    Have You Stopped Listening To God?

    Contributed by Roy Fowler on Nov 28, 2020
     | 1,623 views

    What is uncertain is not the “coming” of Christ but our own reception of him, our own response to him, our own readiness and capacity to “go forth to meet him.

    ILLUSTRATION: Speaking of Jesus the Christ: "What is uncertain is not the “coming” of Christ but our own reception of him, our own response to him, our own readiness and capacity to “go forth to meet him.” Quote from Thomas Merton The time between the Hebrew Scriptures and the Greek New ...read more

    We need to be able to transfer what we learn or what we see on Sunday, to what we are doing on Monday!

    Verse 4-let us make here three tabernacles A man was shipped wreaked on a deserted island, by himself and finally after many years he was rescued and the rescue crew looked around and saw three buildings that the man had built and asked him about them.

    Why do so many seem to miss the hour of visitation? Why do we fail to receive the good things God has for us?

    30, January 2004 Dakota Community Church Missing the Boat Introduction: When we take communion I always point this out. Jesus came to the people who were waiting for Him and yet they missed Him. In spite of all the attention grabbing signs, in spite of healings, in spite of miracles, in spite of ...read more

    Everything in the Christian life is based imitating Christ. As Christ-imitators, we need to remember that: Our acts of service imitate Jesus, Our acts of service demonstrate our love, Our acts of service validate our words.

    What Will You Do In The End?

    Contributed by Jimmy Stewart on Nov 15, 2002
    based on 32 ratings
     | 5,523 views

    We are undoubtedly living in the end times, but the question is, as Christians, what are we going to do about it?

    It is obvious by looking at the world today that we are definitely living in the end times. People are talking about it, making movies, and writing books all about the last days. We see prophesies being fulfilled that Jesus and the prophets said would come to pass. But, as the coming of the Lord ...read more

    Do You Want To Be Healed?

    Contributed by Mark Adams on Apr 4, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,736 views

    This is an expository sermon based on John 5, utilizing a narrative style. Sometimes we seek out fake solutions to our problems because perhaps we don’t like the implications of what being healed might require of us.

    Everybody likes to hear stories about people like Dustin Carter. Dustin was born a normal, healthy baby, but when he was 5 years old, he suffered a bacterial blood infection. As a result of this blood infection, most of his limbs had to be amputated. Like anyone else would feel, Dustin first ...read more

    John 9 is a compelling chapter in John’s Gospel. The healing of the man born blind confronts us with our own spiritual blindness. As we read, we are confronted with the same question that Jesus presents him, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?" Jesus, the

    John presents his gospel in much the same way that a lawyer presents evidence in a kind of divine trial. He compels his “jury” to make a decision for themselves about Jesus – “do you believe or not?” The gospel is often divided into two sections – the Book of Signs (chapters 1-12) and the Book of ...read more

    Why Does Your Church Need You?

    Contributed by Perry Anderson on Oct 6, 2013
     | 10,901 views

    We tend to think we go to church only to get, but in truth, we go to church to give. We don't go to church, we are the church and each member is valuable and needed.

    Just as it takes every ligament to hold a physical body together, it takes each member in the body of Christ to do their part in order for the church to be strong and hold together. When each part functions the body grows and stays strong. When a part of the physical body fails to function or is ...read more

    We Need To Commend Ourselves More Often.

     | 4,893 views

    Do we deserve God's commendation for our services to him. Well based on Paul's converts at Thessalonica, I would say we do, because we love to serve the Lord in an age where it is unpopular and irrelevant, and to think of others before our ourselves.

    This sermon was delivered to St Oswald’s in Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 19th October 2014 (a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries). Summary: Do we deserve God's commendation for our services to him. Well based on Paul's converts at Thessalonica, I would ...read more

    Who Do You Trust ?

     | 7,843 views

    This sermon begs us to look at ourselves and decide who we really trust. Are we putting our trust in ourselves or other people or do we put our trust and Hope in God

    We all have to put our trust in someone or something. It might be God, or it might be another person, or it may be material things. We all give some sort of trust to others we trust that the car we are meeting will stay on there side of the road. But that’s not the kind of trust that we are ...read more

    We need to be doing what the Angel could not.

    WHAT THE ANGEL COULD NOT DO Acts 5:12-20 INTRODUCTION: The early church was certainly active at this time. Souls being saved, people being blessed, bodies being healed; and revival spirit was flowing. Note some 3 or 4 things with me by way of introduction. Now verse 12 tells us: And by the ...read more
