    The Whole Secret Of Strength

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 21, 2003
    based on 25 ratings
     | 7,088 views

    Ordination sermon, involving a play on the names of Samson in the Bible and Sampson, the ordinand, an entertainer, puppeteer, and beauty pageant winner. The whole secret of strength is in using the gifts God has given for ministry and not for one’s self.

    The world didn’t give it, and the world can’t take it away. Isn’t that what we sing. I’m not so sure. What do you think? The world didn’t give it? I agree. That’s true. But the world can’t take it away? I am not at all sure. We are here today because Yolanda Sampson has heard the ...read more

    Samson lost all by compromising his committment to God. Where is his hope? Where is OUR hope?

    And Samson did not know that the LORD had left him. But the Philistines took him, put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza. There they bound him with chains of brass, and set him to grinding in the prison house. (Judges 16:20-21) Recall the story of Samson’s downfall. Samson was the original ...read more

    In life we must realize that everyone that smiles in your face isn’t always your friend. Every body standing in your corner is not always in your corner. Smiling faces do at times tell lies.

    Sermonic Theme: “Everybody Is Not Your Friend” with the undercutting theme of “Smiling Faces Tell Lies” Now whichever theme suits your need, you have a choice. Everybody Is Not Your Friend, or Smiling Faces Tell Lies. This sermon is one of great difficulty and pain to preach because when my ...read more

    Samson was reckless. He became arrogant in his self pursuits always assuming that God would bless him because he was special. He virtually abandoned his spiritual life over the course of 20 years then was shocked that God was gone. In the end, he lost

    Last week we learned that Samson was special. Even before he was born God had put a call on his life and all Samson had to do was walk into his calling. His calling was clear, God wanted to use Samson to move the Israelites out of their complacency because they were losing their identity. They ...read more

    Samson had all the resources to be a great hero, except for one thing, a powerful lust. What makes this man a candidate for the hall of fame in Hebrews 11:32? What makes us potential heroes for God?

    WHEN HEROES FAIL US Are there any heroes left? Do you have anyone in your life you would consider a hero? Are there men or women who you look up to?

     | 8,397 views

    Samson confronts the Philistines while the Israelites cower and wonder about their future. What they don’t realize is that allowing evil to continue will destroy their future.

    THE PERILS OF CONFRONTING EVIL “The only thing necessary for the triumph [of evil] is for good men to do nothing” (Edmund Burke, English Philosopher). Confrontation is never easy. It is probably the last thing any of us really wants to do. When we see a brother or sister in Christ behaving ...read more
