INTRODUCTION: Read Matthew 12:43-45

A. In Matthew 12:43-45 we will find Jesus describing the spiritual condition of the generation of His day

1. He had just described them as “evil and adulterous” (Matt. 12:38-39)

2. He also described how they would be condemned by the Ninevites and the Queen of Sheba in the Day of Judgment (Matt. 12:41-42)

Introduction: Read John 6:26 1. There is great folly in seeking from Jesus what He does not offer. 1) Vindication of your false doctrine. 2) Health and wealth, name it and claim it. 3) Gentle Jesus, meek and mild, non-judgmental, even “gay” Jesus, etc. 2. Jesus came with a particular purpose in mind, Luke 19:10 […]

Introduction: Read Acts 8:12

1. Pentecost (Acts 2) gives us a great example as to what to preach.

1) Every word designed to awaken faith in Jesus.

2) Then to motivate the audience to faithful obedience.

2. But did the next evangelists follow the same pattern? It is good to notice what the next evangelists preached because THAT’S what WE need to preach.

3. About the text:

1) Christians were scattered because of the persecution in Jerusalem (Stephen, Acts 7).

2) They didn’t scatter and hide, they scattered and preached (Acts 8:4), and so we find Philip in Samaria.

3) The Lord worked miracles through him so that the people would believe, John 20:30-31, Mark 16:20; Heb. 2:3-4.

4. The content of his preaching is critical

1) The things concerning the Kingdom of God.

2) The name of Jesus Christ.

5. When they heard these things they believed and obeyed.

6. Because we have been given the job of world evangelism (Matt. 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-16; Luke 24:46-47), just like Philip we ought to examine what the New testament has to say about the Kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ.

INTRODUCTION: Genesis 3:1-24

A. Have you ever wondered how one could allow a moment of pleasure to destroy his/her marriage or reputation?

1. What causes one to mortgage his life to pay the high price of sin?

2. What causes one to turn his back on God, his family or his brethren?

3. Genesis 3 will give us some insight into these questions.

B. The Bible is a book about sin.

1. Genesis 1 & 2 sets forth man in his innocence.

2. The remaining 1,187 chapters depict man as a sinner, and as one who is in need of grace – the salvation that can only be found in Christ.

3. In this lesson I want us to go back in our minds to the garden of Eden, to a time when sin first entered the world, and notice some very important points that will help us in our daily walk as a Christian.

INTRODUCTION

A. Matthew 7:24-29

1. As this passage begins with “therefore” it is certain these statements of the Lord are rooted in the preceding passage.

3. If we do not put these sayings of Christ to practice, i.e. the teachings of the Sermon on the Mount, our spiritual house will fall in this life and come to utter ruin in the world to come.
