    Sermon articulates four reasons why pastors have the right to be financially supported by their congregations.

    The Right To Get Paid Today I’m going to speak on topic that I’ve dreaded preaching about for over fifteen years.

    Rights, Rewards, and Responsibilities 1 Corinthians 9 In America we are told that we should value our rights above almost everything else. To be an American is to be free.

    Willing To Sacrifice Series

    This message brings an interesting question regarding what is ours and what we are willing to sacrifice. It seems that the level of commitment and outreach for Christ is related to what we perceive as our rights against what we sacrifice as God.

    WILLING TO SACRIFICE 1 CORINTHIANS9:1-15 INTRODUCTION: In this chapter, Paul makes some statements concerning his apostleship. He takes the time to describe his rights as an apostle and minister, and also his sacrifice as that same apostle and minister. In essence, Paul embraces his rights, and ...read more

    God’s provision is provision for the vision... not for our squandering or hoarding.

    Pro-Vision. James 5:1-6 WBC 16/11/03am Paul Harvey told about a 3-year-old boy who went to the grocery store with his mother.

    In 1 Corinthians 9, Paul defends his rights, gives up his rights, and shows how he lives without his rights. In doing so he becomes a great example for us in our dealings with the church and the world.

    Sometimes we feel like God has to completely change us in order to use us. Paul shows us that God takes the background, weaknesses, and even difficulties and uses them for His kingdom, if we let Him.

    Who are you as a person? Who are you as a Christian? Do those two questions get two different responses from you? I think often times we think that when we come to Christ, Jesus basically considers us to be a blank slate that needs to be redrawn into the character of Jesus and that everything about ...read more

    Paul is talking about the way some people questioned the way himself and other men of God were being paid by the Church. Questioning about administration is something natural.

    1 Corinthians 9:1-9 1 Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord?
