Fork of The Broad/Sermons from Carlton Baptist Church

In this episode, Jesus exposes the hypocrisy and lack of mercy of the scribes, and challenges us to understand the difference between contribution and sacrifice. The text points us to the perfect portrait of mercy and sacrificial giving -Christ on the cross.

Jesus has answered a series of three questions for spies sent by the religious rulers, and left them in awe and amazed at His answers to their theological and ideological queries. They had hoped to confuse Him and provoke answers that would make the Jewish crowds that have latched onto Jesus hate Him, or even better, make the Romans want to kill Him. They have failed miserably in their efforts. No...

In today’s message, Jesus is confronted with questions by various religious leaders, hoping to catch Him either in some blasphemy so wicked that the people will reject Him, or in some statement so provocative it will push the Roman leaders to kill Him. Jesus is asked four questions-a question about His authority, a question about ownership, a question about eternity, and a question about His famil...

Jesus tell The Parable of the Tenants, and in doing so, challenges listeners to a point of decision. The text is convicting and filled with hope for those can admit their need for a Saviour.

Jesus rides into Jerusalem ona donkey’s back as a King; He weeps over the lost of Jerusalem as a prophet; and He offers an unbreakable, untarnished sacrifice as our Great High Priest.

In this episode, we look at Jesus’ “Parable of the Ten Minas”. Jesus is headed toward Jerusalem to be recognized as King through His death on the cross and resurrection from the dead, and He challenges the listeners to examine their own allegiances. Even if one finds themselves as a foe or a false follower of Jesus, though, there is hope for the living - “God shows His love for us in that while we...

Today’s text contains one of the most encouraging texts of Scripture “For the Son of Man came to seek and save the lost.” Jesus had a plan before time began to save people who are less than perfect-sinners like me, sinners like you. Listen and be encouraged!

King David’s sin is exposed, which leads him to confession, repentance, then joy, because he is assured that God is merciful. He experiences what Jonathan Edwards called “brokenhearted joy” - acknowledging he is sinful, rejoicing that God is a forgiving God.

Continuing our exposition of Psalm 103, we discover attributes of God-He is living, He is holy, and He is sovereign. All of these attributes call for the worship from all creation-The reason why we worship is because of who we worship-We worship God because He is God.

“He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities” - This a beautiful, cornerstone verse of Christianity – It paints a portrait of God’s mercy – He doesn’t give us the punishment that we deserve for our sins, He doesn’t give us the payment we deserve for our iniquities. Ephesians 2:4 says that God is rich in mercy. God shows how merciful He is by saving anyo...

The more we understand God’s intrinsic glory (The more we understand who God is and what He’s done for us), the more we will ascribe glory to God, the more we will worship, the more we will bless the Lord. Can I tell you, I believe with all my heart that the biggest problem in our world today is not that we have the wrong president or that we took prayer out of schools or illegal immigration or su...

David preaches the Gospel to himself, reminding himself that God is good, even in the midst of troubles in life.
