Great Sermon! David from India. This gentleman speaks of many different scriptures in different places in the bible. Which one are you concerned with. I always appreciate when a bible teacher is telling us in not so many words that "it's a narrow way and you better walk in it"
Bringing others to the Lord. I have other view than Willie Mullan about the extent of the application of Christ's death. But I found useful what he said about the disciples who met the Lord Jesus and immediately found in their heart the desire to bring others to the Lord.
Great Sermon! Best and soundest sermon I have heard in a long time! Dr. Beeke's passionate presentation of the genius of Puritanism should be heard by every pastor or preacher today. Some need to be reminded, some rebuked, some encouraged and exhorted to preach biblically or not at all! The pulpits of our evangelical and our Reformed churches are filled with men who have either never begun, or have given up, preaching with purpose and with power. We may have rationalized our fruitlessness and faithlessness; but God will call us to account nonetheless. The question must be asked, do we believe the gospel or not? Do we believe in heaven and hell or not? Only a return to passionate, experiential preaching of the doctrine of sovereign grace can save the church from total irrelevance and final destruction! May God give us grace to heed the words of Dr. Beeke, and start preaching like we mean it!
Great Sermon! What an awareness that brings shame. What an awful truth to hear . God forgive us for being so idle and in our own comfort that we don't see or care for what You plead for . The lost
LISTEN! Very practical. The speaker touches on a subject that I have never heard spoken on before but became evidently clear that was something that's missing especially among churches that are preaching free grace in their emphasis. He touches on a neglected subject, i.e. responsibility and effort in sanctification, and even a creeping error that is worth uncovering. Has the grace of God been turned today into licentiousness? What good men are worth following as examples today? What type of men should Christians esteem? Certainly not who the world esteems. The speaker contrasts today with good men of former years.
Blessed sermon. Blessed message for my soul. What a great warning! And what a tragedy to be with the Lord Jesus for 3 and a half years and to go to hell! It is possible to hear the greatest preachers and to g to hell!It is possible to see great spiritual revivals and to go to hell! Oh, Lord, make my soul to remain not untouched in the presence of grace! Amen!
Needed to Hear This Encouragement Thank You! Todd Friel, for this encouraging word to go and preach the Gosple. I believe it is more than safe to say MUCH PRAYER, REAL PRAYING THROUGH to being filled with the Holy Spirit and His Power and all the will of God in this, is desperately Needed to live this out But the reality is that the Lord Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God who takes away ... say it with me..."my sin" is Infinitely Worthy of Every Bit of: (1) Going to a place you don't want to go (2) To Give a Message you don't want to give (3) To people who don't want to hear it. But talk about something done right in the obedience of faith that will have much good fruit ... clarifying our preaching in our Churches, sanctifying and motivating our praying and transforming our fellowship to having a real Biblical fellowship in the Faith! Wow!
Must Hear for Pastors A great challenge to Pastors, even if it you can only do it once per month. I have benefited much from street preaching in the open air (public places and abortion mills).
We must never say (some do) that a pastor is not faithful if he does not open air preach.
Enriching, inspiring and to the point ".. we need a new breed of preachers, young men determined to swim upstream ... we need the current crop of preachers to learn to follow good men, to learn from good men, ... this is not a day for half-heartness, .." Thank you brother Armen, for bringing forward the pressing need of Holy Ghost empowered ministry and living
Great Sermon! I hope your first visit to the states was a pleasant one. It was an honor to have you here on our soil. I had been thinking of and praying for the conference all weekend, and then eagerly checking in to see if the messages had been uploaded. I've not been disappointed by you and the other dear brothers and men of God and your messages. Thank you. May our Lord have pity and mercy on both our countries.
Great Sermon! Rebuke is a gracious gift of His mercy. You have made it so clear and easy to understand in just a few sentances and yet shows us the WAY for a lifetime !
Praising God! What a fantastic encouragement... for you all at SA and for every Christian!
Indeed, I can only imagine how many souls SA is a blessing to! Personally, I use it EVERY day as I wait on God’s timing for seminary. SA is my personal chapel and I can't imagine trying to find solid teaching and preaching without it. You guys are an unspeakable blessing and I say along with Dr. Beeke, one day... you'll see an innumerable host of souls that your ministry has blessed by the preaching of God's Word.
Thank you... words don't do my gratitude justice, but thank you so much for this great resource for spiritual growth!
