Sermon clips from Linwood churches

39s
“not to some latest psychological thing but the apostles doctrine. Fast forward. We devote ourselves to the apostles doctrine, not to the guru, whether that be Arminius, Calvin, Spurgeon. As good as they might be, we don't devote, believe something just because this person believed it or because this guru in the twentieth century whether that be Jones or Hiles or Warren or whoever. The purpose, what whatever new model for whatever church, we devote ourselves to the apostles doctrine.”
39s
“so I wanna ask you, when we see they devoted themselves to these things, Acts two forty two, would you have fit in at this church? Like, if you saw a church that acted like this, would you even wanted to be a part of it? Or would you have thought, those guys are extreme. Like, they're extra. I mean, they're like, You know what that church is like? They devote themselves, continue steadfastly. In the apostle's doctrine, teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, and prayers. They're like extreme.”
42s
“Some people try to point out and says and when it says that they had all things common and they say, see, the early church that had some type of early communism. That is not what is being done here. It does say in chapter four verse 35 that there was not a needy person among them, but and it does also teaches us when we get to chapter four that there's a church treasury, but neither Jesus nor the apostles forbade private ownership. Intrinsic to the command, thou shalt not steal is god's ordinance on ordaining that there is private property that somebody else owns something that you should not steal from that person.”
41s
“The the they devoted these new converts did not simply just add Christianity to an already busy schedule. It wasn't like, hey, I've got a nice life. I've got a job. I'm married now. I got a house. I think I'll start adding church onto that and add Jesus as the cherry on top of my life Sunday. Okay? That that they devoted themselves. This was the real deal that so if you're going to devote yourself to this as a church, as an individual, that means there's gonna be other good things that you won't be able to devote yourself to.”
27s
“"So do you know this love is for you? Do you love God? Remember, this is what he said. He works all things together for good to those that love. God. And it's like, OK, so is it content upon? No, this is what he's talking about. This is what saints are because we love him because he first loved us. And this is this is like those that. To all those in Rome loved by God called to be saints. Grace pieces."”
31s
“"How can you know that these promises are for you? Are you in Christ, Jesus, our Lord union with Christ? Are you in him? I am persuaded. How do you know these apply to you? Not just to some other Christians. If you are in Christ, Jesus, our Lord, neither death nor life. Death and life are. The two states of the human existence, and then it says angels and demons, and these kind of summarize the spiritual realm."”
38s
“"Are you persuaded? Are you sure? Are you confident? Hopefully this text and this message will help you be confident of that and be convinced of that. That he's in all these things, not away. Sometimes we think we have to get on a higher plane than, you know, or a higher ground. But he's in all these things in this. I'm persuaded. That we are more than conquerors. That that more than just conquer that. That whatever that those things are. That God will work them to our good. Work them together for good. We're more than conquerors."”
36s
“"Believers may be separated from physical well-being and homeland and family and health and occupation and friends and many other things, but they will not be separated from the love, so then verse 37 comes this phrase, for I am persuaded, King James says, I am sure he's confident that neither death nor life nor angels nor rulers nor things present or things to come nor powers nor height nor depth or anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord."”
27s
“"This gospel frees us to and enables us to live the Christian life. So he talked about how we can mortify the flesh because we have the spirit. He's told us already this in Romans eight beginning part of the chapter. And this union with Christ is what settles it all. Us being in Christ. We have a few folks identifying with the Lord in baptism next Sunday in the show that they're going public with their union with Christ, that they're in him."”
7s
“"I hope Romans eight will be one of which you cling as a source of encouragement and grounding in these gospel trauma promises let's pray together."”
