    Preaching From Philippians #2

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022
     | 1,022 views

    One of the reasons that it is a sin for Christians to take drugs or drink alcoholic beverages is because these are substances that control our behavior.

    These are things that will ruin our lives and cause us to make fools out of ourselves. There is no way that a Christian can be controlled by the Holy Spirit if they are controlled by these substances. But these are not the only things that control Christians. For example, there are many ...read more

    Preaching The Unadulterated Word Of God

    As we were growing up, many of our parents tried to warn us about dangers that we faced, but we could not see them until later in life.

    As the children of God, we used to wonder what the Word of God was warning us about in Matthew 24:22-23. We read, “And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is ...read more

    Preaching From Philippians #1

     | 1,765 views

    In Paul’s writings, his greetings varied from church to church. He made the greetings fit the church he was addressing and the things he wanted to talk about.

    For example, when he wrote to the Corinthians he stated that he was an Apostle in his greetings. Look at 1 Cor. 1:1 “Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother.” He did not mention that he was an Apostle in his address to the Philippians! He ...read more

     | 1,433 views

    In the last sermon, we dealt with Paul stating that whether he lived or died, his purpose for living was for the Lord Jesus.

    When he wrote to the Philippian church, he was in prison. In prison he knew that he faced a capital crime and that he might be executed. If you were in prison and you thought that you might die, what kind of letter would you write? We do not have to guess at what kind of letter the Apostle Paul ...read more

    In Chapter one, Paul let these Christians in Philippi know that he wanted to come to them, but couldn’t because he was in jail.

    He also wanted them to know that his being in jail might bring about his death, but if it did, they were not to let it shake their faith in the Lord Jesus. He did not want them to feel sorry for him or for themselves, because Paul let it be known that for him “TO LIVE IS CHRIST AND TO DIE IS ...read more

     | 1,850 views

    This little passage of scripture is loaded with wonderful teachings about the Lord Jesus Christ. Some believe it is one of the greatest passages in the Bible concerning the Lord Jesus Christ.

    It gives us a picture of the humility of Christ like we have never seen before. If the church today is ever going to accomplish anything for the Lord, we are going to have to know and possess the humility of Christ. Illus: Some of the New Testament Christians caught this vision. The attitude of ...read more

     | 985 views

    In this passage of scripture, Paul talks to the Philippian Christians about salvation. That may seem strange because these people said they were Believers.

    A good pastor deals with the subject of salvation for two reasons: (1) He knows it is a possibility that many are deceived about their salvation. The Lord Himself dealt with this deception in Matthew 7:22-23, we read, “Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy ...read more

    As we look at the life of the apostle Paul in this passage of scripture, we see that he is in jail.

    Illus: A man that was in prison was asked, “What is the worst thing about prison?” He said, “The worst thing about prison is that you are here and everybody that you love and care for are out there!” Paul knew exactly what this man was talking about. He was in prison and those that he loved and ...read more

    Paul’s life was like ours in that he had two kinds of friends.

    (1) HE HAD HIS SUNSHINE FRIENDS One of the sunshine friends was Demas. When things were going great, Demas was there, but when things got rough, Demas got going! Look at 2 Timothy 4:3, we read, “For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; ...read more

    When you consider that Paul is in jail, this verse takes on new meaning.

    Notice, he says, “Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord…” • We can understand someone who is not in jail writing to someone in jail trying to get them to do this. • It is unusual for a fellow who is in jail to be encouraging to those who are free to do this. This passage of scripture is ...read more

    We have all done our share of boasting. We generally start this bad habit of boasting when we are a child.

    Illus: Three boys are in the school yard bragging of how great their fathers are. • The first one says: "My father runs the fastest. He can fire an arrow and start to run, and he gets to the target before the arrow." • The second one says: "Ha! You think that's fast! My father ...read more

    Preaching From Philippians #11

    Many consider this passage of scripture to be one of the most important passages in the Bible. Once we get into these verses, it is easy to see why it is ranked so high by so many.

    The reason it is ranked so high is because this passage deals with the example we set before our FAMILY and FRIENDS. Every one of us has influence for GOOD or BAD! Illus: Even Jesse James had a gang that followed him around, and so do we. We have people under our influence. When we speak about ...read more

    All the nations on earth desire to have peace, but as you know, all nations do not have peace. There is a reason for that. For example, many Americans discovered during the Iraq war that peace comes at a high price. This is difficult for many Americans to comprehend because of two reasons:

    (1) As Americans, we are used to watching Clint Eastwood ride into town on a horse, and in one hour clean up the meanest town in the west. We wonder why the United States military can’t do the same in one hour! (2) Americans see other nations are having wars on their streets, but we have never ...read more

    Today we conclude our study in the book of Philippians by looking at some of the professional secrets of Paul’s success in the Christian life.

    Everyone has trade secrets in their profession. Illus: A married couple shared some marriage secrets about why they had a happy marriage. • They said, “One reason we have a happy marriage is that we go two times a week to a nice restaurant, she goes Tuesday's, I go Friday's.” • Another ...read more
