Great Sermon! Jesus Said:" lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen", and "Jesus Christ in you the hope of glory". He is ever present with us, dwelling in His people.
Thank you brother Clay for such an encouraging, strengthening, comforting message!
Great Gospel Sermon! Our fellowship began before the world was made in Jesus Christ. This sermon reminds me of (3) verses:
"And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ": (Eph 3:9)
"God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord". (1 Co 1:9)
"That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ". (1 Jo 1:3)
Great Gospel Sermon! Our brother Clay has preached a blessed message here. This reminds me of an article by our brother Don: the Lord God tells us four things about our dear Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, as his Servant. — These things were written by God’s prophet Isaiah more than 750 years before the incarnation of our Redeemer!
1. He will bring righteousness to the Gentiles (v. 1).
2. He will be a meek, voluntary Servant to the will of God (v. 2).
3. He will be a tender, compassionate Savior (v. 3).
4. He will effectually accomplish all his work (v. 4).
The Lord Jesus Christ is an appointed Savior, a qualified Savior, a willing Savoir, and an able, effectual, almighty Savior. — “He shall not fail!” That revelation is enough to flood our hearts with joy, praise, thanksgiving, and adoration. — What a great Savior our Savior is!
Great Gospel Sermon! Thank you, brother Clay. Another God glorifying comforting message for the sinner saved by grace. To this add a recent message by brother Evans: The Faith of the Righteous.
Great Sermon! "Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God"(2 Cor 2:12) God, by His Spirit, is the genesis, cause and sustainer of our assurance which is received through the faith, the common faith of all God's elect; the Spirit bearing witness with our spirit that we are the sons of Gpd and makes known to us the mystery of His will testified in 1 Timothy 1:9 and Ephesian 1:1-6. This truth can be read or preached yet, without the Spirit and the quickening of the sinner, no assurance of the promises can be believed in a natural man. "Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you"?
Great Sermon! GREAT message! GREAT series: Assurance of Faith, Assurance of Hope and Assurance of Understanding by brother Clay. It comforted me as well as enriched me in the grace and knowledge of who my Assurance is; it is a Person, the Lord Jesus Christ, and Colossians 1:27 declares that He wells in me. To believe that is to understand the Trinity or the new birth. It is impossible unless He perform the work for, in, upon and to the sinner, whom He invades with His Spirit in a vital union. Romans 8:38-39 the word persuaded (πείθω peíthō) is used which means believe, convinced, and confident by inward certainty. That's it --- Assurance!
Great Sermon! Loved this series: Assurance of Faith, of Hope and of Understanding by brother Clay. And my love for the brethren whose labor of love in support of the ministry has enriched me here in FL. So very grateful, and comforting to know that He who is my all has not left me comfortless, by whom I had received His Spirit, His Word and His Gospel. The clay pot preached from Scripture written by the Spirit of Truth however, the preacher can not Gove unto me assurance in Christ. Only God, for Christ's sake, can bless me with that faith and hope.
Great Sermon! The brethren @ SGC Ewing are very blessed to have brother Clay. And I thank God for the brethren because their labor of love in striving to support the work in NJ was a blessing to me when I resided in NY, and remains a blessing here in FL. And not only to me but to other saints, as well. Loved and commend:
Assurance of Faith (2021); Assurance of Spirit (2019) and the series: Full Assurance of Faith (2014), of Hope (2014) & of Understanding (2014). Great teaching by the Spirit through the vessel.
Great Sermon! Christ is all! Yet, the Father sends the Son & sends the Sprit. Christ Jesus prays for the children of God & the Spirit makes intersection. Three Persons yet undivided. Our minds can not comprehend the Godhead we just, by faith, believe it to be so. Our assurance is Christ. Here is God's decree & promise: “for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest” (context: the Eternal Covenant) whereby “The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God” & we have this confidence that “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities” (all our infirmities in our experience as a saint in life for He has not left us comfortless) & we know that “He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself”. What's that?--“To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles'; which is 'Christ in you, the hope of glory”. “These things have I (the Holy Spirit) written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God” (RE: John 6:29). God must give us this assurance, as well. How so? -- Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.
Great Message! Blessed Assurance Jesus is mine .. He has fetched me from the fall before the world began, reserved and accepted me in His Son, my Representative and Savior, and by Hid Spirit graciously works assurance in my soul, belief of he truth and preserve both my trust and love in His Son.
Great Sermon! Never thought I’d be so happy to have Covid and be bedridden - what a joy to hear this sermon from My Saviour for today! Oh blessed sickness to lead me to these words from My God!
Great Gospel Sermon! "Faithful is he that calleth you" (to this work)... "who also will do it". When God puts His Word in the mouth of His man He causeth the sheep to hear and rejoice. The works that accompany faith are the fruit of the Spirit, & He makes all His people know that their fruit is from Him & we agree & rejoice that it is that way.
Great Sermon! On Job 9:2 brotherTate preached. Those 3 miserable friends preached a Christ-less comfort to brother Job. All (3) pointed Job to himself; the flesh to “fix” the issue our God purposed & sent His just Job (the man). Their “lie” is preached by men using the word “grace” but by it have an entirely aberrant meaning than God the Holy Spirit' intention. The (3) had a gospel devoid Representation & Substitution yet, they demanded Job fix the problem with God himself. Now, on to Job (as a picture of the Lord Jesus Christ) & how these (3) represent the “Cause of God” and “How a sinner is made just before a Holy God”. Our Lord Jesus was separate from sinners; He is the perfect man described is Psalm 1; the Righteous Servant of God. Though He honored His Father, honored the Law, was the perfect Good Samaritan and Shepard (His Father's Darling Son in whom His Father was well pleased) the application, for us, is in ”the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said, He saved others; himself he cannot save”. Hence, there was no Representative or Substitute found for Him, who is called FAITHFUL; who as the God-Man, was made sin for sinners! He had to die for “He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him”.
Great Sermon! Nice solid take on the war in the middle east etc. And about who is in control of all things pertaining to all believers, not unto us, but unto Him who is Sovereign!!!
