Saints,

Paris Reidhead preaches what could be called one of the most influntial sermons of the 20th century. The real point of this sermon is an indictment of individuals and organizations practising humanism behind a mask of Christianity! "This sermon should be preached on a regular basis in every church in America!"

I just spoke to 2 young christian men that have never heard this message so I do hope that "many" more can hear this message and be blessed. If you have heard this message before leave a comment on how it blessed you and spoke to you.

Has anyone heard this for the first time from this thread?

Yes, Sermonindex.net was the first time I had ever heard of Ten Shekels and a Shirt by Paris Reidhead.
I have lost count as to how many times I have listened to that sermon.
I have lost count of the number of people I have recommended that sermon to.

The sermon utterly changed my way of thinking about "The Ministry"...
and now, today over a year later from the first time hearing that message, "whenever" I hear people talk about loving Ministry and being "called" to be a Minister, I automatically ask them, "Why???"
and sadly, most have hearts for "Ministry" or for "People" more than they do for Jesus and His Cross Blood and Sacrifice.

It is a sermon that will "suddenly HIT you" as you are listening...and you will never be the same again!

Amen.

...you will never be the same again!

This was my reaction as well. 3 years ago it dropped me to the floor. I couldn’t get low enough. It is a wonderful thing to be prostrate in the presence of our King. This message truly serves up a heapin’ helpin’ of humility. I have returned many times for more. I think of this message ever time I begin to question my motives. Something we should all do daily…die to self…

No, it isn't a video of the sermon, but the audio with a picture of Paris Reidhead.

Hi Greg...

The first time that I heard this sermon was here at SermonIndex (shortly before becoming a member). In fact, this message was one of the reasons that I kept coming back for more!

I don't know how many times I have heard this message since 2003, but I feel that same "holy weight" upon me every time. Interestingly, I feel this same sort of "weight" when I hear many of the messages available at this website. These messages (such as "Ten Shekels and a Shirt" and those from Brother Ravenhill) have helped mold me tremendously over the past several years. This is why I feel that SermonIndex is a treasure in a barren online wilderness!

May the Lord continue to bless this ministry and allow it to bring this message (and other messages) of spiritual awakening to people around the world!

:-)

Ah, ok. Thanks.

Amen to all the testimonies. It is great to hear how divine truth still changes life's in a powerful way.

Do share this message with others brethren. May we all "catch" a glimpse of the glory of Christ so that we may all say as the apostle paul:

"I look upon everything as loss compared with the overwhelming gain of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord."

Temptation and Sin by Paris Reidhead
https://www.sermonindex.net/modules/mydownloads/visit.php?lid=16439

I consider this sermon by Paris Reidhead to be on par with Ten Shekels and a Shirt.

Ten Shekels.. attacks the humanism that has penetrated Christian affection and evangelism.

Temptation and Sin attacks the methodology that has replaced the witness of the Holy Spirit in Christian conversion and conversation.

I have listened to "Ten Shekels and a Shirt" many times it is one of the most life changing sermons you could listen to. I aquired a copy of it from a church out in Colorado several years ago. I heard at least 2 years before I heard of SI.

"The Cost of Dicipleship part 1-12" by Paris Reidhead gives a real clear picture of the whole christian life.

In fact anything by Paris will change your way of thinking.

This sermon by Paris Reidhead (Ten shekels and a shirt) is not just for ministry, but useful for individuals as well.

The text (I shortened it)below is the one that stands out the most for me which I plan to incorporate into my prayers.

"Lord Jesus, I'm going to obey you, and love you, and serve you, and do what you want me to do, as long as I live."
