Marks of A Servant Leader/Follower 1 Thessalonians 5:12-15 There is a term that I find used in the New Testament Scripture, which is used of all Christians. It is the term brother.

When one is told that their faith is great, it bears our study and meditation. What were the marks of this Canaanite ladies’ faith? There are at least four marks of great faith!
The Marks of Great Faith Matthew 15:21-28 Jesus Christ did not exaggerate or mince words. He spoke the truth and the truth alone. When He applauds someone’s faith as "great," then it ought to make us take notice. Only twice, both with Gentiles, does Jesus Christ call someone’s faith "great." ...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.

Scripture: Mark 13:29-36
In the four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, there are over 60 references to the scribes, and over 80 references to the Pharisees.
Most of these references were made by Jesus, Himself. No doubt these people were awkward for Jesus to have to deal with. Jesus had a desire for all souls to be saved from their sins. Nevertheless, Jesus did find Himself having to rebuke the Scribes and Pharisees for the way they lived their ...read more
Scripture: Mark 12:38-40
Abram settled his tents in the place that God had called him. From beginning to the end of this story, though he failed many times, he always built and alter to the Lord.
As we spoke about Genesis 12 last week, we saw that there was a famine in the land and Abram took a natural, commonsensical path and made his way down to Egypt. While in Egypt, we didn’t see Abram erect monuments to or call upon his God - instead he took what he felt was the smartest, most ...read more

BELIEVING is more than simply saying the right things. BELIEVING is the way we receive all the benefits of God’s eternal plan.
Acts 11:26 (NLT) It was at Antioch that the believers were first called Christians. The title is actually only used 3 times in scripture (Acts 11:26 ; Acts 26:28 ; 1 Peter 4:16) But in the New Testament other terms were more commonly used, followers, disciples and BELIEVERS. Acts 5:12 ...read more

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
