Denominations on SermonAudio

What does it mean to abide in the Lord Jesus Christ? Read verse 3 and ask what made the eleven clean, and then ask whether a man abides in Him while His words sit closed on the shelf. Ask, too, whether the Lord Jesus Christ tells a branch what fruit to produce, or only where it must stay. "Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more ca...

Have you ever met someone who had a strong opinion about a controversial topic? For instance, someone might believe in reincarnation, a woman's right to abortion for any reason, the need for reparations for descendants of American slaves, freedom of speech, the legitimacy of socialism/communism, the need for unity among Christian denominations, illegal immigration, the right to free healthcare, me...

What did Isaiah do when he saw the LORD "high and lifted up"? He cried out, "Woe is me! for I am undone." What did John do on Patmos, the same man who had leaned on His breast at supper and asked "Lord, who is it?" He "fell at his feet as dead." Ask what terrible means when it is said of God, and ask how a man will stand when the Lord Jesus Christ comes as the lion and not as the lamb. "For the LO...

When the Lord Jesus Christ speaks of "every branch in me that beareth not fruit", is He speaking of a believer, or of a man who only looked like one? Read the words "in me" all through the Gospel of John and ask whether they ever describe anyone but a man joined to Him by faith. Then ask what it is to abide, and whether a man who stops continuing in His Word still abides in Him. "Every branch in m...

2 John 7-9 — If Jesus Christ didn't really come in the flesh, the cross was theater. A phantom cannot bleed, and a phantom cannot die for your sins. This expository preaching message walks through 2 John 7-9, where the apostle John names the deceivers of his day — men who "confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh." John doesn't call this a difference of opinion or a denominational distin...

2:22 What should the dress code be at church? 5:01 What current city is the Babylon in Revelation? 9:51 Is the worthless shepherd in Zechariah 11 the antichrist? 11:53 What are your differences in theology from John MacArthur? 15:20 What is a Convergent Church denomination? 17:02 How do I remain calm when things are going wrong around me? 21:39 Do you believe in the 5 points of Calvinism? 24:43 Ha...

This week on Wheat Among the Tares, we begin a two-part series focusing on the ReConquista (or Reformation) movement that is finding a foothold with a large group of young people today through the means of social media. Join us with guests Kevin Johnson and Brad Lindsey as we delve into the details behind the spiritual motive(s) of this modern-day effort to reclaim mainline denominations from apos...

Is God one refuge a man runs to after everything else has failed him, or is He the refuge? Ask why the very first word of this Psalm is the name of God, and why a man waits for trouble before he runs there. Read the word "very" set in front of present help, and ask how present that is. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

The sermon draws a parallel between physical cancer and spiritual corruption, using the imagery of devouring worms in Joel 1 to illustrate how false doctrine and sin consume the soul. It argues that just as cancer begins with a single damaged cell that proliferates uncontrollably, spiritual decay starts with subtle errors that spread through churches and denominations. The message emphasizes that...

Study in the 1689 Second London Baptist Confession of Faith

Working in Romans 10, Gerry G. Register goes back first to Romans 6: how shall we that are dead to sin live any longer therein? Dead is past tense, an accomplished thing, and he that is dead is freed not only from sin's consequence but from its power. "The power of sin has no dominion over you any longer." There is the Spirit and there is the flesh, and no middle ground. The second half takes up t...

The historical origins of infant baptism were enforced through imperial edicts and its adoption by various denominations as a covenant sign or means of grace. Salvation though, is founded solely on personal faith in Christ rather than ritualistic acts or inherited religious status.

A disciple asks how the Lord Jesus Christ will show Himself to His own and not to the world. Read verse 21 and ask whether the answer is a vision, a feeling, or a Bible opened and kept. Ask why He gives the same commandment four times in one conversation, and what a man is telling God when he owns a Bible he does not read. He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: an...

The sermon argues that believers must accept those whom God accepts, warning against the human tendency to be judgmental based on secondary traditions rather than biblical truth. It distinguishes between God's eternal moral law and provisional ceremonial laws that have passed away in Christ, using Peter's vision in Acts to illustrate how cultural practices can obscure spiritual reality. The preach...

The sermon centers on the distinction between corruptible worldly pursuits and the incorruptible redemption found in the precious blood of Christ, as outlined in 1 Peter 1. It argues that salvation is not achieved through human traditions, denominational loyalty, or physical rituals, but solely through faith in the foreordained sacrifice of Jesus. The message contrasts the temporary nature of eart...

Is this Psalm a wedding song about a king and the bride brought to him, or is it something else entirely? Ask why she is commanded to forget her own people and her father's house before the king desires her at all. Then ask what wife was ever told to worship her husband. So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him.

The sermon emphasizes the unchanging truth of God's Word and contrasts empty religious rituals with genuine, heartfelt worship. Drawing from Micah and Mark, it asserts that God requires justice, mercy, and humility rather than mere external sacrifices or verbal professions. True Christianity is demonstrated through Christ-like character and actions that reflect inner faith to others. The message w...

A LOVE FOR OTHERS. LOVE IS ESSENTIAL — LOVE IS PRACTICAL — LOVE IS ETERNAL 1 Corinthians 13:1–13 KJV First Corinthians 13 teaches that Christian love is essential, practical, and eternal. Without charity, impressive words, knowledge, faith, giving, and sacrifice lose their spiritual value. Biblical love is not merely an emotion; it is patient, kind, humble, unselfish, forgiving, truthful, hopeful,...

The sermon outlines the historical development of church doctrine, emphasizing that the Holy Spirit progressively teaches believers to articulate truths found in Scripture. It argues that ultimate authority rests solely in the written Word rather than oral tradition or ecclesiastical hierarchy. The speaker traces key theological milestones, including the formation of the biblical canon, the deity...

The sermon explores the connection between spiritual revival and generous giving by examining the example of the Macedonian churches in 2 Corinthians 8. It highlights how deep poverty and affliction did not hinder their willingness to give, but rather demonstrated the profound grace of God working within them. The central argument emphasizes that true generosity begins with surrendering oneself en...

What is the Gospel—and why does it matter? In 1 Corinthians 15, Paul clearly defines the Gospel: Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; He was buried; and He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures. This message examines the Gospel, the powerful and prophesied resurrection of Jesus Christ, and the eyewitness testimony confirming that He truly rose from the dead. Without...

If the mansions in the Father's house are already standing, what is it the Lord Jesus Christ goes to prepare? Read verse 3 and ask whether the going and the preparing are two things or one, and where He was going within hours of speaking it. Thomas says he does not know the way, so ask whether the Lord Jesus Christ answers him with a route to walk or with Himself. Then read the ye in verses 13 and...

How does David call his own offspring Lord? The men who held the scriptures had no answer, and He Who asked it was standing in front of them. Read to verse 6 and ask who this king is — fairer than the children of men, a sword girded upon His thigh, riding prosperously. Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre.

The common denominator throughout this text is not Moses' ability. It is God's presence and God's power. Moses asked the wrong question. It was not a matter of "Who am I?" but rather "Who is God?".
