Succeeding on the job- Part 2

Go to the ant… consider its ways and be wise. – Proverbs 6:6 NIV

When it comes to having a work ethic, “Go to the Ant, consider its ways and be wise” (Proverbs 6:6). These tiny giants of industry teach us valuable principles for living. Observe three things about them:

(1) The Ant “has no commander, no overseer or ruler” (Proverbs 6:7).

Nobody has to get it out of bed in the morning or coax it to get moving. Nobody supervises its work or enforces quality standards on it. Nobody needs to micro-manage its time on the job or make sure it starts punctually, puts in a full day, pulls its weight and doesn’t quit early. It’s self-motivated and driven by its own high standards, not by rules, regulations or the fear of being fired.

He who is slothful in his work, is a brother to… a great destroyer. – Proverbs 18:9 NKJV

God’s interested in what you do for work; He’s also interested in how you do it. The truth is, your prospects for the future are determined by your work ethic. For the next few days let’s look at some work habits from the book of Proverbs to avoid or acquire if you want God’s blessing.

Sermon: Why should I believe the Bible? 2 Timothy 3:16

Why should I believe the Bible?

Introduction

This message is among the 10 most important messages I have ever preached; yet, I do not recall ever having preached this. I have relegated it to the classroom and lecture hall, but I have never elevated it to the pulpit.

Yet, I believe this truth needs to be trumpeted from the highest housetop, to everyone who will hear. Some here do not actually believe that the Bible is flawless, and that it is God’s revelation of Himself to us.

I challenge you to get this tape and listen to it until it sinks into your spirit. Then, give it to that friend who does not believe the Bible. Today, I want to give you four reasons why I believe the Bible, and a lot of supporting rationale.

Easter sermon on Luke 24:1-8: Answers to questions about resurrection?

Text: Luke 24:1-8

Introduction

The Easter is the most important day in the Christian calendar. We celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.  As Christians, we take the fact of the resurrection without question.

However, unbelievers sometimes want more explanation before they will believe.  1 Peter 3:15 tells us to “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.”

If you have friends who do not understand your faith, you may want to take notes this morning so you can answer their questions.

1. Why is the resurrection so important, (1 Corinthians 15:1-19)

A.    It validates everything Jesus taught

I. He told us He would rise from the dead; if He did not, we would have no reason to believe anything else He told us.

II. Our salvation would be a lie

III. He would not be the Son of God, but an imposter

IV. There would be no eternal life and the grave would be the end for us.

V. It gives us hope for our own resurrection; since Christ is risen, we will also rise from the grave

VI. It is the one thing that sets us apart from ALL other world religions; WE HAVE A LIVING SAVIOR!
