Compassion on SermonAudio

In the introduction to his Gospel, Matthew presents Jesus Christ from Joseph's viewpoint. He gives his background in the genealogy from David to Abraham. The details of the birth are from Joseph's perspective, and as they are examined more closely, we discover some rich truths about Joseph himself and the plan of God through Jesus the Messiah, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

This sermon explores the doctrine of God's communicable attributes, specifically focusing on mercy and compassion as distinct yet interconnected aspects of His character. It defines mercy not as weakness or a mere feeling, but as the strength of God stooping to relieve the broken, grounded in the satisfaction of His justice through the cross. Using the parable of the prodigal son and various Old a...

This sermon explores the prophetic declaration in Jeremiah that the Messiah is the Lord our righteousness, emphasizing that human efforts and moral standards are insufficient for salvation due to the fallen nature of man. The speaker contrasts the broken moral compass of the natural person, who often pursues wickedness while believing it to be good, with the perfect, sinless life of Jesus Christ,...

The sermon examines the encounter between Jesus and a lawyer in Luke 10, highlighting the contrast between self-righteousness and genuine faith. It argues that eternal life is inherited solely through belief in Christ, not by keeping the law, as the lawyer's attempt to justify himself reveals his spiritual blindness. The narrative of the Good Samaritan is presented not merely as a lesson on who on...

Zacchaeus had wealth and a position, but he still needed the saviour who was passing through Jericho. Luke 19:1-10 shows his joyful reception of Jesus, the crowd's complaint, and his willingness to give to the poor and restore what was taken wrongly. This message considers our need for salvation, Christ's mercy toward sinners, and the good that should follow in a believer's daily life. Whatever ou...

This sermon examines the biblical practice of fasting through the lens of Isaiah 58, arguing that God rejects ritualistic self-denial performed with selfish motives or for the purpose of manipulation. The central message emphasizes that true fasting is defined not by the physical act of abstaining, but by the resulting transformation of the heart toward humility, justice, and compassion for the op...

The Bible contains a clear and solemn divide between the way of the world and the way of faith. Cain and Abel's hearts revealed two entirely different spiritual allegiances: Cain belonged to the wicked one, while Abel approached God in faith and lived righteously. Cain's religion produced pride, envy, hatred led to murder; Abel's faith led to humble worship and obedience. True Christianity is not...

The parable of the prodigal son in Luke 15 reveals the character of God as a loving and generous Father rather than a distant judge. The central message emphasizes that God experiences the loss of sinners deeply and rejoices immensely when they are restored, challenging listeners to view their relationship with Him through the lens of grace and acceptance. The younger son's rebellion and the fathe...

The sermon centers on the tension between divine grace and human responsibility, using the account of the woman caught in adultery as a primary illustration. It argues that while believers must extend compassion and avoid condemning the lost, they are simultaneously called to actively share the truth and bear a burden for the salvation of others. The speaker warns against the passive attitude of b...

This sermon examines the final chapter of James, focusing on the warning to the rich who have laid up earthly treasures and the call for believers to exercise patience in suffering. The message emphasizes that while material wealth rots and decays, the coming of the Lord is near, requiring steadfastness and trust in God's compassion, as illustrated by the examples of the prophets and Job. It furth...

Welcome back to the podcast. Today, we step into 17th-century England to explore the turbulent life and enduring legacy of John Flavel—an outlawed Puritan pastor who was forced to preach under cover of night, yet whose written works became a beacon of profound comfort and piercing spiritual clarity. From his rich practical allegories like Husbandry Spiritualized to his deeply searching classic The...

What happens when a society loses its moral compass? Judges 19 gives us one of the darkest pictures of moral and spiritual collapse in the Bible, repeatedly reminding us that "every man did that which was right in his own eyes." In this study, we examine the disturbing events of Judges 19 and consider how the moral confusion reflected in that passage can help us think carefully about challenges fa...

This sermon explores the social and spiritual obligations of the covenant people as outlined in Deuteronomy 15 through 17, emphasizing themes of compassion, remembrance, and justice.

The discuss...
