Clifford Baptist Church - Amherst, VA
Today we celebrate the beginning of a New Year! As we start another year, we know that God does not change! God's reminder through the prophet Isaiah is God is not done with Judah. Join us as we look at the faithfulness of God: He has not changed and He still has a great work to do through His people.
What an opportunity to worship on Christmas Day! We look directly at the gift of the presence of God. The reality is there are people who don't know about Jesus and there are those who haven't received Him yet. Christ was the Light and Life sent to save a dark world. Have you received the unspeakable gift this Christmas?
The gift of the presence of God, is something that every believer should desire. We understand in order for God to be with us, we needed a miracle. God came to us in the most incredible way, as a baby, but His purpose was the Cross. Join us as we look at the coming of our King!
Join us today as we focus on 8 words of scripture, "Thanks be to God for His unspeakable gift". As we look to these words, I pray we can see the opportunity that is before us. I pray we will understand the fullness of Jesus. I pray Jesus will be the focus of our Christmas season.
Goodbyes are not the easiest for anyone. As the eastern tribes return to their land, Joshua commends their faithful obedience and help in conquering the land. He also calls on them to protect themselves with continued obedience to God. Join us as we learn what that type of obedience looks like for us today.
Our world is filled with so much going on, many are looking for somewhere or someone to turn to, a safe place, a refuge. Joshua had the responsibility of establishing cities of refuge within the promised land. As we look at these cities today, we are reminded of these words from Psalm 46: "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."
One of the most important aspects to a faithful life, is how well one finishes. Paul says, "I have kept the faith." We will see the reward of Caleb's faithfulness as we he receives his portion of the land. Caleb's life shows us the blessing of fully following.
Today, we will look at the culmination of all the fighting and conquering during Joshua's leadership. The people and land are at rest from war. The responsibility now is to continue the work of the Lord and divide up the land. In order to rest in His promises, there is still work for us to do today. Join us as we see the promises of God become a reality to His people.
Our God is a loving God, and his mercies are new every morning. But there is a limit to his patience after which judgment must occur. Even knowing that there is sure punishment and judgment awaiting those that don’t turn to Him, millions intend to come to God; but they put it off. We don’t know when our last day will be. Putting it off is like playing Russian Roulette with our eternity. Join us today as we look at our situation through God’s eyes.
A simple note can be used to remember things. God uses the scripture today to offer a time to pause and remember how far he has led them. There is nothing that can stand in the way of what God promises His people. Join us today as we take note of the work of the Lord.
We have reached the last chapter of battle in the book of Joshua. We will see that Joshua left nothing undone that the Lord had asked him to do. Today we will look at how that we can be the same type of people who wholly follow the Lord.
What do you do after the miracle? God answers the prayer, God shows up to help with the battle, then what? We are called to continue to be faithful to the Lord. Join us today as we look at the continued faithfulness of Joshua and the Israelites.
Have you ever been involved in something that you should have never been in from the start? Can the Lord still make something good of it? Join us today as we see the Lord work in the aftermath of a decision made by His people.
How do you respond after a defeat? Do you still feel like you can't win? We will see how Israel turns to God to lead them against their enemy for the second time. When His plan is followed, victory is the outcome.
When success has turned to defeat, what should you do? When it seems like all is lost, is there another way? Today, we take a look at what happens when at first you don't succeed. Join us as we look for that God-led plan to help in a difficult situation.

Some think that sin can be hidden from God. We will see one man's attempt to hide his sin, comes at a great cost. Sin and disobedience always carry a price. Join us as we continue in Joshua chapter 7.
How important is it that everyone be on the same page? Today you will see an example when one person doesn't obey God. Sin creeps in, and destroys the best made plans. Join us as we take a look at the "Sin Within".

Have you every been focused on something that seems impossible? With God all things are possible (Matt 19:26). Today, we will see how God leads his people as they face Jericho. His leading allows an amazing victory by the power of God.

We look forward to the opportunity that we have to rejoice and celebrate the work of the Lord. The truth is that not everyone celebrates what God is doing. If you were the one lost, wouldn't you want to know someone was searching for you. Jesus does just that, he searches for those who are lost. Join us today as we look at the importance of the one.
There are times that we think we are in control. The reality is that we are not. In today's message, Joshua encounters the One who is in total control. Joshua's response is crucial as we see God taking charge of His people

Do you have something that stands in the way of where you are and where God wants you? Is something blocking you from God? Listen today as we see how Isreal faces a challenge one step at a time.
One of the primary responsibilities for Christians is seeing that their family is saved. The scarlet cord offers Rehabs family an opportunity to be saved. Tie the cord today - is the challenge we must all accept.
God's word is filled with the unlikeliest of people being used by God. Rehab the harlot, is a prime example of how God can use an unlikely person and ultimately change her life forever.
The book of Joshua opens with transition. The great leader, Moses, is dead and Joshua - at 80 years old - is called by God to lead the Israelites. Even as leaders change we are reminded that God still leads his people.
As we travel through the book of 1 Thessalonians, we learn a great deal about Paul's new church plant in the large city of Thessalonica. The city was not in favor of churches of Jesus Christ, and persecuted believers. This was an extremely hard field of ministry!
This passage of scripture deals with the endtimes of this earth: The rapture of the church; The Antichrist, The Judgment of God. But why does Paul write about endtime theology? He is urging the church to be serious about bringing people to salvagion in Jesus Christ!
As we study this second letter to the Thessalonian church, Paul knows persecution is getting hotter against the church. He writes to build believers up in courage. As the battle gets harder, the love inside the church must get stronger.
As Paul closes his first letter to the Thessalonian church, he directs them in some very basic guidance for the church. These guidelines of faith are still needed in the church today.
Paul writes to a small church under persecution in the big city of Thessalonica. They want to know when Jesus will give them peace and rest. This scripture is some of the most crucial endtimes theology in your Bible.
This is the Bible's primary statement of Jesus' rapture of His church. If you want the Bible's Word on Jesus' return for His Bride, this sermon is for you!
The old missionary Paul gave the new church of Thessalonica three guiding, Godly principles:Walk in Holiness; Walk in Love; and Walk in Honesty. It is still God's guidance for the chruch TODAY!
Although the little church of Thessalonica was under severe persecution, Paul was consistent in urging them to stand strong in their ministry. These are primary words for our church today.
We all know that St. Paul was the world's greatest missionary. But he also loved being a leader in the local church. This sermon shows us Paul's heart as a Pastor.
