Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest. (Matthew 9:37-38) ~~~~ This sermon was preached at Jireh Chapel Tenterden Harvest Thanksgiving service. ~~~~ *1/ The identity of the Lord of the harvest. 2/ What the Lord of the harvest controls. 3/ The means that the Lord of the harvest uses.* **Sermon summary:** This sermon explores the identity, control, and means of the Lord of the Harvest as presented in Matthew 9:37-38. It emphasizes that God is the sovereign master builder who governs every aspect of the spiritual harvest, from the eternal election of souls to the specific timing of their conversion. The preacher illustrates how God controls the preparation of hearts, the drawing of sinners, and the quickening of faith, ensuring that salvation is entirely His work rather than a human effort. Furthermore, the message highlights that God chooses to use weak means, such as the prayers of His people and the preaching of labourers empowered by the Holy Spirit, to accomplish His purposes. The sermon concludes with an encouragement to trust in God's perfect timing and authority, recognizing that He is actively gathering His people from all nations for His glory.

This sermon explores the theological tension between present suffering and future glory as described in Romans 8, emphasizing that both creation and believers groan under the weight of the curse and personal weakness. The central message asserts that the Holy Spirit intercedes for believers in their inability to pray perfectly, while the Father executes a sovereign plan to conform them to the image of His Son. The preacher highlights the certainty of this predestined path, arguing that glorification is so assured it can be viewed as already accomplished, thereby securing the believer against condemnation. By contrasting the reality of the curse with the hope of redemption, the teaching encourages a posture of hopeful endurance rather than despair, affirming that nothing can separate the faithful from the love of God. The tone is pastoral and instructional, aiming to provide comfort and clarity regarding the security of the believer amidst life's struggles.

This sermon addresses the spiritual dangers of neglecting faith and maintaining a clear conscience, using the apostle Paul's charge to Timothy as a foundational text. The message warns that believers risk spiritual shipwreck if they allow bitterness and resentment to take root in their hearts, particularly in response to hurtful events or the actions of others. It emphasizes that while resentment is a natural human reaction, it is a destructive force that defiles the community and grieves the Holy Spirit. The preacher presents forgiveness not as an emotional state but as a deliberate act of will, enabled by the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit, who provides both the desire and the power to live a godly life. By illustrating the transformative power of releasing bitterness through personal testimony and scriptural instruction, the sermon calls for a decisive commitment to trust in Christ and extend the same complete forgiveness that believers have received.

A pastor presents Solomon as a model of godly husbandhood and a picture of Christ. But what about Solomon's 700 wives and 300 concubines? We examine a sermon on Song of Solomon 3, challenge its interpretation, and ask whether the preacher's beautiful picture ignores some very uncomfortable biblical facts.

This sermon explores Psalm 2 as a Messianic psalm that reveals the conflict between the nations' rebellion and God's sovereign response. The message identifies the central tension as the world's futile plotting against the Lord and His anointed, contrasted with the Father's laughter and the installation of Christ as the eternal King on Zion. It affirms the doctrine of Christ's eternal sonship, explaining that the Father's declaration of the Son is an unchanging decree that predates creation. The preacher calls the audience to recognize their position in this cosmic drama, urging them to make themselves wise by submitting to Christ's authority. The final appeal is a warning to those who reject the King and a comfort to those who take refuge in Him, emphasizing that salvation is found only in embracing the Son.

This sermon examines Solomon's deliberate experiment with pleasure in Ecclesiastes 2, analyzing why his pursuit of joy through laughter, wine, and material wealth ultimately resulted in futility. The message argues that earthly pleasures cannot provide an escape from life's difficulties, nor can possessions recreate a perfect paradise, as they remain infected by sin and the brokenness of the world. By highlighting Solomon's failure to find profit in his highest achievements, the text demonstrates that placing excessive value on temporal happiness leads to misery rather than fulfillment. The preacher emphasizes that while pleasure is a gift from God, it must not be expected to cure the fundamental brokenness of human existence. True and lasting happiness is found only in Christ, who offers the eternal profit that earthly pursuits cannot provide.

This sermon examines the missionary journey of Paul and Barnabas as recorded in Acts 14, highlighting the consistent opposition they faced from both Jewish and Gentile communities. The central message emphasizes that the true relationship with God is founded strictly on His grace rather than human works, and that faithful preaching of the Word inevitably invites resistance. The text explores the theological implications of Paul's resurrection after being stoned, suggesting a profound spiritual encounter, while contrasting the humility of true ministers with the self-aggrandizement of modern religious figures. The preacher argues that entering the kingdom of God requires enduring tribulation, and that the early church's success was built on the sacrificial lives of its leaders who remained steadfast despite persecution. The lesson concludes with a call for spiritual confirmation and the importance of divinely appointed leadership in the church, warning against the dangers of ungodly ministry and the closing door of faith in a hostile world.

This sermon examines the narrative of Nabal and Abigail in 1 Samuel 25, contrasting the husband's stubbornness and evil deeds with his wife's wisdom and understanding. The preacher highlights how Nabal's harshness mirrors the stiff-necked behavior of Israel described in Judges, serving as a warning against suppressing known truth and acting in self-righteous vengeance. In response to Nabal's insult, David prepares for retribution, but Abigail intervenes with humility and provision, successfully averting bloodshed and demonstrating the power of wise counsel. The passage concludes with the Lord striking Nabal, illustrating that divine judgment is certain and operates on God's timing rather than human initiative. Ultimately, the sermon points to Christ as the greater David who endured revilement without retaliation, encouraging believers to trust in God's justice and avoid taking vengeance into their own hands.

This sermon examines the prohibition against consuming animal blood in Genesis 9:4, arguing that this command reflects the sacredness of life and humanity's subjection to God's sovereignty. The text traces this theme through the Mosaic Law and into the New Testament, emphasizing that blood serves as the means of atonement and not material for human consumption. The central theological point is that while animal blood pointed to the need for a substitute, it ultimately foreshadows the superior sacrifice of Jesus Christ. The preacher highlights that Christ's blood, speaks of mercy and forgiveness rather than vengeance, offering the only true redemption for sinners. The message concludes with a call to recognize the supreme value of Christ's atoning work as the foundation of salvation.
