    Secrets to learning how to take the good with the bad situations in a spirit of thankfulness

    Taking the Pleasant With the Unpleasant (Acts 14:1-8) 1. Why do you think some people grow tired of their jobs? Every job has its so called good and bad points. Yet, some aspects of service are not always considered as important as less enjoyable aspects. Even though many disciples relished the ...read more

    Apostolic Christianity is opportunity driven.

    Do verses 2-3 make sense to you? "But the Jews who spurned God’s message stirred up distrust among the Gentiles against Paul and Barnabas, saying all sorts of evil things about them..." At which point--based on prior patterns in the book of Acts, you’d expect Luke to say, "So they were let over ...read more

    Learning To See Good In Difficulties

    Even though many disciples relished the privilege to preach in the name of Jesus, persecution caused many to quit. They thrived on the sense of power as they spoke with the enabling of the Holy Spirit, but disliked the opposition they encountered.

    This sermon demonstrates the great commitment that the apostle Paul had to the great commission and the great commandment and calls all of us to that that same commitment.

    The First Missionary Journey (Part 2) Acts 14 July 21, 2002 Intro: A. [NO SCAR? By Amy Carmichael] Hast thou no scar? No hidden scar on foot, or side, or hand?

    Despite the growing opposition to the gospel, Paul and Barnabas never stopped preachign the gospel, even at therisk of their lives. They also give a good example of mission strategy.

    If you were here two weeks ago you’ll remember how, when Paul and Barnabas got to Pisidian Antioch they first went to the synagogue to speak about Jesus as the promised Messiah, but then when their message was rejected by the Jews they turned to the Gentiles. And the Gentiles gladly received this ...read more

    We Must Through Many Tribulations...

    Understanding how to obtain the blessings of suffering as Christians.

    WE MUST THROUGH MANY TRIBULATIONS... What is tribulation, but that very influence that brings us nearer to the heart of God than prayers or hymns? I think sorrows usually bring us closer to God than joys do, but sorrow, to be of use, must be endured, as Christ’s were, victoriously, carrying with ...read more

    Attributes To Admire Series

    Contributed by Rich Dunbar on Jun 14, 2005
    based on 28 ratings
     | 6,245 views

    This sermon identifies four attributes worth admiration in Paul and Barnabas. These same attributes ought to be present in us as fathers.

    Admiration is an interesting thing. The dictionary defines it as “a feeling of pleasure, wonder and approval”. I think that most men want their children to admire them in one sense or another. I mean I want my children to take pleasure in me as their father, I want them to have a sense of wonder ...read more

    The Living God - [preaching]

    Biblical preaching always leads to DECISION, sometimes to DISTURBANCE, and, as is the case in America today, often to DIVISION. Good applications for not worshiping Man/Pope, etc. Powerpoint at website.

    The Living God Acts 14:1-19 Powerpoint at: http://www.gbcdecatur.org/sermons/LivingGod.html We just celebrated Easter and how one claiming to be God proved it by rising again from the dead.

    "Are You Listening?"

    based on 27 ratings
     | 2,437 views

    When the Word of the Lord is truly preached, the Lord of the Word is speaking. Are you listening?

    “And they began calling Barnabas, Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.” Every once in a while we preachers get a reality check concerning just how well we are communicating and how well people are listening to the things we say from the pulpit. That’s good. I think ...read more

    Let’s be careful to represent God to people the way He has represented Himself; as gracious provider, protector, benefactor.

    …and preach the gospel to you in order that you should turn from these vain things to a living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all that is in them.

    We can learn a great deal from the way Paul and Barnabas went into a dark world with the light of the gospel. And things really haven’t changed all that much. People are still people, and they still need the gospel.

    Passage: Acts 14:8-20 Intro: When New Tribes Missions goes into a new area, they have a plan. 1. it involves the missionaries living among the people, in order to demonstrate the unique life of the follower of Jesus Christ. 2. it involves learning the language and the culture of the people they ...read more

    Builders Or Wreckers? Series

    Contributed by Matthew Street on Oct 13, 2006
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,173 views

    Are we like Paul and Barnabas builders in God’s Kingdom or are we more concerned about doing things in the way they have always been done with the result that we like the Jews miss the new things that God is doing and become wreckers rather than builders

    Building something up is so much harder than tearing it down. We only need to think about the last time we had some redevelopment work done on our house to know that this is true. It takes no time to knock out those old windows or that old kitchen but it takes much longer to replace them. Gerald ...read more
