Romans 8:28 10/1/2001 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=13 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=54 My hope for our Convention is simple. It runs upon one premise. It rides upon one purpose. It rests upon one person. My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and righteousness. 6/13/2006 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=54 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=44 Beginning in chapter two, verse one of Deuteronomy, the Bible says, “Then we turned and journeyed into the wilderness…and we skirted Mount Seir for many days. And the Lord spoke to me saying: ‘You have skirted this mountain long enough; turn northward’” (NKJV). God’s people, the people of Israel, had been poised and waiting to enter the Promised Land. Suddenly their faith failed them and their hearts were frozen in fear. Because they disobeyed God they were banished to the hot sands of the desert, left to wandering in the wilderness until a new generation would take God at His Word. 6/16/1992 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=44 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=43 Hebrews, chapter eleven, has been called God's Hall of Fame. I like to call it God's Hall of Faith. These names live on the pages of the Bible because they lived on the earth by faith. Their names are so recorded not because of their fame, but because of their faith. 6/4/1991 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=43 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=42 Last night from my hotel room, I looked at the glittering neon lights of Las Vegas and thought how people all over the world are looking for a city like Las Vegas. But, I tell you; the glitz of Las Vegas fades in comparison to the glory of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I pray Southern Baptists will be like Abraham, looking for a city that has foundations whose builder and maker is God. Sometimes, I fear we think too much about our bigness when God is more concerned about our holiness and the lostness of the world. Since we have been here this week Nevada Baptist have said again and again, “Thank you, thank you for coming to Nevada. Your coming has been a tremendous encouragement to us.” Let us go from here remembering to pray for them as they faithfully serve our Lord beyond the Bible Belt. 6/14/1989 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=42 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=41 What we need in this nation is not less praying, but more praying. Before the Supreme Court decisions of 1962 and 1963 we never felt prayer in schools was a violation of separation of church and state. Why now? The atheists are against prayer in schools, the secularists are against prayer in schools, the humanists are against prayer in schools. And that is not the company we are to be keeping. 6/17/1982 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=41 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=40 “What is Southern Baptist tradition?” Southern Baptist tradition is, on one hand, conservative theology and on the other, cooperative methodology! Our conservative heritage is based upon the belief that the Bible is the authoritative, inspired, infallible Word of God, inerrant in the original autographs. 6/17/1980 http://www.morrischapman.com/article.asp?id=40
