    This is a look at Romans 12:1-8. In view of God’s mercy, Paul sheds light on our personal responsibility to live to our true potential.

    Romans 12:1 - 8. “Fulfilling our true potential .” When I was a young man, I wanted to change the world. I found it was difficult to change the world, so I tried to change my nation. When I found I couldn’t change the nation, I began to focus on my town. I couldn’t change the town and as an ...read more

     | 4,990 views

    There is no doubt that when Paul arrived, alone, in the sinful city of Corinth, it was a little bit of a shock. Worn down, lonely, discouraged, he needed the provision of God.

    Passage: Acts 18:1-17 Intro: When we read Acts, we get a picture of Paul in our minds. 1. we picture him striding powerfully from one rejection to another, brushing off the effects of this beating or that imprisonment. 2. but here in Corinth, it seems to have caught up with him. 3. many miles on ...read more

     | 2,969 views

    Here in this last chapter Paul deals with some of the things a church, feeling it own pressure as well the external pressure of those outside its own doors.

    FINAL THOUGHTS FOR A PRESSURED CHURCH INTRODUCTION: For everything we read about the Corinthian Church, and everything Paul attempts to teach this same church, for the most part we are left with a church struggling to identify itself to each other and in its community. It has been rocked by ...read more

     | 115,504 views

    Christian fatherhood is an important part of God’s plan and design the family. Paul writes that there are three important functions that Christian fathers must carry out.

    Father’s Day Message Eph. 6:1-4 Well, today is Father’s Day and it is right that we should stop and honor Father’s. It is important that we take time to speak on the significance of fatherhood not only on special occasions like today, but as a matter of course because role of the father is being ...read more

     | 3,900 views

    Worship at the Lord’s Table may either be focused on Christ, or on the individual participating. Paul cautions against trivializing the Lord’s Table to suit oneself.

    1 CORINTHIANS 11:17-20 THERE MUST BE FACTIONS “In the following instructions I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse. For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you. And I believe it ...read more

    Paul teaches us how we can be assured of our right standing with God even though we continue to struggle with sin in our lives.

    Scripture Before we moved to Tampa our family lived in Pennsylvania for 16 years. The first 5 of those years we lived in western Pennsylvania. And then we spent 11 years in central Pennsylvania. We lived in State College, PA, which is the home of Penn State University. State College is located in ...read more

     | 6,213 views

    Like Paul, we cannot plead that we are either too broken or too privileged to engage in service. Brokenness is what God can use for the Kingdom.

    No excuses. No excuses. We are accountable for what we do. We are accountable to God. And what God has called us to do, we can do. No excuses. If God has chosen us, then He has expectations. There are Kingdom tasks to be performed, there is a witness to be made, there is something that each of us ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,546 views

    In Romans 5:12-21 the apostle Paul contrasts the work of Adam with the work of Christ. This sermon examines the reality, result, extent, and universality of the work of Adam.

    Scripture Pastor and commentator Warren Wiersbe says that “since Romans is a book of logic, it is a book of ‘therefores.’ We have the ‘therefore’ of condemnation in Romans 3:20, justification in Romans 5:1, no condemnation in Romans 8:1, and dedication in Romans 12:1.” In writing to the Romans, ...read more

    Giving Christ the supreme position in our lives is a decision we make. Paul opens his letter to the Colossian church with a reminder that he was sent by God.

    Introduction: I. I have a friend, a co-worker to be more specific, who comes from an American Indian heritage. A. He is actually quite proud of his background, B. In talking with him about Christ, I also discovered that he claims Christ as his savior. 1. Sounds good right. 2. That is ...read more

    In this sermon, the apostle Paul answers whether it is fair of God to hold us accountable to him when he makes the decision regarding our eternal destiny.

    Scripture Today I’d like to continue our study in Romans 9, one of the most difficult chapters in the entire Bible. Let me say how glad I am that God has allowed me to preach these difficult truths to you. You have not resisted the clear teaching of God’s word, but you have embraced it for what it ...read more

     | 13,747 views

    In an age of commercialism that breeds discontent we are challenged by Scripture to live a contented life. Paul explains how we can be content in any and every situation.

    GROWING A CONTENTED SPIRIT On a scale of one to ten (one being discontent and ten being very content) how content are you overall with your life? Think about that for a moment. Contentment is an illusive quality today. Much of the business world works hard to breed discontent so that we will buy ...read more

    The Gospel is the Good News of Jesus Christ in the Word of God and Paul tells us What it is, How it came and What we should do with it.

    THE GOSPEL CAME One of the most frequently used words in the Christian church is the word ‘gospel’. It is of course the ‘Good News’ of the Lord Jesus Christ. The gospel is the most important message that we can ever hear. George Whitefield was preaching and noticed an old man settling down for ...read more

    As Paul continues to address the problems in the church at Corinth, he now turns to the issue of spiritual gifts and how the church is supposed to function like a human body.

    Introduction: A. Many of you know how much I love the Peanuts comic strip. 1. In one of the strips, Snoopy, the lovable beagle, was pictured with his left leg broken. 2. Snoopy philosophized about his plight one day while perched on top of his doghouse. 3. He thought, “My body blames my foot for ...read more

     | 4,116 views

    37th in a series from Ephesians. The "conventional wisdom" is that this passage deals with our individual anger. But Paul seems to have something else in mind here.

    This week I ran into what was billed as a “Conventional Wisdom IQ Test”. The idea is to see how many of the sayings of conventional wisdom that one can complete. The original test had 20 questions, but for time’s sake let’s see how well we can do on just 10 of them: 1. If it’s not broken.... ...read more
