    I have said many times that our life is so fragile, so delicate, that if it wasn't for the protection of our Lord we couldn't last very long in this flesh we live in. It's like living in an egg shell. Of course when we were young we thought we were invi

    The believer is reminded to keep his focus on the eternal promises of God.

    Introduction: I could not imagine life without the promises of God. When faced with life’s most difficult times, we do well to look beyond the difficulty to the power of God.

    What is the key to 2 Corinthians 4:15. You have to go back to verse six and an old testament story to get the full picture and impact to see the power of this promise.

    An Eternal Weight Of Glory Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,872 views

    We should be grateful for God’s earthly, physical blessings and protection, but we should be even more grateful for the eternal blessings he gives us.

    An Eternal Weight of Glory (2 Corinthians 4:7-18 with Psalm 116) My view is that 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 is based on Psalm 116 (the 2 Cor. passage is a midrash). See if you agree. The “starting text,” Psalm 116:3-19 3 The snares of death encompassed me; the pangs of Sheol laid hold ...read more

    In this sermon, we discover what kept the apostle Paul ticking even though he took a licking. Four "f"s kept him going - foundation, force, faith, and focus.

    Introduction: A. I like the story told of the boxer who went to his corner after getting knocked down in the first round. 1. His trainer patted him on the back and said, “Great round. Now go back out there and get him. He hasn’t laid a glove on you.” 2. The boxer was a little confused by that ...read more

    Being a disciple of Jesus calls for total commitment. All Scripture References are from the NASB.

    As you have seen over the past few weeks in this current sermon series, being a disciple of Jesus, to follow Jesus, is serious business. We must be committed completely, with no halfway measures. To be totally committed also means we must be totally dependent on Him. We cannot do this in our own ...read more

    How did Paul respond to his critics ... ? ... Paul "... said, but we proclaim Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles" (I Cor.1:23 NRSV). The true gospel of Jesus Christ removes all crutches that people use to prop up their pretentiousness!

    PERSEVERING CRACKPOTS Text: II Corinthians 4:5 - 12, 2 Corinthians 4:5-12  For we do not proclaim ourselves; we proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and ourselves as your slaves for Jesus' sake.  (6)  For it is the God who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," who has ...read more
