The sermon explores the principle of submission to God-ordained authority as a method for determining the good, acceptable, and perfect will of God. Drawing primarily from Romans 13, the message argues that believers should set personal boundaries and standards not based on individual preference, but in recognition of positions established by divine order. This principle is applied across various...

The Gospel- John 3 Chapter

This episode defines a Christian not by external markers such as doctrine, baptism, or moral behavior, but by the fundamental reality of belonging to Jesus Christ. It argues that true conversion involves the Holy Spirit effectually applying Christ's redemption to spiritually dead sinners, resulting in a new union with Him. The episode emphasizes that salvation is entirely by grace through faith, d...

The sermon explores the divine call to serve, emphasizing that God's purpose for a believer's life is rooted in humility and willingness rather than personal ability or status. By examining the responses of Peter, Isaiah, Amos, and Paul, the message highlights how encountering God's holiness leads to conviction of sin and a subsequent surrender to His will. The preacher challenges the congregation...

"Those who have tried to reach Mohammedans with the gospel message and who are in the midst of the work, do not call for retreat, but for reinforcements and advance. They know that in this mighty conflict we have nothing to fear save our own sloth and inactivity." Samuel Zwemer's words echo Paul's own declaration in 2 Corinthians 4:1-6, "having this ministry by the mercy of God, we do not lose hea...

VaultAI Summary: This sermon examines the life and legacy of John Brown of Haddington, illustrating the principle from Proverbs 22:29 that diligence in one's business leads to standing before kings. The central message emphasizes that God honors consistent effort and tenacity over raw talent, as seen in Brown's self-taught mastery of Greek and his prolific theological works. Key themes include the...

You should read your Bible each and every day if possible. I don't know why it is so difficult for so many people to simply read the Bible. But I do know that the scriptures are the Word of God and when we do spend time in the Bible we are reading the absolute truth and no other book can make that claim. Walk with me through this study as we search all 66 books to see what the Bible says about its...

"If Need Be, I'll Be" The truth that His light reveals, His grace removes, His goodness replaces, and His guidance renews and readies us. The message centers on the truth that God does not merely deliver His people from bondage; He brings them under His loving government so He can guide, refine, renew, and ready them for everyday mission. Drawing from Numbers 15, 1 Peter 1, and Romans 12, the serm...

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...

Greetings and welcome! This is our daily devotional for October 1, 2026. Today, we continue our Exodus series in Chapter 8, where the plague of gnats befell Egypt and where Pharaoh's magicians testified to God's power. Make sure you're doing the same! Thanks for joining us.

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...

A verse-by-verse study through the book of James. As we wrap up our study on Godly verses worldly wisdom, we step into James chapter 4, which starts off with showing the fruit of a worldly wisdom that produces strife and confusion. Hear as Pastor Brian expounds these Scriptures.

This Bible study exhorts believers to spiritual alertness by examining the command in Romans 13 to awake out of sleep. The central argument posits that while physical lethargy is common, spiritual slumber among Christians is a serious condition that must be addressed through a renewed awareness of the approaching day of salvation. The text identifies the reasons for this wake-up call, emphasizing...

For four sessions we argued the case that the Christ is Jesus; in this final session we stop arguing and simply look, because there is a difference between examining a diamond's certificate and turning the diamond in the light. The chapter we turn is Isaiah 53, written seven centuries before Bethlehem, and we walk it slowly, stanza by stanza: the Servant God introduces, the Servant despised, the S...
