I have found that the best thing to do when someone talks during my sermon is to continue preaching as if I don't see them. They will usually finish saying whatever they are saying, and the problem will be solved.
However, I think this is the best way to handle cell phone distractions in church... ;D
Pastor loses his temper in church!

It is true the person with the phone was rude, but the pastor totally blew his sermon on God's love by demonstrating his total lack of it.

I am not condoning his behavior. But, if you were in his shoes with all the children walking around, and then someone has the craziness to answer their phone you may blow a gasket as well. How on earth can one who is unsaved get anything from that type of zany service. lacks a ton of class

2Ti 2:25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
...having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck, of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme.
If anyone preach a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be accursed
But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven...

Same guy who said about his own opponents:
...having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck, of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme.
and...
If anyone preach a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be accursed
Yet Jesus said,
But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven...
christundivided said:You're good at trying to separate Christ teachings from that of His Apostles.
christundivided said:In context, its obvious Hymenaeus and Alexander rejected the sound teaching of the God in saying the "resurrection had passed". Those who preach another Gospel aren't the subject of 2 Timothy 2:25. I'm sure you already know this. I wonder why you drew the contrast in the teachings?

Just displaying an inconsistency.

The contrast was Paul's attitude, how he taught others to behave one way while he would behave another when it became personal. That's all I was trying to demonstrate.
christundivided said:I do believe you can see Christ reacting much the same way when dealing with the Pharisees. Christ had a lot of tolerance toward the common man but very little when it came to those who perverted God's teachings.

My church does not have all the zany children walking around (although you may hear a baby cry or a toddler drop a toy every so often), but I have had someone leave the service to answer the phone. It did not bother me because it almost never happens. The person who answered the phone may have been expecting an important or urgent call - you never know. I do not condone the woman's conduct in the video either, but a pastor has to learn to deal with things of that nature with grace.
I imagine the Apostle Paul preached to folks who didn't exactly sit up and listen with eyes fixed on him, yet he showed the love of Christ...
