Goodness on SermonAudio

The Westminster Larger Catechism is an oft-neglected treasure house of clearly stated biblical doctrine. In this class, we are opening the doors of the treasure house to handle and steward truths old and new for the people of God. This session continues in our consideration of the moral law of God summarized in the Ten Commandments, beginning with the preface found in Exodus 20:1-2.

Jesus feeds five thousand, revealing Himself as Israel's promised Shepherd and the true King who gives life. Discover His compassion for weary servants, His care for wandering sheep, and His abundant provision that points beyond earthly bread to salvation through His death and resurrection. Mark 6:30–44.

Luke 18:9-14 contrasts the Pharisee and the tax collector to show that true justification comes not from religious performance but from humble repentance. The Pharisee boasts of his goodness and sees no need for mercy, while the tax collector, broken by guilt, pleads, "God, be merciful to me, a sinner." His prayer reflects faith in God's atoning grace, symbolized by the mercy seat and fulfilled in...

If you have God's Word…turn with me to Mark 10. If you'll remember… last week… we began discussing the account of a young man… who lost his soul! It was a story of a young man… who had so much going for him. But in the end…he lost it all! And as we took a look at this young man last week… we spent time looking at his desire. What was his desire? He had a desire for eternal life. And if you'll reme...

"What Does it Mean to Forgive?" – Mark 11:25 I. Defining forgiveness Forgiveness is releasing a sin debtor from his love obligation to you by not requiring an apology or repentance from him, by refraining from revenge against him, by praying for him and doing good to him who injured you, remembering that God has been very patient and kind to you, in spite of your countless sins against Him and oth...

Our regular 9:00 AM worship service

Why, when we are surrounded (North, South, East and West) by hostile forces why do WE have to become our own enemy. It's like an autoimmune disease; the Body attacks itself. We think of modern parallels as the Christian Church is fragmented - not only the Big Three Traditions (RCC, Protestant and EOC) but also the hundreds of little sects and splinter groups and differences even in our own congreg...

What was the sin of Nadab and Abihu, and what does their shocking judgment teach us about worship, obedience, and the holiness of God today? In Leviticus 10:1–3, we read how these two priests offered "strange fire" before the LORD—something "which he commanded them not." Their tragic account provides a sobering warning about the danger of approaching God according to human preferences rather than...

1 Timothy part 69. Chapter 6 verse 12. Fighting the good fight of faith.

Verse by verse exposition through the book of Hebrews. (Sermon also includes the reading and exhortation from the Lord's Table liturgy) Heb 13:5 Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have.

God is faithful. But will we answer His calling with faithful obedience?

This sermon explores the comprehensive scope of salvation presented in Ephesians 2, moving from the believer's past state of spiritual death and depravity to their present position of grace and future glory. Using the analogy of the Chilean miners rescued by a capsule, the message illustrates that salvation is a gift of God's grace received through faith, rather than a result of human effort or wo...

Come before the Lord with joyful praise and grateful hearts because He is our Maker, our Shepherd, and the faithful God whose steadfast love endures from generation to generation. Thanksgiving is more than a feeling; it is our fitting response to who God is and all He has done. As we enter His presence with praise, we remember we belong to Him and discover again the blessing of resting in His good...

But we know that the law [is] good, if a man use it lawfully; Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and...

WHEN THE SHEPHERD WALKS BEFORE YOU, MERCY FOLLOWS! Psalm 23:6 KJV The child of God can face yesterday without being imprisoned by it, tomorrow without being terrified of it, and eternity without being afraid of it—because the Lord is his Shepherd! As David closes the beloved Twenty-third Psalm, he gives believers three powerful reasons to face life with confidence: God's goodness has been working...

At the start of a race, runners must not jump the gun, but wait for the right moment. The gun fires, then the race begins. In the case of a race, the timing is a practical matter of fairness. In the case of Jesus' disciples, in Luke 24:48–49, Jesus gave them a great commission and then told them to stay put, to wait in the city. But why? They waited until they were clothed with power from on high....

This psalm puts the Gospel of Christ, the good news of the God who comes to you with power and willingness to help and rescue you, even with much sorrow and anguish on the cross, in such a glorious way.
