Believers on SermonAudio

Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, **It is the Lord.** Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea. (John 21:7) *1/ When it was known "It is the Lord" in the Old Testament. 2/ When it was known "It is the Lord" in the New Testament. 3/ How it is known "It is the Lord" in gospel da...

John Wycliffe was, I think, really the man who publicly had the position, the learning, and the moral courage to begin to question the doctrine and practices of the Church of Rome way back in the late 1340s. He spoke the Bible's truth to show the Pope, the Cardinals, the Bishops, and the Monks, that very much of their theological system was wrong. And much of their worship and practice was God-dis...

By analyzing the parallels between Levi and the...

This sermon examines the nature of authentic apostolic ministry through the lens of 1 Thessalonians 2, emphasizing that the gospel's power lies in both its doctrinal substance and its relational delivery.

This sermon on John 3:1-16 expounds the necessity of sovereign regeneration. Nicodemus, a Pharisee and Sanhedrin member, approaches Jesus privately by night, acknowledging His divine signs yet treating Him as a mere teacher. Still spiritually blind, he cannot see the kingdom on his own terms. Jesus insists that unless one is born again of water and the Spirit (Ezekiel 36), he cannot enter God's ki...

John 13:21, 33, 38 21 "When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me." 33 "Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you." 38 "Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily...

By examin...

The message emphasizes that grace is not merely a static state but a dynamic force...

Drawing from both Romans 8 & 1 John 4, we explore how the Holy Spirit assures true believers of their spiritual adoption, points them to Christ, and grows faith, love, and joyful obedience.
