Sermons From The Black Pulpit
The best of biblical scholarship and theological reflection is combined in these sermons that speak eloquently about a question of vital importance to all Christians - what does it mean to be a person under God? The urgent need for inter-dependence of all people in order to fulfill God's compassionate will for individuals, nations, and the world is the central theme underlying these thirteen sermons. Interpreting the Scripture texts in light of contemporary concerns, Dr. Proctor and Dr. Watley consider the cultural, social, political, economic, and religious realities of our world as they are and as they should be if Christians are to take God's Word seriously.They offer hope and direction for living in steadfast confidence as people of God. These sermons prepared by two distinguished men of the black Christian community are excellent resources for preachers of all denominations. They are timely, speak to the concerns of a troubled world, and express the hope for a renewal of compassion as well as a commitment to discipleship by all people.
Sermons Of Jonathan Edwards
Echoes of "The Great Awakening" Jonathan Edwards is primarily remembered today as a gifted and influential theologian. But in eighteenth-century America, his preaching resounded from pulpits throughout New England, sparking the flame of revival that became the "Great Awakening." As the fame of this Puritan pastor and preacher of revival spread far and wide, his sermons galvanized many of his listeners into reexamining their lives and faith. Ever alert to the dangers of the religiously complacent—those who only observed the surface requirements of religion—Edwards tirelessly proclaimed the overpowering majesty and grandeur of God, and humanity’s hopelessness for moral improvement short of his grace. This stirring selection of 20 messages allows readers to experience the words that swept through this young nation with a message of repentance and a call to action.
Sermons On Special Days
A treasury of sixteen powerful sermons challenging placid pew sitters to become enthusiastic followers of Christ. Uniquely contemporary and solidly based on God's Word, these messages by one of today's outstanding preachers urge Christians to put Christ first in their daily lives. According to Dr. Watley, "business as usual is no longer acceptable" for the church or its members. Emphasizing the importance of Christian responsibility, his sermons call everyone to seek God's plan and purpose for life.Beginning with the significance of the kingdom of God in the ministry and teaching of Jesus, these messages offer fresh approaches to preaching for each celebration of the Christian year from Thanksgiving, Advent, and Christmas to Easter and Pentecost. An excellent selection of themes for special holidays includes New Year's Day, Mother's Day, Children's Day, Father's Day, and Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday.
Sermons On The Beatitudes
Among the many activities which claimed Calvin's attention during his long ministry in Geneva (1536-1538; 1541-1564), preaching was the most public and perhaps the most influential. Public because, for many years, twice on Sundays and daily in alternate weeks, the Reformer stood before a congregation of townsfolk, refugees and visitors to teach, warn, appeal, counsel, admonish, and encourage. Influential because, vital as the Institutes, commentaries and treatises were to the defense and propagation of Christian doctrine, it was the Word preached and applied from the pulpit which above all fashioned Geneva's evangelical culture and made it the nerve-centre of Reformed Protestantism. This volume presents readers with a short series of sermons on the Beatitudes, translated for the first time into English by Robert White. They comprise Calvin's exposition of Matthew 5:1-12, Mark 3:13-19 and Luke 6:12-26. Five sermons were preached on the Beatitudes in the course of an extended treatment of the Synoptic Gospels. Begun in July 1559, this series had still not been completed by February 1564, when ill health forced the Reformer's retirement from the pulpit. His absence was to be permanent: he died three months later, in May 1564. The late date of these sermons, therefore, marks them out as a definitive example of the Reformer's mature pulpit style. They represent his very last effort to elucidate a New Testament text in the context of regular public worship. Translated into a modern idiom, this book will transport the reader back into sixteenth-century Geneva, where he can hear the Reformer preach on issues of perennial Christian concern.
Serpent Of Paradise
This book is a modest attempt to put the devil in his place," Erwin Lutzer begins. How can one book strike a blow to our adversary? By pointing out that although Lucifer rebelled so he might no longer be God's servant, he still is. Even today, Satan cannot make a move without God's express consent. Lutzer contends that we cannot properly understand Satan unless we first understand God. When we stand in awe of God, ill f it unnecessary to stand awe of Satan. The Serpent of Paradise will challenge popular conceptions of Satan that play into the enemy's hands. Lutzer demonstrates that Satan's bid for independence was fatally flawed the moment he sinned. Here is a book that will stimulate your faith and you to worship a God who does not lose-even when Satan appears to win. You will come away with a deeper understanding of Martin Luther's words, "Even the devil is God's devil."
