  • The Marks Of A True Believer

    Contributed by Patrick Agbonkpolor on Aug 2, 2021
     | 4,771 views

    Irrespective of our denominations, we can only validate the genuineness of our Christian Faith from the evidence of the scriptures.

    THE MARKS OF A TRUE BELIEVER TEXT: MARK 8:34-38 " And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever ...read more

    In the previous sermon we talked about the signs of the end times. Some folks do not enjoy studying the signs of His coming.

    Illus: Listen, when I go down the road and I see a sign that tells me there is a sharp curve up ahead or a steep hill, I find these signs helpful. But sometimes signs are confusing. Illus: Two preachers are standing by the side of the road, holding up a sign that reads, “The End is Near! Turn ...read more

    This can be a difficult chapter to understand! It becomes difficult because some of the things the Lord talks about in this passage are BEFORE and some are AFTER the tribulation period.

    You can not take Matthew 24, 25, or Mark 13 and say this is how things are going to happen chronologically. Everything that the Lord said would happen, will happen, but not in the sequence He gives them. Notice, as the disciples were walking with Jesus past the Temple, they commented on the ...read more

    This scripture passage takes place on a Sabbath morning in the city of Jerusalem at the temple site.

    Perhaps there is a line of people getting ready to enter the temple for worship. The line leads to a small square room lined with metal collection boxes. The boxes have metal horns extending out of them so the giver can walk by these boxes and drop their coins in these long horns that lead to ...read more

    In the previous sermon, the Chief priests, lay leaders, and the Sadducees came to the Lord with some questions.

    They did not come wanting to know what the scriptures taught, they came using the scriptures as a means of trying to trap the Lord Jesus. But the Lord said to them in verse 24, “…Do you not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?” A lot of folks think they ...read more

    Most preachers enjoy the preaching of God’s Word. Why shouldn’t they…they have one of the greatest and most rewarding jobs that a person could have.

    But every preacher has to deal with people who attend to hear him preach the sermon, but do not come to hear God’s Word preached! They come to find fault with what he preaches. For example, • One Bible preacher was preaching a sermon from the Word of God, and he stated that a lot of the ...read more

  • The Book Of Mark #57

    In 1858, the Illinois legislature, using an obscure statute, sent Stephen A. Douglas to the U.S. Senate instead of Abraham Lincoln, although Lincoln had won the popular vote.

    When a sympathetic friend asked Lincoln how he felt, he said he felt, “Like the boy who stubbed his toe: I am too big to cry and too badly hurt to laugh.” (Source unknown) All of us know that feeling. Life is filled with disappointments. Most of us will do anything to keep from having ...read more

    In September of 2005 John Roberts went before the Senate Judiciary Committee to be examined to see if he was qualified to serve on the Supreme Court as the Chief Justice.

    Many liked the comparison he made with being a judge to being an umpire in a baseball game. He stated that he felt that as a judge, he is not a player of the game, but it is his job to call the FOULS and STRIKES! All the evidence indicates that he will make a good chief justice. But that can not ...read more

  • The Book Of Mark # 15

    The calling of the twelve disciples is significant. These twelve men were special in that they were chosen to be the twelve disciples that the Lord Jesus Himself was going to teach and train.

    These twelve men had opportunities that no other men who ever lived on this earth have had. Each disciple that Jesus called into the ministry had special skills. Many of them were fishermen, and He took their skill as fishermen and made them “fishers of men.” Let’s look at two things: I. THE ...read more

    Sometimes it is difficult to make a very good impression.

    Illus: An actor went to see a new agent one day and said, “You must have a look at my act; it really is innovative.” The agent gave him the nod, so he flew up to the ceiling, circled the room a few times and landed smoothly on the agent's desk. The agent said, “So you do bird ...read more

    This is a very interesting passage of scripture. I have asked the Lord to help me make it as clear as possible.

    Illus: I do not want to be like the woman who had a cat that she truly loved, named “Pumpkin”. She cherished this cat more than anything in her life. She had to go on a business trip and she had to leave Pumpkin home for her husband to take care of while she was gone. She left Pumpkin reluctantly; ...read more

    In this sermon I want to look at the Jewish Sabbath. When we start to look at some of the ridiculous things that the Jews taught about the Sabbath, it shocks us

    Illus: This reminds me of a young boy that found himself in the locker room of the local YWCA. When he was spotted, the room burst into screams of horror, with ladies grabbing towels and running for cover. The little boy watched in amazement and said “What’s the matter haven’t you ever seen a ...read more

    One of the good things about the Gospel of Mark is the way that he gives us a continuous flow of information in the life of Christ. For example:

    • In Mark 1:21, we read, “And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.” • After he got through in the synagogue, he left Capernaum to go to Peter’s house and He healed Peter’s mother-in-law and many more. • But as we come to chapter ...read more

    Many times it seems that we have GOOD NEWS or BAD NEWS brought to us. Sometimes we hear …

    • The bad news • The good news • The great news Illus: The day after a man lost his wife in a scuba diving accident, he was greeted by two grim-faced policemen at his door. "We're sorry to call on you at this hour, Mr. Wilkens, but we have some information about your wife." • ...read more

    We NEED each other to fulfill Christ’s mission. Therefore, our community of faith must be a PRIORITY in our lives.

    Marks Of A Missional Church Acts 2:42-47 When Amy and I were first married she worked at Brandon Hospital in Brandon, FL as a Unit Secretary on the Labor/Delivery floor. One of the things she and the other staff observed is what has been called the “lunar effect.” Every month when there was a full ...read more
