The sermon encourages believers to cultiva...

What is the mischief the mighty man boasts himself in, and is it the small, cute word men make of it today? Read verse 5 and ask what God destroys "for ever" (Psalm 52:5), and where all liars "shall have their part" (Revelation 21:8). Then ask why the man who trusts God is like a green olive tree, and in Whom he abides as a branch. "But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in...

The sermon explores the call to remain faithful to Christ regardless of cost, drawing from Paul's charge to Timothy in 1 Timothy 6.

This sermon explores the theological significance of the sin offering in Leviticus, distinguishing it from the burnt offering by focusing on the restoration of broken fellowship rather than the establishment of right relationship with God.

The sermon addresses the theological tension between the irreversible nature of justification and the ongoing necessity of confession, using Psalm 32 and Westminster Confession of Faith Chapter 11 as the primary framework. It argues that while believers are permanently justified by Christ's imputed righteousness and cannot lose their saved status, they continue to sin and must therefore regularly...

2 John 1:7 "For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist." King James Version

The son finally speaks his confession — but before he can ask to be a hired servant, the father interrupts. "Bring forth the best robe." This lesson unpacks the three gifts the father gives: a robe that restores identity, a ring that restores authority, and shoes that restore sonship. It is not partial or probationary acceptance. It is full restoration — and it shows how completely the Father rece...

The preacher contrasts the conditional safety of the ancient cities, where fugitives had to remain until the high priest died, with the eternal security believers find in Jesus, whose priesthoo...

1. What? 2. To Whom? 3. Why? This sermon examines 1 Peter 2:7, asserting that Jesus Christ is precious to those who believe in Him. The central argument distinguishes between the value of Christ as the cornerstone of the church and the experience of believers who recognize their own sinfulness and total dependence on His atoning work. Faith is presented not as a human effort but as a regenerating...

The grace of faith. This is where we begin, by grace; for by grace are ye saved… saving faith must be of grace or else we be not saved or delivered from our sins. This grace gift must come from the Father who alone can give it for every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning
