"Testimonies of Expository Preaching" This unique sermon time defines expository preaching as the faithful explanation of Scripture's original intent. This contrasts with topical or anecdotal messages prioritizing the preacher's ideas over the text! Using Nehemiah 8 as a foundational example, the message outlines a 'preaching ladder' presented at a MacArthur Center for Expository Preaching workshop, moving from personal preparation and textual analysis to the application of eternal truths for the modern believer. Two church members also share testimonies of how this method transformed their understanding of Titus, demonstrating that rigorous study reveals the structure and purpose of God's Word. This time emphasizes that this approach is biblical, instructive, and Christ-exalting, ensuring that the congregation hears from Christ rather than the preacher. Ultimately, the goal is to equip believers to understand and apply Scripture independently themselves, fostering a church community that is grounded in sound doctrine and personal engagement with the Bible. -Livestream: https://lwbcfruita.org/live -Donations: https://www.lwbcfruita.org/give

When God's Soldiers Forget Who the Enemy Is!. WE'VE GOT THE ARMOUR—BUT WE'RE FIGHTING EACH OTHER! Eph. 6:10–18 KJV My message tells the story of Christians who have studied God's Word, learned about spiritual warfare, and put on the appearance of soldiers—but have forgotten how to love and protect one another. Christians who know their Bibles and can identify every piece of spiritual Armour. Yet a brother has been neglected for years, and a sister sits in church silently carrying her fears. The enemy doesn't have to defeat a church from the outside but insideGod did not give His church spiritual Armour so Christians could destroy one another. He gave us Armour to withstand the devil, stand firm in the faith, and serve together under Jesus Christ.God has provided His people with the whole Armour of God, but what happens when Christians begin fighting one another instead of standing together against the real enemy?This message challenges believers to examine their hearts, restore broken fellowship, encourage the wounded, and remember that our ultimate spiritual battle is not against flesh and blood.Don't leave your brother on the battlefield. Your brother is not your ultimate enemy. Your sister is not your ultimate enemy. The devil is your enemy, and Jesus Christ is your victory!There was a day when every one of us who has been saved was helpless in sin. We could not save ourselves.But Jesus came to rescue us.Above all, it points listeners to Jesus Christ, whose death, burial, and resurrection provide the only way of salvation.Put on the whole Armour of God. Stand firm in His truth. Lift up the wounded. Forgive one another. And stand together for the glory of Jesus Christ!

Is expositional preaching the biblical standard for teaching God's Word? This sermon examines historical and New Testament examples, including Ezra, Jesus, and Paul, to demonstrate that true preaching involves reading, explaining, and applying scripture in context to reveal Christ. The message continues the theme from our AM sermon, contrasting this method with superficial inspirational talks, emphasizing that preachers must be diligent workmen who accurately handle the word of truth. It calls the congregation to value this rigorous approach, which leads to spiritual conviction, understanding, and a deep reliance on the gospel for salvation and daily living.

What is Sharia and what does it teach us, particularly about the dominance of men? How does it treat apostasy? Under Sharia, how are Muslims to treat Christians and Jews? Is Sharia something that is separate from Islamic governance or intrinsically tied to it? Joining Crosstalk with a loving response to these and other related questions was Shahram Hadian. Shahram is the founder of Truth in Love Ministry. He's a Christian Pastor and a former Muslim. Shahram was born in Iran and came to America in 1978 to escape an oppressive Islamic regime and committed his life to Jesus Christ in 1999. He has an extensive background not only as a Pastor, but also as a former police officer, teacher, coach, and servant leader in his community. More Information: tilministry.com

This chapel concludes a year-long study on the Beatitudes by emphasizing the absolute authority of Scripture over personal opinion or situational ethics. It identifies five essential spiritual qualities—genuine humility, denial of self, a forgiving spirit, a clear conscience, and pure motives—as the foundational gears of a healthy Christian life. The message warns that deficiencies in these areas lead to spiritual apathy, insensitivity, and fear, ultimately hindering one's ability to witness and endure for righteousness. Listeners are challenged to examine their lives against God's standard of perfection, acknowledging that true growth requires repentance and a commitment to aligning personal experience with biblical truth rather than twisting Scripture to fit cultural norms. The sermon closes by defining sound doctrine as teaching that is based on Christ's words and leads to a Christ-like life.
