Baptist Expositor

Exposition of John's vision of Christ on Patmos. Revelation is the unveiling of Jesus Christ and in these verses, we are introduced to a glorious vision of the risen, glorified Christ. This vision sets the tone for the rest of what is to come and is the first of 3 great visions of Christ in the Book.

Exposition of John's greeting to the seven churches. His greeting contains a heart warming description of the believer's position in Christ as well as an announcement of the grand theme of the Book.

Introduction to a series in the Book of Revelation with exposition of the prologue (Vs. 1-3). This series will follow the normal, literal method of interpretation. It will therefore be expounded as a prophetic Book. The word 'prophecy' appears 7 times in Revelation (1:3; 11:6; 19:10; 22:7,10,18,19). Five of these specifically refer to Revelation as a Book of Prophecy.

Exposition of the Spirit's warning concerning end-times apostasy. In an age of increasing apostasy, believers are called to exercise biblical discernment by holding fast to sound doctrine and rejecting the deceptive teachings of false teachers. Paul reminds Timothy that the Holy Spirit has clearly warned that many will depart from the faith, following doctrines inspired by demons rather than the t...

Exposition of the 7th and arguably most important weapon in the Christian's armour is the weapon of "all prayer". Without prayer, the Christian soldier will be virtually powerless in the face of the Satanic forces of hell.

Exposition of the next three pieces of armour in the Christian's arsenal against the devil - the shield of faith, helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit.

In our last lesson, we considered the Apostle's exhortation to put on the whole armour of God in order that we might stand in the spiritual battle we find ourselves in. We were also introduced to the fearful enemy we face. The Apostle now proceeds to give us a piece-by-piece description of the armour we have been provided for the battle. God has given us 7 powerful weapons to use in spiritual warf...

In this expository sermon on Ephesians 6:10–13, the preacher reaches the climactic conclusion of Paul's epistle by examining the believer's spiritual warfare. Paul exhorts Christians to be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might, recognizing the reality of the unseen spiritual conflict against Satan and his hosts. The sermon explains the source of the believer's strength, the nature...

Having described how walking in wisdom under the control of the Spirit affects church and family life, the Apostle now describes how the believer is to conduct himself in the servant-master relationship. Very important lessons for the Christian in the workplace.

In this expository sermon on Ephesians 6:1–4, the preacher continues Paul's teaching on the Spirit-filled family by examining the relationship between parents and their children.

In this expository sermon on Ephesians 5:25–33, the preacher continues Paul's teaching on Harmony at My House by examining the role of the Spirit-filled husband. While the wife is called to submit to her husband, the husband bears the greater responsibility of loving his wife as Christ loved the church. The sermon expounds Christ's sacrificial, sanctifying, and selfless love as the perfect p...

In this expository sermon on Ephesians 5:22–24, the preacher begins Paul's teaching on the role of the Spirit-filled wife. Having shown that the Spirit-filled life produces harmony in God's house (Eph. 5:19–21), Paul now applies this truth to the Christian home. The sermon explains God's design for marriage by expounding the wife's voluntary submission to her own husband, the husband's...

In this expository sermon on Ephesians 5:19–21 (cf. Colossians 3:16), the preacher continues Paul's teaching on the Spirit-filled life by examining the remaining fruits of the Spirit's filling in God's house. Having previously considered the ministry of Spirit-filled singing, this message focuses on the believer's spirit of thanksgiving and mutual submission. Paul teaches that a Spirit-fille...

In this expository sermon on Ephesians 5:19–21, the preacher continues Paul's teaching on the Spirit-filled life. Having previously considered the command to "be filled with the Spirit," this message focuses on the fruit that flows from a Spirit-filled, Word-filled believer. Paul shows that the Spirit's filling produces harmony in God's house (Eph. 5:19–21), harmony at home (Eph. 5:22&...

Exposition of the command to be filled with the Holy Spirit.

In this expository sermon on Ephesians 5:15–18, the preacher expounds Paul's practical exhortations concerning the believer's Christian walk. In these verses, Paul calls believers to walk in wisdom. This involves being circumspect, redeeming the time, and being sober and Spirit-filled.

In this expository sermon on Ephesians 5:7–14, the preacher explains Paul's call for believers to walk in the light. This is also a practical outworking of the command to be "followers of God" (Vs. 1). The word 'light' appears 5 times in these verses. Light is a part of God's very character so it makes sense that as His children we would walk in the light.

Expository preaching of Ephesians 5:4-6. This is the 3rd time we encounter the word 'walk' in this practical section of Ephesians. In this section, the Apostle now issues a call for us to walk in love. This walk is connected with a life of strict separation from the sensual sins of the flesh.

This is the 3rd time we encounter the word 'walk' in this practical section of Ephesians. In this section the Apostle now issues a call for us to walk in love. As we will see, this is connected with a life of strict separation from the sensual sins of the flesh.

This section (Vs. 25-32): The Apostle Paul now practically applies the "put off" and "put on" principle he has just discussed (Vs. 22-24) to the everyday lives of the believers. Some wrongly conclude that the Christian life is all about doctrine/theory and fails to impact one's daily life. This couldn't be further from the truth! The truth of God's Word has a transforming effect on our entire live...

The Apostle Paul exhorts the believers concerning another major facet of their walk. In the first part of the chapter the exhortation was to "walk worthy" (Vs. 1). This second section really continues that general theme with a strong emphasis on the need to walk distinctly. We are called to a distinct and separated walk as God's people – a life that is different to the way we used to live. I...

Being saved and baptized is not the finish line—it's the beginning of the Christian life. This message explores God's call to grow in grace and in the knowledge of Jesus Christ, guarding against spiritual drift and false teaching. Discover practical, biblical steps for spiritual growth: reading and obeying God's Word, prayer, faithful church involvement, submission to biblical authority, and...

Christianity is not a religion. Religion can change outward behaviour, but only Christ can transform the heart. Through Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus, we learn that every person—no matter how moral or religious—must be born again to enter God's kingdom. The new birth is the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit, received not by works, baptism, or religious rituals, but by faith alo...

Expository preaching of Ephesians 4:7-16. The key theme in this section is unity (See Vs. 3 and 13). Paul now outlines the leadership/ministry gifts Christ has bestowed upon the church to help preserve this unity.
