Scripture(s): Acts 20:19 | | Description: A SERMON DELIVERED ON SUNDAY MORNING,
MARCH 17TH, 1861. BY THE REV. C. H. SPURGEON, AT EXETER HALL, STRAND. “Serving the Lord with all humility of mind.” — Acts 20:19. IT is not often that a man may safely speak about his own humility. Humble men are mostly conscious of great pride, while those who are boastful of humility have nothing but false pretense, and really lack and want it. I question whether any of us are at all judges as to our pride or humility; for verily, pride so often assumes the shape of lowliness when it hath its own end to serve, and lowliness on the other hand is so perfectly compatible with a heavenly dignity of decision, that it is not easy at all times to discover which is the counterfeit and which is the precious and genuine coin. You will remember that in the case in our text, Paul speaks by inspiration. If it were not for this fact, I would not have believed even Paul himself when he spoke of his own humility. So distrustful do I feel of our judgment upon this point, that if he had not spoken under the infallible witness and guidance of the Holy Spirit, I should have said that the text was not true, and that when a man should say he served God with humbleness of mind, speaking merely from his own judgment, there was clear proof before you that he was a proud man. But Paul speaketh not to his own commendation, but with the sole motive of clearing his hands of the blood of all men.

Topic: Happiness
Scripture(s): Acts 20:20-24 | | Description: September 4, 2005 - Jesus will come in His compassion and turn our feet around to walk in all His ways. As we begin to serve Jesus we will share His burden for the lost and gird ourselves with a towel that will reach out to a fallen humanity and point their feet to the only path of life that leads to true happiness. There is no other way to happiness but through the fullness of Jesus Christ.

| | The Gospel of the Grace of God by Carter Conlon
Topic: Grace Of God
Scripture(s): Acts 20:20-24 | | Description: December 3, 2006 - A true conversion of Christ becomes miraculous when we understand that there is an enablement through the Spirit to love and serve Him. God will send promptings of His love to open our hearts to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Everything that man longs for is found in Jesus and in knowing His plan for our lives. The question is, "can we be brought to this place of truth?" It is the love of God that brings you into a love relationship with Him. Jesus came to seek and save those who are lost.
