  • Grace From Galatians (11 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 7, 2022
     | 1,318 views

    Paul knew how much these Galatians held Abraham in high esteem.

    He takes this knowledge that they had of Abraham and uses it as he makes his third of the five appeals to them. Paul had no problem regarding the spiritual roots believers have in Abraham, because God's promises were clearly made to him. But he wanted them to know that having the PROMISED ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (12 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022
     | 2,013 views

    This is Paul’s fourth appeal to try to get them to come to their senses.

    As we have seen, Paul does not understand why these backsliding Galatian Christians wanted to return to the bondage of the law. In this appeal, he seems to appeal to their common sense, something that many in this country seem to have lost. Illus: I saw this sad announcement and thought about ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians! (13 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022
     | 1,458 views

    This is the FIFTH APPEAL that Paul used to try and bring these Galatians to their spiritual senses. He is hoping they will reach a sensible solution to their problems.

    But anytime you work with people and try to get them to arrive at the right conclusion, you find it is a difficult task to say the least. Some folks will go years and years making the same mistakes and getting the same results. It never seems to dawn on them that perhaps they are doing something ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (15 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022
     | 1,722 views

    The Bible has a great deal to say about Christians walking in the Spirit.

    Illus: There's a man trying to cross the street. As he steps off the curb, a car comes screaming around the corner and heads straight for him. The man walks faster, trying to hurry across the street, but the car changes lanes and is still coming at him. So the guy turns around to go back, ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (16 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022
     | 1,074 views

    In the last sermon we dealt with the two choices we have as Christians. That is, we can: • Walk in the flesh • Walk in the Spirit

    We also pointed out that the flesh is not sinful. The body in which we live is the temple of the Holy Spirit. HOW DO WE KNOW THESE BODIES ARE NOT SINFUL WITHIN THEMSELVES? Because this body in which we live is the same type of body in which Christ lived, and He was without sin. All sin resides ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (17 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022
     | 1,439 views

    In this passage of scripture, Paul is addressing Christians. Notice, he addressed them in verse 1 by referring to them as, “Brethren”.

    Paul’s concept of the church throughout the scriptures is that the Believers are the family of God. WHY IS HE ADDRESSING THEM? He is addressing them because people in the family of God are supposed to love one another as a LOVING FAMILY. Like all families, the family of God has times when ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (18 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022
     | 1,530 views

    Remember that when we started the Book of Galatians we talked about how these false teachers attacked Paul. They stated: • He was not a true apostle • He was preaching a false gospel

    Before Paul brings this letter to a close, he wants to deal with this subject sternly. The strategy that some use when they want to destroy a message is to destroy the messenger. This is the kind of strategy they were using against the apostle Paul. This is done in politics all the time. When ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (19 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022
     | 1,323 views

    This passage of scripture concludes Paul’s letter to the Galatians.

    In this letter we have been able to see: 1. Paul wrote to the Galatians out of a heart of love. 2. Paul wrote to the Galatians out of a heart of disappointment because they had so soon turned from the doctrine of grace to a false doctrine. 3. Paul wrote to the Galatians out of a heart of concern ...read more

  • Acts Of The Apostles 39 Of 39

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022
     | 2,242 views

    Even though we come to the final chapter of the book of Acts, we do not come to the end of this book.

    WHY DOES THE LORD FINISH THE BOOK OF ACTS WITH NO ENDING? This books is filled with the ACTS of God’s people, and God intends for the church to continue to serve him in this manner. If you remember, in the last sermon we saw Paul on the ship, and a storm came up and every man on board almost ...read more

  • Acts Of The Apostles 38 Of 39

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022
     | 1,611 views

    These days it has become very popular for people to take a cruise.

    What makes these cruises so special, is that for those days on the cruise people get to live the pampered life. When they get back from the cruise, it takes them several days for reality to set back in, and they start to live in the real world again. In our text, we see the apostle Paul is on a ...read more

  • Acts Of The Apostles (8 Of 39)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022
     | 1,537 views

    One thing every Pastor has remind his congregation of, is, WHEN THE LORD MOVES IN THE CHURCH, WE CAN REST ASSURED THE DEVIL WILL MOVE IN ALSO.

    As we come to the fifth chapter of the Book of Acts, God had moved by the power of the Holy Spirit in a great way. But when we get to chapter five, we see where the devil makes his move, through a couple in the church called Ananias and Saphirra. WHAT KIND OF CHURCH MEMBERS WERE THEY? They ...read more

  • Acts Of The Apostles (4 Of 39)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022
     | 2,853 views

    I would remind you again, that Luke is writing to his good friend, Theophilus. He is reporting on the activities of Christ's apostles.

    We can probably safely assume that Peter must have made a big impression on Luke, because in chapter two he recorded Peter's first message, and in chapter three he records Peter's second message. In Acts chapter three, we see three things we want to consider, such as: I. THEIR ...read more

  • A God-Planted Church

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 16, 2022
     | 2,765 views

    Today I want to talk to you about church planting, because all churches are not GOD PLANTED!

    HOW DOES GOD PLANT A CHURCH? CHURCH PLANTING is something like what a farmer does, he plants the seed, cultivates the seed, fertilizes the seed and then patiently waits for it to grow. Church planters basically do the same thing. They have to plant the seed (Gospel), cultivate the seed, ...read more

  • Tried In The Fire Seven Times

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 5, 2020
     | 7,350 views

    The Bible is NOT like any other book; its words are ALIVE! David compared God’s words to the purest gold, once it has finished going through the smelting process. The Word of God, like gold, is Trustworthy, Indestructible, Flawless, and Valuable.

    TRIED IN THE FIRE SEVEN TIMES Ps. 12:2-4,6 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A mother was teaching her 3-year-old the Lord's prayer. For several evenings at bedtime she repeated it after her mother. One night she said she was ready to solo. 2. The mother listened with pride as she carefully ...read more
