“COMMITMENT TO THE CHURCH’'
MATTHEW 16:13-20 

INTRO: From the biblical perspective, THE GREATEST INSTITUTION ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH IS THE CHURCH 
OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. Every born again believer is a part of the CHURCH and yet we often fail to realize 
HOW SIGNIFICANT THE CHURCH IS IN GOD’S PLAN AND PROGRAM FOR THIS DISPENSATION OF GRACE. 
Because of that there are many Christians who fail to be committed to the church of God to the degree that 
Christ desires. Consequently, the respect for and the ministry of the church is not to the level that God would have 
it to be. Therefore, in this study, we are going to take a closer look at the church as revealed in the Word of God with 
the prayer that each of us will grow in our understanding of and commitment to THE GREATEST INSTITUTION ON 
THE FACE OF THE EARTH.

“GOD’S WORK THROUGH AND FOR THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL”
ROMANS 11:25-36

INTRO: In recent days we have been hearing a lot in in the news about the Nation of Israel that is in conflict with Iran. Hearing about Israel’s battles is not really new because ever since they became a Bonafide nation in 1948, when Harry S. Truman was the US president, other nations have been trying to destroy them. Those wars that many of us can remember include:
1) The War for Independence – 1948-49
2) The Suez Crisis – 1956
3) The Six Day War – 1967
4) The Yom Kippor War - 1973
5) The War with Lebanon – 1982
6) The 2nd War with Lebanon – 2006
7) The War with Hamas and Iran – 2023 to the present

“OUR HEAVENLY FATHER” 
MATTHEW 6:1-15 

INTRO: FATHER’S DAY is a very special time for those of us who have had GODLY FATHERS in our 
lives. It is a time for us to thank and praise God for giving us fathers who respect and serve Him as 
well to challenge us all as fathers to maintain the type of fatherhood that is GOD HONORING. I have 
been preaching FATHER’S DAY sermons for over 50 years always exhorting us as fathers to be the 
dads God wants us to be. But today the Lord has led me in a different direction in that we are going 
to take a look at OUR HEAVENLY FATHER as He is revealed in what we call THE LORD’S PRAYER in 
Matthew 6:1-15.

“REMEMBERING THE FAITHFUL” 
JOHN 15;1-14 
TEXT: VERSE 13 

“GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS, THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS.” 
INTRO: This is MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND in America when millions of people will be gathering for picnics, parades, 
and various festivities and yet in doing so, many will not take into consideration the depth of the significance of the 
holiday we are celebrating. MEMORIAL DAY is one of several PATRIOTIC HOLIDAYS for us in America when focus on 
the BLESSINGS OF GOD IN AMERICA AND HOW HE USED MANY DIFFERENT PEOPLE TO BRING OUR NATION 
TOGETHER. This weekend in particular, we will focus on those in the ARMED FORCES who gave their lives for our 
freedoms (THE HISTORY OF MEMORIAL DAY). My title for today’s message is “REMEMBERING THE FAITHFUL” in 
which we will focus, not just on those who gave their lives for the freedoms of our nation, but on others who gave 
their lives for the spiritual freedom of many, including our LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST.  Our scriptural text is 
John 15:13 that says, “GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS, THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS 
FRIENDS.”

“BURDEN BEARING IN THE FAMILY OF GOD” 
GALATIANS 6:1-5

INTRO:  The family of God is the MOST UNIQUE ENTITY ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH. It would take all day to explain 
that statement but consider just a few elements of the FAMILY OF GOD. 
● We are all spiritually cleansed by the Blood of Jesus Christ. 
● We are all bound for an eternity with Christ in Heaven. 
● We are made up of people from all races, nationalities, and cultures. 
● We are all indwelt by the Holy Spirit. 
● We all have direct access into the presence of God.

“THE WOMAN WHO FEARS THE LORD” 
PROVERBS 31:30,31 

INTRO: Mother’s Day is always a special time of the year for us here in America as well as in the church.  What a 
blessing it is to focus on Godly mothers and give them special respect and recognition for their walk with and 
service unto the Lord. Personally, I am very thankful for the grandmothers and mothers God placed into my life:
