     | 2,038 views

    A husband needs to follow the model of Jesus by providing selfless, loving servant- leadership with his wife.

    OPENING SENTENCE: A rather common but not recommended comment you might hear from a frustrated parent is, “Why can’t you be more like your older brother?” INTRODUCTION: Needless to say, it is intended to motivate the child to try harder and give him/her a model of what proper behavior should look ...read more

    Paul says to men: If you want to be a real man, “stand firm in the faith!” Men are to stand firm in both holding and defending the truths of the Gospel.

    On an Internet discussion board I found the following comments: Designer duds, hair gel, waxing appointments, manicures, and facials -- once upon a time, these terms were only associated with women, but nowadays, it seems, men are spending more time and money on looking good. Do the men you know ...read more

    The fact that we are alive testifies that we have a race to run, and that it requires endurance. Such races often stem from extreme misfortune. Some suffer from health conditions, or conditions of their own making. In any case, everyone has a race set before them.

    Note: I developed a simple set of homemade PowerPoint slides that I used in presenting this sermon. They're not fancy or professional quality, but if you're interested in having the PowerPoint file I will send it by Email.

    Kindness and gentleness are fruits of the Spirit. If there were a trial today and being kind and gentle were a crime, would there be enough evidence to convict us?

    Random Acts of Kindness Galatians 5:22-23, Luke 10:30-37 Illustration: The Courtroom drama. We all know the story, it’s the story of the good Samaritan and even those in the world who don’t know that Jesus originally told the story know what a good Samaritan is.

     | 9,413 views

    It appears that when the church leaders in Jerusalem had heard of Peter’s experience in Joppa at the home of Cornelius, they challenged his action and recalled him to Jerusalem for the purpose of justifying it.

    May 6, 2014 Commentary on the Acts of the Apostles By: Tom Lowe Lesson: III.D.7: Peter Defends Himself Before the Jerusalem Church (11:1-18) Scripture (Acts 11:1-18; KJV) 1 And the ...read more

  • Election In The Gospels And Acts Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,297 views

    There is no question that Jesus taught on the foreknowledge and election of the Father. We trace this teaching now throughout the history books of the New Testament.

    Matthew Fittingly in the New Testament, our first encounter with God's sovereignty is in regards to Jesus Himself. 1:21 gives us the words of the angel that His name will be Jesus. A small point, you say. Yet, here God intervenes in the process of childbirth and imposes His own will on a mother. ...read more

  • Act Like Men

    based on 1 rating
     | 12,076 views

    The people of God are engaged in a great battle. If we will engage the enemy and advance the cause of Christ, we need to heed the commands issued in this text.

    “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” The Christian Faith is a woman’s religion; and I’m glad this is so! Historically, women were excluded from religion. In the pagan religions extant at the time the Master presented Himself as a ...read more

    God is going to reach a lost world through the empowering of the Holy Spirit and His church. We depend on One and devote to building His church through the teaching of His Word, fellowship, communion and prayer.

    Reaching the lost world for Christ would necessarily mean the birth of the Church, the body of Christ, the gathering of believers in Christ. • This is a divine institution, not a man-made organisation. Through the Body of Christ the world will come to see Christ. • The Church is the ...read more

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on May 4, 2021
     | 3,158 views

    Peter and John were arrested after they healed a man born lame, as recorded in Acts 3. Now they're on trial, the next day, before a group of Israel's leaders. What happened next? (This is another outline from a miniseries on Acts I preached several years ago.)

    Introduction: In Acts 3, Luke records how Peter and John were on their way to the Temple to observe and take part in the afternoon time of prayer. While on the way there, they saw and then healed a man who had been lame from his birth. Peter preached another message to the crowd who had gathered in ...read more

    God sent an earthquake to draw out a jailor and saved his entire family. Worship God in the midst of difficulties. Your focus determines your reality.

    Amazing, God sent an earthquake to save a family. • Yes, the foundations of the prison were shaken. Yes, the prison doors were all opened. Yes, the chains were all broken. • But that was not the purpose of the earthquake. No one got away. Paul shouted, “We are all here!” Even after their ...read more

    This message deals with that Interim of Brokenness in a saint’s life because of some departure from the path of righteousness.

ZAIN mean Nourish, TETH means Good, Rejoice, and CHETH means BREAKDOWN. Thus, in between being Nourished on the Hope received from God’s Word and the ...read more
