Sermons on Paul At Rome:

Bold In Our Hope Series

Contributed by James Parker on Mar 6, 2011

I am so thankful to God that I do not have hope in this life only. For if we do, the Apostle Paul states in 1 Corin 15 verses 17-19 that we are men that are most miserable.

A-Z of Boldness Bold in our HOPE 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 Over the past several weeks we have been looking at the A-Z of Boldness.

Contributed by Gordon Weatherby on May 4, 2013

Timothy had a major challenge in ministering to the Church at Ephesus. To accomplish that task Paul told him he needed a strong faith in Christ. If he didn’t have that, it was possible that he, himself could become a spiritual ship-wreck. We too need tha

Prepare For Peace Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on Nov 16, 2007

Paul delivers some closing exhortations to the Philippian saints which will result in God-given peace. He tells them that if they engage in proper prayer, proper ways of thinking and follow his teaching and example, they will experience peace.

1. The first preparation for peace is looking to the right source (6-7) 2. The second preparation for peace is living with the right mind (8) 3.

Pharaoh's Heart Is Hardened. Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 16, 2022

Paul and the other apostles refused to obey commands from people in authority to stop preaching the gospel, for instance (Acts 5:27–29). They did, however, submit to those in authority in all matters that were not in contradiction to the will of God.

Pharaoh's Heart Is Hardened. Exodus 7:13 Yet Pharaoh’s heart became hard, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said. – Exodus 7:13, NIV COMMENTARY God HARDENS Pharaoh’s Heart BECAUSE … 1. God Was Responsible for This Pharaoh Coming To Power. This Accords With Rom. ...read more

The Book Of Philemon Commentary; Part 1 Series

Contributed by John Lowe on May 30, 2021

Philemon (meaning "beloved") has only one chapter; it was written to the man called Philemon, and that is almost all we know about this person, except, of course, that which can be ascertained from the Epistle itself. It is short and of a private nature,

Gathering For Strength Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Aug 28, 2021

Paul calls the Philippians to stand firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel. His relationship with the church in Philippi illustrates what he's talking about. It's challenging!

[INTRODUCTION AND RECAP] We’re doing a series on ‘why Christians gather together.’ We’re emerging from the Covid pandemic and the various lockdowns and we’ve started to meet together in person so it seems a good time to ask why we gather together. I am loosely following a sermon series I found on ...read more

You're Too Kind! Series

Contributed by Michael Mays on Sep 14, 2021

Paul ends this epistle with making sure the Philippians know that, regardless of how both contented and empowered he is in Christ, he is still very thankful to them for their remarkable kindness to him, and that it didn't go unnoticed.

I. Intro A. According to the WASHINGTON POST, a church ordered a pizza from Domino’s during a church service.

The Anatomy Of Conversion

Contributed by Frank Lay on Mar 4, 2005

As we examine Paul’s conversion story we can find a simple outline that will help us as we bear witness to others. You ought to write this outline down: 1. My life before I met Christ. 2. How I came to know Christ. 3. The difference Christ has made in

THE ANATOMY OF CONVERSION Acts 26:1-32 One of the most effective witness that we can give is that of our own personal experience with Jesus Christ. After all that’s what witnessing is all about.

The Greatness Of God Series

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Mar 26, 2017

I recently ran across a statistic compiled by a German scholar. He determined that in Paul’s 13 epistles, he uses the term “In Christ” or some form of it ~ “in Him”, “in the Lord” ~ no less than 164 times! Paul loved to talk about Jesus!

Not Without The Lord You Don’t.

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Sep 10, 2024

The apostle Paul had the ability to look back on his life journey. (We all reminisce, don't we)? I’m sure He remembered, his training, his year of study, the discipline, his attitude toward law breakers, but now Paul is aware of his lack, and his need for spirit leadership.

Second Journey Series

Contributed by Duane Wente on Jun 12, 2023

After preaching to Jews and Gentiles on his first trip, Paul takes off again, hoping to encourage the new believers. His plans, though, change when God has other ideas about where he should go. Acts shares with us what God had in mind for Paul on his second journey.

Sermon: Encouragement To Press On

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Dec 9, 2025

Paul’s inspiring testimony of commitment forces us to look at our own lives—do we have the strategy we need to overcome our challenges? Or do we let our failures derail our dreams? And what could we accomplish if we were committed enough and had the strength not to give up?

Subject: Encouragement to Press On Text: Philippians 3:7-14 “But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count ...read more

Living The Invitation: Jesus’ Way Of Evangelism

Contributed by Chris Layton on Jul 24, 2025

Paul’s joy wasn’t in perfect preachers—it was in Christ being shared. But how do we share Christ effectively? Jesus Himself showed us the way. Let’s look at four ways Jesus lived out the invitation to His love and grace, and how we can follow His example.

Living the Invitation: Jesus’ Way of Evangelism Introduction Have you ever invited someone to a celebration, only to hear them say, “I don’t go to church—it’s full of hypocrites”? That stings, but it points to our calling: to live in a way that draws people to Jesus’ love, like inviting them to ...read more

Message 18 - 1thessalonians Chapter 5:23 – May The God Of Peace Sanctify You Preserving Body, Soul And Spirit Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jan 13, 2023

Can we properly divide the terms – spirit, soul, body? We serve the God of Peace whose aim is to make us sanctified (holy) before a holy God. So much has been done for us. We love Him because He first loved us. We look at Paul’s prayer for the Thessalonians.
