Sunday Morning At Remnant by Grace

Pastor Jeff teaches from 1 Corinthians 15:50–58 that flesh and blood cannot inherit God’s eternal kingdom and that both the dead and the living in Christ will be instantly transformed into imperishable, glorified bodies at Christ’s coming. He explains this revealed mystery as the rapture of the Church, marked by the last trumpet, which he describes as a military call of return signaling believers...

Pastor Jeff teaches that the true story of Christmas is the historical and prophetic fulfillment of God’s redemptive plan through the birth of Jesus Christ. Walking through Luke and Matthew, he explains how Jesus’ virgin birth, divine identity, and legal descent from David fulfill Old Testament messianic promises, revealing Him as God with us, the rightful King, Priest, and Savior. Born humbly and...

Pastor Jeff teaches from 1 Corinthians 15:35-49 that the resurrection is not only real but essential to Christian hope, explaining that our future resurrection bodies will be transformed, glorified, and imperishable not merely reanimated versions of our current flesh. Using Paul’s seed analogy, he shows that just as a seed dies and is raised into something greater yet still connected, our mortal b...

Today Pastor Jeff is in 1 Corinthians 15:20-34. In it, Paul teaches us that Christ’s resurrection is the first fruits, guaranteeing the future resurrection of all who belong to Him, just as Adam’s fall brought death to all who share his nature. He outlines the order of resurrection. Christ first, then believers at His coming in stages (the Church, Tribulation saints, Old Testament saints), and fin...

Today, Pastor Jeff focuses on 1 Corinthians 15, where Paul confronts members of the Corinthian church who doubted the bodily resurrection. Paul reminds them of the essential gospel: Christ died for sins, was buried, rose on the third day, and appeared to many witnesses. He explains that denying the resurrection undermines the entire faith. If Christ is not raised, preaching is pointless, faith is...

Today, Pastor Jeff explains Paul’s instructions for orderly church gatherings, especially regarding tongues (foreign languages), interpretation, and prophecy. He emphasizes that tongues in Corinth referred to the native or foreign languages needing interpretation so the church could be built up, and that prophecy in the New Testament is not the authoritative, inerrant office of Old Testament proph...

Pastor Jeff teaches that when Paul speaks about “tongues” in 1 Corinthians 12-14, he maybe referring to real human languages rather than ecstatic utterances, and that his central concern is the building up of the church. Because Corinth was a multilingual community, people were praying, reading Scripture, or speaking in languages the rest of the congregation could not understand, which created con...

Pastor Jeff explains that interpreting Scripture requires separating timeless truths from personal assumptions. A word study shows the Greek glōssa always means a real human language or the physical tongue, never ecstatic sounds. Through most of church history, tongues were understood as real languages, with the modern idea of “glossolalia” (unknown or heavenly tongues) only appearing in the 1700s...

Pastor Jeff frames the discussion by acknowledging that Christians today still debate whether certain gifts like tongues and prophecy are active (the continuationist view) or ceased after the apostolic age (the cessationist view). Paul’s original concern, however, was to correct misunderstandings in the Corinthian church about the nature and purpose of spiritual gifts, contrasting them with pagan...

1 Corinthians 12:20–31 Paul compares the church to the human body, emphasizing unity, interdependence, and the equal value of all members. Every believer has a unique spiritual gift meant to serve the body, and all are indispensable regardless of visibility or perceived importance.

This sermon on 1 Corinthians 12 explains how the Holy Spirit gives every believer unique spiritual gifts, not for personal pride, but for the common good of the church. Each gift, whether wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discernment, tongues, or interpretation, comes from the same Spirit, showing unity in diversity. God's sovereignly distributes these gifts “as He wills,” and...

This sermon from 1 Corinthians 12 focuses on the variety and purpose of spiritual gifts in the church. Pastor Jeff explains that while there are many kinds of gifts, services, and activities, they all come from one God; the Holy Spirit, the Son, and the Father working together in unity. Each believer receives at least one spiritual gift, not for personal gain, but for the common good of the body o...

Paul’s teaching on spiritual gifts their origin, purpose, and how to discern what truly comes from God. Pastor Jeff explains that the Corinthian church, influenced by its pagan background, struggled to tell the difference between genuine works of the Holy Spirit and counterfeit spiritual experiences that resembled their former idol worship. Paul begins by reminding them that all spiritual gifts co...
