Be Ye Steadfast Unmovable Sermon – Let Us Not Be Moved!

By Kevin Cauley

Be Ye Steadfast Unmovable Sermon – Sermon outline on the Christian duty to be steadfast and immovable. We are exhorted, “Let us not be moved!” So many fall away from the faith and need to be encouraged in that others, even those in the persecution that the early church endured, persevered and remained faithful.

PROPOSITION: In this sermon we will look at the necessity for us not to be moved away from the hope of the gospel. We should not be moved because 1) God is immovable, 2) The Lord, Jesus, is immovable, 3) The gospel is immovable, 4) The kingdom is immovable, and 5) The souls of men depend upon our being immovable.

OBJECTIVES: Each Christian should be able to demonstrate from the scriptures the need to be immovable in the faith.

AIM: I want to exhort everyone present to hold fast to the gospel that they received.
