Sermons on Deliver Up:

Asking Both Kings For The Wall

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 15, 2010

For every significant task, there is the "sit-down" approach and the "rise-up" approach. We need both to sit down and pray and then to rise up and do, but even then by involving the resources of others. Lone wolves are not appropriate.

How To Please God

Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Feb 7, 2025

The people of Israel were slack in taking up their inheritance in The Promised Land, are we slackers also, not taking up the freedom we can have, the abundant life we can have in Christ Jesus?

The Answer Is Yes!

Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Sep 3, 2017

A Humble Walk

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 25, 2010

FBC Gaithersburg: funeral for Julia McNeely Vance, centenarian, physician, daughter of Irish Baptists. Text and poem requested by family. Julia's commitments, nurtured early, brought her into an unusual life. Not delivered by me because of illness.

That classically Irish face looks out at me from the printed page, and I wonder what it must have been like for Julia McNeely, born a century ago, to have grown up and to have followed her calling. On one side were all the customs and expectations of her day and time … that women would live ...read more

Be An Example Of Jesus

Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 10, 2015

We live in a mixed up world. People are so untrained in the Bible and mixed up about what a Christian is, that nearly anything can be labelled “Christian” and they’ll believe it. Let's look at what one is.
