Obedient No Matter The Cost

"Is this the hill you want to die on?" It's good to be reminded that not all arguments have to be won, that not all causes are worth the ultimate sacrifice. Paul had picked his final battle. Though it grieved those who loved him, he knew the hill he wanted to die on - or the 7 hills, we could say. In our study today, we'll make it to Jerusalem with Paul and company.

To Finish My Course - Paul

"Believe whatever you like - as long as it doesn't affect my business!" Paul's attack on the goddess Diana, or Artemis, wasn't just a religious insult to the Ephesians; it must have wounded their civic pride - and most importantly, it was going to take food off their tables. Something had to be done! There was only one problem: Paul wasn't blaspheming their goddess. As we move forward in Acts 19, Pastor Jim opens a message called, To Finish My Course - Paul.

God's Two Year Visit To Ephesus

Paul isn't exactly touring the "garden spots." For a year-and-a-half the Apostle had ministered from that slimy "city of ill repute," Corinth. After another road trip with stops including his old stomping grounds Antioch and Jerusalem, Paul landed in Ephesus. That town was the center of Artemis-worship; and where there are idols, there are demons. Did all the occult activity hamper the work of God there? Let's find out, in a sermon Jim calls God's 2-Year Visit to Ephesus

Following John - Finding Jesus

A modern-day "evangelist" might sweep into town, preach a few nights, then fly away forever. Not Paul. We've joined the traveling company of Paul, courtesy of Dr. Luke, and we see that the Apostle is no shallow showman. He's not concerned about increasing his head-count or his pocketbook; he's interested in deep roots, and lasting fruit. We'll be in Acts 18 with Jim after this personal story.

Reaching God's People In Corinth

What happens in Corinth, stays in Corinth. We may associate that ancient Greek city with Corinthian columns or "Corinthian leather." But historically, the name has been connected to licentiousness and vice. Our ongoing study of the book of Acts takes us to chapter 18, and we'll walk with Paul from Athens about 50 miles West, to the "sin city" of the day.

Making Known The Unknown God

Will Rogers said, "Everybody is ignorant, only on different subjects." The Athenians thought Paul was an ignorant bumpkin. But they were ignorant of the biggest subject of all - and they had admitted as much. Now, where to begin his explanation? They were so uninformed that Paul couldn't use the Scriptures to make his case; he had to start from the basics: the nature of God, and Creation. We might playfully call it, "The gospel for dummies." Here's Part 1 of Jim's sermon, Making Known the Unknown God.

Checking To See If These Things Are So

Acts 17, "Paul at Mars Hill" - a symbol of the verbal defense of the gospel. Socrates had addressed the "men of Athens," you may remember, and it didn't turn out so well for him. But Paul wasn't on trial that day - it was the gospel on trial. And while his audience wasn't predisposed to believe it, they were at least willing to listen. But before we get to Athens, we'll make a happy stop in Berea.
