Sermon clips from Cropwell churches

27s
“I want you to notice what God doesn't say here. God doesn't say be impressive. God doesn't say be popular. God doesn't say go be influential. God doesn't say be wealthy or be successful by the world standards. What he says is be obedient. Students, God says be obedient. This is the one of the most important truths, seniors, that you can hear today.”
30s
“This world will define success one way, but I want you to know that God defines it another way. The world says that success is about platform. God says success is about faithfulness. The world says that success is about visibility. God says success is about obedience. The world says success is about making a name for yourself. God says it's about your life about surrendering your life to the name above every name.”
22s
“And before you step into what's next, the question is not where are you going? The question is, will you walk with Jesus when you get there? Not when it's convenient, not when your parents are watching, not when church is easy, not when faith costs you nothing. Will you follow Jesus when it's yours to choose?”
22s
“Will you stand when culture pushes? Will you obey when compromise is easier? Will you stay faithful when nobody is making you? Seniors, this is your moment to settle it. Are you gonna commit your life to walk with Jesus when you get to the next? Not whether you'll be perfect, but whether you'll be his.”
33s
“Often think of the phrase when I'm preparing to preach that my job as the pastor is to comfort the afflicted. But there's another side of that. And we're to afflict the comfortable. You say, pastor, you're to afflict me. It's not really my job to do that. But sometimes the word of the Lord does that. It steps on our toes. It gets us out of our comfort zone. It makes us realize that maybe we need to get up and do more for Jesus.”
31s
“The Bible is to be studied. Next, the Bible soothes. When we study scripture, we discover how it soothed our soul. According to verse 10, the preacher sought to find words of delight. The word delight here refers to desires or pleasure. This makes me think of Psalm 119, 103, where the word says, how sweet are your words to my taste? Sweeter than honey to my mouth. Friends, when we get into God's word, there is nothing better to read.”
30s
“This means that everyone will be answerable to the Almighty God. Me, you, the people who are not living for Jesus, the people who are not sitting in this room today, the people who are not sitting in any house of the Lord today, the people who are turning their backs on the Lord, we will be answerable to the Almighty for everything, even those things that we do in secret. Because there is no secret from God and God keeps meticulous records.”
28s
“However, the good news is that Jesus absorbed the wrath that comes with judgment. Jesus took our punishment. Jesus went to the cross taking the judgment that you and I deserve by exchanging our rottenness righteousness for his righteousness. He did it all in one and he did it all for you and for me.”
25s
“If I find in myself desires, which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world. If there's nothing in this world that satisfies us, and as believers, I pray that nothing in this world will ever satisfy us because we were created for something more and something more is eternity with Jesus.”
21s
“The end of the matter is to focus on eternal matters. Solomon's given us lots of resources. He's given us lots of advice. He's given us lots of instructions. But at the end of all of that, the end of the matter is to focus on eternal matters.”
