    We see in Paul's prayer of thanksgiving for Philemon the reality of a forgiven childe of God. He was not only forgiven but Paul points out He is an agent of forgiveness.

    Intro: Today across America there will probably be many sermons based around the theme of love. How appropriate that Paul in this personal letter to Philemon commends him for his love having feet and hands. If you remember from last week that Paul was calling Philemon to forgive his run away ...read more

     | 6,246 views

    Jesus Christ taught that the path to heaven was very narrow and very few find it as many misguidedly choose to travel wrong paths. The bottom line is that salvation is a matter of the mouth and heart.

    A Mouth and Heart Matter Romans 10:1-13 The Philippian jailer asked in Acts 16, “What must I do to be saved?” Another way of asking this question is, “How do I get to go to heaven?” When people are asked this question a myriad of answers pour forth. Jesus Christ taught that ...read more
