KJV Sermon Outlines
Contenders For The
Faith
Text: Jude 1:3
Introduction: This Independence Day let us not forget what we are
independent from and what it has taken for us to keep our rights and
liberties that we enjoy everyday. Then we need to set ourselves in the
defensive mode to ensure that we do not loose any more of our
religious rights and freedoms.
I. The Nature of Our Labor
Heb. 6:10 " For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour
of love, which ye have showed toward his name, in that ye have
ministered to the saints, and do minister."
A. God Rewards His laborers
1. Blessings
2. Physically
3. Spiritually
B. But that should not be the reason we serve Him
C. The nature of our labor is Love
II. The Motive of Our Labor (Salvation)
Psalms 27:1,2 " The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I
fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up
my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
A. We need to work to keep what freedoms we still have
B. Like the song we'll work till Jesus comes
C. We need be like Paul and fight a good fight. Don't give up!
III. The Strength of Our Labor (Jesus)
A. Our energy comes from the sun and from the Son. (Our Strength)
B. Jesus provides the fuel to keep in the race. (Our Provider)
C. Our Power - Acts 1:8 " But ye shall receive power, after that the
Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in
Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost
part of the earth."
IV. Fight to Keep Our Religious Liberties
A. Don't be afraid of the enemy
B. Get plugged into the power source
Conclusion:
Illustration: We hold these truths to be self-evident-that all men are
created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain
unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are
instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of
the governed.
