Reasons from scripture: 1. People would join or unite with the early church. And we see that again in Acts 9:26. 2. There were moral and spiritual standards for membership. And from Acts 9 we see that even people like Paul sought to unite with the early church. And… 3. There was spiritual discernment involved in deciding if indeed someone should be allowed in. 4. There was spiritual oversight over who came in to the church. 5. Within the church was physical as well as spiritual protection. http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/a-fearful-expectation-3 http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/a-fearful-expectation-3.mp3 Sun, 13 Apr 2008 17:49:49 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews church,membership,sheep,oversight 67:19 God judges His people differently than He judges those who are in the world. http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/a-fearful-expectation-2 http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/a-fearful-expectation-2.mp3 Sun, 06 Apr 2008 14:49:37 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews sin,judgment 53:16 God indeed is in the business of judging His people.

He is not descended from Aaron. 2. Moses said nothing about a priest coming from the line of Judah. 3. We have a traceable line of priests and can prove their descent. 4. We have daily sacrifices that our priests perform. 5. We have the Law which established the priesthood. http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/apologetic-discourse-1 http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/apologetic-discourse-1.mp3 Sun, 18 Nov 2007 06:25:15 CST Joe Tolin Hebrews judaism,sacrifice,aaronic_priesthood,melchizedek,jesus_christ 56:56 http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/are-you-greater-that-our-father-abraham http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/are-you-greater-that-our-father-abraham.mp3 Sun, 11 Nov 2007 06:20:38 CST Joe Tolin Hebrews 53:35 http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/a-full-assurance-of-hope http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/a-full-assurance-of-hope.mp3 Sun, 04 Nov 2007 05:39:04 CST Joe Tolin Hebrews 62:04 This is a reformation day overview of the life and ministry of John Calvin. http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/set-aside-for-specific-use-by-god http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/reformation-sunday-07.mp3 Sun, 28 Oct 2007 06:16:17 CDT Joe Tolin This is a reformation day overview of the life and ministry of John Calvin. john_calvin 67:54 What we have in our text is two key ingredients in the Christian life that will move us on to maturity. Last week we saw the first which was this point. 1. As believers we should learn obedience through what we suffer. (5:11-14) I showed you the connection of chapter 5:8-9 with verse 11 with the Greek word akouw. Christ learned obedience through what he suffered and because of this became the source of eternal salvation to all those who obey him. The problem was that the readers of this letter according to verse 11 had become dull of hearing. The word akouw which is the root word for the words obedience in verse 8, obey in verse 9, and hearing in verse 11 is used as a play on words to catch our attention. If the hearing of the people had grown dull, then so had their obedience. The trials and persecution should have pressed them on to maturity by pushing them toward Christ as their great High Priest but instead had driven them toward disobedience and possible apostasy. This morning I want you to see the second point. That is: 2. As believers we should learn perseverance through the beauty of our faith. (6:1-12) http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/a-spiritual-wake-up-call-2 http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/a-spiritual-wake-up-call-2.mp3 Sun, 21 Oct 2007 05:50:55 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews maturity,apostasy,faling_away,conversion,gospel 63:52 Purpose So the purpose for this passage is to press on the readers and on us today the need to move on toward Christian maturity. And that is my purpose as I preach this text. PNP So, after that lengthy introduction, this morning from our text I want you to see the first of two key ingredients in the Christian life that will move us on to maturity. Let me give you both and where they come from and then we will focus this morning on the first. 1. As believers we should learn obedience through what we suffer. (5:11-14) http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/a-spiritual-wake-up-call http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/a-spiritual-wake-up-call.mp3 Sun, 14 Oct 2007 05:25:50 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews suffering,maturity,christ,obedience 54:47 From our text this morning, Hebrews 5:1-10, I want you to see two ways in which Christ is superior in His priesthood thus making obsolete the old order of Levitical Priests. 1. Christ is superior in His priesthood because of His lineage which makes the old order obsolete. 2. Christ is superior in His priesthood because of His work which makes the old order obsolete. http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/jesus-christ-our-great-high-priest-as-compared-with-earthly-priests http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/hebrews-51-10.mp3 Sun, 30 Sep 2007 10:11:50 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews high_priest,superior,levi,aaron,cross,sacrifice 51:46 The writer of Hebrews gives us two proper biblical actions that we are commanded to do in light of the judgment of God and the conviction of the Word of God. 1. We must hold fast our confession. 2. We must draw near to the throne of grace. http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/proper-biblical-actions-in-light-of-the-judgment-of-god http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/proper-biblical-actions-in-light-of-the-judgment-of-god.mp3 Sun, 23 Sep 2007 09:42:28 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews throne_of_grace,mercy,help,forgiveness,weakness,conviction 43:37 In this text the writer gives us two preventatives against falling into the same pattern of disobedience as the Israelites. 1. An understanding of the nature and effectiveness of the Word of God is a preventative from falling. 2. An understanding of the judgment of God is a preventative from falling. http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/preventing-a-fall http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/preventing-a-fall.mp3 Mon, 17 Sep 2007 09:23:26 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews falling_away,disobedience,word_of_god,judgment,grace 51:35 Last week we saw three of four questions that are inferred and answered by the writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews about God’s rest. Today we will cover the fourth. 4. Who is an example for us to look to in order to see how we enter God’s rest? http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/striving-to-enter-gods-rest-2 http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/striving-to-enter-gods-rest-2.mp3 Sun, 09 Sep 2007 08:19:07 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews rest,jesus,joshua,faithful,finishing_well, 56:36 In our text this morning there are four questions that are inferred and answered by the writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews about God’s rest. Today we will cover three of them and next Sunday we will look at the fourth. Here are the questions. 1. Who gets to enter this rest? 2. Was the rest of God thwarted by the unbelief and disobedience of the Israelites? 3. Was the rest of God fulfilled when Joshua led the Israelites into the Promised Land? And then for next week: 4. Who is an example for us to look at to see how we enter God’s rest? http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/striving-to-enter-gods-rest http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/striving-to-enter-the-rest-of-god.mp3 Sun, 02 Sep 2007 08:49:19 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews rest,heaven,salvation,faith,jesus,disobedience,unbelief 50:40 We are to fear lest any of us should be vain hearers. http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/lest-we-fall-short-2 http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/lest-we-fall-short-2.mp3 Sun, 26 Aug 2007 08:50:16 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews word_of_god,falling_short,vain_hearer,faith,justification 43:17 1.

This morning we will see that: 3. The third way we can inoculate ourselves from the danger of unbelief is by encouraging others and being encouraged by others. (13) 4. The forth way we can inoculate ourselves from he danger of unbelief is by perseverance in the face of difficulty.

We can trust Christ in the midst of suffering because He has already tasted death on our behalf. 2. We can trust Christ in the midst of suffering because He is our great High Priest. http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/comfort-in-the-midst-of-suffering http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/comfort-in-the-midst-of-suffering.mp3 Sun, 22 Jul 2007 23:33:25 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews suffering,comfort,christ,high_priest,great,faithful,merciful 51:01 There are in this passage two reasons we must not neglect the hearing of the Gospel. 1. If we neglect the hearing of the Gospel as believers we could end up in apostasy and perdition. 2. If we neglect the hearing of the Gospel as believers we neglect the only saving message that is available to all mankind. http://www.sermoncloud.com/GFC-Gulfport/safeguarding-against-apostacy http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/233/safeguarding-against-apostasy.mp3 Sun, 08 Jul 2007 23:13:04 CDT Joe Tolin Hebrews apostasy,perdition,salvation,hebrews 44:35 We are all in danger of spiritual apostasy.
