Sermons added from May - September, 2007

Prepare to Meet Thy God - Amos 4; Amos 2:4-5; Amos 3:1-3. God has a controversy with America. But, on a far more serious note, the Lord has a controversy with the evangelical church in America.  

Forsaking Mercy for Lying Vanities - Jonah 2:7-9  

Turn Again Our Captivity, O Lord - Psalm 126. We have too many good-enough Christians who are content to have morality without spirituality and piety without power.  

The Way of Happiness - Psalm 1  

A Pastor Named Paul - Acts 20:16-32. Our text today is Paul's last in-person exhortation to the elders of the church at Ephesus. The Apostle Paul did not shun to declare all the counsel of God. He was a Christian man's man and a pastor's pastor. 

God's Righteousness Revealed and Declared - Romans 3:21-31 

Lay Hold and Fight - 1 Timothy 6:12. I believe these two charges--fight the good fight of faith and lay hold on eternal life--sum up the essentials for an obedient, fruitful, faithful, consistent, joyful, triumphant Christian life.  

A Psalm of Praise - Psalm 100 

Filthy Dreamers and Their Dangerous Doctrines - Jude 17-21. There is no cause more pressing than contending for the faith once delivered unto the saints. And there is no foe more dangerous to the Lord's people than ungodly men who pervert that faith.  

He Must Increase, but I Must Decrease - John 3:22-36. It is a joyful thing to come to the conclusion that Christ must increase, but I must decrease. It sets a man at liberty to serve the Lord with joy. It brings peace to a man's heart. 

Will Ye Also Go Away? - John 6:67. To stand firm for God's Word and walk with Jesus these days is to be part of a dwindling band of disciples.  

Quench Not the Spirit - 1 Thessalonians 5:19. We would all do well to ask ourselves today, Do I quench the Spirit?  

The Christian's Inheritance and Portion - Genesis 31:14-15. Will your ingratitude to your heavenly Father--who is not like Laban but gives you your inheritance and guards it, who wants to give you a full portion in His house--be so great that you don't care about His portion?

We Shall Be Saved - Romans 5:6-11 

A Hard Stripe - Numbers 20:12. Those who refuse to sanctify the Lord will suffer great loss. Even if the day of reckoning is far in the future, it will come. Remember Moses.  

Lovest Thou Me More Than These? - John 21:1-17. As they passed through the gate into prison, as they lay in their own blood after being tortured, as they were tied to the stake, as they laid their heads down on the block, they said before the whole world, "Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee." 

Let Us Be As the Church at Jerusalem - Acts 2:42. Could we not benefit greatly by considering the condition and characteristics of the church at Jerusalem? That church had just experienced a great, powerful work of revival when God rent the heavens, came down, and made three thousand hearts His own.

Who Will Stand with Zion and Her King? - Psalm 3. PCC Camp Meeting 2007

More Chaff Than Wheat - Matthew 3:11-12. PCC Camp Meeting 2007

The Precious Blood of Jesus - 1 Peter 1:18-19 

That I Might Know Him - Philippians 3:1-14 

The Lord Our Strong Tower - Proverbs 18:10. Who is willing to say of these sort of things: "An enemy has done this. This is the devil's handiwork!"? But no, too many are too busy building a tower of Babel. The truth has fallen in the streets of Zion and many of God's people love to have it so.
