Interesting Personalities In Christian Sermon DVDs

By Brenda Sullivan


Listening to the word of God is one of the ways by which Christians can grow spiritually. As a result, many church organizations have taken up the mandate to reproduce God's word in several forms such as Christian sermon DVDs, Bibles, music tapes, tracts and many more. Listening to popular preachers on DVDs is beneficial especially when important personalities in the Bible are included. Some of the personalities that can turn the lives of people when studied well include Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Samson and Jesus Christ.

Most preachers refer to Abraham as the father of faith. They are of the opinion that Abraham still trusted in God when it was very impossible to do so. Although God promised him that he would be the father of many nations, Abraham was still yet to see the possibility of the promise seeing that he had no child. This is the kind of situation most Christians in the world face today so listening to messages about Abraham can strengthen their faith.

While Abraham can be considered as an example of faith, Isaac may be a better option to look at when talking about obedience. This is because of his readiness to follow his father up to Mount Moriah for a sacrifice in the absence of an animal. Isaac's obedience even to the point of being laid at the altar is significant in Christianity.

Talking about Jacob is something many Bible scholars love to do because of the many attributes in his life. Jacob had the quality of never relenting and fighting for his blessings. Christians who won't take this for granted will also see that to get God's blessings really demands violently fighting for it in prayers. Jacob was the father of twelve children that later became the twelve tribes of Israel.

When people talk about achieving their dreams despite trials and difficulties, referring to the life of Joseph can make it sound realistic. From the treacherous hands of his brothers to the hands of his slave masters for a few pieces of silver, Joseph never knew that he was on his path to fulfilling his mandate. Most believers will be more at peace with God if they knew that God uses difficulties to train men.

Ministers and leaders in christian gatherings need to study the life of Moses. He was a unique leader who always heard from God and did what He wanted for the Israelites. Ministers can learn about his courage, prayer life and what makes him the greatest prophet in the land of Israel.

Samson was a judge for the Israelites. He is a subject of interest because of his unequaled strength. The positive and negative effects of Samson's strength and how he could have used it more effectively to the service of the people and God is a necessary topic for Christians to consider.

Most DVD messages are centered on the teachings and personality of Jesus Christ. It is good to buy such items because they reveal the way to the Father in very clear terms. The essence of salvation and the way to go to Heaven are necessary teachings one should get while there is still enough time.
