Josh McLachlan Plevna Sermons

The squeaky wheel gets the grease. We need to pray more like the squeaky wheel....and other thoughts on prayer.

Ready or not, the Kingdom of God is here (spiritual kingdom).  Ready or not the kingdom of God is going to come (physical kingdom).  Ready or not, you will meet Jesus.  Are you ready?

We all have needs we need God to meet.  When God gives us what we need to meet those needs, we need to do what He tells us, and we need to "Give God Thanks!"

We should do everything God asks us to do, to the best of our abilities.  Not because we are trying to get something out of it, but because of what Jesus did on the cross.  We are only doing what we should be doing when we serve Him.  As a bonus, God does reward us for what we do here on earth.

 I am to rebuke my brother in sin for their good, I am to forgive my brother for my good.

The story of "Lazarus and the rich man". Ultimately, this comes down to choosing Jesus before it's too late. Once you leave this earth, there is no turning back.

Today we see the importance of obeying Scripture as much in the small things as the big things.

Use what God has given you to benefit yourself, by using it to bring people to Jesus.

A parable of rebellion, humiliation, repentance, forgiveness, and a Father's love.

 We all know what it's like to lose something and how good it feels to find something.  Jesus calls the unsaved person lost. (not because He doesn't know where they are, but because they are not where they belong-a part of His family). When the lost are found, the Angels in heaven rejoice.

Take a closer look at our church mission statement.

The phrase "Fools Rush In" applies to people who make rash decisions without thinking of what all is involved.  Jesus isn't looking for Fools Who Rush In. They are usually the Fools Who Rush out. Jesus has a large group of people following Him and He informs them of the cost of discipleship. The same cost apply to us today.

    The Need for Love     The Source for Love     The Timing for Love     The Reaction to Love Jesus showed love when love was needed. We need to show love how we can, when we can.

Fathers who love their children show them "Tough Love". Our Father in heaven in no exception.

We tend to face worries when God calls us to action.  What do we do with those worries? Give God your worries, Focus on your eternal future, and go!

Timothy had someone make a spiritual difference in his life. It was his mother.  We all have the ability to make a spiritual difference in someone's life, even if they are not our child. "Be a spiritual Difference Maker"

Paul commends the Berean church for checking out to see if what he said was really true.  You will be commended for checking out what you hear to see if it is really true; even more for putting it into practice.

The saying goes, "Whoever has the most toys when he dies wins". More realistically, "Whoever has the most toys when he dies, still dies".  Since the latter is true, store up treasures in heaven. They will be the only treasures that last.

There are lots of phonies in the world that call themselves Christians.  Today we look at 4 points that help us recognize whether or not we are the "real deal".

Jesus calls out the Pharisees and teachers of the law as what they really are, "hypocrites". Today we look and see how we might be like them in modern day times.

Light shines to expose darkness.  Let the light of God's word into your life to expose the darkness there.
