What you or I see is ...read more

    The Gift Of Tongues Series

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Jul 20, 2004
    based on 37 ratings
     | 5,171 views

    This is a Scriptural examination of the gift of tongues. The Word of God defines the gift as well as describes its purpose, proper usage and active duration within the Church.

    Of all the miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit, none has provoked more interest and fascination than that of the gift of tongues. This is not only true of the last one hundred years, with the advent of Pentecostalism and the Charismatic Movement, but even in the 1st Century as is evidenced by the ...read more

    The Third Day He Rose Again From The Dead Series

    Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Aug 20, 2004
    based on 16 ratings
     | 14,886 views

    This sermon suggests seven consequences if the resurrection of the dead is false. But, because the resurrection of the dead is true, we have hope!

    Introduction As we continue our series in The Apostles’ Creed I would like to examine today what it means that Jesus rose from the dead on the third day. Please listen as I recite the Apostles’ Creed: I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, ...read more

    A New Kind Of Righteousness Series

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jan 30, 2005
    based on 39 ratings
     | 7,395 views

    Jesus’ new kind of righteousness is based on: 1. Internals rather than externals. 2. Transformation rather than avoiding transgressions. 3. A relationship rather than rules.

    Perhaps you have seen it. It is a bumper sticker which displays the slogan: “Christians Aren’t Perfect, Just Forgiven.” It is a catchy phrase, the only problem is that it misrepresents the Christian life. Is that all we are, “just forgiven”? Is there no more to it than that? Do we, in the ...read more

    Siomon the Pharisee wanted to prove Jesus a charlatan and a fake. He invited Him for a meal at his house to prove his point, only to find that Jesus was real and he, simon, was the fake.

    Receiving The Word Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Dec 29, 2008
    based on 65 ratings
     | 26,540 views

    Jesus is addressing those who think they believe, who think they follow God. They had the notion that they were children of God, but had never yielded to Him the depth of allegiance that is at the core of real belief. It is a dangerous spiritual state.

    JOHN 8: 37-47 RECEIVING THE WORD [OF GOD] [James 1:19-26] Jesus here is continuing to addresses those who think they believe, who think they follow God. They had the notion that they were children of God, but had never yielded to ...read more

    In our text, let’s take a look at Saul, the kind of man he was and how he came to accept Christ. Saul was: 1- A mean man 2- A humbled man 3- A new man 4- A preaching man

    INTRO.- Did ever have a conversion experience? That is, being converted from the Cubs to the Cardinals? Or from Ford to Chevrolet? Or from McDonald’s to Burger King? Etc.

    God’s help for anger

    Last week we began our series “Victory in Jesus,” to help us realize that through Jesus Christ we have been given victory over sin and the power of evil. Unfortunately even though we have this victory we still struggle with temptation and desires of the flesh. I firmly believe that God wants us ...read more

    Caged Courage Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 2, 2008
     | 4,769 views

    We can unleash our courage if we know who we are and what we are about, and if we have a proper perspective on our relationships.

    Most of God’s creatures are in some sort of cage. Animals that appear to run wild are not all that free; they have migratory patterns and other restraints on where they can go. They are caged, even when that cage is not visible. And what that cage does to their courage! The birds of the air, ...read more

    Obedience Works! Series

     | 34,726 views

    In one sense, the remnant was just like us--they had free access to the Word of God. God had just spoken His Word to them through Haggai and Zechariah. God’s Word was available--what were they going to do with it? What are we going to do with it?

    1. Obedience was immediate 2. Obedience was inspired 3. Obedience was inclusive 4. Obedience was investigated Imagine if you will, not having access to a Bible. Throughout history, that’s the way it’s been for most people. In the early church, the Bible consisted of the Greek translation of ...read more

    No one slept well that night in Jerusalem  Caiaphas, the high priest, the one who rent his clothes when Jesus supposedly blasphemed by saying “He was the Son of God” tossed and turned  Everything was going according to plan, they had got permission from Pilate to kill him, and those ...read more
