    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

    May I Persuade You?

    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

    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.

    To “die on third” in baseball lingo equates to being “almost persuaded” in matters pertaining to one’s spiritual life.

    DON’T DIE ON THIRD! 27 "King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know that you do believe." 28 Then Agrippa said to Paul, "You almost persuade me to become a Christian." 29 And Paul said, "I would to God that not only you, but also all who hear me today, might become both almost and altogether ...read more
