Sermons on Sin
Abram & Lot
Gen 13:1-18 After leaving Egypt—where deception led to danger, rebuke, and expulsion—Abram returns to the earlier place of worship between Bethel and Ai, seeking restored fellowship with God. Both he and Lot have acquired substantial wealth, and the land cannot sustain their combined herds, especially in the lingering aftermath of famine. Conflict grows between their herdsmen, prompting Abram to pursue peace by proposing a voluntary separation. Confident in God’s promise, he allows Lot to choose first. Lot selects the well-watered…
Tower Of Babel
Gen 10:1-11:32 After the flood, humanity began to repopulate through Noah’s sons-Shem, Ham, and Japheth-whose descendants became the nations of the world. From Ham’s line came Nimrod, remembered as a powerful ruler who founded Babylon and Nineveh, establishing the first organized kingdoms in defiance of divine purpose. His ambition set the stage for humanity’s collective rebellion in Babel, where people, united by a single language, determined to build a city and tower that would reach the heavens and secure their…
Aftter the Flood
Genesis 9:1-29 After the flood, God renews His covenant with humanity through Noah, restoring order and purpose to creation. Humanity is commanded to be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth, echoing the original mandate given to Adam. Yet, the relationship between humans and animals changes—fear replaces harmony, and for the first time, meat is permitted for food, though the sanctity of blood must be respected as a symbol of life. Blood becomes central throughout Scripture, representing atonement, covenant, cleansing, and…
Noah’s Ark
Gen 7:1-8:22 God saw that the world had grown corrupt and violent, yet one man, Noah, stood out as righteous. God called him to build an enormous ark and to gather animals — seven pairs of every clean kind and two of the unclean — to preserve life through the coming judgment. While Noah built the ark over many years, people around him laughed and dismissed his warnings. Even as the massive structure neared completion and the animals began to…
Murder
Genesis 4-5 After leaving Eden, Adam and Eve have two sons: Cain, a farmer, and Abel, a shepherd. Both bring offerings to God—Cain from his crops, Abel from the firstborn of his flock. God accepts Abel’s offering but not Cain’s, though the text does not explain why. Cain becomes angry and jealous, ignoring God’s warning that sin is “crouching at the door.” In his jealousy, Cain kills Abel, committing the first murder. When God questions Cain, he denies responsibility, replying,…
The Fall
Genesis 3 We begin with Adam and Eve living in the Garden of Eden with only one command: not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The serpent tempts Eve, questioning God’s word and suggesting God is withholding something good. Eve adds to the command by saying they must not even touch the tree, then sees the fruit as good, eats it, and gives it to Adam, who also eats. Their eyes are opened, and…
Trusting God Through Every Trial
Acts 28:1-16 Paul and his companions were shipwrecked on the island of Malta around 58 AD, but all survived. Despite cold and rain, the locals showed kindness by building a fire. As Paul helped, a viper bit him. The locals assumed he was a criminal being punished by fate, but when he remained unharmed, they changed their minds and called him a god. This shift highlights how quickly people judge based on appearances. The lesson drawn is to avoid snap…
Trial before Felix
Acts 24:1-27 Paul is transferred to Governor Felix in Caesarea due to a plot against his life in Jerusalem. Five days later, his accusers arrive. Accusation by Tertullus (the Jewish prosecutor): Flattering Felix falsely, claiming peace and prosperity under his rule. Accuses Paul of being: A “plague” (spreading the gospel). An instigator of unrest among Jews. A ringleader of the “sect of the Nazarenes” (early Christians). Claims Paul tried to profane the temple—an unproven and false charge. Paul’s Defense: Calmly…
Paul’s Ministry in Ephesus
Paul arrives in Ephesus during his third missionary journey. Instead of starting new churches, he strengthens existing ones, particularly in Ephesus, where he ministers longer than anywhere else. He meets a group of disciples who had only received John’s baptism and hadn’t heard of the Holy Spirit. Paul explains the full gospel, baptizes them in Jesus’ name, and they receive the Holy Spirit, speaking in tongues and prophesying. This brings up the debated issue of the Baptism of the Holy…
Paul’s First Missionary Journey
While they were spending time with God and fasting, God specifically called for Saul and Barnabas to do a special work for Him Acts 1:8 : “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” They set out on their journey to the Ends of the Earth by sailing to Cyprus.John Mark accompanied them.…
