     | 36,877 views

    This part is a continuation of the Holy Spirit's role in the functioning of the New Testament church which began in Part 4 of this series. In this part we examine the greater and lesser gifts and functions of apostles and prophets in the early church.

    This nine-part series was originally developed for a class environment, and later adapted for use in a prison ministry conducted via correspondence. Because of that background, questions were developed for each lesson for participants to use in a setting conducive to discussion, or as handouts for ...read more

    We examine the tricky problem of church finances and what is paid to pastors and church workers. Who are those who genuinely do the work of the Lord? I quote from an excellent sermon on gospel support as well.

    When buying the right home price, foundation and location play a huge role in our selection but what choosing our eternal home? Is not our eternal home so much better than any physical one?

    Choosing the right home is not an easy task. Recently my wife and I went through the process of buying a new home. To say it was challenging would be an understatement! After all, a home is one of the most expensive items that a person invests in during their lifetime … so you want to ...read more

    Who do you say Jesus is? Not just with your lips, but with your heart, your life, and your soul. Scripture warns us—not everyone who speaks the name of Jesus knows the real Jesus. Some deny Him, others distort Him, and some even deceive themselves.

Anyone who denies the Father and the Son is an antichrist.” Introduction: Knowing the Real Jesus Matters Church, I want to begin with a question that echoes through eternity: Who do you ...read more

    This message deals with Evangelizing the community who desperately needs to hear about coming to Jesus Christ. The fullness of the Holy Spirit in a Christians life is the power to witness to the unsaved.

    Jesus Christ - Yesterday, Today and Forever. What does this mean when we face difficulties, when loss and change happen to us? Our congregation just learned of the resignation of its Senior Pastor. This sermon was written for that Sunday.

    This message looks at ministry or service. “Every believer isn’t a pastor, but every believer is called into ministry. God calls all believers to minister to the world and the church. Service in the body isn’t optional for Christians” - Rick Warren

    This morning we’ll be viewing the purpose of “ministry” or “service.” In The Purpose Driven Life, Rick Warren says, “Growing up, you may have thought that being ‘called’ by God was something only missionaries, pastors, nuns, and other ‘full-time’ church workers experienced, but the Bible says ...read more

    In shifting to a blitzkrieg examination of the role of the church in the Book of Acts, I reworked my sermon on Acts 1. This has some repetition with the other one posted a couple of years ago, but has some new material, too.

    Do any of you know what is the last word in the Book of Acts? It is ακωλυτως, pronounced “ah-koh-LOO-tohs” by some and “ah-koh-LEE-tohs” by others, and means “not-hindered,” “not prevented,” “not ...read more
