Divine Almightyness/Omnipotence & Wisdom Note - I had a brain lapse at one point when discussing the heresies of William Lane Craig. So, I have included the following definition. Apollinarianism: the heresy that claims Jesus had a human body and soul but not a rational human mind (nous) - Pastor Johnathan

WATCH ON YOUTUBE - https://youtu.be/tjcgYDvjZik The presentation challenges listeners to examine the authenticity of their salvation by asserting that true conversion results in a visible, supernatural transformation of character and lifestyle. Drawing primarily from 2 Corinthians 5:17, the message argues that a 'new creature' in Christ cannot maintain the habits, sins, or attitudes of their forme...

Lying is not a minor fault or a harmless weakness to be excused or overlooked. It is a fundamental sin, originating with Satan himself, through which sin entered the world and brought untold destruction upon mankind. Lies conceal wickedness, pervert justice, destroy trust, and can ruin innocent lives, families, churches, and entire generations. God calls a lying tongue an abomination and warns tha...

Why would David pray "Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me" (Psalm 51:11), when he had seen the Spirit of the LORD depart from Saul (1 Samuel 16:14)? Peter was standing in faith beside the Lord Jesus Christ at the Last Supper, so read Luke 22:32 and ask what he still had to be converted from. Then ask what sacrifice God will not despise when a man comes back to...

The sermon explores the doctrine of justification by examining the Westminster Confession of Faith and the book of Hebrews, emphasizing that Christ's active and passive obedience provides a full, real, and proper satisfaction to God's justice. It argues against the notion of partial atonement by highlighting the once-for-all nature of Christ's sacrifice, which perfectly discharges the debt of sin...

The son is still a great way off — and the father has been watching the road. In one half-verse, the story turns from the son's steps to the Father's: He sees, has compassion, runs, falls on his neck, and kisses him, all before a word of confession is spoken. This lesson slows down at the emotional hinge of the whole parable and dwells on a Father who closes the distance we cannot close ourselves.

This sermon explores the theological foundation of a thriving marriage, arguing that vertical communion with God is the essential prerequisite for horizontal oneness between spouses. Drawing primarily from Psalm 128, the message posits that a husband's consistent walk with the Lord, characterized by humility and reliance on the Holy Spirit, naturally produces the fruit of a fruitful household. The...

When Jesus was arrested, beaten, and crucified, His disciples faced the darkest night of their lives. They had followed Him through years of ministry, witnessed His miracles, and confessed that He alone had the words of eternal life. Yet when the Shepherd was struck down, the sheep were scattered. Why did the disciples abandon Jesus? Was their failure inevitable because Scripture had prophesied it...

With Genesis 1:26-31, Genesis 3:1-8, and Romans 8:5-8 and with Article 14 of the Belgic Confession, we learn the original state of man, the fallen state of man, and the tragic consequences of the fall. Pastor Martijn Heijboer preaches created without sin, willfully fallen into sin, and enslaved to sin.

Happiness does not come from projecting a positive image or from covering sin, but from confession. By uncovering our sin, we experience the relief of having been covered in Christ's righteousness. BLESSING THAT IS SECURE SILENCE THAT WASTES AWAY CONFESSION THAT RELIEVES DELIVERANCE THAT GLADDENS

Today's Sunday School examines the doctrine of original sin as presented in the 1689 Confession, specifically focusing on the relationship between original corruption and actual transgression. The teaching highlights the two-fold problem of human nature: an utter privation of good and a positive inclination toward evil, which renders individuals indisposed, disabled, and opposed to all that is goo...

On Reformation Sunday the congregation hears seven movements instead of a single sermon, each one a recovery God gave His church in the 16th century. In every movement a reader reads Scripture, then the words of a reformer, followed by a short word on what was recovered and why it matters. The service moves through Martin Luther and the conscience recovered (Romans 1:16-17), Zwingli and the Word o...

This episode addresses the theological necessity of creeds, confessions, and catechisms by affirming the sufficiency of Scripture while distinguishing it from the church's responsibility to preserve and teach revealed truth. It argues that these doctrinal standards are not additions to the Bible but human instruments that help the church articulate, defend, and transmit the faith, citing passages...
