3rd - Sunday School
Life Experiences of Paul
Paul Meets Timothy
Acts 16:1-5
Paul asks Timothy to do something quite irregular knowing what we know about Paul's preaching.  Why is that?  A marvelous lesson is available here for us today - this continues our short Sunday School 'sermon' series as we look deeper into the life of Paul.

So What About Those Sins in Our Daily Lives
Romans 6:1,2
So for those folks who think we believe that we don't sin, here is your sermon.  WE don't sin, but there is still "sinning" going on.  What do we need to know about those sins that still take place in our daily lives?  Will they just burn in the Judgment Seat or is there more to it all for us and for others today?

Soul Information from Paul, Peter, John and Job
Soul Winning, Soul Winning, Soul winning!  What's Wrong With That?
Let us learn more about our souls today.  And then, as an added bonus, see the problems with 'hyper-soul-winning' and all that goes on today, or actually what does NOT go on in the churches that are more interested in birth than the training of Christians these days.  Save a soul, but turn it over to the world, the cults, or just let it die of starvation.  That seems to be happening more and more today in our Bible Believing churches!

6th - Wednesday pm service
What Time is It?
We look at the 'times' in the Bible - from Genesis to Revelation.  Don't get caught by somebody trying to tell you what time it is today when it really isn't that time.  That is what suckers more 'Christians' into fear than anything else - wrongly dividing times!  I can almost assure you that you might just learn a few details that you were not aware of when it comes to the White Throne Judgment, the time of the harvest, the times of ignorance, the times of refreshing, restitution, of the dead and hour of temptation.  Yes, these are exciting but difficult times today - so know about them truthfully!  You still have to know the Book from Genesis to Revelation!

10th - Sunday School
Life Experiences of Paul
Paul to Macedonia
Acts 16:6-24
We begin with a few comments about Paul being forbidden to go eastward all tying in with history and path of the King James Bible and also the history of music.  Music is following the same pattern in our churches - Japheth, to Ham and bluegrass eventually to the sensual feelings of Shem's music.  Yes, in YOUR Bible Believing Church!!
Then, as we look at Paul's experiences with a damsel with the spirit of divination, we see some very similar applications for today.  Yes, VERY similar!

10th - Sunday am service
Who Is This Christ That Paul Follows?
Is the Christ that Paul preaches any different than what the Jews knew about and heard from Christ?  Yes, very much.  When we are told to follow Paul as he follows Christ, remember, the Christ that Paul is following is the one who told him all those 'revelations' - NOT all that Christ preached to Jews in the Gospels.  The Christ we are to follow is taught to us by Paul, and He is an exceeding magnifcal Christ!

Help Us
Acts 16:9
As people call upon you for help, what do you do?  What do you do when you help them and then they return to their vomit?  Are their dangers in helping others... What is this battle all about?  This is a 'family' message - just sit back and listen, especially if you are one who is always trying to help folks get out of the snare they are caught up in - whether or not it be within your own family or friends, etc.  What do we need to consider when we seek to help others?

Romans 16:25,26
These are two great verses that summarize what I call the 'Greater Commission.'   You won't find it written any better when it comes to today's gospel that we are to preach and follow.  This is a short sermon that should help folks finally erase any doubts about Paul and his gospel!  There are no notes other than looking directly into your King James Bible at Romans 16:25,26; Ephesians 3 and Galatians 3!
DL
24th - Sunday School
Life Experiences of Paul

Acts 17
No notes necessary - just follow along as we hear mini sermons within Acts chapter 17 - lot of application for today in this chapter.

What Does It Mean to Obey the Gospel?
Looking again at Romans 16:25,26, we see the gospel that we are to obey today.  Some of you folks may be surprised.  This is a marvelously simple sermon - we SHOULD know what gospel we will be held accountable for following, eh?  Well, here it is!
DL
24th - Sunday pm service
Good and Bad Testimonies
Here are testimonies from the folks that Paul was preaching to - see if you can find yours in this list, or if you need to spurred on to a new and better testimony, here are some good examples to consider.

How To Get Comfort Through the Scriptures
It seems to be so hard for folks today to find comfort from within that little black Book!  The 'snare' seems so hard to get out of...; the lack of joy; no real peace according to Paul.  Where is our confidence - our boldness? Folks are losing their assurance of it all amidst these Laodicean times of temptation.  Our country is falling apart and apostasy is running rampant in the local church!  More and more personal and family failures are taking place - especially with Christians.  It just seems that there are fewer and fewer victories for Bible Believing Christians these days...  Why is that?
DL
31st - Sunday School
Life Experiences of Paul
Paul to Corinth and to 'court'
Acts 18
No notes necessary - just follow along as we hear mini sermons within Acts chapter 18 - lot of application for today in this chapter.  Sure wish the judges today would think like Gallio!
DL
31st - Sunday am service
Be AS a Child or Do You ACT Like a Child?
Comparing weeds in the garden to weeds in the church - those that act like children!  "Give in" to Biblical humbleness by not only humbling yourself to Christ, but to His guidance, as well.  Christians must grow up sometime!

Life Experiences of Paul
Summary from Acts  7-18
These are the chapters we have studied so far in our SS class on the life experiences of Paul.  This is a short review and summary along with some comments in how they can apply or not apply to us today.

* Note that Netscape will load these MP3's differently than the 'blue e' and the time of download will vary depending on the speed of your connection.
Also note that Netscape will show these pages as I designed them to look - I have no clue as to why the "big blue e" doesn't.  Just so you know... some of those poor designs are not true to my plan.
