Sermons on The Church
She Waits
She Waits Introduction Matthew 25:1–13 1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to…
Perilous Times: PHILADELPHIA
Philadelphia, the sixth of the seven Churches of Revelation. The sixth period of Church history on the road to the present times.
The Seven Churches: THYATIRA
Thyatira, The Corrupt Church. WHAT IS YOUR PRICE? It is no surprise that both Geographically, Historically and Philosophically we move from the Compromising Church of PERGAMOS, to the Corrupt Church of Thyatira. How much of our faith in Christ needs to be COMPROMISED before it is corrupted?
What PRICE are we willing to accept to CORRUPT ourselves?
Is it even monetary?
Perhaps it is only to keep our jobs.
Perhaps it is only to be accepted by our peers.
WHAT IS YOUR PRICE?
The Seven Churches: Ephesus
The first Church Jesus addresses is the historical church of Ephesus. A church, strong in doctrine, but a church that had left its first love
The Pillar and Ground Of The Truth
The Church is the Pillar and Ground of the Truth, but what happens to the world when the Church itself turns away from the truth?
Listen as Brother Phillip expounds the truth of it from 1 Timothy 3:14-15.
The Bride of The Son Is Not Appointed To The Wrath of The Father
The Bride of Christ is NOT Appointed to the Wrath of the Father, but this notion is rising in popularity for whatever reason, nevertheless it is a perfect contradiction to the understanding of all that the church is.
Many Members, One Body
Many Members, one body; that is the description of the Church. This is the true and only unity in diversity, for all their efforts the worlds attempts at creating such unity continues to prove itself a failure apart from Christ.
When Truth is denied, the only unity that can exist is unity in error, a complete oxymoron. But this is the corrupt forgery the world continues to attempt and continues to create only division.
The Church is many members, but One Body in Christ.
To Give The Light Of The Knowledge Of The Glory Of God
To Give The Light of The Knowledge of The Glory of God I think of the title of the sermon this morning which is found in verse 6, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. It’s a passage that gives purpose to our lives as Christians, but it also presumes a few things. That we have that light to give. That all others are in darkness. That darkness is the…
In But Not Of The World
In But Not Of The World John 17:11-16 11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. 12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but…
