Philippians 3:7-11

In Hosea 11, God reveals Himself as a father who raised Israel from infancy, freed them from slavery, and led them with bonds of love—only to be met with relentless rejection. Yet where human fathers would say "good riddance," God declares, "I am God and not man." His compassion prevails. Through the lens of the Prodigal Son and Matthew's portrait of Jesus as the Second Son, we discover how Christ retraced Israel's steps to fulfill what the first son never could—and why the Father still runs to meet the repentant.

Where does the Christian find assurance? Not in heritage, good works, or religious performance — but in Christ alone. In this sermon from Philippians 3:1–6, we trace Paul's devastating critique of misplaced confidence and learn from the 18th-century Marrow Men who fought the same battle. If your joy is in something other than the Lord, your confidence will be too.

What does it take to be a truly effective Christian? Psalm 100 gives us seven practical habits drawn straight from the text: making a joyful noise, serving the Lord in all your work, coming before God in private communion, knowing Him deeply, gathering with His people, giving thanks, and blessing His name. These aren't complicated—but they require consistent, daily choices. In this sermon, we walk through each habit with practical counsel for building them into your life today.

Hosea 9 tells the tragic story of Israel's complete reversal. Every blessing God gave them is systematically stripped away. Their Exodus is undone as they return to captivity in Assyria. Their prophets are mocked, abused, and silenced. Their God-given mandate to be fruitful and multiply is overturned as they sacrifice their own children to Baal. And the covenant itself is reversed — Gilgal, once a place of remembrance, becomes a place of God's hatred. This chapter is a sober warning against apostasy and a call to guard the faith we have received.

Psalm 99 completes the trilogy begun in Psalms 96 and 98, connecting the Great Commission not only to salvation but to the lordship of Christ. The psalmist reveals that the theological center of the universe is the mercy seat—the footstool where heaven meets earth. Through three declarations of "Holy," we see that God's reign is universal, His justice is unwavering, and true worship requires a mediator. The flawed priesthoods of Moses, Aaron, and Samuel point forward to Christ, our great high priest, who tore the veil and opened the way for all people to worship at the footstool of God.

Did you know Acts 1:8 — "Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, to the ends of the earth" — isn't a new idea Jesus invented? It's the geographic blueprint of Psalm 98, written centuries before. In this message, we trace the gospel's movement from Israel to the nations to all creation, discover why God's "right hand and holy arm" is a title for Jesus, explore the Year of Jubilee and what the shofar announces, and ask a hard question: are you too quiet about the gospel? The judge is coming. Creation is waiting. The shofar has been blown. It's time to sing.
