S. S. Times Acts 9:36-43 Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas… I. THE GOOD ARE THE REALLY RICH. Those who are full of good works and of almsdeeds are better off than those with full bank accounts. II. GOOD WORKS ARE THE TEST OF CHRISTIAN LIFE. If one is not fruitful in good works, he is not joined to Christ. III. THE GOOD ARE NOT SPARED BY DEATH because of their good works. His sickle cuts down the fairest flowers as well as the obnoxious weeds. IV. DEATH SHOWS HOW MUCH THE GOOD ARE APPRECIATED, as it shows, also, the little value of a money popularity. V. THE DEEDS OF THE GOOD REMAIN TO TESTIFY FOR THEM after death has taken them away. (S. S. Times.) Parallel Verses KJV: Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did. |
