    Are We Worth It! Jesus, His Encounters (7) I Am Jesus – Message 35 For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors.

    There are six truths, six values the church must hold, proclaim, and demonstrate so that others can experience God’s freedom.

    Our county will turn 226 on Thursday and I asked myself, “What would Washington, Jefferson, Adams, and others think of this country almost 226 years after they wrote and approved the Declaration of Independence?

    A sermon to share with the congregation the need for serious and steady prayer concerning our church’s annual budget and the giving of the church.

    The internet is a wonderful source of information; although some is trivial, some useless, some is motivational, and some mind-numbing. Just for fun I went to a site called "Global Rich List." On this site there is a block where you insert your annual income, click on another button and it will ...read more

     | 3,049 views

    I am a Christian because of the mysterious movement of the spirit of God in my life, the encouragement and teaching of my parents and my response to the void that only conscious discipleship of Christ could fill. This only begins the story!

    Why I am A Christian The picture on the front of the pew bulletin sums up the journey before us. There is the central image of the cross with several symbols of holy Week. The palms are for the triumphal entry of Christ into Jerusalem as the King riding on a colt rather than in a chariot. The ...read more

    1- We love because of Him - motivation 2- We love because of His love - demonstration 3- We love because of His first love - inauguration

    INTRO.- Because, because, because. There is always a “because” about things in life. We do this or that because of something else. ILL.- A bumper sticker read: I owe, I owe, so it’s off to work I go! So very true. What’s your because? Why do you do what you do? Why ...read more

    Lenten thoughts as we contemplate the sacrifices we make for Christ and compare those to the sacrifices he has made for us.

    In the lesson that we have read there were huge crowds of people following Jesus. They were listening to his sermon, hanging on his every word. Some of them were listening intently betting their souls on him and still others were listening to him and waiting for him to talk himself right into a ...read more

    Your perception of God powerfully and profoundly shapes your life as a believer

    Introduction “We believe in God.” That is how the second article of the Shiloh Bible Church doctrinal statement begins. Now, that might seem like a rather simplistic and innocuous statement. After all, it’s not uncommon for people to believe in God. But in reality that is a very profound and ...read more

    Why Are There So Many Hypocrites In Church? Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,564 views

    Many skeptics use Christian hypocrites as an excuse for rejecting Christ. In this sermon, we make the distinction between sinners and hypocrites. Everyone in church is a sinner, but not everyone is a hypocrite.

    Introduction: A. One day Robert Redford, the famous actor, was walking through a hotel lobby, when a woman recognized him and ran over to him. 1. With great excitement, she gushed, “Are you the real Robert Redford?” 2. As the doors of the elevator closed, he replied, “Only when ...read more

     | 5,231 views

    Make no mistake - we are soldiers for Christ. As soldiers, we have a duty to do what He has told us to do: Love & pray for our enemies - including those of the Islamic faith.

    It is fitting that we start this sermon by coming to an understanding of just who we are. Put in its simplest terms, we are soldiers of Jesus Christ. No Christian should ever doubt that. And, as soldiers, we must have certain knowledge and perform certain duties. 2 TIMOTHY 2:3 states, ‘Endure ...read more

    What Are We To Do When The Brook Dries Up?

     | 1,621 views

    How many Christians have hit a "dry patch" during their ministry or walk with the Lord, and often we could not understand the reasoning why this has happened?

    We could have called the title to this message “When in Drought, Do Not Doubt.” In the previous chapter, we learn that Ahab is now king of Israel. Unfortunately, he was worse than all the other kings before him. Each king prior to Ahab became worse than the one before. Ahab married Jezebel who led ...read more
