    This sermon deals with Paul’s thorn in the flesh. We all have our thorn in the flesh. How will we react to the pain?

    OUCH! THAT HURTS! 2 Corinthians 12:7-10, "And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that ...read more

    Lesson 6: Get Over Yourself - Get On With The Work Series

    One of the greatest blessings is when God works through you. One of the greatest dangers is when God works through you. Learn how to avoid the penetrating gaze of the Lord and simply rejoice in His work through you.

    What’s the hottest thing you’ve ever been close to? I remember once being near a log deck fire that was so hot that it was melting the asphalt under my feet. I’ve seen the effects of intense heat and fire reduce a full house to a pile of ashes and a chimney, with things melted in ...read more

    Some Christians never grow up in their faith. And yet, Galatians 5 tells me that God’s Spirit can help me have more faith in my life. How does He do that?

    OPEN: When I listen to Christian radio in the evenings, I’ve often tuned in to a call-in program featuring a wise, grandfatherly gentleman who has that calm reassuring voice capable of melting fear. One night a lady, who was obviously crying, called in and related the following: “I was born blind, ...read more

    Live Out Loud Series

    based on 6 ratings
     | 13,587 views

    James tells us that faith without works is dead. He is not saying Paul is wrong. Paul spoke about becoming a believer and follower of Christ, James is talking about behaving as a believer and follower of Christ. Out loud faith is not merely, words, thi

    Intro: What does your faith say? That is the question you should ask yourself this morning as you listen to this message. What does your lifestyle say about the God you say you serve? James is clearly pulling no punches as He deals directly with living, abiding full life generating faith. Does ...read more

    Was Jesus teaching us that we can "buy" our way into heaven by doing good works?

    OPEN: One night a woman dreamed that she was having a conversation with God. She was angry about all the suffering and evil she saw around her, so she complained to the Lord. “God, why don’t You do something about all this?” God gently replied: “I did. I created you.” APPLY: Over the next ...read more

    Judgment for our benevolence on earth

    I have a question for everyone here today; especially those who have been Christians for many years. What happens after faith? We finally accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, start reading our Bibles, try to learn to pray and then what do we do? Isn’t their another step in this journey of ...read more

    Why Would Anyone Reject Salvation? Series

    Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Feb 15, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,279 views

    Paul shows us why the Israelites rejected the salvation provided by God, and also why the Gentiles received the salvation provided by God.

    Scripture If anyone could ever have achieved salvation by his own effort, it was Martin Luther. In 1505, when he was twenty-one years old, Luther abandoned a promising career in law and entered the monastery of the Augustinian hermits at Erfurt. As he later said, this was not to study academic ...read more

    Effort Demanded

     | 3,754 views

    Faith plus Works produces miracles. It is not that God cannot work in any other manner, but generally, this is the method He chooses. So have a keen ear and be quick to do what He bids you to do. A miracle is just ahead if you will believe and obey.

    Esfuerzo Requerido (Effort Demanded) James (Stg.) 2:14-18 14 ¶ What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? (KJV) 14 Hermanos míos, ¿qué aprovechará si alguno dice que tiene fe, y no tiene obras? ¿Podrá la fe salvarle? (RVG04) 15 ...read more

    Don’t Do It Without Me Scriptures: Jeremiah 29:11; First Peter 4:10-11; Isaiah 6:8 Good morning Strangers Rest. If you recall from my message last week, I talked about how you, as a Church, have come this far by faith. Next week we will celebrate the Church’s 99th anniversary and as I concluded ...read more

    Repentance

     | 2,133 views

    Repent sounds weird in today's language. What's it all about?

    Jesus’ first messages were summarized by two words, repent and believe in the Gospel (Matthew 4:17; Mark 1:15). What does repent mean? Turn Back Often translated as repent is the Hebrew word “shoob,” which means to turn back or return. What did Solomon, that wise backslider, say about national ...read more

    Talk Is Cheap

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 6, 2019
     | 7,273 views

    Actions or works may not create faith but they can reveal the substance and form of a person’s faith. To me, works is our faith made visible. “For just as a body without the spirit is dead” … a corpse … “so faith without works is also dead” … a corpse (James 2:26).

    [Put up picture of me on screen.] Let me tell you a little bit about that man in the photo. He was 40 years old when that picture was taken. He was 20 months sober at the time. Well … “sober” is not the right word. He was a dry drunk” … which means that he hadn’t picked up a drink in 20 ...read more

     | 15,839 views

    Those who are outside the people of God are in rebellion against Him and are therefore spiritually dead. But God makes them a free offer to bring them back to life. All that’s needed to receive all of the bounty that God offers is to believe his promise,

    I guess everyone in the world is aware that not all is right with either the world or themselves. If I were to ask you to name 3 things that were wrong with the world, I imagine that most of you would answer within a few seconds. If I were to ask you the same question about yourself you might take ...read more

    A California Miner said: “I do most of my work on my knees.” Jesus did some of his best work on His knees.

    Your Best Work is Done On Your Knees Luke 22:39-46 What position do you do your best work? Do you manage by walking around? Do you work best sitting at a computer desk?
