    Felix Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 11, 2022
     | 2,600 views

    Felix represents many people intrigued by the gospel but recognizes that surrendering to it means losing status, power, or control of their own lives. Mere exposure to truth does not necessarily enlighten the heart, and Felix is an excellent example of that.

    Felix Felix was Festus' predecessor. He imprisoned Paul but allowed him to speak in his defense. He hoped Paul would offer him a bribe, but he never did. Festus thought Paul was delusional, but he did not think that was cause for putting him to death or locking him up, so he let him ...read more

    Acts Of The Apostles 35 Of 39

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022
     | 1,573 views

    In Acts twenty-four we find the apostle Paul is being held in custody as a common criminal, waiting for his accusers to arrive, and is to appear before Antonius Felix, the governor of Judaea.

    Felix was a politician in every sense of the word. He had risen from being a subservient person, to the position of Governor of Judaea. He got his start through the influence of his brother at the imperial court of Claudius. He married three Princesses, which also elevated his career. The first ...read more

    A Christmas Message: Peace Of God

    Contributed by Sunitha Justin on Dec 20, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,863 views

    Christmas, or coming of Jesus into the world, brought us peace in three ways. 1. Jesus brought us peace with God. 2. Jesus brought us peace with our own self. 3. Jesus brought us peace with others

    The Hebrew word for peace is Shalom. Shalom is used as salutation by Jewish people at meeting or parting, meaning ‘peace’. Shalom means peace, harmony, wholeness, completeness, prosperity, welfare and tranquillity. Shalom doesn’t mean ‘absence of problems’ or ‘absence of trouble’. Rather, the ...read more

    Paul’s Message Before Governor Felix Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 9, 2022
     | 1,979 views

    We see that Paul is faithful to Jesus Christ in whatever his circumstance. He faced numerous attempts on his life. He was on trial and struck in the face. In all these hardships Paul remained steadfast and whenever he had the chance, he shared the gospel with Governor Felix.

    The Background of Paul before Felix Here we find Paul in Caesarea standing before Felix the governor. Paul recently completed his third missionary journey and now he is beginning his Jerusalem to Rome ministry. Right before he went to Jerusalem, he stopped in Caesarea to visit Philip the ...read more

    The Gambler

     | 7,053 views

    The Powerball Lottery reminds us of 2 types of people; one group who gamble their souls that they can ignore God, and the other who gamble that God is real and will do what He said. Which are you?

    THE GAMBLER INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. J.E. Bedenbaugh said, “My grandmother, a staunch Southern Baptist, had marched me off to Sunday school and church regularly. 2. So when I switched to the Episcopal church after marriage, she challenged me: "What’s wrong with the Baptist Church, ...read more

    WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH ... the Felix' of this world PROCRASTINATE!

    The Unfinished Sermon Acts 24:24—27 Intro. I really feel for Paul as a preacher. His sermon was really on a roll. Want to hit the pulpit and shout "Amen" Then, all the sudden, Felix pulls the plug. "That's enough for now, if I have time later I'll hear more. Don't call me, I'll call ...read more

    Thinking of the words of that old hymn, "Almost persuaded".

    Text for sermon: Acts 24: 24 & 25 (KJV) Many times we have things to happen to us that shake us up inside, and inside out! Sometimes we get so shook up by a saddening event that we declare in our heart that we’ll do better from now on. Felix was one those that fully felt in his heart that ...read more

    Encouraging Dads To Tell Their Story Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 8, 2021
     | 2,206 views

    You see, the gospel is not just something you hold onto but the gospel has its hold on you. The power of the Gospel on a person is most evident when you see its hold on a person.

    Happy Father’s Day! Dads, there are too few good fathers around. Dads, I want to speak to encourage you to deepen your commitment to living a life of integrity in Christ. To know Jesus is to have a story of how you came to know Jesus. This story is often referred to as your “testimony.” In fact, ...read more

    Delusions That Defy Common Sense

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 16, 2021
     | 2,269 views

    The world system and all who live by it apart are deluded by both the devil and their own depraved minds. They believe they have everything figured out and can live without the intervention of God Almighty. Scripture proves otherwise.

    The apostle Paul told the church at Corinth that there is a time to put away childish things and assume the maturity and responsibility expected of an adult or mature young person (1 Corinthians 13:11). The time comes for everyone to grow up and realize that the world and all you know does not ...read more

    Dodging Decisions Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jun 21, 2021
     | 1,842 views

    What is often passed off as indecisiveness or propriety or procrastination is a dishonest attempt to keep from honoring what is right and fair. We can see Felix’s motives as an example. We can also see how God can use such red tape.

    Dodging Decisions (Acts 24:1-27) 1. So today we honor our graduates, and we honor our fathers. 2. I will honor our graduates with a joke: Why did Mary want to work at a Kentucky Fried Chicken outlet even though she'd received her B.A. degree? Because it had been on her bucket list for a long ...read more

    Paul emphasized the importance of maintaining a pure conscience, and we should do likewise. Message provides five keys to caring for our conscience and teaches how a pure conscience facilitates faith for answered prayer.

    Intro Last week we introduced the subject of conscience. We identified what the conscience is and how it works. It is not a perfect guide because its moral judgment is based on the knowledge it has. But we are constituted in such a way that if we violate conscience, we become laden with guilt and ...read more

    Convicted, But Not Converted

    Felix was born a slave, but eventually worked his way up to Governor of Judea. He trembled under the power of the Holy Spirit, yet wasn't converted. Many today are close, but miss salvation.

    CONVICTED, BUT NOT CONVERTED Acts 24:22-27 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Louie and his wife were listening to the radio when they heard the weather report: "A snow emergency has been declared. You must park your car's on the odd-numbered side of the street." So Louie got up and moved ...read more
