Preaching the Gospel in Faithful Fellowship
Sermons by Pastor Tim Travis (Page 45)
The good testimony of a disciple will be on that pleases God. In Hebrews 11:5-7, we see this testimony in Enoch, who pleased God and walked with Him. As we think about our testimony today, are we working to please God or men?
The Bible is full of words that explain, many times in legal terms, what it means to be saved, yet do we really understand their meaning? In Romans 3:24-25 we see justification used – listen as we look at the meaning!
Temptation is all around us, every day, every where. However, 1 Corinthians 10:13 reminds us that God is faithful, and if we’ll cling to Him in those moments, He will deliver us. Friends, let us be more like Joseph and flee temptation!
As we continue our study on being a disciple of Christ, we see through Luke 9:23-24 that a disciple is to be set apart. Disciples must be surrendered to Christ and allowing Him to control their lives as a living sacrifice.
1 Corinthians 9:24-27 describes to us the last of 5 crowns we can obtain as Christians – the Incorruptible Crown for mastery of the flesh.

The Bible tells us of different crowns we can win as Christians. In James 1:12, we see the crown of life, given to those that love God. So often we spend time caring for our homes, job, etc – but are we also taking the time to ensure we’re winning the crowns that will last…
As Christians, we should strive to know and do the will of God. Psalm 143:10-11 reminds us that God is teaching us His will as we go through life and look to apply the Word of God to each action that we take. To the unsaved, be saved – that is the will of God!…
To be a disciple means to be a follower or student of someone who then becomes someone who brings others to understanding what is being taught. Many Christians today take the first step of listening to the teachings of Christ, like we see in Matthew 4:18-22; 5:1, but never progress to the next stage of…
