  • 1 John 2:7-17 Its a Family Affair

    1 John 2:7-17 Its a Family Affair
    Jan 8 2026
    This sermon explores 1 John 2:7-17, emphasizing that true knowledge of God leads to deep abiding in Him and a natural desire to obey His commandments. The Apostle John presents both an "old" and "new" commandment—the timeless call to love one another, now fulfilled and exemplified in Jesus Christ. The sermon traces the Christian journey through three stages of spiritual growth (children, fathers, and young men), highlighting how forgiveness, deep knowledge of God, and victory over evil characterize progressive sanctification. Central to the message is the distinction between loving the world and loving God—Christians cannot serve both. The transformative power of Christ's love should make believers stand out in a world filled with conflict and hatred, as they become lights shining in dark places through acts of compassion and unity.

Yet through it all, believers are "more than conquerors" through Christ, sustained by the Trinity working in perfect harmony on our behalf.

  • No Condemnation

    No Condemnation
    Dec 2 2025
    This episode explores the transformative truth of Romans 8:1-11, emphasizing that believers in Christ are completely free from condemnation through Jesus' finished work on the cross.

The episode emphasizes that salvation is entirely God's work, not based on human effort, and that the Holy Spirit provides both the power to live righteously and the assurance of eternal life. Pastor Paul's own transformation from persecutor to apostle serves as a powerful example that no one is beyond God's grace. This episode concludes with the blessed hope of physical resurrection and the call to mature spiritually even as our mortal bodies decay.

  • Knowing Right but Doing Wrong

    Knowing Right but Doing Wrong
    Nov 11 2025
    We've all been there—knowing exactly what we should do, yet finding ourselves doing the opposite. Romans 7 takes us into the raw, vulnerable confession of Paul as he wrestles with this very struggle. This passage isn't just ancient theology; it's a mirror reflecting our daily battles. Paul uses the powerful analogy of marriage vows—'till death do us part'—to show how Christ's death freed us from the law's binding grip. We're no longer slaves to sin's rulebook, yet the tension remains real. The law itself isn't the problem; it's holy and good, revealing sin for what it truly is. Paul zeroes in on coveting—that internal sin that exposes our deepest desires—showing how prohibition often fuels desire. Here's the profound truth: knowledge alone doesn't change us. Self-determination fails. Even becoming a Christian doesn't make us immune to temptation. But here's the hope—Christ is our only source of victory. Like a swimmer fighting upstream, we face a constant current, but the power within us through the Holy Spirit is greater than any force against us. This passage reminds us we're not alone in this struggle, and our hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness.
