Sermon clips from York Township churches

55s
#GodsRedemptiveLove
“Now as we think about Israel's covenant with God, God is the one who is identified, the one who delivered the Israelites from Egypt. what is the basis of this? Right? This is really important as the people got. It's because of God's redemptive acts for the people. Now these are are summarized in the 10 commandments and legal text. Consequences. Right? Blessings for obedience, curses for disobedience. But this is really important. The choice is not between equally valid options. It's about accepting or rejecting a relationship that God has already initiated through his redemptive acts, we're responding to them. Divine election comes before human choice.”

#FaithfulChange
“In the context of our passage, there was no separation of church and state. So, a proclamation that leaders are replaceable, well, I'm just gonna let that sit there with you and call us back to this teaching of God's patience. There is opportunity to make things right with God. We can't undo history, but we can turn to where God is calling us. The mistake that these leaders were making, even if understandable considering their circumstances, is that they wanted to do things the way they've always done them. Anything that was too uncomfortable, too scary, They rejected. And because of that nonsense, the people suffered.”
40s
“They praised the maker that much more and gave Laurie to the father who entrusted the project to his son. That was when I finally understood. The restoration had never been the end of the story. It simply made the rest of the story possible. I had not been restored simply to be admired. I'd been restored so that once again, I could do what I had been made to do, in the service of the maker for the benefit of all who listen.”
46s
“a doctrine out of it or a teaching out of it. We need to understand as a whole. And as we look at it as a whole, we realize that how do I work out my own salvation? By realizing my weakness and that my it's only through the power of Christ that I can become like Jesus. That's like Paul says in second Corinthians 12. When I am weak, then I'm strong. Paul came to the realization that because as I recognize my weakness, as I see how weak I am, I realize where my power is, where I really realize where my need is. It's when Jesus, and then I become strong because I'm strong in Jesus. So we work out our salvation by realizing our weakness, our need of Jesus, and then we allow God to do his work in us, his good pleasure in us.”
51s
“But how many of us keep that checklist up here? And and it's not even at 77 times yet. Right? It's not 490 times. We keep that checklist up here. But our love is supposed to be demonstrated through forgiveness that keeps no record of wrongs like we see in first Corinthians 13. We don't keep record of wrong, we keep short accounts, we just keep forgiving. We want the line in the sand as long as it looks more generous than others. But Jesus says there is no line. You keep forgiving people. Jesus, do you know how difficult it is to forgive people who've sinned against you? He knows, he knows, and he calls us to keep forgiving.”
44s
“No. Our hope is not based on whether we like those in authority over us. Our hope doesn't change. Our hope is in Jesus who loves us and forgives us even when we tell him or others in authority, but I really don't want to. Because when we say that, I don't want to, Jesus said to the father, not my will but yours be done. And because of that, the forgiveness that he won for you, that is the thing that's changed your life. And that is what changes the world.”
54s
“Jesus absorbs the whole mess of what humanity has to bring, and he does forgive. And to do anything less would leave things unforgivable. But if Jesus has forgiven it, the worst of it, who are we to hold somebody else to a higher standard? And who are we to hold ourselves or to be held to a different standard? But in practicality in practicality, this is difficult to practice. Too many practices there. Why? First of all, we we we tend to start we tend to start too late, too slowly. Say it another way. We begin this process too slowly.”
39s
“And by the power of the Holy Spirit, we, I believe, are called, and we are empowered take these actions that are both radical and unexpected to replace othering with neighboring. Jesus didn't just tell people to love their neighbors no matter who they are. He demonstrated it time and time again. There he is in his very last moments of being with his closest friends, recognizing and acting with love toward them even though he knew that they would betray and deny him.”
28s
“Jonathan did not consider his status as royal heir as something to be taken to his advantage. He didn't he didn't lord it over David. Instead, what did he do? He emptied himself of his royal garments in service and love to David. When we look at Jonathan's love for David, don't we see a small shadow and portrait of the love of Jesus for us? Because did Jesus make a covenant with us?”
47s
#SalvationByGrace
“It's not good works. It's not bible knowledge. It's it's not Christian heritage, our parents' faith, our societal status. And and we do have a wonderful thing. Right? We have profession of faith. We even want... We want to mentor our young people in such a way that that... When they come up here on the stage and they claim that faith that Joshua claimed, that it's theirs, that it's theirs. It's because of one thing and one thing only. It's because of what God has done. Say that with me. It's because what God has done. It's in and through the good shepherd and our lord and savior Jesus Christ. That's a gift for us today.”
