    based on 58 ratings
     | 5,061 views

    The way Jesus spent His days on earth after his resurrection were quite different from His ministry before. we consider how and why it was.

    1. Tonight we pause to consider the empty tomb. 2. As we said this morning the resurrection was of the utmost importance to the early church. 3. Easter was not just that day that Christ became alive, but the beginning of new life for His disciples and the promise and seal for new life for all who ...read more

    Contributed by Eddie Snipes on Apr 11, 2002
    based on 65 ratings
     | 10,365 views

    The Bible commands us to test all things. Why does the Bible command us to judge while warning us not to judge? This study takes a deeper look at this topic.

    Are We to Judge? In recent years there has been a shift in the church concerning the idea of judging. If we attempt to point out something that is scripturally wrong we will frequently hear comments like ’judge not, lest you be judged’. Does the Bible tell us that we are not allowed to judge ...read more

    On the cross Jesus said "Father , into your hands I commit my spirit." Why did Jesus have to say this and what do thee words teach us.

    Introductory Considerations 1. One of hardest things for us to do is to let go or give up that which means the most to us. 2. As parents we find it so hard to let go or give up our children when they leave home or get married. As a husband or wife we struggle with giving up our spouse when we see ...read more

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 34 ratings
     | 6,710 views

    Why do some people misuse their privileges? In this passage, Paul gives a historical survey of how Israel misused, abused and failed to take advantage of their God given privileges.

    Illustration:Complacency is a blight that saps energy, dulls attitudes, and causes a drain on the brain. The first symptom is satisfaction with things as they are. The second is rejection of things as they might be. "Good enough" becomes today’s watchword and tomorrow’s standard. Complacency ...read more

    The Responsibility Of Elders In The Church

    Contributed by Steve Hereford on Aug 25, 2006
    based on 11 ratings
     | 4,680 views

    In the Scriptures, Pastors are referred to as "bishop, elder, and overseer." Why are they referred to in this way. In this message, Pastor Steve will examine these and more terms as he talks about the responsibility of elders in the church.

    We have completed our look at what elders are to be and now we’re looking at what elders are to do. In doing that, I would like to define the term that is found in 1 Timothy 3:1. It is the term translated "bishop." The term "bishop" is not a good translation because "it carries modern ...read more

    Committing A G-Rated Marriage Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 22, 2006
    based on 44 ratings
     | 37,570 views

    My original premise for this sermon was "strong Christian marriages are built upon the commitment the Christian has to their marriage" - but I don’t believe that anymore... find out why.

    OPEN: In our series of building a G-rated home in an R-rated world, one of the things we need to realize is that much of what we’ve come to believe about marriage has come from those who teach an “R-rated” view of how married people ought to think. God’s view of marriage is far different than this ...read more

Humility has to do with knowing and doing God’s will. It is responding God’s call, obeying God’s Word, and giving attention to God’s promptings. So in ...read more
