- Description:
- Adrian Rogers was the pastor of Bellevue Baptist Church in Memphis, TN and former President of the Southern Baptist Convention. The service begins with President Paige Patterson announcing a prayer request for a staff member’s son, and one of the trustees, Jerry Holcomb, gives a word of prayer (00:00-02:19). Patterson welcomes the Southeastern Board of Trustees to campus, and he gives a shofar to two trustees who are rotating off the board (02:20-06:46). Adrian Rogers is introduced as the chapel speaker (06:47-08:23). Rogers begins his sermon by reading from 1 Corinthians 1:18-25, and the theme of his message is about the true gospel of Christ (8:24-11:26). The first point of Rogers’ sermon is about the method of God’s salvation, and he states that the cross is the only way to salvation, a method that slays human boasting (11:27-26:08). The second point of Rogers’ sermon is about the calling of the saints through the cross of Christ, and he reads 1 Cor. 1:26-30 to state that God has chosen the weak and foolish in the world to confound the wise (26:09-36:00). Rogers’ final point of his sermon is about the method of God’s servants and how it undercuts human pride, and he reads 1 Cor. 2:1-5 to state that the Christian’s aim as servants of God is to proclaim Christ and him crucified (36:01-40:37).
