Sermons on Alien Life Form

1 Peter 5:8-11 Whether we believe it or not. Whether we like it or not. We are in a battle for our lives. The spiritual forces of wickedness in heavenly places are at war with us as children of God. Their objective is to steal, kill, and destroy all God has planned for us. I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of seeing God’s people lose. I hate seeing the enemy steal, kill and destroy the lives of believers through his…

1 Peter 5:8  Satan. At one time, a majority of Christians believed in the existence of a literal spiritual enemy called Satan. My, how times have changed! According to a 2009 Barna Research poll, “Four out of ten Christians (40%) strongly agreed that Satan “is not a living being but is a symbol of evil.” An additional two out of ten Christians (19%) said they “agree somewhat” with that perspective. Only a minority of Christians (26%) indicated that they believe Satan…

1 Peter 5:6-7 According to the National Institute of Mental Health, “An estimated 31.1% of U.S. adults experience an anxiety disorder at some time in their lives.” I do not know about you, but I am in this 31.1% of American adults. Whether you would consider your anxiety a “disorder” or not, the truth is, everyone experiences what the Bible calls anxiety, worry, or cares. Jesus addressed the worries of this life and gave us His solution. Peter also addresses…

1 Peter 5:1-5 In everything God has designed there is order. Whether it’s the family structure, societies, or the church, God has a brilliant design for each in order to carry out His plan for the ages. How the church is structured and operating from that structure accurately ensures the proper function and effectiveness of the church. This Sunday, we will look at 1 Peter 5:1-5 and see how God has designed the church to function in order to carry out…

1 Peter 4:12-19 Suffering. It’s a part of everyone’s life. But how we view and respond to suffering can make all the difference when it comes to following Jesus in life. If we see our suffering as an unwanted inconvenience that must simply endure until life returns to “normal”, then our suffering will have no real value and life will lose its luster. However, if we view our suffering as a divine opportunity to transform our character and behavior, then we…

1 Peter 4:4-11 As a people whose lives have been radically changed by Jesus Christ, our values and lifestyle become increasingly different than those of the world. The more we grow in understanding of God’s plan for us as Christians, it seems the world gets darker every day. The temptation then for us is to look at the world around us and judge or condemn them for their ungodly behaviors. But that is not our prerogative, it’s God’s. This Sunday, we…

1 Peter 4:1-6 What does it mean to fervently follow Jesus? This Sunday, we will dive back into our study of 1 Peter beginning in chapter 4. In this chapter Peter challenges his readers to consider their former lives of living according to the flesh and to make a decision to stop dabbling in their old lifestyle of self-will and start living instead for God’s will.

1 Peter 3:18-22 What does living out our faith as a believer look like today? In what ways will people identify us as a follower of Jesus? Would anyone know we were a follower of Jesus by observing our life? Living a life of growing faith in an ever increasing hostile world is not only important but imperative. Jesus calls us as His followers to stand up and be counted and to not shrink away when hardships come. This Sunday, we…

1 Peter 3:13-17 God is Good! So, as ambassadors of a good God we must be engaged in doing good to others, so that God’s name is glorified and His will is accomplished on earth. Well, what does that look like in 2022? This Sunday, we will dive into 1 Peter 3:13-17 and see what Peter has to say about doing good in such a way that people take notice and God’s will is accomplished.

1 Peter 3:8-12 That’s right! The Good Vibes continue this Sunday! We will conclude Peter’s thoughts on how to live the Vibe Life. As recipients of the greatest gift ever given, eternal life in Jesus Christ, we should always have positive feelings about who we are and what we’ve been given. So, are you living the Vibe Life? Join us this Sunday to see how you can live the Vibe Life God intends all His children to live!

1 Peter 3:8-12 Have you ever been around a person who was full of life? Someone who always has a kind word to say or sees the bright side of things? Aren’t those people annoying? Actually, the world needs more of these “good vibes only” people today. In fact, the church could use more of these types of believers. We should all be “good vibes only” people when we consider the kind of people God calls us to in 1 Peter…

1 Peter 3:7 Being a “Hunky” Husband means being a godly husband. Many husbands struggle to live up to expectations placed on us and oftentimes feel inadequate. Rather than strive to be the husband God calls us to be, we retreat into our own skin and simply just exist. When we do this, we not only suffer and miss out on God’s best for our wives and children but our families miss out on all that God has in store…
