Sermons on Christ (Page 74)
What a powerful and encouraging message on spiritual growth and forgiveness! As Bro. Jeff examines Paul’s friend John Mark, we gain insightful and practical advice on how to break free from the chains of hurt, bitterness, and unforgiveness. We hope you are as blessed as we were by this sermon!
Does Jesus mean more to you than your safety or comfort? What does He mean to you? Bro. Jeff challenges us with the sacrifice and wonderful example that Epaphras is for us still today. Have you met Jesus?
In this message, we are deeply challenged in several areas of our Christian walk, including our obedient actions, our willing attitude, and our prayer life. Learn more as Bro. Jeff continues this study of Philemon.
Do you need to be renewed and refreshed? We all do from time to time. God’s plan for us provides ultimate strengthening and invigoration, and Bro. Jeff shows how Philemon 20 provides encouragement in our times of weariness and discouragement.
The idea of repayment, reconciliation, and restoration is important in the Bible, and Bro. Jeff shares some important Biblical truths regarding financial and spiritual debt in this message from Philemon.
Forgiveness. Restoration. Love. “Yet for love’s sake…,” many a hurt can be healed. Bro. Jeff encourages us in Paul’s instruction and example of the humility and perspective that will bring unity to the relationship struggles in our lives.
So much can be learned from this account of a slave owner and his runaway slave. As Bro. Jeff delves deeper into this inspiring true story, we are reminded how much God loves everyone, even those on the lowest rung of the social ladder, how He uses people to reach others, and how the inconveniences in our lives just may be His work to help us overcome barriers, hurts, and problems.
Paul’s request to Philemon is a good lesson to us on loving each other. We have various motivations for the things we do, and Bro. Jeff brings out the importance of love as our motivator.
“Love is more powerful and influential than anything else” and is the higher road to take. Other ways to influence just drives wedges between people. Bro. Jeff delivers a very practical message on love, what love is, how we should love, and the benefits of loving one another.
