    Here Is A Trustworthy Saying

     | 7,828 views

    As pastors we know that proof texting is dangerous. It is even more dangerous to take two fragments of a "Trustworthy Saying" that spans three verses and use them to support a doctrine. With that in mind lets take a look at 2 Timothy 2:11-13.

    (This is a hybrid between a sermon manuscript and a sermon outline. I hope you can follow it and flesh it out in your own words as the Lord leads you.) Please open your Bibles to 2 Timothy 2:1-13 which we will read in a few minutes. 1st and 2nd Timothy and Titus are letters written to specific ...read more

    So we have Jesus as the Vine, God the Father as the Vinedresser, and us as the branches. Having made those distinctions, let me share with you the lessons I think we can learn from this passage.

    A while back we began a study of the times throughout the Gospel of John where Jesus said, “I am…” I am the Light of the world. I am the Door. I am the Good Shepherd. I am the Bread of Life. Tonight I want us to close out this series by looking at another one of these statements that Jesus ...read more

    How is God glorified? By the fruit we bear. And how do we bear fruit? By abiding in Jesus. He is the vine; we are the branches. Apart from him we can do nothing. No root, no fruit.

    The celebration of Palm Sunday has always been a bittersweet moment in the life of the Church: the palm branch represented victory, triumph and peace, but the people in the Palm Sunday Parade missed the distinct KIND of victory and peace demonstrated.
