Baptists on SermonAudio

ABC Opening Revival | September 2nd, 2026| Tim Schmidt | When Revival is Present and When it is Not | I Thessalonians 1

The sermon argues that biblical forgiveness is conditional upon genuine repentance, rejecting the concept of unconditional forgiveness often promoted by secular culture. By examining Old and New Testament scriptures, the preacher demonstrates that God forgives only after sinners turn from their wicked ways, establishing a clear pattern for human relationships. The message emphasizes that true repentance involves a fundamental change of mind and lifestyle, leading to authentic reconciliation between offended parties. Using examples like Joseph and Christ, the text illustrates that while believers are called to love enemies through compassion, forgiveness itself requires the offender's admission of guilt. Ultimately, the central thesis asserts that no repentance results in no forgiveness, making this sequence essential for restoring broken relationships.

This sermon explores the revelation of God's wrath against human ungodliness and unrighteousness as detailed in Romans 1. The speaker emphasizes that humanity is without excuse because God's invisible attributes are clearly perceived through creation, yet people willfully suppress this truth. By examining passages from Ephesians and Matthew, the text illustrates that all humans are naturally children of wrath due to sin, but believers are saved by grace through Christ. The message contrasts the inevitable judgment for those who reject God with the mercy offered to the elect, highlighting that salvation is found only in Jesus. Ultimately, the sermon calls listeners to recognize their depraved state and appreciate the sovereign remedy provided by God's grace.
