Central Baptist Church, Niles, Ohio

On Sunday, November 18, 2018, we continued our way through the Gospel of Luke by looking at a summarization passage that gave us some insight on those who were following Jesus.  We learned that this group was made up of the twelve disciples and “many women.”  I told my congregation that a local church needs to be a (1) Gospel Driven Church, (2) Welcoming and Loving Church and (3) Financially Generous Church.

Sermon Title: "The Christian Church"

Scripture Text: Luke 8:1-3

Scripture Text: 1 Peter 1:3-9

Sunday morning, I spoke about how all of humanity can receive forgiveness, salvation and peace through Christ.  We looked at the story of a sinful woman anointing Jesus’ feet with an expensive perfume at the home of a Pharisee named Simon.  This woman, who must have been looked at as one of the worst of the worst sinners in the community, was able to find forgiveness, salvation, and peace through Jesus; just like each and every one of us could.  Trust Jesus in all parts of your life today.

Sermon Title: "Forgiveness, Salvation and Peace"

Scripture Text: Luke 7:36-50

Scripture Text: 1 John 5:14-15

Yesterday morning we talked about the message of Jesus and John the Baptist and asked ourselves the question: “Are you going to reject Jesus or accept Jesus?”  John the Baptist prepared the way for the Messiah and Jesus is the Messiah.  They both had powerful messages for their listeners and Jesus’s gift of salvation is something that everyone needs.  There is no way to get to heaven on our own; we need Jesus.  Are you going to accept Jesus and the forgiveness He offered You?  Or are you going to reject Him and continue living your lives separated from God?  A life without Christ is one on the “highway to hell.”  Turn your life over to Christ today.
