Summary In this sermon, the preacher teaches that communion is far more than a memorial—it is an active participation in Christ’s body and blood that brings believers into deeper intimacy with Him, allowing His victory over Satan to become our present reality. Drawing from 1 Peter 3:18–19 and 1 Corinthians 10:16–21, he explains that just as Jesus...
Summary In this sermon, the preacher urges believers to resist the world’s pressure to conform to its godless values and instead present themselves as living sacrifices—fully surrendered to God in holiness. Drawing from Romans 12:1-2, he explains that true worship is total surrender, not mere religious activity, and that holiness means being set...
Summary In this sermon, the preacher uses the powerful analogy of popcorn popping under heat to illustrate how God’s Word transforms us when it penetrates the heart, causing inner growth and expansion that breaks through outer resistance. Drawing primarily from James 1:19–21, he explains that maturity comes when we bear visible,...
Summary In this sermon, the preacher stresses that true victory over the devil comes only through first submitting fully to God, then resisting the enemy with the authority of God’s Word, as outlined in James 4:7. He draws from James 4:7-10, emphasizing that God opposes the proud and double-minded but gives grace to the humble who show authentic...
Summary In this sermon, the preacher emphasizes that Christians exist to represent God in the world, and since God is love, we must express biblical love — agape, a deliberate decision to compassionately, righteously, responsibly, and sacrificially meet others' needs, not just an emotion. Drawing primarily from 1 John 3:16–20, he concludes...
Summary The preacher emphasizes constant communication with God in every moment: pray when suffering, praise when cheerful. Key passage is James 5:13–14, where James instructs the suffering to pray, the cheerful to sing praises, and the weary to call the elders for prayer. The core message is that life’s pain and joy both invite ongoing...
Summary Drawing from Romans 8, Galatians 5, and Ephesians 5:18, the preacher explains that Christians must continually «keep on being filled with the Spirit» because the filling isn’t a one-time event—like gas that gets burned up as soon as you drive away—but a daily lifestyle and mindset. The law reveals right and wrong but can’t empower...
Summary In this exposition of James 3, the preacher contrasts heavenly wisdom—which comes solely from God, brings peace and order, and is rooted in fearing the Lord—with earthly wisdom that is demonic in origin, producing conflict and chaos. He warns that much of today’s cultural, media, and even educational «wisdom» is hell-inspired because it...
Summary Based on James 5, the preacher stresses that in times of deep suffering, sickness, or overwhelming burdens, believers must pray specifically and earnestly to connect with heaven—cute, rote prayers won’t cut it when life weighs you down. If the pain is too great to pray alone, call the church elders to pray over you and anoint you with...
Summary Drawing from James 2, the preacher distinguishes between justification by faith (for eternal salvation) and justification by works (for experiencing God’s tangible intervention in everyday life and history). Using Abraham and Rahab as examples, he shows how obedient actions tied to faith deepen intimacy with God, mature faith, and make...
Summary In this message from Isaiah 58—the longest biblical passage on fasting—the preacher emphasizes that God desires a true fast marked by genuine repentance and humility, not mere religious ritual or self-centered motives. The people were fasting yet wondering why God wasn’t responding, because their fasts prioritized personal desires over...
Summary The preacher stresses that Christians are called to be visible lights in the world, doing «good works» that not only benefit people but also glorify and advertise God, rather than just performing good deeds like anyone else. Drawing from Matthew 5:14–16, he urges believers to unapologetically represent Christ in every sphere of life,...
Summary The preacher warns that Christians are redeemed for God’s kingdom, not this passing world, and we must not conform to its pressures or values, as doing so jeopardizes our intimacy with the Father. Drawing from Romans 12:2, 1 John 2:15–17, and other verses, he stresses the world’s temporary nature and the danger of loving it more than God....
Summary The preacher emphasizes that God must be the sole source in our lives, with no competing idols allowed—any person, thing, or idea we rely on for our needs becomes an idol that displaces Him. Drawing from 1 Samuel 7:3, he stresses the need to return fully to God by removing foreign gods and idols, just as Israel had to abandon theirs to...
Summary The preacher drives home that God's Word is powerful and true, but it only changes us when we act on it—not just hear it. He bases this on James 1:22-25, comparing the Word to a mirror that reveals our true self, urging us to gaze intently and obey. The bottom line: hearing alone deceives us; real transformation comes from being...
