Will of God on SermonAudio

We discuss the late Stephen Jay Gould's attempt to keep "religion" (Creationism) out of science with what the separation of the two "magisteria" or what he called the Non-Overlapping Magisteria: NOMA. https://bbfohio.com

The sermon explores the theological significance of Psalm 72:16, interpreting the image of a handful of corn on the mountaintops as a metaphor for the advancement of God's kingdom through the simple sowing of the gospel. It argues that the church's growth is not achieved through military power or human effort, but through the divine power inherent in the preached Word, which transforms even the mo...

In Episode 8 of Insaka Season 3, the conversation turns to Biblical Preaching and the responsibility of those entrusted with proclaiming Scripture to handle God's Word faithfully, clearly and with conviction. Biblical preaching goes beyond delivering an inspiring message. It seeks to faithfully communicate what God has revealed in His Word, point people to Christ and equip believers to live in obe...

Doreen Virtue explains how Satan uses counterfeit spiritual experiences and false teaching to draw people away from the true gospel. She addresses the New Age emphasis on feelings, distortions of God's love, and deception concerning sin, judgment, and salvation. Pointing to Christ's sinless life, substitutionary death, and bodily resurrection, she urges listeners to repent, trust in Christ, and te...

The devotional emphasizes the necessity of shifting the focus of prayer from personal needs to the exaltation of God, drawing on Psalm 66 to illustrate that God listens to those who approach Him with a heart free of cherished iniquity. It argues that true prayer involves high praises that lift up God's character and glory, a practice that enriches the believer's spiritual life and aligns with the...

In this concluding message of Charity and Its Fruits, Jonathan Edwards lifts our eyes from the conflicts and imperfections of this present world to reveal heaven as the absolute perfection and ultimate destination of divine love. Long hidden from print until its nineteenth-century discovery, "Sermon XVI: Heaven a World of Love" presents a radiant vision where God serves as the infinite, unhindered...

Is God ever angry with Christians when they continue to struggle with sin? In this episode, Pastor Richard Caldwell addresses the heavy weight of a guilty conscience by examining the vital difference between God's judicial wrath and His fatherly discipline. While the wrath our sins deserve was fully poured out on Jesus Christ, securing our justification by faith alone, God still administers discip...

The sermon examines the phrase "reformed and always reforming" by contrasting modern liberal interpretations with the original 17th-century intent of Jodocus Lodenstein, who argued that the church is always in need of being reformed according to the Word of God. Using Acts 2:42 as the primary text, the message outlines how the early church continued steadfastly in apostolic doctrine, fellowship, t...

Jesus related the Parable of the Great Supper, reclining at a meal in the ruler of Pharisee's table. In the parable a great supper had been prepared with invitations sent out to the special guests. All was prepared. The parable was meant to demonstrate that the Jewish nation was missing God's great invitation to His full provision of salvation. The servants sent into the highways and hedges would...

In Romans 1:17, Paul explains that the gospel reveals the righteousness of God, received by faith in Jesus Christ. Dave Jenkins examines justification by faith alone, Christ's imputed righteousness, and the Old Testament foundation of Paul's teaching. This sermon shows why Christian assurance rests on Christ's perfect righteousness and how believers continue living by faith through suffering, temp...

This devotional explores the theological definition of true repentance as the dying of the old nature and the coming to life of the new, grounded in the Heidelberg Catechism. The central message emphasizes that while salvation is entirely God's work, it results in a tangible transformation where believers are no longer enslaved to sin but are empowered to walk in newness of life. Drawing primarily...

Abner makes Saul's son Ish-bosheth king over Israel while David reigns over Judah in Hebron. Study and transcript: https://sharonrpc.org/devotions/2-samuel-2-8-11-trust-god-through-hard-providence

We Need God To Reveal It The message centers on our complete dependence upon the Lord to see life, sin, ourselves, and Jesus rightly. Like Israel in Numbers 15, we are naturally inclined to follow our own hearts and our own eyes, but God calls us to look, listen, and live—to look to Him, listen to what He says, and then walk by faith in what He reveals. The contrast between Joshua and Caleb and th...

Your family schedule is a statement about what matters most in your life. God has given us a tremendous gift in time – and everyone uses it for the things they believe to be the most important. Kevin Swanson, Todd Strawser, and Danny Craig talk about how to evaluate your schedule, and what it says about your goals, your objectives, and your reason for living. They discuss: - Is "me time" a Christi...

The early creeds helped the church clarify biblical truth, defend against false teaching, and preserve sound doctrine. In this episode of Contending for the Word Q&A, Dave Jenkins explains how these statements connect believers to the historic Christian faith while remaining subject to Scripture. Drawing on Jude 3 and 2 Timothy 1:13–14, this episode encourages Christians to guard sound doctrine an...

During this period, Spurgeon is locked in combat, contending for the honour and glory of Christ. This sermon is situated both in the overall battle he is fighting, but also in the context of a pastoral ministry in which he is conscious of the need to feed and encourage the flock of Christ. So, having previously preached on the Lamb in glory (the previous sermon in this volume, number 2095, if you...

John 3:16 The best words ever spoken, by the best person who ever lived, to address the greatest need that man ever had

In this multi-part series, we journey through Volume II of Jonathan Edwards's Works to explore how one of history's keenest theological minds wielded both the thunder of divine judgment and the blinding beauty of sovereign grace. From the terrifying, Old Testament-anchored metaphors of Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God and Sinners in Zion Tenderly Warned, to the surgical dissection of the self-...

This instructional kids message defines the theological concepts of faith and repentance using the Westminster Shorter Catechism as a framework. Faith is presented not merely as intellectual assent but as a complete trust and resting in Jesus Christ for salvation, illustrated through the physical act of sitting in a chair. Repentance is distinguished from mere remorse, defined instead as a decisiv...

Look • Listen • Live The message centers on God's gracious instruction in Numbers 15:37–41, where He gave Israel tassels with a blue thread as a visible reminder to look, remember, and do what He had commanded. The principle carries directly into our lives today: look to Jesus, listen to what He has said, and live by faith in what He gives us. We do not naturally drift toward obedience. Our hearts...

Went over some developments on the Mormon front, the fact that Mormonism really is splintering fast into self-prophet groups with all sorts of different views and beliefs. We also looked at a statement posted by Leighton Flowers (written by someone else) that said that if Judas or Pilate had "repented" that God could have found "someone else." We thought through what that would mean and realized t...
