Riverbluff Church Sermons

Psalm 33:12 In this sermon by Pastor Joe Still, he writes, “I spent some moments this week re-reading and reflecting on a few of the founding documents of our nation; as well as additional writings by some of the Founders and other great leaders in its history. One of those documents was the Declaration of Independence. The concluding paragraph of that document has only two sentences, one of which...

1 Thessalonians 5:18 In this sermon by Joe Still we look to God’s Word to find how HIS Grace Reigns over our circumstances and how we as a church can embrace God’s Grace for a broken world! Music courtesy of hooksounds.com

2 Corinthians 11:16-12:10 This morning Pastor Joe Still press deeper into our commitment to live out the command of GOD found in Hebrews 12:15 “See to it that no one comes short of the GRACE of God.” As your Pastor this weighs heavy on my heart and I’ve been praying and asking GOD to give each of us a great burden to live that out with one another and in the lives of every person where we live, wo...

Matthew 18:21-35 We continue our journey this morning into GOD’S “Wonderful Grace”! Last week we saw how GOD’S Grace can and will Reign over our sin and failures, over our religious striving, and over our secrets and our shame. Today we turn the coin over to see Jesus teaching His followers that the extent to which we are willing to give Grace to the person whose hurt us the most and deserves it t...

Romans 5:20-21 In this sermon by Joe Still we explore the truth of God’s reigning grace that Paul shares in his letter to the church in Rome. At the end of Romans chapter 5, after making a comparison to the power of sin, Paul concludes with this great thought: “GRACE WILL REIGN” (Romans 5:21 HCBS) When GRACE REIGNS guilt is erased! When GRACE REIGNS relationships are healed! When GRACE REIGNS weak...

1 Peter 1:13-19 In this sermon we continue to study scriptures that point us to the truths about our good and beautiful personal GOD. In His Word, He reveals that He loves us just as we are. He will accept us and receive us “as is”, in whatever condition we find ourselves. But, He loves us too much to leave us that way. Not only has He determined to perfect us and bring us into His perfect presenc...

Romans 8:28-37 In this sermon we continue to think together about what it means to be loved by a personal GOD, we’ll reflect on HIS great passion FOR US. The Bible declares this truth: our GOD is for us! Thanking God when I think of you convinced that HE is “for you”! Music courtesy of hooksounds.com.

Psalm 16 In this sermon, we continue our spring teaching series personal GOD and turn our attention to a personal GOD who is NEAR US. It is consistent teaching throughout the written Word of God that HE is always near HIS children. Scriptures like Joshua 1:9 (ESV) “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wh...

Matthew 6:13 In this sermon we continue our series “Personal GOD”. This morning we celebrate our personal relationship with FATHER-GOD and HIS plans and pathways to “DELIVER US FROM THE EVIL ONE”! Music courtesy of hooksounds.com.

Psalm 91 In this sermon we continue to study the scriptures that reveal the truth about our good & beautiful personal GOD. Today we delve into Psalm 91. In it we find the scripture Satan quoted when he tempted Jesus in the wilderness. Satan twisted God’s Word on how God PROTECTS His own. That continues to be a significant scheme Satan uses to distort the truth about our personal GOD and lead many...

1 John 4:7-12,16-19 In this sermon we will look at how our PERSONAL GOD … “LOVES”. In 1 John 4, the Apostle John says that “God is love.” God doesn’t just love us. He is love. He is the definition of love. And the greatest example or model of love is the Lord Jesus Christ. Sometimes we think that if we fail one more time, or sin again, or lose our temper, or think another impure thought that God i...

1 Kings 19:11-13, 1 Samuel 3:1-10 In this sermon we begin a brand new teaching series entitled, “PERSONAL GOD.” Most everyone has, or has had, a personal relationship with someone who is “life-giving.” They help fill life with hope and joy! Personal relationships like that can be hard to come by. The Gospel writer John records stating, “I came so [people] can have real and eternal life, more and b...

1 Peter 2:21 In this sermon we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. It is the central holy-day in the Christian calendar and the day God powerfully declared Jesus of Nazareth to be the Christ, the Son of the Living God! Because of Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection; we can have forgiveness of our sin, a new life now, an eternal destiny with God in Heaven forever, and the p...

John 12:12-19 In this sermon we conclude our teaching series “ALL IN”. Today is the Sunday before we celebrate the Resurrection. On this specific Sunday, a little over 2,000 years ago, Jesus allowed Himself to be paraded through the streets of the capitol city of Jerusalem and celebrated as the long awaited Messiah from GOD. This day was already a special day on the Jewish calendar. It was a day t...

Luke 23:32-43 In this sermon we continue our teaching series “ALL IN”. That phrase describes the life of our Lord and Savior. Last week Dr. Jeremy Sin helped us see that Jesus was ALL IN for ALL PEOPLE from ALL PLACES! This morning we see that Jesus is ALL IN for ALL PEOPLE in ALL CONDITIONS and in ALL CIRCUMSTANCES. Jesus is ALL IN for Pagans & Priests, Image Consultants & Immigrants, Addicts & A...

Guest Speaker, Dr. Jeremy Sin In this sermon we explore Jesus’ ALL IN LOVE for ALL PEOPLE from ALL PLACES. As a preschooler my mom taught me a song that had a verse that said: “Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the World…” In Revelation 7, God’s Word gives us a glimpse of our eternal future gathered with people “from every nation and tribe and people and language, standing in fr...

Luke 9:51-56 & Matthew 5:43-46 Jesus loves people—all people. He loves the Manic and the Magnificent, Pagans & Priests, Historians & Haters, Pharisees and Financiers. Jesus loves Addicts & Architects, Barbarians & Bankers, Image-Consultants & Immigrants. He loves the Lovable & the Unlovable, Rejects & Radiologists, Prostitutes & Police. When Jesus walked the earth He was compassionate and merciful...
