Sermons on Paul Mccartney:

Preaching From Philippians #6

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022

In this passage of scripture, Paul talks to the Philippian Christians about salvation. That may seem strange because these people said they were Believers.

A good pastor deals with the subject of salvation for two reasons: (1) He knows it is a possibility that many are deceived about their salvation. The Lord Himself dealt with this deception in Matthew 7:22-23, we read, “Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy ...read more

Preaching From Philippians #4

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022

In Chapter one, Paul let these Christians in Philippi know that he wanted to come to them, but couldn’t because he was in jail.

He also wanted them to know that his being in jail might bring about his death, but if it did, they were not to let it shake their faith in the Lord Jesus. He did not want them to feel sorry for him or for themselves, because Paul let it be known that for him “TO LIVE IS CHRIST AND TO DIE IS ...read more

Paul instructs the elder in broad strokes to exert himself to excel. In these instructions is a pattern for all who pursue the Master if they will honour Him.

The Secret Of Contentment In God's Service

Contributed by Michael Stark on Oct 4, 2014

Elusive as a will 'o the wisp, contentment is the heritage of God's people. Paul provides practical instruction for believers to find contentment in their service to Christ.

“I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me. You were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity. Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I ...read more

Identifying The Unbeliever

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Jul 9, 2024

Apostle Paul told Corinth's members to not be yoked to unbelievers. Who is an unbeliever? Does scripture identify them for us?

As we continue our study on 1 Corinthians chapter 7, we are introduced to someone identified as an unbeliever; spoken of when Apostle Paul wrote this letter to Corinth. For us to identify unbelievers we need to read 2 Corinthians 6:14-16. This is one passage identifying two types of unbelievers. 2 ...read more

Foregoing Our Rights Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 8, 2022

Paul did not use his rights because of his concern for the witness of the Gospel and the welfare of the people he is reaching out to.

Everyone has rights. We can stand up for our rights. We ask for what we deserve. • Yet it is not always necessary for us to do so. There are times when we need to forego legitimate rights for a higher good. I came across what was trending two days ago – “Don’t Treat Us Like We Owe You a Living” – ...read more

Head Coverings Are Not Biblical (1 Corinthians 11:2-16) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Aug 20, 2022

Women are full partners with men in worship, prayer, and service. Verses 4-10 are a quotation of the Corinthian argument, which Paul refutes.

Today, we have the privilege of wrestling with 1 Corinthians 11:2-16. This passage has been called the most complicated, difficult passage in the NT (N.T Wright). Some of the most brilliant minds in NT studies have said that the key to the passage has not yet been unlocked (G. B. Caird). Almost ...read more

What The Bible Teaches About Prayer

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 13, 2025

During the days of the apostle Paul, there were no Bible colleges and seminaries as we have today to train young ministers as we have.

Illus: When a young man felt God was calling him into the ministry, we take it for granted that if he can, he will go to Bible college and seminary and get all the training that is available. But those who start late in life into the ministry they are not able to do this because they already have ...read more

Paul draws an application to his Gentile-by-birth readers, from his Eph. 2:1-10 starting point.

Today we have the privilege of working through Ephesians 2:11-22. Let's turn there, and read just the first word. "Therefore." What "therefore" signals, is that Paul is going to draw some conclusions, and an application, from everything he's just said. But it's ...read more
