Bro. Jim Whorton – Guest Pastor – Fountain City Baptist Church
Bible Verse Text: I Corinthians 15:1-11 KJV
1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
5 And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
6 After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.
9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
Message: “What’s Your Story?”
Message Points:
- You must be born again. Do you know for sure that you have been born again?
- If we’re going to reach someone, it’s going to be because we have our own story.
- The Resurrection is Real (V. 3-8)
- Failure is not final. We serve a Savior who gives us a second chance.
- Our Responsibility is to share the Good News!
