The text highlights the theological framework of dispensationalism,...

In Mark 8:34–38, Jesus teaches that true discipleship requires denying ourselves, taking up our cross, and continually following Him, surrendering our claim to rule our own lives and acknowledging that Christ alone belongs on the throne. Discipleship is not self-improvement or vague spirituality, but wholehearted allegiance to the historical Jesus revealed in Scripture and to the gospel of His per...

The sermon examines the parable of the true vine in John 15, distinguishing between two types of branches: those who abide in Christ and bear fruit, and those who are unfruitful and ultimately cast away. It defines abiding as a permanent, living connection to Christ through faith, which results in spiritual fruitfulness and the glory of God. The message clarifies that while salvation is secure for...

Theme: Because we are united with Christ, believers must not let guilt take hold of them. In this passage, we see that our union with Christ frees us from the guilt of sin and grants total victory over all opposing powers. God has cancelled the legal record of debt against believers by nailing it to the cross, where Christ satisfied divine justice and took the penalty for sin. This act of redempti...

Three simple words—"Your kingdom come"—open before us the breadth of God's redemptive purpose. In this petition, Christ teaches us to pray for the advance of the gospel, for the gracious rule of the King to be seen increasingly in His people, and for the day when every enemy is finally defeated and the kingdom is revealed in glory. But these words also turn inward. If Christ is truly our King, the...

Php 4:15 Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only. Php 4:16 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity. Php 4:17 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account. Php 4:18 But I have all, and abound: I am full...

This passage teaches the church to welcome one another with charity where Scripture leaves room for conscience. We belong to the Lord in life and in death, so we must not judge one another over disputable matters. Christ alone is Lord and Judge. Therefore, we should pursue peace, and avoid placing stumbling blocks before others, as we strive to live our lives to the glory of God.

This sermon examines 1 Corinthians 5 to argue that church discipline is a vital expression of love, necessary for the salvation of the sinner, the purity of the church, and the glory of God. The preacher contrasts the modern church growth movement with the biblical mandate to remove unrepentant sin, emphasizing that the church must mourn sin rather than tolerate it. By using the metaphor of leaven...

The sermon explores the doctrine of the perseverance of the saints, asserting that God who begins a good work in the elect will complete it until the day of Christ. It distinguishes between the instantaneous act of regeneration and the ongoing process of sanctification, emphasizing that the spiritually dead cannot respond to the gospel without the Holy Spirit's intervention. The preacher illustrat...

Pastor Robert Rohlin continues the Be Joyful series in Philippians 2:6-11, one of the greatest passages on Christ in all of Scripture, which Paul wrote to heal a quarrel between two women in the church at Philippi. He traces four steps: Christ's deity, His descent, His death, and His dominion. Down, down, down, and then up above all. Along the way come a monkey that will not let go of the bait in...

We should always be humble and give all the praise and glory to the Lord.
