    A Fight To The Finish - Stephen, A Man Who Finished Strong

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on May 10, 2022
     | 5,015 views

    How could Stephen finish so strong? How could he pray for your enemies so fervently? I believe there are several things that Stephen did that made all the difference and allowed him to finish strong. Stephen started out right.

    Sermon: A Fight to the Finish - Stephen, A Man Who Finished Strong Scripture Lessons - Acts 6:8-15 “Stephen, a man full of God’s grace and power, performed amazing miracles and signs among the people. 9 But one day some men from the Synagogue of Freed Slaves, as it was called, started to debate ...read more

    Rapid growth, constant persecution and limited resources made the Apostles rethink their future and the future of the church. They reorganized their ministry team to maximze their efficiency and effectiveness. Let;s see how!

    Sermon Restructuring The Church For Expansion Acts 8:1-8 “Saul was one of the witnesses, and he agreed completely with the killing of Stephen.

    We can either spend our lives focused on the problems of life, or we can spend our time focusing on the Problem Solver. We can focus on what is wrong, or we can focus on the One who can make it right. Let's look at a Deacon and the legacy of love that he has left for us to remember.

    Acts 7:54-60 “Love like Jesus Loves” May 29, 2022 Intro: Beginning at Acts 6:8 through the close of this chapter, Luke records the ministry and martyr of Deacon Stephen. Stephen was one of the seven men chosen to be the first Deacons of the early church. He was a man filled with the ...read more

    The Treasure Of Scripture Over The Experience Of People: A Warning

    When the rich man in hell begged for Lazarus to be sent back to warn his family about avoiding his fate, Abraham reminded him that they had the Scriptures. Nothing else has ever been used of the LORD other than His Word to convict the sinner.

    Whenever a real man of God stands behind the pulpit and preaches the Word of God (2 Timothy 4:1-5), he is to hold nothing back and never compromise the Scriptures for the sake of feeling, alleged offense, or cultural beliefs. No preacher worth his sacred calling should ever water down the power ...read more

    If you make any effort to live for God, you will face opposition. If you’ve never run into Satan, it’s because you and he are traveling parallel in the same direction.

    In the early part of Acts, we are introduced to 5 brief biographies that I want to introduce to you now. If you enjoy reading a biography, then you’ll benefit from these short bios. Think of these five men as the Mount Rushmore of the early chapters of Acts, if you will. A week ago we saw the ...read more

    God works strategically so that all races are included. God is working to populate heaven with all kinds of color. The Holy Spirit wants us to move past the barrier of the races.

    We love to tell the “before and after” stories. Weight loss - I lost 100 pounds! Before and after for dental cosmetics commercials. Rogaine – I have hair! Or look at this one: meet my wife’s first husband (show picture of younger me) -:). Acts loves to tell “before and after” stories as well. Only ...read more

    Acts Of The Apostles (11 Of 39)

     | 1,305 views

    Chapters 6 and 7, told us how God used the great deacon, Stephen, and how he gave his life for the gospel.

    Now we are going to study about how that affected the church. When some people who belong to church die, it does not have much of an impact on God's work, because they did not love the Lord, or His church. But when a man like Stephen dies, it leaves a vacuum for some time. Look at verse ...read more

    There is a story told of a football game between two teams, the small animals and the big animals.

    In the first half, the big animals were winning. The score was 70 to nothing when half-time came. When the second half began, the big animals got in their huddle and planned their strategy.

    Don’t be surprised or ashamed by the fire. Instead, be glad in the fire, glory in the fire, and give yourself to God in the fire.

    Kathryn Leatherwood from Washington, Ohio, recalls spending a week with a roomful of VBS preschoolers. Many of them had been first-timers and attended with loud protests. Toward the end of the week, she noticed Jessica adjusting her colorful headband with a look of frustration. After quieting yet ...read more

    Persecuted? Rejoice And Be Glad!!!

     | 3,787 views

    Why would a person who hungers and thirsts for righteousness, a person who is merciful and has a pure heart, why would a person who is a peacemaker be persecuted? Because the evil one hates the Righteous One!

    Persecuted? Rejoice and Be Glad!

    Death separates us from someone we love and oftentimes causes pain of grief! This sermon helps us to understand grief as a normal response to a loss. But it can become an emotional problem if we don't deal with it rightly.

    This afternoon, I will continue the sermon series of “The Bible and Emotional Problems.” We will discuss the topic "Biblical and Psychological Perspectives on Grief” today and next Sunday. In the past two weeks, we prayed at the Prayer Meetings and Sunday Services for Pastor Paulus Kurnia and ...read more
