Philip Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 18, 2021

Philip, like all the other Apostles, was unique. He had his own strengths and weaknesses. He is another proof that Jesus can and does use people of all different natures.

If Simon the Zealot was a right-winger and Matthew the Publican a left- winger, Philip was a cautious middle of the roader. He had both liberal and conservative leanings. His background was one of mixed influence. His name, for example, tell us something of his home life. Philip is a Greek name, ...read more

Jesus Called Them PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Sep 25, 2023

Encourage us to respond to Jesus' call in our lives, becoming workers in His harvest field, spreading the good news and showing His love to a world in need.

Good morning, church family! Today, we gather to explore a passage from the Gospel of Matthew, which centers on Jesus' call to the apostles, their response, and the challenge for us to respond to Jesus' call in our lives today. In the words of C.S. Lewis, "The great thing to remember is that, ...read more

Apostolic Intolerance Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 18, 2021

If pride and a sense of exclusiveness and spiritual privilege could lead the Apostles to go wrong, it is not only likely, but inevitable that the same will be true of all of us.

It is not intolerant to expose an oppose error. If a newspaper prints an article naming you as a spokesman for the Ku Kulx Klan it would not be intolerant for you to write them and tell them of their error. Likewise, if a man preaches that God’s Word teaches a man can be saved by works, it is not ...read more

. A Living Authority Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 23, 2021

It is Paul's goal to see that Christians put Jesus where He belongs, and that is in the place of supreme authority.

A Christian school teacher offered a dollar to the one who could give her the name of the most famous man in history. She wanted them to say Jesus, of course. They all began to shout out names like Washington, Lincoln, Edison, and Columbus, and finally a little Jewish boy said Jesus. When he came ...read more

Finding Friends In Low Places Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Oct 12, 2008

Do you ever find yourself in a place where nothing is going right? The Apostle Paul came to Corinth in just such a state. Learn how God brought him help and fellowship just when he needed it.

The recent plunges by the world stock markets, bank failures, fortunes lost, even suicides by financial planners—all bring back chilling reminders of the Great Depression. 25% of Americans were unemployed. People couldn’t find work that lasted and many people lost their homes. Discouragement was at ...read more

An Apostolic Attitude Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 6, 2021

Success never went to Paul’s head. He could have stood on his dignity as an Apostle, and from a pedestal of superiority thrown his weight around, but he never did. Here again we see Paul’s absolute sincerity, for he knew he only had the position he did by the grace of God.

We have all heard it said that is doesn’t make any difference what you believe as long as you are sincere. This is true only if what you are talking about doesn’t make any difference. If you sincerely believe that white potatoes are better for you than red potatoes it will not make any great ...read more

Centurion Julius’ Experience With Paul

Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 1, 2016

What would it have been like to be the Roman officer who sailed in close quarters with the Apostle Paul during the harrowing trip from Caesarea to Rome? How did God’s bond-slave, Paul, affect this man?

CENTURION JULIUS’ EXPERIENCE WITH PAUL Acts 27:1-28:16 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: GETTING OLDER 1. Have you ever felt like everybody around you is getting older faster than you? 2.

Within, Without Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 11, 2008

Paul and John Mark, a study in maturing relationships. John Mark starts out young and conflicted; he is insecure around the powerful Paul; but Paul grows to accept him and think of him as useful.

The Scripture texts I will be using today are scattered through several chapters in the Book of Acts, plus other locations in the New Testament. And so instead of simply reading passage after passage, let me put together a vignette, a character sketch, in order to make the life of John Mark ...read more

An Extraordinary Commission (Part 1)

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 9, 2025

Does Jesus still call and empower believers to do bold and amazing things in His name, like healing the sick, raising the dead, and casting out demons? Does this passage only apply to the first apostles, or can it be applied to us?

I have entitled our sermon this morning, “An Extraordinary Commission,” and this is Part 1 of a two-part message. I want to begin by saying that I was raised in a small country church with a pastor who loved the Lord and His people, and proclaimed only the basics, like sin, repentance, salvation, ...read more
