Today we continue in our sermon series on “one thing” as seen in Scripture. When we paused the message yesterday, we were learning about the “one thing” David the Psalmist declared that he desired of God: to dwell in God’s house forever. He didn’t make this declaration in a time of peace and prosperity, but in a time of great trouble and war. Join us today for the conclusion of this sermon about David’s singular desire.

As we discovered recently, the phrase “one thing” occurs several times in Scripture. Today we go back to this series, and we take a look at what David, the sweet psalmist of Israel, declared in Psalm 27: “One thing have I desired.” David is called “a man after God’s own heart,” and it seems that if there was “one thing” that such a man desired, it ought to be something that we should desire. Join us today for the first half of this sermon, about the “one thing” that David desired of God.

As we mentioned last time, we are starting a series where we look at the use of the phrase “one thing” in the Bible. There are several places where this little phrase occurs, and we have begun looking at Paul’s use of it in Philippians 3:13-14. When we paused the message last time, we were looking at what Paul gave up when he was regenerated and then converted, and what he gained by doing so. Join us today as we consider the “one thing” Paul determined to do, which is the same thing we should be doing today.

There are several places in the word of God where the phrase “one thing” occurs. Over the next few weeks, we are going to take a look at some of the places in Scripture where this phrase is found. We start off in this sermon, taking a look at Paul’s use of. the phrase “one thing” in Philippians 3:13-14: “This one thing I do. . . .” What is the “one thing” that Paul says he is doing? Join us today for the beginning of this sermon about Paul’s singular focus.

Today we conclude our exposition of the great book of Romans. What a study this has been! What a God He is Who gave this inspired book of systematic theology to us! Paul wrote this epistle with a view toward healing the division within the Roman church, but he did so by focusing us on such matters as the nature of God, the depravity of man, the surety of God’s sovereign grace, and the need for our daily discipleship as we serve him. He concludes this letter with the inspired reminder that it is God Who can “stablish” us in the faith, and God Who is the everlasting Father and only-wise God. Join us today as we draw to the close of Romans, and hopefully find ourselves even more prepared to serve the Lord with our bodies and minds.

As we draw to the end of our exposition of Romans, we find Paul giving us one last warning against division and those who would divide us. In the previous sermon, we talked about how to “mark and avoid” these dividers. Today, we take a look at some of the resources we have to oppose division and these dividers. Join us today for this portion of the sermon, where we learn about how to stand against division.
