Perryism – People try to score points with insults when they can’t make a point with intelligence.
PHall | November 13, 2012
It is so easy to tell when someone has no real argument, it’s when they become argumentative. An example of this is Acts 24.5 where Tertullus calls Paul a pest (NASB) or plague (HCSB). So when you get insulted, just smile and be silent, because they just showed they have no real answers. And while […]
Acts 2 – Tongue Speaking: How, Why, and What Is Happening Here
PHall | October 3, 2012
The tongue speaking in Acts 2: (1) Gains attention (2:5-7); (2) Amazes people (2:7); (3) Equates all people (2:6-11; 2:17-8); (4) Brings glory to God (2:11,19); (5) Fulfills prophecy (Acts 2:16); and (6) Leads to salvation (2:21,38). That is the purpose of plain, non-miraculous, Bible preaching today: (1) To preach we must gain people’s attention […]
Acts 20:7 – Preach or Teach?
PHall | October 1, 2012
In Acts 20:7 when Luke discusses Paul speaking, the Greek is dialegomai suggesting Paul’s “preaching” (KJV) is more like our “teaching.” We can learn the meaning of a word both through its denotative and connotative definitions. First, look up dialegomai in a lexicon and it is denotatively defined as “to say thoroughly” (Mickelson) and “1. to […]
John 20:27 – A Resurrection-less Christianity
PHall | September 13, 2012
A Resurrection-less Christianity. Satan has excised the centrality of resurrection from Christianity. First, by deceiving people into believing Jesus was only metaphorically resurrected therefore removing Jesus’ physical resurrection (Jn.20.27). Second, by removing resurrection from 1) the act and 2) purpose of baptism through removing immersion as a physical symbol of resurrection (Col.2.12). Third, by removing […]
Acts 2:23 – Sovereignty and Sin
PHall | February 11, 2012
Does God in His sovereignty cause people to sin to accomplish His purposes? Involved in this question are deep theological issues beyond our inadequate ability to completely fathom and understand. Providence, predestination, foreknowledge, and free will, are intricately woven within this complex issue. Let’s look at three Biblical situations, one guiding truth, ending with an […]
Acts 4:36 – What Would Your Nickname Be?
PHall | July 17, 2011
Nicknames can be uplifting, fun or derisive. Some, called diminutives, are simply altered forms of formal names – Nick is a nickname short for Nicolas. Perry is short for Perrynoid. Parents often give nicknames to their children…and no I will not embarrass mine…at least this time. Sports are filled with nicknames – Do you know […]
Acts 7 – Preach the Scriptures
PHall | July 9, 2011
While reading a gospel magazine, I kept noticing I wasn’t reading something. Most every article has the same void. In fact seventy-five percent have the same flaw – no scriptures. And remember, this was supposed to be a gospel magazine. So I e-mail the editor of the magazine. His response is that scriptures never prescribe […]
Acts 7 – The Tragedy of Unfulfilled Glory
PHall | February 1, 2011
Abortion, The Declaration of Independence, The Restoration Movement, Slavery, Denominationalism, Jewish History, and Stephen’s sermon before the Sanhedrin – Yep, I connected all those in Sunday’s sermon – “Stephen Before the Sanhedrin.” It is about the tragedy of unfulfilled glory, a recurring phrase found in the sermon with various applications. Click “Sermons” and you can listen […]
Acts 21:1 – NASB vs. HCSB vs. ESV
PHall | January 28, 2011
Acts 21:1 NASB When we had parted from them and had set sail, we ran a straight course to Cos and the next day to Rhodes and from there to Patara; Acts 21:1 HCSB After we tore ourselves away from them and set sail, we came by a direct route to Cos, the next day […]
