Shame on SermonAudio

An entitled heart demands what it thinks it deserves and ends in shame, but a humble heart submits to God and finds wisdom. 'I Deserve' destroys, but gratitude builds.

Luk 20:9 Then began he to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time. Luk 20:10 And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty. Luk 20:11 And again he sent another servant: and they...

The sermon explores the theological connection between the Day of Atonement rituals in Leviticus 16 and the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who suffered outside the gate to sanctify the people with His own blood. By contrasting the Old Testament system, where sacrificial remains were burned outside the camp, with the New Covenant, the message emphasizes that believers are called to follow Chri...

1 For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain: 2 But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention. 3 For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile: 4 But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with t...

In this episode, Pastor Chuck and Dana talk about guilt and shame and what it does in our lives.

The sermon centers on the imperative to live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present world, as taught in Titus 2. It emphasizes that while societal pressures and worldly lusts may encourage compromise, believers must hold firm to their faith without shame, even when facing rejection or disdain from others. The message contrasts the fleeting and often destructive nature of worldly pleasures...

In Paul's continued argument reflective of the downward spiral of humanity's rejection of God; God's response, in His wrath. God removed His restraining grace, resulting in the sinners' falling headlong into vile affections. In their acts, they contravened with God's well-ordered creation pattern and purpose for male and female enterprise. The enterprise, which was by nature, 'divinely designed, d...

This sermon addresses the tendency of believers to remain silent in the face of cultural opposition, using the events surrounding Jesus' arrest as a primary illustration. It argues that while silence may seem safe, it often stems from intimidation and a hidden shame regarding one's faith, as seen in the disciples' flight and Peter's denial. The message contrasts this passive withdrawal with the bo...

This sermon examines Paul's argument in 1 Corinthians that God chooses the foolish and weak things of the world to shame the wise and strong, ensuring that no human can boast in their own abilities. The central message emphasizes that salvation is entirely of grace, revealed to those who recognize their spiritual poverty and inability to save themselves. By contrasting the self-sufficiency of the...

What does it mean to walk as children of light? In Ephesians 5:6–16, we learn why Christians are called not only to reject the works of darkness but also to reprove them in love. Having received Christ's gospel-centered love, believers are called to live differently from the world. This sermon explains why sin must be reproved, not with pride or condemnation, but with a redemptive desire to expose...

Main Idea: God showed mercy to sinners by providing covering through sacrifice. Main Points: I. Eve Named in Hope (v. 20) II. God Covers Their Shame (v. 21a) III. Bloodshed Points Forward (v. 21b)

When we are taught by our culture how to think about shame, be mindful of what God says to be true about it, not what sinful man says. In doing so be instructed like the man who fears the Lord. The friendship of the Lord is for those who fear him. Trust in God alone, he is our refuge and the only one who can remove our guilt and shame.

All the glory for being saved goes to God.

(Sunday Service) The Gospel of Glory Philippians 3:17-21: "Brothers, join in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk according to the example you have in us. For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, walk as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things....

Though believers are free from the law we are not free to sin. We are obedient to righteousness from the heart and wish to avoid re-enslavement to sin with its consequences of shame and death.

This sermon explores the theological concept of imputation as the divine remedy for the legal and practical consequences of original sin. It distinguishes between inherited corruption, which is addressed through regeneration and resurrection, and imputed guilt, which is resolved through the substitutionary atonement of Jesus Christ. The message explains that Adam's guilt is legally transferred to...

Jesus tells of a great supper whose invited guests put land, work, and home ahead of the host's call. Luke 14:15-24 exposes the danger of answering God's gracious invitation with ordinary excuses, even when those answers sound polite and reasonable. The prepared supper points us toward the generosity of grace, while the widening invitation reminds us that need and shame do not place a sinner beyon...

This sermon examines the pivotal question Jesus posed to His disciples regarding His identity, emphasizing that He is the Christ and the Son of God. The message highlights the necessity of a consistent, daily commitment to follow Christ, which involves denying oneself and taking up one's cross, a concept historically understood as a costly act of sacrifice rather than a mere spiritual symbol. It c...

Micah 1:5-13 (KJV) For the transgression of Jacob is all this, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? is it not Samaria? and what are the high places of Judah? are they not Jerusalem? 6 Therefore I will make Samaria as an heap of the field, and as plantings of a vineyard: and I will pour down the stones thereof into the valley, and I will discover the foundati...
