    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,385 views

    Who has authority for faith and practise? The state? The Word? The message explores the continuing tension between government and church.

    “Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.” Throughout their long history as a people of faith, Baptists have consistently opposed any diminution of the rights of the individual to seek ...read more

     | 284 views

    This morning, we shall see how the failures of the Wilderness generation and their rejection of Yahweh for a golden calf became the paradigm for the Sanhedrin's rejection of Jesus for a Golden Temple made by hands.

    The Trial of Stephen, Part 5 Acts 7:36–41 NKJV He brought them out, after he had shown wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness forty years. “This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel, ‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me ...read more

    Sodom was guilty of "an abomination" - and when God saw it "He removed them." What was this abomination and what can that tell us about God's attitude toward this sin? Also, can this "abomination" be forgiven?

    OPEN: A man went to see a psychiatrist, and told him, "I’ve been doing some bad things, Doc, and my conscience is troubling me." The psychiatrist thought about that and then said: "And you want something that will STRENGTHEN your will power?" But the man replied, "Well, no. I was thinking of ...read more

    As Christians we're supposed to live a different life than those around us. But how can we do that when we're surrounded with so many temptations to do things we know we shouldn't do?

    Back in the 14th century, in the region we now call Belgium, there was a duke by the name of Raynald III. Raynald had a nickname – Crassus. Crassus means fat, and he was fat because he really liked to eat. He liked to EAT … a lot! In the course of time, he had a violent quarrel with his younger ...read more

    The message is a brief look at the transformation of Saul of Tarsus into the Apostle to the Gentiles. The maturation is not an unreachable goal for us as Christians; it is rather a model for our own growth toward maturity in Christ.

    “For some days [Saul] was with the disciples at Damascus. And immediately he proclaimed Jesus in the synagogues, saying, ‘He is the Son of God.’ And all who heard him were amazed and said, ‘Is not this the man who made havoc in Jerusalem of those who called upon this name? And has he not come ...read more

    When everything is theoretical,everyone loves to coexist, everyone celebrates diversity. Interfere with their lifestyle and you become part of the problem, not part of the solution.

    To say that there is one God hinders social harmony. To claim that there is only one way to salvation is an affront to our diversity. To allege that a belief is wrong is the ultimate bigotry. Christians are the problem - Christians not part of the solution. Paul and his companions run into ...read more

    A sermon on the Philippian Jailer

    One of the most amazing things about reading the Bible is the more you read it, the more you discover. No matter how many times you read or preach a passage, you can always find more gold if you keep digging. Psalm 119:127 Therefore I love Your commandments More than gold, yes, than fine gold! ...read more

    The Jailer

    The jailer’s decision was not any easy one. But despite the difficulties that lay ahead, he realized that the God who would bring him to those difficulties would also bring him through them.

    Jobs were hard to come by. He was a grown man, with a wife and children to provide for. He had been an OK farmer when they lived in the country — even managed to put away a little money for them to live on after the move to the big city. But he had no marketable skills to speak of. He wasn’t ...read more

    (Illustrating joke) When Beethoven passed away, he was buried in a churchyard.

    The reformation gave rise to many denominations, including the baptists. In this lesson we see how reformed theology is an important part of baptist history.

    When I began this series, I listed 14 individual lessons which we were going to cover regarding the history of the church. The goal of this course was not to cover every historical event in the past 2,000 years, as that would be beyond our grasp. But instead, it was to show the clear consistent ...read more

    Scripture I read a story when I was a student at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Chicago, IL. You will be appalled by the story I am about to relate to you. Appalled, that is, if you have any kind of social conscience. A poor black, living on Chicago’s South Side, sought to have her ...read more

    There was a certain course of events that led to the salvation of the Philippian jailer, and these have certain implications with reference to our witnessing today.

    The Jailer Who Received Jesus Text: Acts 16: 29-34 Intro: The portion of scripture we’ve just read is filled with suspense and excitement—the result of a midnight earthquake and an attempted suicide. Lest we view this account as merely a Bible story, let me be quick to remind us that these ...read more

    Exposition of the planting of the church at Philippi and truths valuable for our infant church.

    Many of the churches we read of the Apostle Paul’s foundational work in the book of Acts. When we turn the pages of history and take glance at this church some 40 years later, the church has become complacent spiritually. Not so with the church at Philadelphia. This church is praised for their ...read more
