Quality Christians

Last week Brother Patterson’s lesson, “Quality Christians,” was tied into Matthew 4:18-22, with a concentration on verse 19: “Then He (Jesus) said to them, ‘Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.’”

Here are a several points from his sermon:

  • “One thing about having quality—if you don’t have it, you can’t give it.”


  • “We are quality. We are prime. We are the best for God.”

  • “To use proper lure and endure discomfort…these are some things we must go through.”

  • “When you get out on the battlefield and folks are shooting back at you, you need to be qualified. You need to get qualified.”

  • “Quality counts in the church.”

  • “Some folks try to focus on quantity, but quality counts.”

  • “Heaven is big enough for all of us. That’s why we’re working together making one another quality Christians.”

  • “You’ve got some who don’t want to be taught. Just like you’ve got some who only want to teach all the time. Be able to be taught.”

  • “We need to be quality Christians, teaching one another to be the best we can be.”

  • “If God can’t depend on us, who can He depend on?”

Brother Patterson also read Titus 2:1-15, which gives instruction for sound doctrine, sound living, behavior and relationships for people in all walks of life. He also referenced Matthew 9:37-38 about how the “Harvest is great but the laborers are few…"
