Sermons on Peter Preaches:

Apologetics

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Dec 22, 2025

Finally got a word Wednesday, for today’s message. I truly don’t stress about a lot of things. I get aggravated, but stress is not part of my daily diet.

So, after getting the word “apologetics”, I thought I was on my way! I thought I knew what the message was. You’ve heard me say before that I thought God was taking me in on direction on a sermon, but He was actually taking me in a completely different direction. I’ll explain a bit more about ...read more

It's All About Jesus, It's Not About You

Contributed by Jerry Falwell on Apr 12, 2002

Much of our Christianity is concerned about me. Christians emphasize my forgiveness, my answered prayers, my blessings, and my spiritual gifts, and my Christian service. But at Easter, Peter had to learn, "It’s about Jesus, it’s not about you."

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 17, 2025

The people in Jesus’ day had various perception of who He was, but Peter the disciple of Jesus truly understood who Jesus was. The important question we need to ask ourselves is, “Who is Jesus to us personally?” The answer to this is vital both for now and for eternity.

We read in Matthew 16:13, Now after coming into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus questioned His disciples, saying, "Who do men declare Me, the Son of man, to be?" (AFV) The above was the question that Jesus asked His disciples. Jesus had performed so many miraculous signs and ...read more
