    The council at Jerusalem concludes that grace and faith come to both Jews and Gentiles.

    INTRODUCTION They are called “Watershed Events.” They may seem insignificant at the time, but they change our lives or even the course of human history. Today’s story of the First Church Council of Jerusalem is such an event. The decision to allow Gentiles into the new, growing Christian community ...read more

    Taking Inventory

    The process of counting what a company has in its inventory is known as taking inventory. Can we apply this same process to our Christian walk?

    Taking Inventory of the Church: Paul is discussing a trip with Barnabas. Why did Paul take this second missionary journey and what was the purpose? Why would they want to go? Why should they? What has happened since his last visit? How many have been converted? He wants to go back and check on the ...read more

     | 10,403 views

    This sermon relies heavily on Charles Swindoll's Paul: A Man of Grace and Grit, Word Publishing, 2002, Chapters 12. The sermon covers the part of Acts 15 when Paul and Barnabas parted company. From their situation, we draw lessons about handling conflict.

    Introduction: A. The story is told of a little boy who got into an argument with some boys twice his size. 1. He drew a line in the dirt and dared the bigger boys to cross the line. 2. The bigger boys accepted the challenge and crossed the line. 3. Immediately, the little boy smiled and ...read more

    To hear animal rights people tell it, wolves are the most lovable creatures there are. But really, wolves are vicious, bloodthirsty killers. In Acts 15:1-2, spiritual wolves arrive to counter Paul’s teaching of salvation by grace alone through faith alone

    The Wolves Close In Series: Acts Chuck Sligh August 28, 2016 TEXT: Acts 15:1-2 – “And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved. 2 When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small ...read more

    God had delivered his people out of the Egyptian bondage. He had a great plan for these people, which included the ability to commune with them. He wanted to develop a life of personal fellowship with each of them, and become their personal God. So, he created the Tabernacle.

    Exodus 25:8-9 and Acts 15:16 When we look at The Tabernacle of the Old Testament it was a type of the New Testament Christ. In this of the text we see the significance of the amazing work of this great part of history. In Exodus 25:8 it says “And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell ...read more

    Some truths, those that define the Faith of Christ the Lord, demand that we stand firm in defending them against distortion. The faithful depend upon each of us as followers of Christ to defend the Faith, speaking the truth in love.

    “Some men came down from Judea and were teaching the brothers, ‘Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.’ And after Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and debate with them, Paul and Barnabas and some of the others were appointed to go up to Jerusalem ...read more

    Matthew 11:28-30 is a well known passage but what are these yokes and how does the Lord fit our yoke? Several examples of biblical yokes are given and we close with the personal "Yoke Maker" and "Yoke Fitter". All the Lord does for you is good.

     | 1,524 views

    The Galatians had been seduced into error by false teachers trying to put them under Law instead of grace. Paul writes decisively to them and recounts his own involvement in the gospel dealing with this error and his visits to Jerusalem.

    Did the Apostle Paul have enemies? He sure did! I never thought about it before, but I think he had many opponents (enemies) because His preaching must have ruffled many feathers. I love him because I love the books of the Bible he wrote and the stand he took for Jesus Christ.
