Sermon on John 11, Blake McKinney, Assistant Professor of History and Humanities at Texas Baptist College
Because Jesus is all-powerful Lord of all, we must bring our powerlessness to Him and trust in Him for the mighty works only He can do in vanquishing evil. I. We Must Face the Demons and Desperation in the Valley vv 14-16 II. We Must Face the Powerlessness of Unbelief in the Face of the Mighty Power of Jesus vv 17-18 III. We must Turn from Our Faulty Self-Focused Faith to a Full Trust in Christ Alone! vv 19-23

What a joy it is to witness lives transformed by Christ, as we saw in last week's baptisms. There's nothing quite like seeing someone profess faith and begin a new journey with Jesus. But as we walk this gospel-centered life, we must be aware of the saboteurs that threaten our faith. Often, we look outward—at the world, the flesh, or the devil—but the greatest saboteur is often the person staring back at us in the mirror. We sabotage our own faith when we add anything to Christ, rely on our religious resume, or allow our past to define us.Paul's words in Philippians 3 challenge us to examine what we truly value. He counted all his achievements, heritage, and religious credentials as garbage compared to the infinite value of knowing Christ. The language he uses is intentionally strong—everything else is not just less important, but utterly worthless, like refuse, when compared to Jesus. This is a call to radical reorientation: to let go of anything we think commends us to God, and to cling to Christ alone.There are those who would try to add requirements to the gospel—Christ plus baptism, Christ plus tongues, Christ plus church attendance or giving. Paul calls these “dogs,” not as a term of endearment, but as a warning against those who would mutilate the gospel and burden believers with legalism. Salvation is not Christ plus anything; it is Christ alone. Even our best efforts, our spiritual resumes, and our good deeds cannot earn us favor with God. They are, as Isaiah says, like filthy rags.But perhaps you don't struggle with legalism or spiritual pride. Maybe your saboteur is your past—shame, regret, or a sense of unworthiness. Paul, who persecuted the church and carried deep scars from his past, reminds us that God's love is greater than our failures. The call is to forget what is behind and press on toward what lies ahead, knowing that our citizenship is in heaven, secured by Christ alone. Our past is not a barrier; it is garbage, discarded in light of the resurrection power of Jesus.In the end, our only passport to heaven is Jesus. Everything else—our achievements, our failures, our attempts to add to the gospel—is worthless. Let go of the garbage, and hold fast to Christ, who alone is of infinite value.Youtube Chapters[00:00] - Welcome[01:07] - Celebrating Baptisms and New Life[01:57] - The Saboteurs of Faith: An Introduction[03:26] - A Story of Sabotaged Projects[06:16] - Who Really Sabotages Our Faith?[07:06] - The Parable of the Soils: The Role of the Heart[09:17] - What Do We Value?

In a world that insists there are many paths to God, Jesus speaks with breathtaking clarity: "I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life; no one comes to the Father except through Me." These are not words of exclusion, but of astonishing grace — that there is a way at all! In this passage, Jesus steadies trembling hearts and invites His followers into the deepest comfort imaginable: not merely a place called Heaven, but the very presence of the Father Himself. Come and behold the beauty of Christ, the only Way home — exclusive in His claim, but gloriously inclusive in His mercy.

Being a witness doesn't mean you have to stand on a stage or preach to crowds. God invites each of us to simply share what He has done in our lives. When we talk about His grace, His faithfulness, or the ways He's changed us, we let others see Him through our story. Witnessing is personal, honest, and natural. It flows out of a life transformed by Christ. Today, Pastor Bill will explore how you have the privilege of pointing others to Jesus by sharing the truth of God's work in your own heart.

It's easy to see the Bible as a collection of old letters or ancient stories, but it's so much more than that. Every page carries a personal message from God to you. The words that guided, corrected, and encouraged people thousands of years ago still speak into our lives today. Today, Pastor Bill will reveal to you that when you open Scripture, God meets you where you are, with wisdom, comfort, and direction. It's not just history or literature; it's His living Word reaching deep into your heart.

Listening to a sermon or watching an online teaching can be refreshing, but it's like sipping from a cup someone else has poured; you're only tasting what they've passed along. Reading the Bible for yourself is drinking straight from the spring, letting God's living water flow directly into your life. Pastor Bill will encourage you today to engage Scripture personally and experience its life-giving truth, clarity, and refreshment in a way secondhand teachings can't provide. Let His living water nourish you.

Today we're kicking off a brand-new series in Colossians called Christ Alone. Life is loud, and it's easy to get pulled in a thousand directions—but this series points us back to what truly anchors us: Jesus. Not Jesus plus achievements or approval—just Christ alone.Support the show
In Christ Jesus, you were chosen by God before creation.In Christ alone, you are chosen.In Christ, each of us has everything we need for spiritual well-being.Our purpose is to be set apart and blameless sacrifices dedicated to God's purpose.We have been chosen to be coheirs with Christ.In Christ, all have been chosen. But not all respond in faith.This choosing, saving, and adoption accomplished through Jesus should result in our praise of God.Our faith is sealed with the Spirit.Ephesians 1:3-14
A Heart for Christ Alone
Thank you for listening to this episode!
In Christ Jesus, you were given grace before the world was created.Salvation is a completed act, born from grace. Grace is not a merit-based system.It's only through the grace of Christ that anyone can be saved.Sin entered the world and death became possible.Jesus came to Earth for one purpose: to destroy death.Through Christ and Christ only, we receive grace, which is undeserved life in the face of deserved death.We need grace to ensure that we aren't defined by our worst moments.God's power shines through our weaknesses.God may not change your circumstances. But through grace, he can change your perspective on your circumstances.Christ is grace.The law magnifies your sin. The Master moves you past it.2 Timothy 1:9-10, Ephesians 2:8-10, Romans 8:28, Romans 5:12, 1 Corinthians 15:25-26, 1 Peter 1:3-4, Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23a, 2 Corinthians 12:9-10, Exodus 33:18-19, John 1:16-17, John 8:53-54, John 4:12-14, Titus 2:11, John 14:6-7, James 4:6, John 6:14
