Speak the Word without Fear

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

Philippians Title

We come to this passage in Philippians ”And most of the brothers, having become confident in the Lord by my imprisonment, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.” (Philippians 1:14, ESV) Where Paul says my chains have caused others to become much more bold [lit. "abundantly bold"] to speak the word [logos] without fear.

The Church has the truth of the Word of God. We are not to apologize for the truth but we are to speak it in love. Here is a newsflash for you - the world will hate you when you tell them the truth from the Word of God but we have no other option other than speaking the truth in love.

Fear is the opposite of faith and has no place in a believers life. This message is about speaking the Word blodly and without fear.

Biblical Understanding of Church Membership

What Is a Healthy Church?

In Flock we are studying What is a Healthy Church by Mark Dever and the 9 Marks Ministry. This weeks lesson was on Biblical Understanding of Church Membership. What a refreshing book to read and hear what you have been preaching for years. I don’t know about other denominations but the Southern Baptist Convention needs to read this chapter. We talked about a need for Integrity in Church Membership and the need to quit playing a numbers game. This is good study and one I would highly recommend.

What Is a Healthy Church? 

In Flock we are studying What is a Healthy Church by Mark Dever and the 9 Marks Ministry. This weeks lesson was on Biblical Understanding of Evangelism. What a refreshing chapter to read and hear what we have already experienced in church life in general and evangelism particularly. If you have not read What is a Healthy Church? or its big brother 9 Marks of a Healthy Church I would highly recommend them to any church or ministry seeking to be throughly biblical in thier doctrine and practice.
