    Paul goes to Jerusalem and is arrested; is he doing the will of God?

    “Under Arrest” Acts 21:17-36 July 13, 2008 Could Paul have been wrong? Certainly, as I’ve repeated, he was a man, a man of flesh-and-blood, and he was not above sin! There are two points in today’s passage at which different commentators believe that Paul made an error. There ...read more

     | 5,097 views

    From this text, let’s get some ideas about setting sail in life in order to accomplish God’s will. 1- We must set sail for our mission 2- We must set sail in regard to the Lord’s will

    INTRO.- Luke said, "We put out to sea." ILL.- Recently, we heard that Edward Ted Kennedy has a brain tumor, a cancer, but he’s not giving up. You have to give him credit for this. He’s continuing to do, to go about his business. And over Memorial Day weekend he even put out to sea and was ...read more

    based on 28 ratings
     | 9,199 views

    Preaching the truth seems to always cause trouble because some people don’t want to listen to it or believe it. Paul experienced two difficulties in this text. 1- The difficulty of being misunderstood 2- The difficulty of being hassled

    INTRO.- Job 14:1 "Man born of woman is of few days and full of trouble." Eccl. 2:22-23 "What does a man get for all the toil and anxious striving with which he labors under the sun? All his days his work is pain and grief; even at night his mind does not rest. This too is meaningless." WHAT ...read more

    How Paul Died To The Flesh

    Contributed by Jon Mackinney on Mar 6, 2007
    based on 19 ratings
     | 4,495 views

    Dying to self, dying to the flesh, are not particularly popular concepts today, even in the church. But the apostle Paul is a great example of doing just that, and his accomplishments are legendary. How did he die to self?

    Intro: I’m beginning to understand why it is easier just to avoid the book of Acts. 1. not all the geography or history. 2. but the example of the Apostle Paul that scares the living daylights out of us. 3. here we find Paul on his last journey, sailing and walking steadfastly to imprisonment and ...read more

    Walking Headlong Into Trouble Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 2, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,996 views

    What do you do when you know trouble is coming? Do you run the other way as fast as you can? Paul didn’t and his example helps us when we face difficulty or when those close to us face trials.

    Did trouble take Paul by surprise? It shouldn’t have. Back in Acts 9, right at his conversion, Jesus made it clear to then Saul what his future would be like. He told Ananias, who was sent to pray for Saul, “Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings ...read more

    Cooperation is necessary for the protection of unity in the church.

    Paul was a great statesman for the faith. When we think of Paul we normally think of a man of unwavering faith, firm resolve, and unshakeable courage. One virtue which may not come to mind as quickly is Paul’s humility, gentleness and willingness to abase himself for the sake of the gospel. ...read more
