This sermon examines the doctrine of the Trinity through specific passages in the book of Isaiah, identifying the distinct roles and relationships of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The analysis begins with Isaiah 42, where the Father is presented as the commissioner who delights in the Son, the Servant, who is empowered by the Holy Spirit to bring gentle justice to the Gentiles. The teaching continues with Isaiah 48, exploring the debate over whether the Father or the Son is the speaker, while emphasizing the unity of the divine persons in the sending of the Messiah. Finally, the sermon introduces Isaiah 61 alongside Luke 4, highlighting the anointing of Christ by the Spirit to preach good tidings and bind up the brokenhearted. Throughout the discussion, the preacher emphasizes that the three persons of the Trinity are united in purpose and authority, rather than operating in a hierarchy of subordination, providing a cohesive Old Testament foundation for understanding the triune nature of God.

This sermon examines the third petition of Christ's high priestly prayer, focusing on the unity of believers as described in John 17. The central argument posits that Christian unity is grounded in three shared realities: a common gospel, a common glory, and a common goal. The common gospel refers to the apostolic message that unites Jews and Gentiles into one body, while the common glory is identified as the indwelling Holy Spirit who conforms believers to the image of Christ. The sermon distinguishes between the invisible, positional unity of the church and the visible, practical unity that must be actively maintained through humility and love. Ultimately, this visible unity serves as a witness to the world, demonstrating the Father's love for His people and convincing unbelievers that Jesus is the Messiah sent by God.

The World's love is like "hollywood love", fleshly, temporal, fake, counterfeit, unrealistic, unholy, unheavenly, ungodly, and it ends! God's Love, by contrast, is radically opposite; it is endless Eternal Spiritual Love. It is Love Personified; Jesus Christ. Thus, Christ's Love, is Heavenly, Truth, Pure, Realistic, Holy, Spiritual, and 100% LOVE! In The Crown-piece of Scripture, The Song of Solomon, graphically illustrates this radical contrast of these two different kinds of loves!

This sermon examines the biblical concept of the human heart, contrasting its natural deceitfulness with the necessity of surrendering it to God. The central message, drawn from Proverbs 23:26, urges believers to offer their hearts to the Lord so that their eyes may observe His ways. The speaker outlines specific negative heart conditions, such as a deceitful heart and a despising heart, and presents corresponding spiritual remedies, including diligence and devotion. Through examples like David's worship and Nabal's stinginess, the text illustrates how a surrendered heart leads to a life of boldness, generosity, and alignment with God's will. The tone is instructional and pastoral, emphasizing that while the heart is desperately wicked, it can be tamed and directed by the Holy Spirit when kept with all diligence.

This sermon examines the plagues of hail, locusts, and darkness in Exodus as a call to self-examination and genuine repentance. The central message contrasts Pharaoh's repeated hardening of his heart with the mercy God extends to those who seek shelter in Jesus Christ. It emphasizes that true faith requires a change of action, not just verbal confession, and warns against the spiritual blindness that rejects God's light. The preacher urges the audience to intercede for the lost and to ensure their children are grounded in Christian truth rather than worldly success. Ultimately, the message asserts that only Christ provides the final refuge from judgment, and believers must respond to His voice before it is too late.

True understanding of the Word of God is a supernatural thing. The fleshly mind does not comprehend the things of God, but only through the Holy Spirit. Here is a wonderful exhortation in how to approach the Holy Scriptures and how to grow thereby, both in understanding and in maturity. Give God the first fruits of the day when you are at your best, and seek to obey all you learn so that you may be entrusted with more from God.

Meet Christiana Faith Debate: Sunday, September 27th, 2026 (10/04/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) Does history warn against Christian avoidance of "Artificial Intelligence"? In other words, are saints today repeating the strategic error of early 20th-Century fundamentalism? In the 1920s–1940s significant sectors of Christianity responded to cultural/intellectual hostility by withdrawing from universities, media, & public institutions; a posture that ceded enormous cultural influence for generations. The result wasn't the preservation of orthodoxy so much as the marginalization of orthodox Christianity from the formation of cultural institutions. Figures such as J Gresham Machen fought against this withdrawal, arguing that Christians must engage & reform institutions, rather than abandon them. The Faith Debate wondered if Christian avoidance of AI is the beginning of another decades-long strategic retreat that future generations will lament, asking if separation from culture has ever produced a more Christian culture. Can the church sanctify what it abandons? You're encouraged to go listen to these shows. In the meantime, this episode is part 2 of a 4-part conversation on the subject of spiritual visions/apparitions.

This sermon explores the biblical principles of marital submission and mutual honor found in 1 Peter 3, emphasizing the 'hidden person of the heart' as a source of spiritual influence. The teaching uses the examples of Sarah, Hannah, and Ruth to illustrate how a wife's gentle and quiet spirit can serve as a powerful testimony, even to an unbelieving husband. It addresses the challenge of suffering while doing what is right, encouraging believers to view such trials as godly suffering rather than a cause for fear. The message concludes by directing husbands to live with their wives in understanding and honor, recognizing them as fellow heirs of the grace of life, thereby ensuring that their prayers are not hindered.
