Sunday Sermons

In the five previous Sundays in which we have addressed this subject, “Our Biblical Worldview,” we have given our attention primarily to God’s initial work of creation and what it reveals about God and us, the people He created. And so, we have given a fair degree of our focus on the opening chapters of Genesis and had thought of moving elsewhere, but then realized that we should address in some d...

It is essential, especially in today’s culture, that we give attention and careful consideration to the institution of the family that God established at the beginning of biblical history. Marriage and family are the foundation to a stable and blessed society and a biblical worldview.

There are many issues and problems living in today’s world that the enemy of our souls would use to disrupt and divide the Lord’s churches. It is critically important that every sound, local church not be distracted or disrupted by relative minor matters in comparison to what the Lord has set before us as urgent and important. May our Lord be merciful and gracious to our churches as we purpose to...

It is in the record of God’s act of creation in Genesis that we see the elements and the nature of a biblical worldview. There we learn first and chiefly what God is like and how He relates to His creation, but we also see how his creation, particularly the pinnacle of His creation—mankind—is to regard and know Him and how He would have them relate to His creation and to one another as His creatur...

Today it is our intention to underscore that our God—the Triune God of the Bible—is indeed the Creator, and that we not only believe that our origin was due to His creative work, but that our ongoing existence is due to Him. As Paul proclaimed to the pagans in Athens, “God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth…And He has made from one blood every nation of...

The biblical worldview is the way that God has revealed in the Holy Scriptures that is true and right, the way of thinking and living that He has purposed and promised to bless. Now in the series we recently completed, which we called “The Unconverted ‘Believer,’” we assumed that the ones listening or reading the notes would be mostly professing Christians, even church attendees. But as we begin t...

Every one of us as a Christian, I suspect, struggles with a specific sin in our lives that persists regardless of the concern that we have felt, the efforts that we have exerted, and the prayers that we have offered to our Lord to deliver us. It is the common experience of most Christians to struggle with a troubling, besetting sin, of which they seem to be unable to subdue and defeat. We will giv...

Today we conclude our series “The Unconverted ‘Believer’” in which we have addressed the problem and prevalency of nominal Christianity in evangelicalism. We have examined this matter from many vantage points in our effort to expose and correct this significant spiritual problem. It has been our desire and intention that no one within the influence of this church’s ministry be uninformed or unmove...

The Holy Scriptures set forth the life of the Christian to be a supernatural endeavor that only those who are truly in Christ can attain and maintain. But in our efforts in making this known, it is an easy matter for a true Christian to doubt his salvation when he does not feel that his heart and actions have achieved the standard of new life that characterizes true Christians. This is particularl...
