The Preaching Of The Cross Series

Contributed by Jonathan Mcleod on Apr 12, 2005

Paul reminds the Corinthians of his manner of preaching when he came to their city. His example is an excellent one for all present-day preachers.

“The foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom” (1:25). Of course God is never foolish. But to the human mind, He appears to be foolish. Man says, “The God of the Bible does not follow our wisdom; therefore He must be foolish, He must not be believed.” · That God saves people who put their ...read more

Thanksgiving For The Spread Of The Gospel Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Nov 2, 2005

The Church that receives the Gospel has a responsibility to pass it on. The Church that passes on the gospel must first embody it. It’s no use speaking the words if the actions that go with the words don’t agree.

Today we start a new series, on Paul’s first letter to the Thessalonians. This is probably the first letter Paul wrote, although the date of Galatians could be either a few years before or after the date of this letter. In any event, it seems to have been written while Paul was in Corinth. You’ll ...read more

No More Sea

Contributed by Jerry Carr on May 5, 2001

A sermon describing why John on the Isle Of Patmos describing the new Heavens and New Earth said there was no more sea. Why No More Sea??

I believe to understand what John is talking about we need to lay a little ground work. You see when God created the Heavens and the Earth, He created a perfect place for man. We find when man willfully disobeyed God and ate of the forbidden tree in Gen. 3:1-21, that God placed a curse upon ...read more
