    Can You Hear Me Now? Series

    based on 31 ratings
     | 8,025 views

    Facing obstacles to sharing the gospel is common, but God will find listeners who learn to live for Jesus. When one door closes he opens another.

    Here in Acts 28:16-28 Paul explains himself, the gospel and their rejection of it. Why I’m wearing these chains. Why Jesus is the Christ. Why do your hearts reject him, and where will God go from here. Jenny and I were walking along in the neighborhood a few weeks ago when we came across ...read more

     | 2,991 views

    The early Church had a bad reputation which helped it grow and we should cultivate such a bad repputation in our time.

    The Blessing of a Bad Reputation Acts 28:22 INTRO.:Paul is in Rome facing trial for preaching Christ. While waiting for his hearing before Caesar, he is permitted to have guests and to communicate with others. He calls the leaders of the local synagogue to explain his side of the issues before the ...read more

    Paul was a survivor and he outwitted, outplayed and outlasted the enemy! How did he do this? He did it by tapping into the Holy Spirit who empowered him with the necessary survival skills to make it all the way to the end!

    Fly High – Acts part 28 Opening Illustration: Blue Fish TV video clip on “Man trapped in a hole.” Thesis: Paul was a survivor and he outwitted, outplayed and outlasted the enemy!

     | 6,555 views

    Here at the end of the book of Acts, we find Paul under house arrest, but still acting as a servant. What are the characteristics of such a servant?

    Passage: Acts 28:17-31 Intro: I heard on the radio the other day that Acts is not a book of theology, but rather a book of history. 1. I agree to a point. It is the record of the early church and what they did. 2. but at the same time, it is a record of the works of God, and so we can ...read more

    Lessons From Jeremiah – Part 20 – Teach Your Generation - And Wicked Men In Nations Lie In Wait For Evil Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 13, 2024
     | 841 views

    Have the churches been faithful in relaying the gospel, or has Christianity become something infused into the culture without being a dynamic force? Wicked men flourish. In Judah the people were spiritually blind and deaf. We need to take note ourselves.

    PERSONAL STUDY AND TEACHING IN JEREMIAH – PART 20 – TEACH YOUR GENERATION - AND WICKED MEN IN NATIONS LIE IN WAIT FOR EVIL PART 20 - Jeremiah 5:18-27 CHAPTER 5 [A].

    Paul's Difficult Journey To Rome Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 14, 2024
     | 694 views

    And Paul took his mission seriously. For two full years it looks like the entire Praetorian guard rotated through his house, one legion member at a time.

    Saturday of the 7th Week of Easter 2024 If you have been following the readings from the Acts of the Apostles every day in our service, it looks like Paul appealed to Caesar yesterday and magically he is entering Rome today. That’s because we left off on chapter 25 yesterday and opened up to the ...read more

    Advancing Without Hindrance

     | 23,119 views

    In our own lives, as well as in the life of the church, there are barriers to advancement, but they are nowhere near as difficult as our spiritual hindrances.

    When I entered junior high school, I was introduced to track and field games – to things like the 100-yard dash, relay races, and, most of all, the hurdles. As any red-blooded American boy would have done, I had done my share of running and climbing and bicycling and the like. But hurdles I had ...read more

    This sermon explains how spiritual gifts are tied to the resurrection and how we therefore should respond to them.

    Paul - The Model Mailman

    Paul epitomizes the ideal scriptural mailman as it can be said, "Neither rain, nor sleet, nor dark of night can keep this courageous courier from the swift completion of his appointed task."

    Paul - The Ideal Mailman (Acts 28) Mitchell Kendall engraved this famous saying on the New York City post office, taken from Herodutus about the diligence of the Persian mailmen during the heat of their battles with the Greeks in 500 B.C.

    Paul arrives in Rome

    i. PRAYER ii. Introduction a. Someone came up to me last week and said that they almost got seasick from last week’s message, and Paul’s experiences there on the Mediterranean Sea were certainly compelling. b.

    For Lent and for Black History Month, with a focus on Africa: the purposes of God will be accomplished, though not without difficulties and sacrifice. Examples of African Christians to show this truth.

    I cannot imagine how Paul did it. Here he is, in prison, chained to a soldier, and he is talking about hope and making plans for the future. How can anyone with half a brain do that? Does he not understand how perilous is his predicament? Chained! Awaiting trial! And yet he can say, “It is ...read more

    Paul safely escapes shipwreck only to have a snake come out of the fire and bite him. Instead of panicking or making a big show of how "bullet proof" he was, the Apostle simply goes about the business of serving God. It’s a great lesson for us when we fac

    Doesn’t it seem like something (or someone) didn’t want Paul to reach Rome? Angry mobs, corrupt leaders (both Israeli and Roman), then even the wind and waves seem to conspire to destroy Paul or crash him up against the rocks—anything to keep him from reaching God’s intended destination. But as ...read more
