Pastor Frank Hampton Jr. Sermons

Conversion

The gospel, when accepted by humanity causes both an instantaneous work of spiritual conversion and initiates an ongoing process of spiritual conversion. Praying through to God and obtaining a born again experience isn’t the fullness of our salvation experience; we must go on to entire sanctification, and be instantaneously, internally purged, upon praying through to heaven by the living power of the Holy Spirit, to experience the totality of conversion and the privileges made available by the gospel. 

Catching Away the Word

The Word is the only preventive against sin; therefore the devil's objective any and every time he comes is to catch the Word out of your heart. The Word is one of the most powerful weapons that the saints have! When this world passes away, you will have something to stand on if you are standing on God's Word. But if you allow the devil to take the Word out of your heart, you have no preventive, and therefore cannot help but sin. Let us therefore hide the Word deep in our hearts where that wicked one cannot touch it! (Preached on 7/17/2004).

The Damnation of Hell

Since the genesis of time there has never been a single individual who was originally intended to spend eternity in hell. Hell is not prepared for humanity, but "for the devil and his angels". Man is like God in that, there is a part of man that will never cease to exist.  An endless duration of torment waits for the soul who rejects God during their life. May God grant us the strength and will to escape the damnation of hell by whatever means necessary.
Preached on: 9/26/1982

An Increase of Joy

The saints of God cannot last without joy. The joy of the Lord is your strength; no joy, no strength. Joy is not an emotional response due to favorable circumstances, but it is your spirit's response when God witnesses His approval upon your life. Therefore joy is not something that can be conjured up the moment you are faced with a hard trial. Joy is accumulated as you walk with God. Listen closely to this message, for you will not be able to stand before what is ahead without the sufficient strength. (Preached on 10/5/1990).

Haters of God

Either you love God or you hate God, there is no middle ground. The concept of hating God is not a foreign idea in our world today, in fact, the world is filled with haters of God. Knowing this, think it not strange when you are hated by the world, "for the world hated Christ before it hated you"; but rather expect to be hated by the world, and view it as a confirmation of your "Christ"-ianity. If you love God you'll keep his commandments and you'll stand for all the truth His word sets forth. If you hate, resist, or deny Gods commandments you hate, resist, and deny God himself. Listener, may we love God with all of our heart, mind, soul, and strength. 

Would You Offer It to the Governor?

The service that you are giving to your earthly responsibilities should not come close to the level of service that you are giving to God. But the sad thing is that there are some whose service to God would not even to be acceptable in their natural affairs. How about your service? "If Jesus came to your house to spend a day or two -If He came unexpectedly, I wonder what you'd do." Would you have to alter your level of service? God burdened Pastor Hampton's heart with this all-important message, and we all would do well to carefully examine ourselves in comparison.

About My Father’s Business

Take a second and really consider this question. Are you more concerned with your business or God’s business? It is not optional or up to subjective decision that we make spirituality our driving force and chief concern in life; it “must” be. Either our Father’s business is prime to us or He wants absolutely nothing to do with us. Lord help us all to completely remove our focus from ourselves and realign it to the work of God. 
Date preached: 12/6/1981

Being Ready

Listener, can you honestly say that at this moment you are ready to do whatever God calls you to do? Pastor Hampton brought out the point that to be ready is to be prepared to act immediately; without hesitation. God only works through and for those who are ready. Many have blown opportunities that God presented because they were unready. May this all-important message cause us to take inventory of ourselves, knowing that readiness is not an option. (Preached 12/12/1982).

The Supreme Sacrifice

God sacrificed His son for us, therefore we ought to live our life as a physically moving, living, or quickened sacrifice; spiritually dead to ourselves, sin, and the disposition to sin, and totally committed to serve God, our brethren in the Lord, and our human family. God is requiring what we hold dearest, yea even our own life. May the Lord grant us all a sincere grasp of this message. (preached on 09/07/86)

Holding Ourselves in Check

In order to stay in this fight, we must have our body subdued. This is the burden that God placed on Bro. Hampton's heart to deliver that Sunday Evening in 1995, but it is still so needful. We must not only have our body in check, we must keep it in check no matter the circumstances. If you let your body have its way in one area, this looseness will most certainly spread to other areas. And once you let the flesh get out of line, it is very hard to get it back under. This not only pertains to the natural appetites, but also to the mind. The fight is in the mind first; if you do not keep your mind in check, then your actions will follow. May we all take careful inventory of ourselves after hearing this message. (Preached 4/2/1995).
