Untitled Sermon (11)

Anchored and Abiding

ACTS 27:29-31

29 Then fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day. 30 And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under colour as though they would have cast anchors out of the foreship, 31 Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved

Though the storms keep on raging in my life And sometimes it's hard to tell the night from day Still that hope that lies within is reassured As I keep my eyes upon the distant shore I know He'll lead me safely to that blessed place He has prepared

But if the storms don't cease And if the winds keep on blowing My soul has been anchored in the Lord

If we look at this text! It tells us that Paul was n a ship ! HE was headed to ROme and the Lord gave him a word! Te world wasn't recieved by the people they cotinued to do their own thing! He told them not to. but they went anyway!

We are warned in many diferrent ways and we must take hed! when the people finally started to see what was happin

New King James Version

4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. 5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you,you[a] will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.
