Christmas sermon 2010: The Bethlehem’s baby and the divine design (Luke 2:1-19)

Introduction

Bethlehem today is a thriving town, inhabited mostly by Christian Arabs (in name if not in fact). But, in the time of Christ it was a tiny, insignificant town, known only for the fact that it had once been King David’s hometown. How was it that Jesus Christ, Son of God and King of the Universe would choose to be born here in a lowly cow-stall?

Peter and the miraculous catch of fish

Introduction

1. All of us face problems in this life time. Most of them are issues we can control. But sometimes we face ones that are beyond our control.

2. Two thousand years ago a fisherman called Peter had such a problem too. One night Peter and his friends tried every tool and trick of the trade – but didn’t catch a single fish.

3. The next morning he met Jesus who seemed to control even the mother nature. Peter followed his instructions and caught a great load of fish in the broad day light.

4. It’s not only Peter’s situation that was changed. Peter’s life was transformed.

5. That was 2000 years ago. Do you know that same Jesus is here to do the same with you and your problem this evening?

Sermon: What is faith? Hebrews 11:1-3,6

What is faith?

Image by: Mario Seekr

Introduction

Karl Williams (not his real name) was in the final stages of terminal cancer when he asked me, “Pastor, what is faith?” None of my glib answers seemed to be adequate at that point. Fortunately, Karl experienced real faith before he went home to be with Jesus. But, I have since pondered his question many times and I have sought to answer it. This sermon is yet another feeble attempt to do so.

Sermon: Jesus and the widow of Nain Luke 7:11-17

The widow of Nain

Introduction

1. Widows are a helpless group in any society regardless of their age, time and culture. They could easily become destitute in the society unable to earn a living.

2. They are vulnerable and that makes them an easy target for sexual predators, robbers and other unwelcomed people.

3. This was the situation of the widow from Nain. Her only son was her protector, supporter and hope.

4. Now that he is gone, her future was full of uncertainty – At least she thought so.

5. Then she meets our Lord and savior Jesus Christ.

6. Let’s see how she was helped out of her situation by Jesus.
