    The Poverty Of Self-Sufficiency Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Mar 24, 2004
    based on 39 ratings
     | 12,258 views

    As we look at the first Beatitude this morning, I wonder if those listening to Jesus wished they had a dictionary with them because it must have seemed like He was speaking a different language.

    The Poverty of Self-Sufficiency I’ve received some wonderful green and gold gifts recently. This Packer headband keeps my ears warm, and this cap announces my allegiance for all to see. This Packer Christmas stocking came filled with Snicker bars; and I even received some “Lambeau loafers” as ...read more

    Have you stood on the edge of possibility, looking at the vast expanse before you and feeling utterly inferior or incompetent for the task? Have you ever wished that you had more to offer?

    Introduction: When was the last time that you found yourself standing at the dead end road of life wondering how you had got there and where God was? Have you stood on the edge of possibility, looking at the vast expanse before you and feeling utterly inferior or incompetent for the task? Have ...read more

    The Evil One

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 17, 2013
     | 4,000 views

    Many do not believe in the devil any more. Many choose not to believe. What does the Bible have to say about him and the destruction he wishes to bring to each of our souls?

    This week a friend of mine posted a video on facebook that showed the results of four teens texting while driving. Three of them died and the last one will never be the same again; mentally or physically. Did they know of the dangers of texting while driving? Did they just ignore the danger ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,353 views

    Paul here goes into some detail about his own call and his aims with the Ephesians believers. It was clearly his fondest wish that all believers understand who we are in Christ.

    Ephesians Chapter 3 Pastor Eric July 27, 2008 (Read verses, then comments.) (1-3) Paul, building upon the closing thoughts of chapter 2, refers to himself as the prisoner of the Lord Jesus Christ for the sake of the Gentiles. Note that Paul did not refer to himself as the prisoner of the Roman ...read more

    Standing Close To The Lightning Strike

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 19, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 18,221 views

    God will get our attention and force us to make choices, despite our desire to avoid decisions or our wish to be secular. When the lightning strikes it may be painful but it will be about grace.

    You can most certainly expect God to attract your attention. I cannot tell you exactly how He will do it, but I do know that He will do it. He will attract your attention. Many of us face a spiritual issue called inattention. Distraction. Inattention. We are not paying attention to what God is ...read more

    Choices!

    Contributed by Johnny Knight on Jan 27, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,636 views

    Sometimes we are overwhelmed by the number of choices we have. At other times, we perhaps may wish we had more choices. In most areas of life, we have a choice.

    CHOICES! Text: Psalm 101:1 Sometimes we are overwhelmed by the number of choices we have. At other times, we perhaps may wish we had more choices. In most areas of life, we have a choice. I wish I could say that we always make the right choice, but we know better than that. When it comes to ...read more

    The Future Of The Nigerian Church

     | 3,169 views

    In the warm up to the presidential election to be held on February 14, 2015 in Nigeria, I wish to call the attention of the Nigerian Church to some scriptural points on what really can be the undoing of a church.

    In the warm up to the presidential election to be held in February 14, 2015 in Nigeria, there is fear expressed from certain quarters of the Nigerian Church as to the emergence of a Muslim candidate who may end up exterminating Christianity in Nigeria or at least prepare the ground for such ...read more

    Playing No Favorites--Like God Does Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 28, 2023
     | 925 views

    Jesus tells us today not just to forgive our enemies, something we heard earlier in the Gospel, but to wish them well, to do good to them, and, yes, to love them.

    Saturday of the First Week of Lent 2023 One of the worst heresies of the past two thousand years, an opinion that keeps coming back with almost predictable regularity, is the error first heard in early times from Marcion. The idea is that the God of the OT was a harsh, vindictive judge, almost ...read more

    What is it that we wish to remind some and inform others concerning Easter Sunday? That it is an opportunity to walk in a new life. It is an opportunity to let go of the past and reach forward to the present. It is a second chance at living.

    The Resurrection: A Second Chance At Living Scripture reference: 2 Corinthians 5: 14 - 17 Introduction Illustrations In the Secret Service A gentleman was in front of a preacher coming out of the church one day.

    We will look at words of wisdom from God’s word today in our process of remaking ourselves daily into the image of Jesus Christ and what manner of Father HE wishes us to be.

    Does Prayer Even Work

    Contributed by Jeff Poor on May 11, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,149 views

    Prayer isn't a wish list. Prayer isn't a formal conversation. Pray is a vulnerable, honest, and raw conversation with God. God doesn't want the information, He wants the conversation.

    Title: Does Prayer Even Work? Text: Matthew 6:5-13 Bottom Line: Prayer isn’t a wish list, it’s the foundation to a relationship. Intro A couple years ago I was asked to be in a wedding in Iowa. An other buddy of mine was also in the wedding and we decided we would fly out a day or two early and ...read more

    Israel Defended Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 4, 2019
     | 3,428 views

    Paul expressed his grief over the fact that most of the Jews were alienated from God. He wished himself “accursed” (Gk. anathema) and that he would be destroyed in place of his countrymen.

    (30) Israel Defended Romans 9:1–5 1 I tell the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit, 2 that I have great sorrow and continual grief in my heart. 3 For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my ...read more

    "Gaudete!” Better Than "Gesundheit!”

    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Dec 14, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,628 views

    “Gaudete!” Better Than “Gesundheit!” 1) Because the Lord’s joy, and not your health, is your strength 2) Because the Lord’s Word, and not man’s pious wishes, is your confidence

    It starts with a tickle, then a quiver, followed by a gulp of air as if you’re getting ready to swim the length of a pool in one go, but then suddenly, violently that air gets expelled in a loud “Achoo!” I don’t like to sneeze. Every time I do, it feels like I pop a blood vessel. That’s why I’m ...read more

    PAID IN FULL I wish that all of my bills said that. That would mean that I would not owe anybody any money. My account with God DOES look like that.

    Good morning. How is everybody? So I hope you had a good Christmas. Take a moment and tell me one gift that you got for Christmas. Responses. “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—“ It is the best gift ...read more
