Sermon clips from Coffs Harbour churches

29s
“The point is purity is not about the things that we do. It's actually about the condition of the heart. Yeah. As you come to love God, all of a sudden, you're no longer thinking about gotta do this, can't do that, can't eat that. All the religiously stuff, all the rules and conditions and laws and condemnation drop off. You actually get yourself a pure heart because the lord refreshes it. He renews it. That's his promise. I will give you a clean heart.”
26s
“We all die. We all go before God. And the only thing that separates the sheep from the goats is that truth that lives within us by the Holy Spirit. It's not how good we've lived our lives. It's whether or not we have the Holy Spirit. Does that make sense? How important is it to strength to strengthen the truth, and the fruit will be always always the fruit will be godliness in the saints.”
21s
“God can't do anything, can he? He cannot lie. By nature, God cannot lie. It's right there. And so the hope that we have in eternal life is guaranteed because God's promised it. That's the amazing thing about God's promises, is they're guaranteed. It's different to I hope that today's gonna be sunny, as the example I always use, or tomorrow's gonna be sunny. We know it's not.”
18s
“There comes a time when we need to rebuke sharply, and we see this right through scripture. We even see that with a correction in first Corinthians where they had to expel someone so that they would actually repent, and it was successful. In the next book, you could see they repented. But Paul literally said, hand him over to the hands of Satan”
38s
“"Religion understands God's word and it magnifies Jesus' glory. You see in verse 13, then the disciples understood that he had spoken to them about John the Baptist. Now they've rightly perceived who John is. John was the Elijah who had come to restore the work through repentance and baptism. You see religion just doesn't understand. It does what it's taught. And this glorifies God. John's ministry of restoration to God through baptism and repentance was given to him by God and it was carried on and carried on and into the church. And we are to do the same."”
35s
“"Brothers and sisters there are Christians today and I pray that we are not them who know God's word. They have all the right doctrine in the church but they lack reverence and honor to his glory and because of this they destroy the glory of God believing all the right things because it's just a belief system. What's the point of knowing all the Nicene Creed if it doesn't translate into anything? You know and you normally see it in scoffing. Christians that scoff."”
44s
“"You know, after I got saved, I had a lot of zeal for God, wanted to do all this stuff. As you do, you get that big, fiery, burning chest. And for about four years, I felt like every attempt I tried to do things for God, it just kind of got snatched away from me. And I felt very disappointed. And I still believe to this day that the reason that that was happening was because I was trying to build shelters. Just trying to do something for God. And I think he was just saying, just learn from me. Would you just kind of shut up, actually pick up your Bible, and just learn from me first. Know who I am. Know what I have for you. And then go."”
43s
“"There's a difference between hearing and adhering. So many of us have it going into our ears, but it's not doing anything. Do we see this? Are you listening? God's not saying, hey, Peter, make sure you stick next to Jesus and just hear everything he says. He's already been doing that. Adhere. How does someone revere the glory of God? How do we show our honor, respect to the glory revealed in Christ, they revere his glory by following his word. And that doesn't mean just the portions you like. That is why we must preach the whole counsel of God's witness."”
55s
“"Brothers and sisters, answer me truly. If God were to speak with you with a thunderous crack and a whip, like the hairs on the back of my neck stood up, with just my little daughter speaking to me, would you not pay the utmost attention give the highest gravity and weight to the words that were about to proceed out of the mouth of the Lord? I want you to consider on Mount Sinai, God speaks the words of the Ten Commandments, Exodus 20. He finishes the Ten Commandments, the Lord says, and it says in verse 18, all the people witnessed the thunder and the lightning, the sound of the ram's horn and the mountain surrounded by smoke."”
37s
“"God has a purpose for you, and it's specific to the way that He created you. Point two, revering the glory of God. Go back now with me to verse five. While He was still speaking, suddenly a bright cloud covered them, and the voice from heaven said, This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased. So you can see there, while He's still speaking, so Peter's still blabbing away what he should be doing, and God has to step in halfway through and just put a stop to whatever you're trying to do."”
