Sermon outlines and audio sermons by Kevin Cauley preached at the New Boston Church of Christ.
Heaven should motivate us to live godly lives. Sometimes, however, we lose sight of it. What keeps us from seeing it clearly? 1) Do We Think We Already Have It? 2) Are We Close Enough to God? 3) Does Our Pain Prevent us From Seeing It? 4) Is Fear Keeping Us From Seeing It? 5) Do Our Worries Block Our View of It? 6) Do We Love Hell Instead?
The Jews can obtain righteousness because 1) Paul and other Jews obtained righteousness, 2) Their fall does not end their opportunity, 3) Their righteousness comes through the Christ, 4) God is Wise. Each person will understand that the Jews can obtain righteousness through the gospel but no other way.
The Bride is blessed with peace 1) Among Men, 2) With God, and 3) With Self. Each Christian should understand that peace only comes from knowing Christ. That all would seek their peace in Christ Jesus.
Psalm 16 is a message about the Messiah and His 1) Fellowship, 2) Faithfulness, and 3) Future. Each hearer should understand the significance of David’s prophecy as related to the Messiah and as fulfilled by Jesus. The student will note that God has fulfilled His promises and prophecies about the Messiah.
Jesus’ teaching on judging is 1) Do Not Judge, 2) Judging Creates More Judging, 3) Why Do We Judge? 4) How Should We Judge? Each hearer should understand that Jesus does not want us to judge so as to write off other people, but to bring people to the message of the gospel. God wants people to be saved, and judging prevents that from happening.
We will note three lessons from Elijah's life: 1) God provides for the faithful, 2) God confirms His words with actions, and 3) God's Power for Man's Salvation is in His Words Each should be able to discuss 1 Kings 17, 18, and 19 in reference to the life of Elijah the prophet and to bring out New Testament principles from Old Testament stories.
In order to have self-control in our lives we must realize 1) What is out of control – our desires, 2) Who is in control – God, 3) How we have self-control – Jesus and the spirit, and 4) Why we need self-control – to fulfill God’s purposes. God wants us to practice self-control in our lives so that we will not be dominated by our own sinful desires and so that we will fulfill His great purposes for our lives.
The Bride is blessed with: 1) The source of salvation. 2) The substance of salvation. 3) The selflessness of salvation. 4) The state of salvation. Each person should be able to discuss the meaning of Ephesians 2:8-10 with supporting scriptures. To educate the brethren regarding Ephesians 2:8-10 so that they can discuss it with others.
Abraham had a faith that trusted in God more than 1) Himself, 2) His Family, 3) His “Morality,” 4) God’s Promise. Each person will understand Abraham’s faith and emulate it. Each person should come to trust in God and obey Him even when it “doesn’t make sense” to do so.
God, through His Son, paid for the sins of mankind by Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. It would have been unjust to force someone else to pay for these sins, but since God Himself was the one who paid for the sins, it satisfied the cause of justice. Hebrews 10:12 states, "But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God." Peter declared that it was the blood of Christ that redeemed us from sin and death (1 Peter 1:18, 19).
No. This passage of scripture instructs priests about what to do when a man suspects his wife of cheating on her, and she says that she is innocent. The gist is that a man suspects his wife of cheating on him. He takes her to the priest. She offers a sacrifice of barley meal. The priest takes some holy water and mixes it with dust from the floor of the tabernacle. This is a harmless concoction that does nothing to human physiology. The mixing of the dust with the holy water represents impurity. It was not some kind of “morning after pill.”
The Righteousness of Faith Hears Christ’s Word because 1) Self Righteousness does not Submit to God, 2) Faith Comes from Hearing the Word of Christ, and 3) Those Who Do Not Hear are Disobedient. Each person will understand that God’s righteousness may only be found through hearing/obeying Christ’s word. Each person should come to understand that hearing Christ’s word means obeying it.
The Bride is blessed with her Lord, Jesus Christ because… 1) Christ is the Head of the Church, 2) The Church is the Body of Christ, 3) The Church is the Fullness of Christ. Each person will understand that the blessing of Christ is only for the church. I want each person to think more about who Jesus Christ is in relationship to the church.
The Fight for Life is a transcript of a sermon preached by Kevin Cauley to the New Boston Church of Christ on June 26th, 2022 the Sunday after the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to reverse Roe vs. Wade. Minor corrections have been made to clarify and improve grammar.
Who dwells with God in His holy place? 1) He Who Walks Uprightly, 2) He Who Controls His Tongue, 3) He Who Does Not Take Advantage of Others. Each person will understand that to dwell with God, he must practice these things. The Christian’s walk with God must be rooted in holiness or he isn’t walking with God.
The below outline contains some lessons from James chapter 1. During the sermon, I relate these lessons to the rest of the book of James by chapter and verse. I hope you enjoy listening to this study.
In order to live close to God we must 1) Fight the Good Fight of the Faith, 2) Do the Lord’s Work in Humility, 3) Love God and Love your Neighbor. Each person should understand the lyrics of this song and how it applies to living the Christian life.
The bride is blessed with God’s revelation that enlightens her regarding 1) Jesus Christ, 2) the hope of His calling, 3) the inheritance of the saints, and 4) the greatness of His power. Each person will understand that God wants us to be educated about Jesus Christ and His doctrine.
Jesus gives us three ways to fight worrying: 1) Understand Our Value, 2) Have Greater Faith, 3) Set the Right Priorities. Each person will learn three techniques to fighting worry. This lesson will help each person reduce and eliminate stress in their lives resulting from worry.
