Why as God's people should we long for...

The Canons of Dort The Fifth Head of Doctrine – The Perseverance of the Saints ARTICLE 10 – Assurance of salvation comes from faith in the promises of the Gospel, which are worked in us by the Word and the Spirit of God, and from a holy desire to preserve a good conscience and perform good works. This assurance, however, is not produced by any peculiar revelation contrary to or independent of the...

The sermon examines the final hours of Jesus' ministry, focusing on the prophetic warning of the disciples' imminent failure and the establishment of the New Covenant during the Last Supper. It highlights the contrast between the disciples' pride, particularly Peter's boastful loyalty, and the sobering reality of their impending denial and scattering. Despite this 'pile of debris,' the message ide...

The sermon explores the commission given to the twelve disciples in Luke 9, emphasizing their empowerment to heal and proclaim the kingdom of God. It highlights the necessity of total dependence on God rather than human resources, illustrated by Jesus' instruction to take nothing for the journey. The narrative of feeding the five thousand serves as a central example of how God increases faith thro...

JACOB'S STONE AT BETHEL. [When an Ordinary Stone Became a Memorial] Genesis 28:10–22 KJV What happens when an ordinary stone becomes a memorial of an extraordinary encounter with God? In this powerful lesson, we follow Jacob as he flees from home, faces an uncertain future, and spends a lonely night in the wilderness. With nothing but a stone for his pillow, Jacob discovers that God is present eve...

The sermon explores the theological concept that God uses affliction and tribulation to perfect a believer's faith, rather than to punish them. Drawing from James 1 and Psalm 119, the message argues that suffering serves as a necessary process to remove self-reliance and allow the Holy Spirit to fill the believer, resulting in patience and spiritual maturity. The preacher emphasizes that this divi...

"But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe." (Romans 3:21-22, NKJV)

This sermon explores the inevitability of opposition faced by Christians, rooted in the world's rejection of Jesus and its warped moral standards. It explains that believers are attacked because they represent God's truth and have been chosen out of the world, leading to a sense of distance and hostility in social and professional spheres. The message reframes this conflict as a spiritual courtroo...

This sermon examines the church of Thessalonica as a prototype for the Christian life, emphasizing that the gospel arrives not merely as words but with the sovereign power of the Holy Spirit. The central message highlights five fruits of this divine power: genuine conversion from idolatry, a virtuous life characterized by faith, love, and hope, a Christ-centered devotion, a God-centered trust, and...

James started off with a brief discussion of the current state of Mormonism and then went to callers. Call topics included the Litany of Loreto and Marian Devotion, John 1:12-13, and how to witness to LDS Missionaries. Dan Chapa called in asking about Acts 2:23. The program finished with a caller asking about academic LDS studies and if James has looked into them.

John chapter 1 verses 6-13. Believers must receive Jesus Christ as the true Light to obtain eternal life. The message presents three primary reasons for this necessity: the true Light was proclaimed by God's faithful witness, John the Baptist; He was identified through His incarnation and creative work; and He is authorized to grant the right to become children of God. The preacher emphasizes that...

What if the greatest threat to a spiritual awakening isn't secular hostility, but a manufactured fake? Between 1792 and 1838, America witnessed a dramatic tug-of-war for the soul of revival—shifting from the quiet, sovereign, and deeply doctrinal outpourings in New England towns like Somers and Canton to the high-pressure, emotionally charged "New Measures" of the western frontier and Charles Finn...

The sermon explores the pivotal moment in Acts 11 where the gospel expands from a Jewish context to the Gentile world, focusing on the dispersion of believers and the establishment of the church in Antioch. It examines the theological controversy surrounding the term 'Hellenists,' arguing that the context implies the initial evangelization of Gentiles rather than just Greek-speaking Jews. The teac...

Deuteronomy 19 sets out three bodies of law given to Israel for life in the land: the cities of refuge for the unintentional manslayer, the landmark boundary laws protecting inherited property, and the requirements for witnesses in legal proceedings.

This is the fourth of five messages in the 2026 Fall Bible Conference with Dr. Jim Orrick.

This sermon examines the testimony of Jesus in John 5, where He presents multiple witnesses to His divine identity, including John the Baptist, His miracles, the Father, and the Scriptures. The central argument posits that the rejection of Jesus by religious leaders is not due to a lack of evidence, but rather a deliberate unwillingness to submit to Him. The preacher contrasts the temporary joy of...

In this lecture, Jonathan Arnold teaches that the canon of Scripture consists of books inspired by God and providentially preserved, whose authority the church recognises rather than confers. The Protestant canon of sixty-six books reflects this principle, upheld through the early church and Reformation. Scripture's authority rests upon its Divine origin, internal harmony, spiritual power, and the...

In this lecture Jonathan Arnold teaches that the New Testament text must be approached in light of Scripture's Divine inspiration and providential preservation. The Received Text, rooted largely in the Byzantine manuscript tradition and used in Reformation translations, is presented as a faithful witness preserved through the church's continual use. Modern critical texts are challenged for priorit...
