The sermon exhorts husbands to love their wives with a self-sacrificial, Christ-like standard that transcends mere provision. It contrasts this high calling with the destructive nature of bitterness, urging men to eliminate anger and sharp words from their interactions. Drawing heavily on 1 Corinthians 13, the speaker defines biblical love as patient, kind, humble, and free from envy or pride. The message challenges husbands to reject double standards and manipulative behaviors in favor of genuine servanthood and consistent encouragement. Ultimately, it calls for a lifelong commitment to spiritual maturity and unconditional affection within the marriage covenant.

We have been working our way through the book of 2 Samuel in our morning sermons. The focus of the section we are in now is the sin in David's home because of his sin. With chapter 13, we have seen the beginnings of these troubles, first with the rape of David's daughter Tamar by here half-brother Amnon, followed by the vigilante murder of Amnon by Absalom. Today, we take up chapter 14, we see David waffling and therefore easily manipulated.

The sermon challenges believers to view missions not as a distant endeavor but as an immediate, personal responsibility to be witnesses for Christ in all contexts. Drawing from Acts 1:8, the message emphasizes that every member of the church holds individual accountability within a collective command to share their personal testimony empowered by the Holy Spirit. It critiques the tendency to compartmentalize evangelism into separate categories of home and foreign missions, urging instead for an integrated approach that engages both neighbors and nations simultaneously. Listen along as Pastor Gable highlights that this witness is rooted in authority and ability provided by the Holy Spirit, driven by the imminent return of Jesus. Ultimately, the call is to move beyond financial support alone and commit actively to daily evangelism, ensuring a balanced and holistic engagement with the Great Commission.

In this evening message from Acts 10:34-48, Pastor Rockhill unfolds what is often called the Gentile Pentecost, the pivotal moment when the gospel and the gift of the Holy Spirit were poured out upon Cornelius and his household. His central burden is the sweeping truth that God shows no partiality, receiving from every nation all who fear Him and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ. Working through Peter's sermon in the home of Cornelius, Pastor Rockhill traces the key components of the gospel Peter proclaims: Jesus as the Word sent from God, His baptism and anointing by the Spirit, His ministry of healing and authority, His death upon the tree, His bodily resurrection witnessed by many, His appointment as Judge of the living and the dead, and the remission of sins promised through His name to all who believe. He roots this in the covenant promise to Abraham that through his seed all nations would be blessed. Pastor Rockhill highlights the outpouring of the Spirit and the sign of tongues as God's deliberate confirmation that Jew and Gentile share one Spirit, one faith, and one baptism, cautioning that this sign was not meant to be a repeated norm. He also notes that Peter required no circumcision or Old Testament ceremony, anticipating a great controversy in the early church. The application presses hard upon the congregation: since God shows no partiality, neither should His people. Pastor Rockhill challenges believers to look past nationality, culture, and status, welcoming into fellowship all who profess Christ and walk in His truth, that they might be one body to the glory of God alone.

Jesus crosses into the country of the Gerasenes and confronts a man enslaved by a legion of demons, a man whom no human power could restrain or restore. With sovereign authority, Christ delivers him, restores him to his right mind, and sends him home to tell what the Lord has done for him and how He has shown him mercy. Mark 5:1–20 reveals Jesus Christ as the mighty and merciful Savior who enters places of ruin, overcomes the powers of darkness, restores ruined sinners by His grace, and sends the redeemed to bear witness to His mercy. This passage confronts us with four great realities: the ruin of man under sin and Satan, the absolute authority of Jesus Christ, the danger of preferring our idols to the presence of Christ, and the calling of every redeemed sinner to testify to the mercy of God. There is no sinner beyond Christ's reach, no bondage stronger than His saving power, and no legion too great for the Son of God.

We are preparing to enter into the most sacred and holy truth of all scripture. We come closer and closer to the beating heart of the Gospel and find the One waiting there is glorious beyond all description! He is the One who has loved us, who has given Himself for us and who will one day return and take us home to be with Him forever!! He is not the cold vengeance-filled god born of Muhammed's imagination… He is not the feeble, vapid and effete godlett of American liberal "Christianity". He is not the demon-gods of the Hindu, nor the happy fat Buddha, but He is the God of the Bible. He ALONE is God and He ALONE is worthy to be praised!! The God who holds out the glory of the Gospel is YHWH, creator of Heaven and Earth... He is Jesus Christ, YHWH made flesh, the second person of the Eternal Godhead and He has entered the true Holiest Place, entered the very throne room of Heaven and paid the ransom for our sin! He has purchased us back with the price of His Own Blood!! The most perfect sacrifice and the absolute, total payment for sin!
