    Sin Is A Disgrace To Any People

    Contributed by Melvin Newland on Jul 12, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,536 views

    Now it would seem ridiculous to ignore sin & Satan completely, so they don’t. But what God calls sin in the Bible isn’t necessarily what they consider to be sin. And the idea of a real Satan is hard for some to accept. (Powerpoints Available - #237)

    God blesses when we get behind the vision He ordains. Division threatens to side track the church from His vision. This sermon looks at the importance of seeking unity, but not at the cost of the vision God calls us to follow.

    Blessing, Division, and Vision Genesis 13: 1 Then Abram went up from Egypt, he and his wife and all that he had, and Lot with him, to the South. 2 Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold. 3 And he went on his journey from the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had ...read more

    This message is about what a spiritual attack looks like and what can be done about it.

    Do you remember the record where Peter rebukes Jesus for telling the disciples He was going to die in Jerusalem? Of course you do. Turn with me to Matthew 16. (21) From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the ...read more

    The Divisive And The Godly Minister

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 13, 2012
     | 5,954 views

    This is the very reason that this 3rd letter of John was written. There was a divisive leader in the church who was causing serious problems. In writing, John covers the traits of the divisive leader and he tells us how to handle him.

    A divisive leader is one of the most serious problems to ever confront a church. When a church has within its ranks a divisive leader, the very life and ministry of the church are threatened. A divisive leader always carries a church through one of its most traumatic experiences. He usually ...read more

    The sermons that I have listed are 30 to 40 minute sermons. I have only listed the points and a couple of comments under each point of each sermon to give the preacher a remembrance which the Holy Spirit can lead on and speak through the man of God.

    "Divisions Amongst the Saints' 1 Corinthians 11:18 For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions (\schismata\) among you.

    One of the root causes of an ineffective fellowship is the spirit of division

    In the midst of problems at the Corinthian church, Paul gives a solution to the churches problems.

    Defining Our Divisions

    Divisions, internal and external, destroy the Body of Christ! Usually these divisions are caused by personal feelings rather than doctrine. What can we do as Christians to stop it?

    INTRODUCTION When I was a teenager, I attended a congregation that was one of the biggest in Lawrenceburg at the time. We had a group of about 85 in our youth group, and I had invited a girl I was talking to at the time for Bible Study. That night, our youth minister was talking about a passage ...read more

    Can We Win More People By Softening The Gospel?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on May 12, 2017

     | 4,780 views

    A study of Jesus' teaching that He did not come to bring peace to the earth and how we need to "fire it up" instead of "watering it down."

    CAN WE WIN MORE PEOPLE BY SOFTENING THE GOSPEL? The best plan is not to “water it down” but “fire it up.” - Luke 12:49. - Fire is referred to in this verse. There is a sense in which the truth of Christ is going to bring fire to the earth. - Fire burns down what already exists. - The fire ...read more

    The Cause And Cure Of Dissension Among The People Of God

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Aug 24, 2009

     | 9,591 views

    Numbers 12 provides a pattern which demonstrates the way dissension develops among God’s People and why. Two New Testament passages show the antidote.

    It was one of those nightmares I hope never to experience again. Our regular mid-week prayer service usually had somewhere between 6-10 people in attendance with a maximum of 4-5 cars parked alongside the church building to accommodate them. As I pulled up to the church on this particular night, I ...read more
