Sermon clips from Brookhaven churches

85s
“When is this? These people survived the worst time earth and anything in the cosmos will ever experience had has just passed. These are not spirits he's judging. These are living people, all the nations. It's not in heaven. It's on earth. king will say to those on his right hand, come, you blessed of my father. Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. Enter the kingdom. And we don't have time to go into all the words, but it's important to go into the words because how you translate these words from the Greek matters. It really does. There could be a big difference between inherit and enter. I'm not saying that's the situation here, but I want you to keep that in mind. We need to look at word meanings if we're gonna get this right.”
47s
“And listen, those statements, they they aren't necessarily wrong. Right? Like, their theology may be good, and I believe that most people, their hearts are sincere. But sometimes those words, they just land differently when our world feels like it's falling apart. Amen? Because when you're hurting, what you really wanna know is, God, where are you? Do you do you see me right now? Do you do you care? Are you paying attention to me? Let me say it again, God is not intimidated by your honest prayers. He isn't offended by sincere wrestling because faith isn't pretending that everything is fine. Faith is bringing your confusion, bringing your disappointment, bringing your hurt and your questions directly to God and refusing to walk away even when you don't understand.”
38s
#ExpectResistanceAtStart
“they get so discouraged on the front end, they never even start. I wonder how many people God laid something big on their heart and discouragement and opposition before the first step. Wiped it out. The enemy is gonna try to take it out at the very beginning. So at the very beginning, expect resistance. I just met with a couple this week that they're like, Hey, for the first time in our life, like we're gonna trust God with our money and we want to make a donation to the church and lo and behold, twenty four hours later, their alternator goes out.”
56s
“But what's the point? What's the application that we can take from this story here? Well, the first thing is we need to be prepared for god to work in our lives. Oftentimes, we are called to do things before we know the full picture or what the potential outcome will be. But we are to face life expecting, anticipating that God will do what he says he will do. Amen? That he will do exactly what it is that he said he'll do. We're called to trust I wanna ask, are you ready to see god work? Are you so overwhelmed by the circumstances in front of you that you miss what God is doing?”
50s
“But here is the deal. Like, here's what Solomon is saying in this verse. You don't build wealth in this world by simply winging it. Like, I know some people that think they're spirit led when they're really just living a passive life. They're letting life happen to them. So the enemy of financial health isn't just having a low income. It's having no financial intention. Did you know that if you don't tell your money what to do, at some point, it will tell you what you're not allowed to do. Foolish people just spend money and they wonder, hey, where did it go? Wise people invest their money and tell it where'd you go?”
42s
“The world's wisdom says you've gotta look good and you've gotta have your your profile picture perfect at the right angle, the right sunlight. You know, you've gotta put this best image of yourself out especially on social media platforms today. And while there is truth in the bible that talks about being healthy and taking care of your body because God has given it to you, Placing your faith in your image is going to bring you further away from god because god doesn't value the image as much. He doesn't value what you look like on the outside. What god values is your heart. He values the inside, the wisdom of who you are before him.”
62s
“``This is this is something we really need to think about. But just just to wrap up, these sheep have no clue what's going on. It's quite apparent. And they're being allowed to enter into the kingdom based upon how they treated the lord's brethren. That's we need to work this out. Who the brethren are. Can only be two groups, and we better get this right. Because if we don't get this right, it unravels all through the rest of the scriptures. And there's a lot of strings you can pull like this one. If you don't get it right and you pull the string and the whole thing unravels, this is just one of those major strings that you can pull and be left with nothing at the end of it.”
50s
“First of all and and we gotta end here, unfortunately, but major point I wanna bring up. If these are believers, if these are Christians, if these are bible readers, how come they're totally clueless about what Jesus they've obviously never read this verse. This verse has existed for two thousand years by the time they see it. How how do they not know what's going on? They're getting to inherit the kingdom, which by the way means they get to live at in their human bodies in the millennium. They haven't they haven't attained glory. Doesn't he doesn't say that. He said you get to come into the kingdom, and they're they're in their bodies.”
51s
“And then the same thing with the goats. On my left hand, depart from me. You're cursed into everlasting fire. They don't got any chance. They're toast literally prepared for the devil and his angels. By the way, you get that? The fire the fire was was not meant for for people. It was it was prepared for those beings. The kingdom and heaven was prepared for all The other side was prepared only to punish the rebellious angels. So it's man's choice to end up there, and we'll end up we'll wrap up here.”
46s
“He's not threatened by your sincere questions. He can handle your honesty. In fact, I would argue that honest questions brought to God are far healthier than fake confidence that keeps him at a distance. And that's why this passage gives us permission to bring our real questions to God. Not because questioning God is the goal, alright, but because bringing those questions to him is far better than carrying them by yourself and allowing them to drive you away from God. I looked this up. The name Habakkuk means to embrace and to wrestle. And honestly, that's where a lot of us live. We're trying to embrace with who we know God is while wrestling with the reality that we are currently experiencing.”
