Bill Jackson Sermon Outlines, Articles, Lessons, etc.

Introduction:

1. Our series on basics caused us to see the prophecy of the coming Christ — to be Ruler — King — Governor — Savior.

2. So many prophecies emphasized some aspect of a KING and His KINGDOM.

3. We now study in that area, as we proceed in our study.

I.   As Jesus Began His Ministry:

A. His message: The kingdom is AT HAND” (Matt. 4:17).

B. John preceded Him with the same message (Matt. 3:2). “At hand” signified “nearness.”

God Speaks Through His Son – Sermon outline by Bill Jackson explaining how God instructs mankind – through His Son, through the Word.

Someone once made an acrostic lesson, showing that this is the make-up of true JOY. the point was that it works in this way, and it works right, and that it can work in no other way. Many Christians can echo what an old song said, “I Have Found It So!” Surely the Perfect Man […]

Sermon on Authority – Sermon outline by Bill Jackson in which he reasons from the nature of God his authority and the authority of His word and our obligation to obey

Introduction: 1. Isaiah 2:1-4. A very striking picture of the church, from 700 BC. 2. Old Testament prophecies tell us much, later to be seen in fulfillment in the New Testament.

Sermon on Redemption Introduction: 1. Ephesians 1:7 sets our topic forward: Redemption in Christ! Redemption through His blood. 2. An Old Testament topic (Job 19:25, as well as the New Testament. 3. Definition: a “buying back … setting free … deliverance.”

“Never Man Spake Like This Man” – Sermon Introduction: 1. John 7:32 — jewish leaders send officers to arrest the Lord. 2. Verse 33. He pointed to a time when he would no longer be with them, and those seeking could not find him (v. 34). This disturbed them.

Introduction: Read Hebrews 9:15 1. This volume, the Bible, is the STANDARD by which we will be judged (John 12:48). 2. It is a handbook on salvation, and all things connected with it. 3. As with any tool, it must be handled properly (2 Tim. 2:15).

Introduction:

1. In our series, when we think of this present age, THE CHRISTIAN AGE, we find something entirely new: An evangelistic thrust taking men and a message to all the world!

2. Such did not exist in the Patriarchal Age. In the age of Moses, the law was for Israel and not for the Gentiles. Evangelism was not a part of the law, except as one man under the law would give encouragement or rebuke to another man also under that same law.

I.   Even Under The Law, We Find A Pointing To The New Testament — And Benefit To All Men.

Introduction:

1. Often, people are “shocked” when we state, “We’re not under the old Testament law.”

2. Some, in misunderstand, have said: “You folks don’t believe the Old Testament?”

3. The shock and the misunderstanding rests in a failure of men to understand what it is to rightly divide the Word of God (2 Tim. 2:15).

Sermon on The Ten Commandments Introduction: Read Exodus 20:3-17 1. To many, all that God desires is, “Keep the 10 Commandments.” 2. These have no concept of God’s differing dispensations, laws. 3. It is shocking to them to be told, “We’re not under that law.”

Introduction: Hebrews 10:23-27

1. Hebrews 10:23-27 relates to Christian living, faithfulness.

2. In contrast we have holding fast, provoking to love and good works with wavering, forsaking, and sinning willfully.

I.   Some General Principles Here, And In The Background.

A. Purpose of Hebrews: To charge those tempted to return to the law of Moses that they have nowhere to go!

Introduction: Acts 2:41

1. God’s plan in operation: The Word and man working together.

2. The great Commission (Mark 16:15-16) sends the Word forth, and the power placed in the gospel can effect salvation.

I.   This Being So, How Men React To The word of God Is Important.

A. Jesus pictured four kinds of hearts, dealing with the Word, and only one was good and honest — open to truth (Luke 8:15).

B. Jesus found it, in His own generation, much as Isaiah had: Some men close hearts, eyes, ears — blocking the Word (Matt. 13:15).

C. Some men, in hearing the Word, thrust it away from themselves, and judge themselves unworthy of everlasting life (Acts 13:46).

Introduction:

1. In our series, we have noted Jesus’ church: The promise to build (Matt. 16:18), and its reality (Acts 2:47).

2. The church is the Lord’s body (Col. 1:18). He is its Head, and the Head regulates the body. We set forth the idea that the New Testament contains a church pattern.

I.   The Scriptures Themselves Set Forth The Idea Of A Pattern.

A. All we know, authoritatively, of the church is found therein.

B. And, the Scriptures are inspired of God, to furnish us completely unto every good work (2 Tim. 3:16-17).

1. Obeying the gospel is a good work — an essential one (2 Thess. 1:7-9).

2. In obeying, the Lord adds one to the church (Acts 2:47).
