Justin Peters examines Jack Graham's congratulatory message to Benny Hinn in light of Scripture's commands concerning false teaching and pastoral responsibility. Reviewing archival investigations, healing claims, and prosperity gospel fundraising appeals, Justin explains why public endorsements matter. From Romans 16:17–18, 2 John 9–11, Titus 1:9, and 1 Timothy 5:22, he calls Christians to test teaching by God's Word and pastors to protect their congregations through sound doctrine.

In this Psalm 1 sermon, Pastor Richard Caldwell preaches The Way of Prosperity & The Way That Perishes Pt. 2 on the righteous and the wicked. The first Psalm serves as a gateway to the Psalter by dividing all of humanity into two distinct categories. God recognizes people by their manner of living, comparing the fruit of a righteous person to a tree firmly planted by streams of water. True believers are marked by their sincere love for God and their genuine delight in His inerrant Word. In contrast, the unredeemed are described as chaff driven away by the wind. They walk in the counsel of the ungodly and have no fellowship with the truth or the community of the saints. Ultimately, their rebellion against the final authority of Scripture leaves them without hope at the final judgment. True wisdom is found only in the law of the Lord and salvation by grace through faith in Christ alone. As we examine the inevitable destinies of these two paths, we are called to evaluate our own hearts. God preserves the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will end in eternal destruction. Key Biblical Takeaways: - True spiritual joy and blessedness belong exclusively to those whose sins are forgiven and who take refuge in God. - A righteous life is evidenced by a deep, enduring delight in the Word of God that shapes daily meditation and produces lasting spiritual fruit. - The wicked are completely separated from God and His people, living a life that ultimately amounts to worthless chaff with no eternal substance. - Every human life ends in one of two guaranteed destinies: everlasting fruitfulness and preservation by God, or eternal destruction and banishment.

This sermon explores the theme of God's absolute sovereignty and almighty power, anchored in the declaration from Ecclesiastes that where the word of a king is, there is power. It addresses the human struggle with uncertainty and the apparent prosperity of the wicked by asserting that all events unfold according to God's eternal plan and purpose. The text highlights key theological concepts such as divine election, the gathering of all things in Christ, and the incomprehensible greatness of God's might, illustrated through references to Daniel, Romans, and Ephesians. The tone is pastoral and comforting, encouraging believers to trust in God's control over history and their personal salvation, rather than relying on earthly understanding. Ultimately, the message affirms that God's power is beyond measure, ensuring the fulfillment of His redemptive will for His people.

(Sunday Service) The Gospel of Glory Philippians 3:17-21: "Brothers, join in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk according to the example you have in us. For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, walk as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things. But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.."

The second of a two part message, preaching on the right type of worship by the upright man.

What does Amos 6 teach us about the dangers of arrogance and prosperity? Israel's leaders were living in luxury, trusting in their wealth, military strength, and political influence rather than in God. They had become self-absorbed, indifferent to injustice, and convinced that divine judgment was far off. But God reminds them of once-great cities that had fallen and warns that their own destruction and captivity are certain. This lesson examines how arrogance leads to self-deception, why prosperity can be a greater test than adversity, and how God's righteous judgment follows generations of gracious warnings to seek Him and live.

Christianity built peaceful and prosperous societies – but where it disappears, barbed wire fences and barred windows return. Following their trip to South Africa, Kevin Swanson and Bill Jack discuss how far down this road the US is. Are we far behind South Africa? They talk about… - The possibility of civil war or secession over abortion, with southern states challenging liberal state "shield" laws that protect kill-pill providers, like laws protecting slave traders… - What studies show about the importance of these issues in the minds of Republicans and Democrats – and how those for evil are much more passionate about it than those against… - The recent Satanic prayer to open a city council meeting in Iowa, ending with "Hail Satan." Will this kind of thing force Christians to finally stand for Christ in the public square? - How the origin of all these evils can be traced through the common thread of state education…and what Christians will have to do to reverse the situation.

This sermon concludes the book of Acts by examining Paul's arrival in Malta and his subsequent journey to Rome, highlighting the contrast between genuine apostolic ministry and modern false teachings. The speaker emphasizes that Paul's miracles, such as shaking off a viper and healing Publius's father, were acts of divine power rather than results of human faith or financial transactions, thereby exposing the greed of contemporary prosperity preachers. The narrative shifts to Paul's arrival in Rome, where he is granted the liberty to preach the Kingdom of God to both Jews and Gentiles. The text underscores the importance of meekness, defined as a balance of firmness and gentleness, and the necessity of maintaining a healthy fellowship with God's people rather than isolating oneself. Ultimately, the sermon presents Paul's two years in Rome as a model of confident, unceasing evangelism, where the message of Jesus Christ is proclaimed with clarity despite mixed responses from the audience.

What if the abundant life Jesus promised has less to do with what you can get and more to do with what you plant? Every fall, Quentin Road Baptist Church begins a two-part First Fruits series about trusting God with the first and the best of what He gives us, and it starts with the story of a man who believed in a seed. In this message from the series First Fruits, Pastor Jim Scudder at Quentin Road Baptist Church opens with Johnny Appleseed, then walks through Paul's thank-you to the church at Philippi. Step by step in Philippians 4:10-19, he shows how mindfulness brings opportunity, opportunity brings flourishment, flourishment brings strength, strength brings action, and action brings sweetness and satisfaction, all the way to the promise that "my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus." This is not the prosperity gospel. It is a call to see God at work in a real way and to learn, at any age, to live by faith with open hands. Scripture referenced: Philippians 4:10; Matthew 10:8; John 15:8; Philippians 4:11-12; Philippians 4:13; Amos 9:13; Philippians 4:14-16; Psalms 1:3; Philippians 4:17-18; Song of Songs 2:3; Philippians 4:19; Psalms 126:5-6; 2 Corinthians 9:6; Romans 5:15

Main Points 1. God judges rebellion with destruction and death. 2. God brings resurrection and life to those who repent and believe in Him. This sermon examines God's judgment against Israel's rebellion and idolatry in Hosea 13, contrasting the nation's former prominence with its spiritual decline and coming destruction. Despite God's faithful provision and repeated warnings, His people forgot Him in their prosperity, turned to false gods, and placed their confidence in human rulers rather than their only Savior. Through vivid images of wild animals, childbirth, and death, the passage reveals the seriousness of sin and the consequences of refusing to repent. Yet even in this dark chapter, there is hope. God promises to demonstrate His power over death, pointing toward Israel's future restoration and the ultimate victory over death through Jesus Christ. The sermon concludes with an invitation for unbelievers to repent and trust in Christ for salvation and for wandering believers to return to God and experience His forgiveness and restoration.

God's thoughts and ways are much higher and better than our thoughts and ways!
