Sermon clips from New Kensington churches

56s
“There are things that happen in the life of a believer when we are spirit filled, when our mind is controlled by the spirit that even the the most dastardly thing that could sneak into your world, the hardest thing that come into your life and you can have this unmistakable, undeniable peace that you can't explain to anybody else because it doesn't make sense to people who don't have the spirit of God. It does not make sense to the world. Well why aren't you upset? Well you know I I guess I'm just trusting God that he's gonna take care of it. Absolutely blows people out of the water. It is a walking living testimony. You are a walking living testimony when God brings you through whatever he brings you through.”
49s
“We, if left up to our flesh, wants to take over God's desires. You say, well, I don't really want that. Well, okay. I know you say that, but if you're not willing to surrender to what God wants, what are you saying? Are you not saying you're smarter than he is? Are you not saying you're more powerful than he is? You can handle it. You can fix it. Flesh isn't just weak. It's hostile. We also said you can't legislate it. You can't make a list of rules. I mean last week we gave you some extra kind of systems to help you and there are all kinds of systems and good books and things, but you can't just go through a checklist and find this to work.”
49s
“I don't but what I what I do have is the pursuit of having the mind of the spirit don't, that even if any of that is happening or if all of it is happening all at once, I can still know that I have life and I can have peace. It is an unmistakable thing and if you've not experienced it yet and you are a child of God, I believe as you continue to pursue the mind of the spirit you will experience it and what I'm talking about is the peace that passes all understanding. It makes no sense why you are calm and at peace about x, still in the blank. The car broke down but you're okay with it because god's gonna take care of it.”
49s
“Yeah. Yeah. I tell people this all the time. I love the through stories in scripture. There were times that God brought his people out and saved them out of something. But many times in scripture, they went through it. The the Israelites went through the wilderness. Daniel went through the lion's den. Shananiah has Hananiah, Azariah, Mishael, you know them as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego went through the fiery furnace. Jesus went through the cross over and over again. The problem is as we try to do it in our own strength, our own energy, and we learned last time that our flesh isn't just weak, it's hostile. It's an enemy of God.”

#deadToSinLife
“A true Christian cannot live in sin because he or she is supposed to be dead to sin. Let me say that again and I want you to catch this because I didn't say that a true Christian cannot sin, it's not what I said. A child of God, someone who has born the name of Christ who has followed God's prescription of saying I admit that I'm a sinner, I believe that Jesus died and was buried and rose again and by faith I'm asking him to come into my life to forgive me of my sins and take of that person should no longer be able to live in sin because they're dead to it.”
46s
#dontFeedTheDeadSin
“If the dead part of you the sinful part of you is dead then don't feed it don't pick it back up and play with it that's absurd I mean in physical reality it's absurd right if people that go in the graveyard and dig things up and play with it we think they have a problem so if y 'all are doing that on a daily basis we need to talk actually we need to do more than talk it's an absurd thing to do why would somebody do that it makes no sense and that's exactly what Paul is saying it makes no sense for the child of god to go back and play in the way they used to be it makes no sense for them to live in that understanding.”
31s
#holySpiritConviction
“I'm not saying that when you become a Jesus follower, that you're going to go out and live any way that you want to live. I'm saying that when you become a Jesus follower, you won't want to go out and live any way you want to live. There'll be something different. And when you go out and you try to live the way that you think you should live, there's going to be something inside of you that says, this isn't cool. What are you doing this? The Holy Spirit on the inside of you as a believer is going to be going, huh, what are we doing here?”
20s
#freedomInChrist
“Christ did not come that you should live in bondage, but that you should live in freedom. That's the plan he has. God provided righteousness. It is more than just the declaring of us righteous on the basis of faith, but God poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit.”
27s
#freedomFromSinPower
“Not only am I free from the penalty of sin, I have now been set free from the power of sin. That's daily living, folks. That's daily life stuff when you're set free from the power of sin. You don't have to sin. You have been given the power of the resurrection of Jesus Christ to help you not to sin. That's available to you.”
19s
#GodLovesAndTransforms
“God will take you just as you are he will I mean you you can't be too bad for God to take you he loves you he loves there's not a sinner he's met that he doesn't love and he will take you as you are but he won't leave you that way.”
