#1,181: God's Love is Better 5:20

1h ago5:20

5:20

I imagine David, hiding in the back of a cave, writing by candlelight. He’s thinking about days gone by. He remembers times when he was worshipping with God’s people. He’s longing for the house of God. He’s remembering the blessing of experiencing the presence and power of God and he comes to a revelation: the love of God is better than life itself…

12h ago1:03:00

1:03:00

John’s story is one of transformation, self-awareness, and the pursuit of authenticity. Once caught in the cycle of binge drinking and substance-fuelled nights, he reached a turning point—a moment of realisation at five in the morning, surrounded by people and a lifestyle he no longer resonated with. Though he never identified as an alcoholic, John…

#1,180: God's Abundance 5:16

2d ago5:16

5:16

When we think about God’s resources and His ability to provide for us, we must see the abundance of His provision. There is no limit to God’s resources. Just as we can’t calculate the volume of the ocean, we can’t determine the extent of God’s ability to provide. Main Points: 1. His power is endless. His resources will never be used up. God will ne…

#1,179: A Song at Midnight 5:42

3d ago5:42

5:42

In the night hours, when you can’t sleep, instead of dwelling on problems, uncertainties, and anxieties, turn your mind back to a song. A song of worship and a song of praise. If you are married, you might not want to sing aloud and wake your spouse, but in your heart, you rehearse the words of praise to God. Main Points: 1. It’s at night, in the q…

Open and Closed Communion: Kinghorn & Concluding Remarks | Particular Pilgrims 10:59

3d ago10:59

10:59

We continue with our survey of the open and closed communion debate. In 1816, the year following Robert Hall Jr.’s “Terms of communion” came out, Joseph Kinghorn answered Hall with “Baptism, A Term of Communion at the Lord’s Supper”. Kinghorn was the pastor of Norwich Baptist Church and a former pupil of Hall’s at the Bristol Baptist Academy. For m…

#1,178: Our Search for Contentment 5:43

4d ago5:43

5:43

No matter what we have, we want more. I think you would agree, contentment is hard to find. Have you ever said, “I’ll be happy when… I’ll be content when…” Contentment is elusive. The more we have the more we want. We have an idea that when we arrive at a certain place, we’ll finally be content, only to arrive and still want more. Main Points: 1. T…

#1,177: Don't Put Off God's Calling On Your Life 5:42

5d ago5:42

5:42

Here’s what I want you to think about today: Whatever you are going to do for God, you need to do it now. What is it that God has put on your heart to do? What burden are you carrying? What calling do you have on your life? Have you been saying, “Someday I want to serve God in a particular way? Someday I want to do this for God.” Hear this word. So…

#1,176: Where Wisdom is Found 5:27

6d ago5:27

5:27

Out of His abundance, God will supply what we are lacking, if we ask. It’s important to see that God doesn’t just bestow wisdom upon us automatically. Not every walking around today is living in the wisdom of God. Main Points: 1. It is this deep awe, reverence, and respect for God and His Word that leads us to pay attention to His Word. We begin to…

#1,175: Jesus Prayed for You 5:28

9d ago5:28

5:28

Remember, this unity is only found in Christ. Unity is the oneness or harmony of believers in Jesus Christ. It is our relationship with Christ that unites us with each other. We are united in essential doctrine, mission and purpose, and love for one another. Main Points: 1. Jesus prayed for the unity of His disciples. He knew if they would work tog…

#1,174: Are God's Blessings Conditional? 5:21

10d ago5:21

5:21

There are many times the Bible informs us of conditional blessings. These are places in Scripture where God says, “If you will, then I will.” We need to pay attention to the conditional blessings listed in Scripture because there are quite a few of them. Main Points: 1. Sometimes, as a Father I bless my children simply because I love them. I do thi…

Open and Closed Communion: Booth & Hall Jr. | Particular Pilgrims 10:01

10d ago10:01

10:01

An open communion answer to Booth finally came in the formidable writing of Robert Hall Jr. In the early 1800s he was perhaps the greatest orator in England, possessed a genius mind, and liked to practice radical politics. In 1815 he produced “Terms of Communion”, a direct challenge to Booth’s Apology. For more information about CBTS, visit CBTSemi…

#1,173: Jesus Must be First in our Lives 5:28

11d ago5:28

5:28

To love God first is to put him first in our affection, attention, and priority. If anyone or anything comes before God, it becomes an idol. We can even make ministry for him more important than a relationship with him. This too is idolatry. Main Points: 1. Our motive for putting Jesus first in our lives cannot be the desire for blessings alone. Th…

The Battle for Conscience: What's at Stake in Kentucky? w/ Greg Chafuen 30:06

11d ago30:06

30:06

What would you do if you were told by your boss to use gender-preferred pronouns in the work place forcing you to violate your conscience, and if you refused to do so, you would lose your job? Or what would you do if you were a pro-life nurse and were forced to give abortion-inducing drugs to a patient? These issues aren’t theoretical, but are issu…

#1,172: Why we Must Share the Gospel with Others 5:46

13d ago5:46

5:46

So, what motivates us to speak up, while the culture is trying to silence our voice? What enables us to push past our fear of offending someone to let them know what Jesus has done for us? There is only one answer: it is our love for Jesus. We speak up because we love Jesus. Main Points: 1. It’s as simple as this: If we love Jesus, we will obey his…

#1,170: Take Up Your Cross 5:39

18d ago5:39

5:39

The call to discipleship is a call to deny ourselves. We take up our cross as we die to earthly sin, values, and lifestyle. It is to wholeheartedly embrace the life of Christ. It is a life of surrender to Christ and an abandonment to things of this world. To take up the cross means to identify with Christ in His rejection, shame, suffering, and dea…

#1,169: Citizens of Heaven 5:24

19d ago5:24

Citizens not only have rights and privileges, but they also have responsibilities. The same is true for us as citizens of Heaven. Let’s not only experience the blessings of our new citizenship but let’s conduct ourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel. Main Points: 1.

#1,168: Revive Your Prayer Life 5:40

20d ago5:40

5:40

I talk to a lot of Christians who are unsatisfied with their prayer life. They even feel guilty, knowing prayer should be a more consistent part of their Christian life. But sometimes, it feels difficult to get going again. It seems hard to restart your prayer life. Here are some things that will help. Main Points: 1. First, ask God to give you a r…

#1,167: Taking a Stand for Christ 5:16

21d ago5:16

5:16

Every day, you make decisions about whether you will stand for Christ or not. In how we live our lives, the choices we make, the attitudes we portray, and the words we say, we are telling others that we stand for Christ, or we are communicating that we do not stand with him. Main Points: 1. Jesus knew we would face a strong temptation to hide our l…
