Sermon: Healing a Paralyzed Man
Lesson 13 in series.
In this lesson on our series of the life of Christ, we note his healing of a paralyzed man in Luke 5. The blessings of friendship, the graciousness of the Lord and the meaning of the phrase “Son of Man” are discussed.
Sermon: “Put your trust in the Lord”
Psalm 4 is a wonderful psalm of praise to God. The text reveals that He is worthy of that praise because He is righteous, merciful, gracious, trustworthy and helpful.
Sermon: People of the Way
Acts 9 notes that Saul of Tarsus was seeking to persecute those of “the Way.” What is the origin and significance of that term as it is used to designate the people of God?
Sermon: Zeal
God approved zeal is found in the pursuit of good things, is seen in the treatment of others, and grows out of genuine conversion. Are you on fire for the Lord?
Sermon: The Temple Tax
The 12th in our series on the life of Jesus. Jesus teaches Peter an important lesson concerning His person by the miraculous securing of, and paying the temple tax in Matthew 17.
Sermon: Heroes of Faith
Four character studies from the list of Heroes given in Hebrews 11. The legacy of faith of Enoch, Gideon, Barak and Jephthah are examined, with applications made.
“Lord, teach us to pray”
In Luke 11, one of the Lord’s disciples made this request, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples” (1). This is the only time recorded in the gospels where a disciple ever requested teaching on a specific subject, though the disciples often did ask Jesus for further explanation when confused about the Master’s words. This request was commendable, and Jesus honored it.
