Sermons on Where Was God:

An Active God Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jul 28, 2004

God is very active in the moment to moment lives of those Who know Him in ways in which we are rarely conscious.

An Active God (Romans 8:26-28) 1. God’s providence and planet earth. Our Earth, for instance, is perfectly designed for life. It’s the "just right" size for the atmosphere we need. Its size and corresponding gravity hold a thin, but not too thin, layer of gases to protect us and allow us to ...read more

Friendship With God

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Feb 6, 2006

Prayer is more than just asking God. It is communion between two friends. God seeks friendship with man, for He is an intensely personal God.

The passage we’ve just read today is prayer – when a man meets God and talks to Him. It is, the Bible says, “as a man speaks with his friend” (v.11). We will not fully understand prayer if we think about it only as something to do with asking something from God. Prayer is not just about ...read more

An Unchanging God

Contributed by Andrew Drummond on Mar 17, 2006

Things are rapidly changing around us; from cars to computers to toothbrushes. Is there any solace to be found in a God that never changes?

Our world is more subject to change today than it has ever been in Human history. More information has been produced in the last 30 years than in the previous 500 years. Just recently, one trip of the space shuttle Challenger produced enough information to fill 44,000 books. Ninety percent of all ...read more

The Savior Is God!

Contributed by Efren V. Narido on Mar 24, 2006

Do we really know HOW God saves? Are we giving Him the full appreciation of His saving work?

These words were spoken to the physical Israelites: “For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior… (Isa. 43:3, NIV.) He who made the great claim added: “I, even I, am the LORD, and apart from me there is no savior” (verse 11, NIV). He is no ordinary savior! His Supremacy as ...read more

Wrestling With God

Contributed by Carl Greene on Jul 18, 2009

Jacob wrestles with God and names the place "Peniel," meaning "face of God". Each of us needs our own "Peniel," a place to meet God. God gives us such a place, the Holy Bible.

Introducing: God Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 23, 2009

The Beatitudes (it means "blessing") are probably the most famous words Jesus uttered. They are also among the most mis-understood. To understand the Beatitudes we need to know Jesus person and His mission.

The Sermon on the Mount is perhaps the most famous part of Jesus’ earthly ministry. I think it’s safe to say that more people are familiar with at least parts of this series of sermons than are the account of the cross. In Matthew’s gospel (which is ordered topically more than chronologically) ...read more

Imitators Of God

Contributed by Mark Roper on Mar 3, 2009

To imitate God means to be like him. As far back as Leviticus 11:45 God said, "Be holy, for I am holy."Jesus gave us the starting point for imitating God in the Sermon on the Mount. We need to mourn over our sin with a broken and contrite spirit. When we

Imitators of God Eph 5:1-2 KJV I was reading about some of the dangers that face our young people simply because they imitate what they see.
