    This sermon from Pastor J.D. Montieth chronicles the last events of Our Lord's life in the second of a three part teaching on Who Was Delivered For Our Offences: "Religion improperly lived is a contra­dictory thing. For though men are willing to break the greatest of God’s command­ments, yet because of some perverted sense of warped conscience, they will keep the smallest of rituals, thinking themselves still pure in God’s sight. Thus, these religious men were willing to seek, and ultimately accomplish the murder of an innocent Man by delivering Him to an unjust death, yet they did not want to de­file themselves by going into this Gentile judgement hall. As if murder would not defile the soul, but coming into contact with a pagan would. This is often the way of the hypocrite—concerned about exte­rior show, yet caring little for the heart’s inward corruption."

    This sermon from Pastor J.D. Montieth chronicles the last events of Our Lord's life in the first of a three part teaching on Who Was Delivered For Our Offences: "How many there are who though giv­en an opportunity of having their sins removed, still resist Jesus as their Lord. Who have a chance at gaining peace with God and an eternal life beyond this tem­poral life, but instead choose to remain in their sinful state. The great amount of this world’s population more than satisfied in their separation from God, and remark­ably also, the eternal spiritual life God of­fers to men. This, though, is not the Chris­tian position. As the Church is humbly willing to receive Christ’s death for their sin, and will then gladly and wholeheart­edly glorify God because of it.

     

    "To help us more deeply perceive Christ being delivered to the cross, and dying for our sin, let us study the journey of Christ whereby also by the hands of sinners Je­sus was delivered to die, for our sin."

  • Who May Dwell On Your Holy Hill
    Psalm 15:1-5, "Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? [2] He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart. [3] He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour. [4] In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the Lord. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not. [5] He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved."

    This sermon from Pastor J.D. Montieth explores Who May Dwell On Your Holy Hill: "Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? If a man has not asked this question of the Lord, he is not enlightened enough to have asked the most important question in his life. It was David’s question to the Lord, and it should be our question as well. Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? What kind of man then shall be worthy enough to be in Thy holy presence? It is Heaven, therefore, that those who have wisdom should seek, for an answer to this most important question. This is why it is fool­ish for men to either ask themselves, or other men the road to eternal life, sim­ply because without divine revelation, no man can have any proper sense of it at all. Heaven is God’s world and His mystical realm, and only a highly ignorant man would be so presumptuous to conclude that he by himself, knows anything con­cerning its entrance. See, it is only the Lord Who may enlighten a man’s heart as to how Heaven can be gained. The Lord revealing quite abundantly in scripture that His thoughts are not ours, and surely so when it comes to who will be found worthy to dwell on God’s holy hill (Isa. 55:8&9) For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways high­er than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. Because God’s thoughts are esteemedly higher than ours, should it not then teach us that we should reach for them, and not be so arrogant to pre­sume that we know anything of either God, or the world Jesus has called us into without divine instruction? God’s Word warning us, that whatever we think we know about anything, is far short of what we really ought to know, and this knowl­edge must include entrance into God’s heavenly Kingdom.

  • The Dangers of Conceit and Its Awful Consequences
    Isaiah 5:21, "Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!"
     
    This sermon from Pastor J.D. Montieth explores the The Dangers of Conceit and Its Awful Consequences: "There is no sin so common in man and detrimental to both his salva­tion and his improvement in life than conceit. How conceited a man or woman is, revealed by how much they will rely on God’s Word and God’s Spirit to lead them or not. Hence all who make deci­sions solely on their own, and see no real spiritual need for either God or others to help them, you can know are conceited beyond measure. Those therefore who are filled with conceit, will not hold a sin­cere fear of God, and secondly, will be­lieve that they can be successful in this life, without God." 

     

    "A man’s conceit can be so developed, that he will not even ask God the way to Heaven. Men therefore shall die, simply because their conceit was too great to al­low them to search for what it will take to live."

  • Life Was Manifested

    1 John 1:2 "(For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)"

    This sermon, Life Was Manifested, from Pastor J.D. Montieth teaches what he considers the most important topic he has preached on in his 40 years of ministry; instructing men on how fellowship with God and Jesus Christ can be found: 

    “1 John is a book of fellowship, instructing men on how fellowship with God and Jesus Christ can be found. As such, its initial verses focus on the Son of God and the eternal life of God that He manifested to men. It teaches us that the only way men can gain eternal life and enter into both present and eternal fellowship with God is through His Son. It is only through faith and then obedience to the Son of God that true fellowship with God can be gained.

    “For men to have fellowship with God, Jesus, God’s Son, must be revealed, believed in, relied on, and obeyed. The Father and Son are one, so none can rightfully claim fellowship with the Father who neglect the Son and His ministry to men. The true Gospel of God has as its center fellowship with the Son of God. Thus, the apostle opens his writing with a focus on He Whom God sent to reveal His own eternal life to men.”

  • Ye Are Not Your Own

    1 Corinthians 6:19-20, "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s."

  • Eyewitnesses of His Majesty

    2 Peter 1:16-18, “For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty. For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount."

    This sermon from Pastor J.D. Montieth reveals the magnificent glory of Christ shown throughout Scripture; from the Gospels, to the Book of Daniel and to the Book of Revelation in Eyewitnesses of His Majesty: "It is important for us to both under­stand and believe, that neither the message of Christ, nor His person are part of a cleverly devised fable. Rather, that Christianity as we know it today is based upon the personal and eyewitness accounts of those who themselves saw not only Christ in His resurrected body, but also the glory that shall be Christ’s at His return. This glory was first seen by Peter, James and John, on the mount of transfiguration.

    "Everything about the glory of Christ, from the glory of His head to the white brass-like finish of His feet, shows us the great Creature that is Christ. John sees Jesus in His heavenly glory, beautiful, brilliant, and full of the glory of God.

    "One cannot come into contact with God’s holy presence and not be taken aback, so much so that even time seems to stand still. Revelations from God will always greatly humble the heart so that we internally feel unworthy of being in the Lord’s presence. Any true sight of the Son of God, therefore, will not puff a man up like just knowledge can, but will send him to his knees and to his face. God’s glory has a great effect on a man’s inward soul, and even on his physical body. The true glory of the Lord is well beyond man’s physical limitations to see Him and to live. Hence, though this was a vision given to the apostle John of Christ’s glory, he still fell before the Lord as one dead. This shall also be the same result in us if ever, by God’s grace, we are allowed to see the great glory that is the Son of God’s."
