The Ruler Who Trembled
from Temperance on SermonAudio Hosted by Rev. Thomas Murray
Bible Reading: Acts 24:10-27 1. The preaching that distressed him 2. The pleasures that failed him 3. the presumption that damned him The sermon warns against the peril of spiritual conviction without genuine conversion, using the biblical figure Felix as a primary example. It explains that while the Holy Spirit can disturb the conscience through preaching on righteousness, self-control, and future judgment, this emotional response does not equate to salvation. The preacher highlights how sin, greed, and social pressure detained Felix from accepting Christ, illustrating that partial obedience is insufficient before God. Furthermore, the message emphasizes the danger of procrastination, asserting that delaying repentance hardens the heart and risks missing the opportunity for grace entirely. Ultimately, the audience is urged to respond immediately to the gospel rather than settling for a state of being 'almost saved.'
