    Repent Or Perish

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 18, 2022
     | 2,662 views

    What is Jesus’s teaching about “repent or perish” telling us? Is it not the same as saying choose life or choose death? Today we will talk about tragedy and repentance.

    REPENT OR PERISH Text: Luke 13:1-9 Luke 13:1- 9 At that time, some people who were there told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.  (2)  He asked them, "Do you think that these Galileans were more sinful than all the other Galileans because ...read more

    This sermon addresses the mission of Christians in the world as a royal priesthood.

    THE PECULIAR PEOPLE Text: First Peter 2:2-10 The King James Version of the Bible distinguishes the wording of God’s people, calling us "a peculiar people" as opposed to other versions of the Bible. The Greek word that is used here is peripoiesis which means "possession--- purchased ...read more

    Fishers Of Men (January 22, 2017).

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Aug 14, 2020
     | 5,088 views

    After John the Baptizer was arrested, Jesus began His ministry. Jesus comes in and calls His disciples to be “fishers of men” against the backdrop of John the Baptizer’s arrest.

    FISHERS OF MEN Text: Matthew 4:12-23 Paul Harvey once said, “We’ve drifted away from being fishers of men to being keepers of the aquarium.” (Roy B. Zuck. ed. The Speaker’s Quote Book . Grand Rapids: Kregel Publications, 1997, p. 134). Is he right? Have we become keepers of ...read more

     | 1,578 views

    There is a huge difference between knowing the Name of Jesus and knowing Jesus as your Lord and Savior!

    IS YOUR FOUNDATION SURE? (July 30 2023) Text: Matthew 7:21-29 Matthew 7:21-29  "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven.  (22)  On that day many will say to me, 'Lord, ...read more

    Pardoned And Beyond (September 11, 2022)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Sep 9, 2022
     | 2,180 views

    Paul deals with many of the same things we have all had to deal with before we became a Christian. Everyone has a past, everyone needs a pardon and everyone is called to proclaim the Gospel.

    PARDONED and BEYOND (September 11, 2022) Text: 1 Timothy 1:12 -17 1 Timothy 1:12-17 I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that he considered me trustworthy, appointing me to his service.

    Don’t Ever Forget This (Easter Sunday 2020)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Apr 18, 2021
     | 1,678 views

    We have all had success and failures in life. Yet, without Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior none of it will matter. What will our legacy be? What was the legacy of the disciples and their witness? What will others say about our faith in Jesus Christ?

    DON’T EVER FORGET THIS Text: I Corinthians 15:1 -11 1 Corinthians 15:1-11  Now I would remind you, brothers and sisters, of the good news that I proclaimed to you, which you in turn received, in which also you stand,  (2)  through which also you are being saved, if you hold ...read more

    Good Friday: All of us have ideas about the person of Christ and His work. Because of their presuppositions, the chief priests and Pharisees were unable to see the "truth" that Jesus was and is the long-awaited Messiah and Savior.

    I’ve entitled our message this evening, “One Man Shall Die for All.” We call the day that our Lord died on the cross Good Friday, but there was nothing good about it for Jesus. This day is called “good,” because it’s good for us. In a prophecy of the Messiah, in Isaiah 53:4-5, we read, “Surely, ...read more

    This past August (Robin Williams) we saw how NOT to grieve. So how shall we?

    1 Thessalonians 4:13 Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. 14 We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15 According to the ...read more

    Exploring the nature of evil as a spiritual reality which impacts all of us while affirming the sovereignty of God.

    Title: The Curse of the Weeds Before loading up the van with kids and luggage for vacation, I quickly looked through the lectionary reading for today. I noticed that the parable in Matthew was familiar—I had tackled it once before, a fresh perspective was in order. This fresh perspective hit me ...read more

    Jesus never walks by us, and when He stops our faith will grow if we retell the stories of His touch.

    Introduction: Jesus has traveled to Jerusalem for the Feast of the Booths, which was one of the three festivals when faithful Jews would travel to Jerusalem. The other two are Passover and Shavuot (Pentecost). During the Feast of Booths which is seven days between late October and late November, ...read more

    Who do we say that Jesus is by our words, lives and actions

    Introduction In today’s world we have so much stress put on our identity, who we are, and what is our status in society. How do you respond when someone asks you who are you? The average person responds to that question by telling the other person what they do for a living. We often define ...read more

    The story of Nicodemus helps us see that until the truth of Jesus dawns on us, we remain in the dark.

    Because of Daylight Savings Time, some of you probably feel like you got up an hour early today. Some of you may be here and not even know it because you are not awake yet!

    This is the Sixth in our CSI series looking at Crimes and deaths in the Bible. This week we look at what we can learn from the deaths of Ananias and Sapphira

    It’s one of those bizarre stories in the Bible that make you scratch your head and say: Huhh? The church is seeing astronomical growth, thousands of people are coming to the faith and with that come practical problems and practical solutions. The apostles are working full time to administer and ...read more
