Marks of the Holy Spirit – sermon

Posted by: Staff | Comments (0)

The following are excerpts from a sermon by George Whitefield entitled, Marks of Having Received the Holy Spirit. I have taken the liberty to add some structural elements to make it more outlined. The content is all his.

Marks of having Received the Holy Ghost.

Acts 19:2, "Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed?"

Two different significations have been given of these words. Some have supposed, that the question here put, is, Whether these disciples, whom St. Paul found at Ephesus, had received the Holy Ghost by imposition of hands at confirmation? Others think, these disciples had been already baptized into John's baptism; which not being attended with an immediate effusion of the Holy Spirit, the Apostle here asks them, Whether they had received the Holy Ghost by being baptized into Jesus Christ? And upon their answering in the negative, he first baptized, and then confirmed them in the name of the Lord Jesus.

The Final Judgment – classic sermon

Posted by: Staff | Comments (0)

This is a sermon that was printed in 1827 by ELIHU W. BALDWIN, A.M. It contains some good material that can be made contemporary easily.

THE FINAL JUDGMENT.
HEBREWS, IX. 29.—After this the Judgment.

Whilst another year is ending, and time itself, as it respects us, is fast hastening to its close, the question very naturally arises, What shall come after death? The voice of inspiration replies, After this the Judgment. There is no need of entering upon a laboured proof of the doctrine so plainly declared, That there will be a day of Judgment for mankind. It is what seems written by the finger of God himself upon the consciences of men. The impression is nearly universal, with Pagans and Mahomedans, as well as Jews and Christians, that every one of us shall give account of himself to God. This impression is strengthened by a view of the very unequal and indiscriminate allotments of the present life. Here the virtuous are often the objects of hatred and relentless persecution. Here the man of ambition and dark intrigue, circumvents and treads down his more honest rivals. Here Providence often afflicts even the most pious; while the licentious, and proud, and oppressive, are, perhaps, suffered to enjoy uninterrupted prosperity. Now we believe, assuredly, that "God is just;" and we infer, that he will so exhibit himself by another and more equal distribution of his favours and frowns. We conclude with the wise man, "that God shall judge both the righteous and the wicked." Conscience and reason, then, unite with revelation, in saying, that "God hath appointed a day, in which he will judge the world in righteousness." No language can be plainer, and no event more reasonably anticipated.

Conversion of Cities — Classic Sermon

Posted by: Staff | Comments (0)

The following sermon was included in NATIONAL PREACHER magazine in November 1827 by Rev. William Patton, A.M. In it he stresses the need to reach cities for Christ. It was published in New York which at that time had a population of 166,086 people. How much more relevant is the message today. His six main points are in themselves fertile ground to build a more contemporary outline.

 

THE DUTY AND IMPORTANCE OF SPECIAL EFFORTS FOR THE CONVERSION OF CITIES.

A Great Joy in Heaven – sermon

Posted by: Staff | Comments (0)

The following sermon outline is a portion of a larger sermon by the well known and loved Puritan preacher, Thomas Watson. It is an excerpt out his sermon entitled, The Death of the Righteous.

A Great Joy in Heaven (a retitled excerpt)
by Thomas Watson  (Taken from sermon, The Death of the Righteous)

The enjoyment of God implies our SEEING him. "We shall see him as he is." How shall we see God?

1. We shall see him INTELLECTUALLY, with the eyes of the mind
.

This divines call the beatific vision. We shall have a full knowledge of God—though not know him fully. This sight of God will be very glorious—as when a king, on his coronation-day, shows himself in all his royalty and magnificence.

Free at Last – funeral sermon

Posted by: Staff | Comments (0)

The following sermon outline is a portion of a larger sermon by the well known and loved Puritan preacher, Thomas Watson. It is an excerpt out his sermon entitled, The Death of the Righteous.

Free at Last! (a retitled excerpt)
by Thomas Watson  (Taken from sermon, The Death of the Righteous)

At death the saints shall be freed from all the troubles and incumbrances to which this life is subject. "Sin is the seed sown—and trouble is the harvest reaped!" Euripides. Life and trouble are married together. There is more in life to trouble us, than to tempt us. Parents divide a portion of sorrow to their children, and yet leave enough for themselves. "Man is born to trouble." Job 5:7. He is heir to it, it is his birth-right. You may as well separate weight from lead, as trouble from the life of man.

King Henry's emblem was a crown hung in a bush of thorns. There is a far greater proportion of bitterness, than pleasure in this life. "I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon." Prov 7:17. For one sweet ingredient there were two bitter; for the sweet cinnamon, there were bitter myrrh and aloes.

The Losers in Death (a retitled excerpt)

The godly are great gainers at death—but the wicked are great losers at death.

They lose four things:

Final Freedom from Sin (a retitled excerpt)
by Thomas Watson  (Taken from sermon, The Death of the Righteous)
 

The saints, at death, have great immunities and freedoms. An apprentice, when he has served his time, is made free. Just so, when the saints have finished their time of living, they are made free! They are not made free until death.

At death they are freed from a body of SIN.

Gain Follows Death – funeral sermon

Posted by: Staff | Comments (0)

The following sermon outline is a portion of a larger sermon by the well known and loved Puritan preacher, Thomas Watson. It is an excerpt out his sermon entitled, The Death of the Righteous.
 

Gain Follows Death (a retitled excerpt)

by Thomas Watson (Taken from sermon, The Death of the Righteous)

  It should exhort us all to labor to say as the apostle, "For to me, to live is Christ!" Christ is the principle of my life, the end of my life, the joy of my life. If we can say, "For to me, to live is Christ," we may comfortably conclude, "and to die is gain!"

For Me to Live is Christ (a retitled excerpt)
by Thomas Watson (Taken from sermon, The Death of the Righteous)
      

"For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain!" Philippians 1:21

Paul was a great admirer of Christ. He desired to know nothing but Christ, and him crucified. 1 Cor 2:2. There is no medicine like the blood of Christ!

Favor With God — sermon

Posted by: Staff | Comments (0)

Favor with God,  a sermon about favor with God and how it unfolds in our lives.
by Eddie Lawrence

favorkeyText: Luke 1:6 Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 28 And having come in, the angel said to her, “Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!” 29 But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered what manner of greeting this was. 30 Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31 And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS…..38 Then Mary said, “Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her. (NKJV)  

1. An Announcement from God (v26-28)
-Mary was made aware that God was speaking to her. In her case, it was an angel. God has a way of getting our attention when He desires to call us into action for His plans and purposes.

-(List the ways that God can speak to us and briefly share those here in the sermon)
