This collection of sermon outlines is offered as testimony to the dedication and preparation with which Ruble Thompson served his master, the Lord Jesus Christ. Written and delivered between 1960 and 1972, these outlines represent only a brief glimpse into the methodology employed by Reverend Thompson for the purpose of founding, nourishing, nurturing, then ultimately challenging the many flocks he tended. Throughout his service as pastor and evangelist he ushered countless souls to the foot of the cross where he helped them discover the eternal joy that awaits through salvation by the blood of Jesus. In consideration of such a holy duty, Ruble put a great deal of study and research and meditation into every sermon he delivered. It is this steadfast devotion to the interpretation of God's word (the Bible) and the demonstration of its power to transform lives and hearts that is presented for exhibition and study upon these pages.
