The sinner thinks God is like a human. They believes God will simply forget their sin. They assume God will forget it and not deal with it. But does God overlook sin? Is He not the solemn judge of the heavens and earth? The atheist outright rejects this God and their life is lived accordingly with no contradiction. The atheist believes there is no God and their actions mirror those beliefs. In this sermon on Psalm 50:1–23 titled "Dead Religion," Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones sets forth to express how there is a human worse than the atheist: they claim to believe in God yet lives their life as if there is no God. Exploring Psalm 50:1–23, Dr. Lloyd-Jones explains that this person believes that God is like themselves. They believe that God will not deal with sin and they ignore God's wrath. They deny God's judgement, assuming there is no hell. They minimize their own sin. This error is not simply doctrinal deficiency, but they have made a god in their own image. On the contrary, God wants people to know who He truly is. Listen as Dr. Lloyd-Jones calls the hearer to rightly know God and see His salvation so that Christians may live lives praising and glorifying His name.

Why does God allow trials in my life? Ecclesiastes 6:10–11:10 teaches believers how to live wisely in an uncertain, upside-down world. Trials can produce humility, wisdom, and spiritual growth, while prosperity should be enjoyed as God's gift. Because life is short and unpredictable, we should guard our character, accept correction, avoid foolish extremes, submit wisely to authority, and trust God when circumstances make no sense. Death reminds us to enjoy daily blessings, love our families, and work diligently. Wisdom is better than strength, yet success is never guaranteed. Therefore, believers today should act faithfully despite uncertainty, rejoice in God's gifts, and humbly worship and revere God for His greatness, goodness, and grace.

One of the Psalms was written specifically for the Sabbath. And, Isaiah is very specific about the practice of Sabbath worship in the Millennium, when Gentiles and Jews alike observe it.

The Bible uses the word "angel" in more than one sense and in our text the King James Bible capitalizes "Angel" because it is a reference to the pre-incarnate Jesus who is God the Son, second person of the Triune Godhead. Also Reference: Isaiah 9:6, Micah 5:2, Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, John 1:1-3, Colossians 1:16, Genesis 16:7 & 13, Colossians 1:15, John 14:3 & 6 https://bbfohio.com

The devotion critiques will-worship as a futile religious practice that prioritizes human traditions and outward rituals over genuine faith in Christ. It contrasts superficial self-denial with true humility, arguing that God desires sincere obedience rather than mere ceremonial observance. The text warns against the slippery slope of legalism, which binds consciences without offering spiritual freedom or righteousness. Emphasizing that belief in the Son is essential for pleasing God, the message highlights that external acts cannot substitute for internal trust in salvation. Ultimately, all actions must stem from a heart aligned with God's commands rather than human inventions.
