Sermons

God desires that we be different to the world by living His way of life. This makes us odd, different or strange to this world. But God considers us His peculiar treasure and prizes us greatly provided we please Him.

The Feast of Trumpets should remind us of God’s command for His end-time Church to warn the nations of the coming calamity and worldwide destruction that will occur shortly before Christ’s return. Most people will pay little attention to the warnings; some, perhaps many, will mock and scoff at them. This is to their own detriment! But you can be different and submit to God by heeding the sound of the war trumpet from God’s watchmen and turning away from modern godless Babylon.

When the Israelites complained, God dealt with them time and again. In one instance, He sent snakes in to deal with their complaining. What can we learn from this situation?

We have to maintain a heart that is soft and usable by God. What happens
when we have. Hardened hearts? Are there Spiritual consequences for having a
hard heart?

The UN wants Jerusalem’s Old City, Judea and Samaria to become “Judenrein”; Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas speaks of the danger of the Third Temple; the world is consumed by Anti-Semitism; the USA and Germany have failed to bring peace to the Middle East; Israel attacks Lebanon and kills the leaders of the Hezbollah terrorist organization, Hassan Nasrallah and Ibrahim Aqil, and other officials; and many speak of further escalation involving outside powers. Israel is facing numerous enemies—Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Turkey, the UN, Russia and China… the list seems to be endless. Not to forget Germany, France and most of Europe. Can Israel win such a war which is being fought on multiple fronts?

Do Christians leave a legacy–like many of those listed in the Bible? Will there be long-lasting impact for what God’s people do with their lives? By our actions, are we helping to shape our own future life in the Kingdom of God?

Living in the world today poses unique challenges for each of us, and more so for a true Christian. In this Sermonette we will cover various scriptures that will help us understand that we must rely on God and His Son to guide us through the turbulence and to salvation. We also must have empathy for our Brethren and understand that we must support one another through our trials and have compassion, just as Jesus Christ has compassion for those who obey Him.

In the family setting, we learn early how to ask for something. Asking God for what we seek is a very important part of our relationship with Him—how do we ask?

Even though the Bible clearly proves that Jesus Christ is the God of the Old Testament, most nominal Christians today have no idea. However, this fact has great personal meaning to us, in that the same One who performed the miracles recorded in the Bible lives within us today through His Holy Spirit.

We have seen what great havoc was caused by Covid- and this was just a foretaste of what is to come during the Great Tribulation and the Day of the Lord.

Does the Bible really describe the coming end of the world? And if so, how and why would this happen? What would be the consequences? Would humanity’s depraved lifestyle have anything to do with it? And wouldn’t there be a way out and survival for anyone? If so, who would be protected from destruction?

In the book of Jeremiah, we are told to stand at the crossroads of our lives, and we are to choose paths. How can we ensure that we are taking the proper paths that God wants us to?

How does the Bible describe people living in the end times today? How do they think and act? What is their attitude and motivation? Why will there be a near-total annihilation of the human race—nuclear world wars that will threaten the survival of humanity like never before? Could ungodliness, indifference, self-importance, mockery, and other terrible sins in their many forms have something to do with it? The Bible shows exactly what people are like TODAY and how corrupt and spiritually sick and perverted our society is.

Most of us watch the daily news on television, hear it on the radio, read it in newspapers and other publications, or more likely for the younger generation, on social media.   But that is not where we learn about the Way of Life to which we have been called.   In 2 Timothy 3:16-17 we read that where our focus should be for our daily diet of truth: “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Becoming a Christian dramatically changes the outlook on life. Coming to conversion transforms our understanding of the world we live in, our own lives, and the nature of existence itself! How can we develop and maintain a perspective that encourages us to appreciate the newness of life that God has in store? 

The Bible records actions and activities that have been or are destined to be completed. It is important for us to understand that God will fulfill all that He has planned. Will we be among those who keep the faith until the end—who finish our calling to salvation?

Freedom is a virtue valued by people and many governments around the world. Yet finding the true freedom ordained by God evades most people today. How can we find true freedom in our lives?

There is much evil in this world that we must be mindful of and observe prophetic events that God has identified through the pages of the bible. Still, it can become increasingly difficult to remain focused on living the lives God has blessed us with and being productive. In this Split Sermon we will consider God’s Word and His intentions for us to serve and glorify Him through our faith and a joyful spirit.

A terrible time full of plagues is prophesied for this world. It is called the Day of the Lord in the Bible—a period of time that reveals God’s wrath towards humanity. But why are both the Father and the Son, Jesus Christ, so angry that they will pour out terrible plagues on the people of the end times?  And how can that be when God is personified love? What is the ultimate purpose of the plagues of God on the Day of the Lord?
