Sermon catalog

This video is a worship service featuring music and praise dedicated to Jesus Christ as the Redeemer. The lyrics express gratitude to God the Father for giving His Son and anticipate a future time of service in God's glorious presence. The central theme is acknowledging Jesus's role as the Messiah and Lamb of God.

The service focused heavily on themes of praise, God's unwavering presence, and the need for the Holy Spirit. The speaker repeatedly emphasized that God is still on the throne, promising to remember His own despite trials. The message concluded by focusing on Jesus Christ as our Advocate, drawing strength from His sacrifice to achieve righteousness.

The sermon uses the story of Samuel to illustrate that God speaks to the humble and pure heart, bypassing the knowledgeable but burdened. The central message is that knowing God as a loving Father, as taught in the Lord's Prayer, provides profound security. The speaker warns against the 'no entry' roads of discouragement and self-condemnation, reminding listeners that through Christ, there is no condemnation for those who are in Him.

The central message is that the greatest danger of deception comes when a believer loses their fervent devotion to Jesus Christ. When devotion shifts to worldly things like money, possessions, or even ministry itself, one becomes susceptible to false teachings. True protection against deception is maintaining a deep, passionate love for Christ, which serves as the ultimate filter for all doctrine and teaching.

The sermon addresses the difference between merely asking for the Holy Spirit and actually being changed by it. The speaker warns that if one remains comfortable with their natural tendencies, attitudes, or responses—even in private moments like interacting with a spouse—they are still operating from the natural self. True spiritual change means accepting the things of the Spirit, which are foreign to the unspiritual person.

The speaker warns that the greatest danger is when the soul becomes adept at outwardly conforming to what is expected in a church setting, making one appear like a good Christian. This outward performance can deceive the individual and others, even if the soul has not truly surrendered its place on the throne to Christ. The core message is the need for deep, internal transformation beyond mere outward compliance.

The central message is that merely overcoming specific sins is not the ultimate goal of God. God's ultimate goal is to remove the 'self' from the throne, which is the root of sin. If the self remains in control, sin will simply manifest in different ways or become adept at hiding, leading to a false sense of spiritual progress.

The central message is that every believer has a specific ministry or course planned by God, which must be their number one passion. The speaker urges listeners to use their unique gifts, no matter how small, rather than comparing themselves to others. Ultimately, believers must present their bodies as living sacrifices daily, dedicating their lives to fulfilling God's will before Christ's return.

The central message is that true rejoicing should not come from temporary successes, such as casting out demons or material gains. Instead, believers should rejoice solely because their names are written in the Lamb's Book of Life, which signifies their salvation through Jesus Christ.

Jesus refused the anesthetic offered at the cross because He chose to remain fully alert and conscious to forgive those crucifying Him and to care for His mother, demonstrating the depth of His sacrificial love. Zac Poonen teaches that understanding and meditating on Jesus's love at the cross is the foundation for all Christian obedience, arguing that genuine love for God flows from recognizing how deeply He first loved us, which then enables us to love others unconditionally.

Santosh Poonen leads a worship service centered on praising God and recognizing His majesty, holiness, and mercy. Through worship songs and brief exhortation, he emphasizes that believers have been redeemed by Christ's blood and called to live in the grace of God, standing apart from the world's perverted system through faith in the Savior's love and sacrifice.

The central message emphasizes that perfect love, found only in God, drives out all fear and insecurity regarding our relationship with Him. The speaker advises believers to establish a foundation built on the certainty of God's unconditional love rather than seeking approval from people or fearing difficult circumstances. He encourages readers to view God through the lens of intimate covenant relationships, particularly referencing the bridegroom/bride imagery found in Song of Solomon.

The central message is that believers must maintain the mindset of being strangers on earth, recognizing that this world is temporary. The speaker uses examples from scripture, such as Abraham and David, to illustrate that true focus should be on the eternal city prepared by God, rather than earthly possessions or worldly events. Ultimately, the focus must remain on Jesus Christ as the only true King, ensuring that all actions and thoughts are for God's glory.

The sermon warns believers to flee idolatry, defining it not just as worshipping idols, but also as greed—coveting what God has not given us. To be ready for Christ's return, believers must ensure that Christ rules in their hearts, not self. While salvation's foundation rests solely on Christ's righteousness, the believer's 'dress' for the marriage to the Lamb consists of their own righteous actions, which flow from genuine faith.

This biography recounts the life of Elijah Hedding, detailing his spiritual journey from a man initially uncommitted to Christ to a devoted preacher. His conversion was marked by deep conviction, profound weeping, and the clear witness of the Holy Spirit. Ultimately, God called him to full-time ministry, where he dedicated his life to proclaiming the gospel.

The central message is that the ultimate goal of life, both on earth and in heaven, is to please God. The speaker challenges listeners to examine their motivations, contrasting the desire to please God with the tendency to seek the approval of men. He argues that while pleasing others (neighbors) is important, the primary priority must be pleasing Jesus Christ, as this sets the right focus for daily life.

The message challenges the common understanding of one's 'part' in the church, arguing that membership is not defined by ministry role or position. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 12, the speaker emphasizes that while the body has many diverse members, it functions as one unit in Christ. He stresses that every member, no matter how seemingly weak or less honorable, is intentionally placed by God and is necessary for the whole body to function correctly.

The speaker encourages self-examination using lessons from biblical figures like Nebuchadnezzar, focusing on areas such as conscience, how one treats others, pride, and the willingness to humble oneself. The central question posed is, "Who is your hero?" This prompts listeners to consider who they admire in life, suggesting that our admiration reveals what we value or are partial to.

The speaker argues that a believer's true 'lot in life' is not defined by worldly achievements, plans, or circumstances, but rather by knowing and experiencing the love of God in Christ Jesus. He uses examples from the Song of Solomon, Abraham and Lot, and a cheerful, disabled elevator operator to illustrate that true joy and fulfillment come from this spiritual relationship, regardless of external limitations or loss.

Jesus never sought the approval of others because he knew what was in man and did not need external testimony. The message warns that constantly seeking approval from friends or the world is a fruitless chase that never brings satisfaction. Ultimately, one must decide to stop seeking external validation.

The message warns against the sin of people-pleasing, emphasizing that one's decisions should never be motivated by the desire to gain approval from others. True Christian living, like Christ's example, requires prioritizing pleasing God over seeking the acceptance of people, even when it leads to difficulty.

The central message is that Jesus did not seek personal reputation or try to impress others. The speaker emphasizes that 'made himself of no reputation' means Jesus did not want people to think highly of him. The teaching advises believers not to focus on self-impression, even when succeeding in areas like academics or sports.
