    The Apostle Paul's defence before King Agrippa

    My text this evening is Acts 26 and verse 28, King Agrippa’s reply to Paul where he says, “Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian?” Now these eight little words have to be the saddest ever to grace the pages of the Bible. It strikes at the very heart of the problem of men and women living in ...read more

    An envangelistic message based on the popular game show "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire"

    "Is That Your Final Answer?" It’s amazing what catches on and what doesn’t in our culture, isn’t it? ABC’s game show "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" became a smash hit last year and a rating champions-so much so that they run the show several night a week. Regis Philbin has become a superstar. ...read more

    Over & over again, the world is doing its best to plant some visions in our minds. Well, God is in the business of planting visions, too.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (Revised: 2012) ILL. I heard a story some time ago of a missionary in Africa who gave a Bible to an African man. When it was given to him, the man hugged it close & expressed great appreciation for the ...read more

    God went to any means necessary to show us His love, now He has called us to go to use any means necessary to show that love to our community.

    New Year’s Revolution (By Any Means Necessary, part 2) (This sermon is my own adaptation of John Wesley’s "Almost Christian" sermon) Intro I have often wondered why Christianity has ceased to be popular. Why are all of our denominations in decline? Why is it that 95% of all churches in America ...read more

    Paul’s appearance before King Agrippa.

    Tonight I would like to continue the “Who Wants to Be A Millionaire” theme. I don’t know if you have noticed when you watch the show, but on the first five questions Regis rarely asks the contestant if that is their final answer. Typically, this is because these first five questions are meant to ...read more

    We learn from Paul in the book of Acts the performance of a true or real witness.We will consider seven things a true witness does.

    A TRUE WITNESS ACTS 26:22-23 If you take a Bible Concordance and look up the word, witness, or witnessing or witnessed, you will find they are mentioned 33 times in the book of Acts. The word witness is found first in Acts 1:8 and the last time in Acts 26:22. In Acts 1:8, you find the power of ...read more

    May I Persuade You?

    Contributed by Mike Richardson on May 15, 2001
    based on 104 ratings
     | 3,542 views

    If I could persuade you to do just one thing in this life it would not be to become a millionaire or to do some magnificent feat for fame. It would be to turn to Jesus as your Savior.

    INTRO: The word "persuade" means "to convince, win over or convert" I believe that you and I are responsible for presenting the facts of the Gospel. Preach the truth without comprimise. But the Holy Spirit is who works the convincing in the person’s heart. We don’t convert, convince or win ...read more

    Exploding Manhole Covers Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 31, 2003
    based on 7 ratings
     | 3,795 views

    A series of exploding manhole covers in Washington is compared with the series of unexpected and disruptive events in Paul’s life. Surviving becomes a matter of one’s vision of where we have come from and where we are going.

    It all started in Georgetown. On M Street, in broad daylight, a manhole cover suddenly exploded into the air, flying six feet straight up and landing with a heavy clatter. There were no injuries, but there were fiery flames, an acrid smell, cars dodging one another, pedestrians pumping ...read more
