Denominations on SermonAudio

When the Lord Jesus Christ says "in me" (John 15:6), does He mean a man who believes, or a man only hanging on the outside? Read "At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me" (John 14:20), and ask who the "ye" are. Then ask how a man falls from an apostleship he never had, when Peter says "Judas by transgression fell" (Acts 1:25). "If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a...

What does God say to the wicked man who would "take my covenant in thy mouth" (Psalm 50:16)? Read verse 17 and ask what that man has done with the words of God, and whether a man can hate the Word of God and still enter heaven. Then read John 1:14 and ask Who the Word is that he has cast behind him. "Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee." (Psalm 50:17)

Who can be saved? Believe it or not, you may get a different answer depending on what denomination you ask. So who can be saved and why do answers differ? Find out in this message.

Is this verse spoken to men who never believed, or to the eleven in the upper room, the branches the Lord Jesus Christ calls "in me" (John 15:2)? Read the first word of the verse, "If" (John 15:6), and ask whether a man can choose not to abide. Then ask what fire a man is cast into when "they are burned" (John 15:6), and where else the Lord Jesus Christ speaks of "the fire that never shall be quen...

Who shall guard the guardians? By showing us how to treat elders who rule well, are accused, and are in sin, God demonstrates that he will guard the guardians: 1. By His Word. 2. By His Spirit. 3. By His judgments. A. Hide the Word in your heart, and seek to do it "by the book" B. Pray for your Elders/Session/Presbytery/Denomination C. Trust that if the Church doesn't get it right, Christ will wor...

In this message we take a look at the modern ecumenical movement in the evangelical churches.

When the mighty God calls the heavens and the earth, whom does He call them to witness against? Read verse 4 and ask whether He comes to judge the heathen or His own people. Then read 2 Thessalonians 1:8 and ask whether them "that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ" (2 Thessalonians 1:8) are men who never knew God. "He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may j...

The sermon centers on the theological distinction between salvation as a wage earned through religious works and salvation as a free gift received by faith in Jesus Christ. It argues that no human effort, moral standard, or religious system can atone for sin, as the wages of sin is death, but God provides justification freely through the redemption found in Christ. The message emphasizes that the...

The speaker stands in the newly renovated boiler room in the basement of the ministry's building in Midtown Manhattan, marveling at God's provision. A couple of years earlier the leaking, rusting boiler needed replacement, but without the funds the ministry limped it through a winter season while trusting the Lord to provide. The Lord has now fully paid for a brand new boiler, its installation, an...

When the Lord Jesus Christ says "Abide in me" (John 15:4), who is He, and where does a man go to abide in Him? Read how the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision and spoke to him in the first person (Genesis 15:1), and then read what His name is called when He comes again (Revelation 19:13). Then ask whether a man can abide in Him and not abide in His word. "Then said Jesus to those Jews wh...

Does the grave keep any power over the soul of the man who dies in the Lord? Read verse 15 and ask whether God redeems the psalmist from the grave or from "the power of the grave" (Psalm 49:15). Then ask how He does it, and read Revelation 6:9 to see where the souls of the slain are found. "But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me." (Psalm 49:15)

This sermon examines the opening verses of 1 Corinthians, highlighting the source of apostolic authority in Jesus Christ rather than human credentials. It emphasises the theological reality of the local church, describing believers as sanctified and called to be saints through the atoning work of Christ, which reorients the Christian life from striving for holiness to living out a given new life....

Who takes away the branch that bears no fruit, and was that branch ever in Him? Read "every branch in me" (John 15:2) beside "He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him" (John 6:56), and ask whether "in me" ever describes a man who never believed. Then ask what a man must do to have God take away his part out of the book of life: write a new Bible, or only decide...

The sermon emphasizes that salvation is found exclusively in the name of Jesus Christ, rejecting the notion that it can be obtained through religious works, moral behavior, or denominational affiliation. Drawing from Acts 4, the message highlights three key declarations: God is the ultimate witness to Jesus' identity and work, Jesus holds the position of the chief cornerstone, and His purpose is t...

Meet Bereans in Action Faith Debate: Sunday, October 4th, 2026 (10/11/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) Should "Artificial Intelligence" be called Algorithm Processing? Do we know GPT means Generative Pre-trained Transformer; or are we "old man yelling at cloud" with "smart phones" making us dumb?

Why does the psalmist cry "Hear this, all ye people" (Psalm 49:1) and then "give ear" (Psalm 49:1) in the same breath, and who is the ye? Read verse 5 and ask whether it begins with wherefore or with therefore, and whether a man can say he will not fear the days of evil. Then ask what the rich man who trusts in his wealth can pay for his brother's soul. "None of them can by any means redeem his br...

1 Corinthians 1:12 "Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ." King James Version

This lesson examines the Corinthian church's divisions as a cautionary example for modern Christians who often identify with denominations or human leaders rather than solely with Christ. The lesson argues that while the human need for identity is natural, believers must reject man-made traditions and instead anchor their faith in the Word of God as their sole authority. By highlighting the crucif...

When the Lord Jesus Christ says "in me" (John 15:2-7) six times in seven verses, does He mean a believer, or a man who only looked like one? Read verse 6 and ask who gathers the withered branch, and where they take him. Then ask whether "the fire" (John 15:6) is some lesser burning, or the same fire the Lord Jesus Christ names in every gospel. "If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branc...

Two of biblical counseling's most influential leaders died within a year of each other (Adams and Powlison), and the movement has been fracturing ever since. In this series finale, Dr. Jared Poulton joins Jared and Dr. Alan Strange to bring the story into the present: the growing rift between "clinically informed" and "historic" biblical counseling, the theological debates over common grace and se...

This week on Wheat Among the Tares, we feature the second of the two-part series focusing on the Re Conquista (or Reformation) movement that is finding a foothold with a large group of young people today through the means of social media. Join guests Kevin Johnson and Brad Lindsey as we explore the question of when to separate from a denomination in an attempt to either "save" or either separate f...

The stones of the temple at Jerusalem were thrown down in 70 AD. The towers and bulwarks of Zion that God commands us to walk about and count are found now in the Word of God. The kings saw the city of God, "marvelled," and "hasted away" (Psalm 48:5). If we have not heard the Word of God, we cannot see. We do not even know what to look for. A Christian who prays for the salvation of his children i...

This lesson examines the divisions within the Corinthian church as described in 1 Corinthians, focusing on the specific contention where members aligned themselves with one leader to the exclusion of accepting truth from others. The central message warns against the carnality and pride that fuel such strife, emphasizing that true unity requires identifying with the Lord Jesus and His Word as the s...

God promised the Church. But he didn't promise a singular institution.
