    A huge part of the Great Commission is to make disciples, which is known as “discipleship.” This message answers the questions: “Where are we supposed to be doing this?” and “How are we supposed to be discipling others?”

    In the Great Commission, Jesus commanded, “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you” (Matthew 28:19-20). I read a Southern Baptist book entitled ...read more

    "only Use Words When Necessary??"

    There are a couple of saying attributed to Francis of Assisi that have always been troubling to me. Every time we hear something from a preacher past or present what are we to do? We are to search the Scriptures to see if it is so, so let's do so!

    Was Francis Right? Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:3-5 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” And our memory ...read more

    A song that a lot of churches used to sing a lot, was, “I shall not be moved.

    The chorus of that song goes like this, “I shall not be, I shall not be moved; I shall not be, I shall not be moved: just like a tree that’s planted by the waters, Lord, I shall not be moved.” But the problem with many of the saints of God singing that song is that they are not like a tree planted ...read more

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 3, 2022
     | 2,999 views

    Paul is ready to pass the baton of leadership to the elders of Ephesus. Paul mentioned he had invested three years at Ephesus. Paul was handing off full responsibility to elders with very little experience. He did need to send Tychicus and then Timothy later to help the elders.

    Background of Paul addressing the elders This discourse of Paul addressing the Ephesian elders takes place near the end of his third journey. He already spent two years at the hall of Tyrannus in Ephesus. He mentions that in total he poured into the elders for three years (Acts 20:31). This exit ...read more

    As we repent from sin and turn to God, what must also be included?

    As we repent from sin and turn to God, what must also be included? “I have had one message for Jews and Greeks alike—the necessity of repenting from sin and turning to God, and of having faith in our Lord Jesus.” (Acts 20:21 NLT) Repentance is also from unbelief to faith.

    In Acts 20, Paul was about to leave Ephesus and the church he helped to plant. For over three years, he and his fellow elders in the faith worked together to proclaim the message of salvation in Jesus Christ alone. He also spent considerable time teaching the Word of God and sound doctrine ...read more

    In Acts 20, the Apostle Paul gives a farewell speech to the Ephesian elders. What can we learn from this speech?

    During his third missionary journey, Paul wanted to meet with Ephesian elders and give a charge to them. However, he did not travel to Ephesus probably because he was warned it would be too dangerous, so he sent messengers and had the Ephesian elders meet him at Miletus. The reason why Paul ...read more

    Acts 20 has a summary of Paul's ministry in various places after he left Ephesus. His closing message to the elders of Ephesus is a masterpiece of a charge to church leaders anywhere.

    Revelation, Chapters 2 and 3, deal with seven specific churches located in Asia Minor (present day Turkey) that were given words of encouragement and criticism by the Lord Jesus Christ. We need to read what Jesus says to them, because it applies to us as well.

    Revelation 2 and 3 deal with seven specific churches listed by the Lord Jesus Christ (Revelation 1:11).
