God’s Charge to Serve

Sermon, , , ,

Likewise, Paul continues God’s instruction regarding the character of servant-leaders in the church. We know them as deacons. But we may not know what they are supposed to look like or what they are supposed to do. So let’s see what the Bible says regarding these servants of the Lord.

God’s Charge to Pastors

Sermon, , , , ,

Jesus the Son of God is the only human who lived the perfect life in God’s eyes. Yet the Word still gives us these characteristics to be seen in pastors and elders. While we may feel inadequate at times, the bigger concern would be if we aren’t humbled by this challenge. Pride is the most deadly sin.

A Charge to Pray

Sermon, , , ,

Paul sometimes challenges us with doctrines that don’t make as much sense to us as they did in his context. But the instruction is always applicable to us. We need to pray, pray for those who don’t know Jesus as Savior, and we need to make sure we are not a distraction for others knowing him.

Paul’s Charge to Timothy

Sermon, ,

Paul’s past made him grateful for God’s mercy. Paul used his present to show his appreciation for being saved by remaining faithful to the gospel message and teaching others to do the same. One of the products of the apostle’s work was young Timothy. His charge to Timothy was to remain faithful, keep a good conscience, and keep teaching the true gospel. What will we do with what we have been given?
