Finding Our God Who is Not Far
In Paul’s sermon on Mars Hill, the Apostle appealed to the spiritual curiosity of the Greek philosophers. He gave them the good news that the Lord and Creator of the Universe was not as far away as they thought. Paul identifies their “UNKNOWN GOD” as the Lord Jesus Christ, who can be intimately known through His Word and His Spirit.
The Strange Woman
In this sermon, we receive a solemn warning to avoid the flattery and allure of “a strange woman.” The consequences of a relationship with her are destruction and disaster. Furthermore, she is a type or a picture of the “strange woman” of Revelation: MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT.
Wicked vs. Just
In this passage, Proverbs warns us not to roll with the wicked. Along with these warnings, God always gives you a way out of the temptation. The just must walk in the path of God’s way in God’s Word. We must guard our hearts, our lips, our eyes, and our feet from the ways of the wicked.
Be Good to People!
In our dealings with others, we ought to pay what we owe and be benevolent when we can! But when the opportunity to do evil arises, we must choose good even if we could get away with wrongdoing! The LORD is pleased with wisdom and justice, but wickedness will receive its recompense.
Wisdom's Blessings
True Biblical happiness is found in seeking and retaining Wisdom, whose value is greater than any earthly riches. “She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.” The Creation of the Universe bears witness to God’s Wisdom and the manifold blessings it brings.
Honour the LORD
In this sermon, we see the danger of presumptuous sin and take a look at a couple examples of its disastrous consequences. If we despise or ignore the chastening of the LORD, we will reap the consequences. We also look at the principle of honouring the LORD in our finances through giving.
God's Word / Your Heart
In this passage of Proverbs, Solomon continues to lay out the wisdom of following the Lord according to his Word. We find eight Biblical responsibilities for the Believer which result in six blessings in our walk with Christ.
Wisdom's Preservation
The promise of this passage is that If we will receive God’s wisdom, then it will protect us from the evil man and the strange woman. We must walk with God else wicked temptations lead us astray!
Wisdom's Promise
Wisdom offers a hypothesis: 1. IF we RECEIVE God’s Word earnestly in prayer, 2. THEN we will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God 3. BECAUSE He is a giver of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding!
Wisdom's Cry
The cry of Wisdom warns us to heed God’s Word. If we will not turn at its reproofs, we will reap the wickedness that we sow. And for the unrepentant Lost, the wages of sin is eternal death.
Wisdom's Warning: Beware Ungodly Companions
In this passage, we find two key principles for living a godly life. First, Solomon pleads with his son to heed the instruction of his father and his mother. Second, he warns him to avoid the influence of the wrong company. Ungodly companionship leads to disaster!
The Fear of the LORD
In this sermon, we continue our introduction to Proverbs with the key to wisdom: the Fear of the LORD: “We must see him for who he is, giving him the respect and worship that is due Him through our submission to His Word.”
The Command: Get Wisdom!
In this sermon, we are introduced to Proverbs, the Bible’s book of wisdom, and its author, king Solomon. As we study this book, we are seeking to know God’s Word, understand it, and wisely apply it to our lives!
Practical Precepts in Light of Prophecy, pt.3
As Paul's letter to the Thessalonians draws to a close, he continues to give simple but important commands for the Believer. In this sermon, we see the need to be thankful and unceasing in prayer. We must be submitted to the leading of the Holy Ghost and the doctrines of the Word of God. We must use the discernment and direction of God to avoid the appearance of evil and live blameless lives in Christ.
Be Thankful
In this sermon, Paul once again thanks the Lord in prayer for the Thessalonians. If we receive the Word of God in faith and choose to suffer with God’s people, then we can look forward to the hope and joy of reward at the Judgment Seat of Christ.
The Word and Power of the Gospel
In this sermon, we further examine the powerful testimony of the disciples at Thessalonica. In the midst of persecution, the Thessalonians were faithful ministers of the Word of God through the power of the Holy Ghost.
David Devastated
In this sermon, David and his men return from the battlefield to discover that their camp at Ziklag had been raided by the Amalekites. Their camp was burnt down, their families were taken captive. Nevertheless, David encourages himself in the LORD - and God works a miraculous rescue.
David the Deliverer
In this sermon, David and his mighty men are called to defend the farms of Keilah from Philistine raids. David’s great faith and readiness to inquire of the LORD lead to a victory for God’s people as they narrowly escape the pursuit of Saul and his soldiers.
Fear Forgets God
In this sermon, David is on the run from Saul. After collecting shewbread and the sword of Goliath from Ahimelech, he flees to Gath in fear.
