“ Great Sermon! ” So grateful to God for bringing you in my path. Exciting to hear clear, sound, teaching that this child can understand. You teach with simplicity. And what all believers can benefit from if we’re to be a benefit to others.
“ Feeling anxious & uncertain? Please listen to this ” I found this to be very encouraging at this crazy time as we are experiencing at the moment with the corona virus.
This is an excellent teaching explaining/expanding on the following catechism statement:
What is God?
Answer: God is a Spirit, infinite, eternal, and unchangeable, in his being, wisdom, power, holiness, justice, goodness, and truth.
“ Excellent ” This teaching is excellent. I would strongly encourage you to at least listen to Part 1 (this one) & Part 2 (What is God? - this is great for this current time of uncertainty with Corona virus).
I've recently "discovered" catechisms & am amazed at how well they teach foundational Bible truths in a nutshell. Holly Dutton has produced a singing version (KJV) of the Westminster Shorter Catechism and I play this whilst driving. It has increased my understanding and has strengthened my faith.
If I had been taught a catechism when I was young I might have been better able to discern incorrect teaching when I was in a charismatic/mild word of faith/prosperity church for 10 years in the 1990s.
Catechisms are still man made (eg beliefs regarding baptism, election) but on the whole I have found that the majority of the Westminster Shorter Catechism to be doctinally sound. However the Baptist Catechism is more in line with what I believe. I especially like the additional one which Ps Jerry mentioned that is in the Baptist Catechism "What is the Word of God?" and him drawing attention to it being "the only".
As Ps Jerry stated, the first 22(?) statements can be very encouraging if you are feeling spiritually low. I'm finding myself singing them every now and then.
“ The Self-Maledictory Oath ” This pivotal Oath in human history is explained, expounded, and extended to us.
Eternal gratitude to our eternally amazing God.
“ Great Sermon! ” Great teacher. This is what church should be about. Helping us understand the foundations of our faith so that we may be able to stand on the Rock. Thank you.
“ SO many revelations About REVELATION! ” How could Old Testament saints believe the Gospel?
How many ways did God communicate with them?
And what about the New Testament saints before they had all the epistles?
EVERYTHING is explained - by Scripture - right here.
“ Great Sermon! ” Man! So many new things to hear about in this sermon -- and, yet, the foundational GOSPEL is still powerfully presented! Bless you, Mr. Slate!
“ The Carpenter is Building His Church! ” What a privilege it is to hear the Lord's servant tell of His work among the Agave people. I can hardly wait to greet these precious brethren in Heaven!
“ SEISMIC. ” Yes, these truths do shake the very foundations of our paradigms of GOD. Oh, how greatly we need to get it right!
Also, an overview of the sad decline of the modern Church is presented.
May the Lord help us to Repent!
“ Beyond Comprehension - That's God! ” TOUGH TRUTHS about our GOD! As simple as He is, we will never comprehend Him! Also, learn of the error, or heresy?, that split one Reformed denomination. Man cannot resist creating God in his own image. But God already had that in His plan. Beautifully taught.
“ FOUNDATIONAL MESSAGE! ” This thorough overview of the assurance of salvation and the reasons we doubt it would benefit each and every hearer!
"Restore unto me the JOY of my salvation."
