The post Have you blasphemed the Holy Spirit? No, you haven’t. I’ll tell you why. appeared first on Key Life.
What happens when evil disguises itself as virtue—and how can you discern the difference between true godliness and counterfeit righteousness? In Episode 7 of "The Mystery of Godliness," Duane Sheriff exposes the dangerous deception of "a form of godliness" that appears moral on the outside but rejects the very power that transforms lives. Drawing from 2 Timothy 3, he reveals how false religion, cultural ideologies, and spiritual deception imitate righteousness while denying the power of the cross, the gospel, and the Holy Spirit. True godliness is not outward virtue signaling or human effort—it is the supernatural work of Christ in us.Duane contrasts false forms of righteousness with the genuine power believers receive through the gospel: the cross as God's wisdom, the gospel as God's saving power, and the Holy Spirit as the One who empowers holy living. This message equips believers to recognize deception in the last days, where evil masquerades as righteousness, and to stand firm in the transforming truth of God's Word.Click for FREE offer ➡️https://pastorduane.com/landing/the-mystery-of-godliness/

“Freedom isn't permanent, and it depends on who's willing to fight for it.” Abteen Vaziri “The biggest victims of radical Islam are Muslims.” “I have a duty not only to save America, but to save Germany, because Germany saved me.” "Iranians are not going to be quiet." In this powerful episode of Better Call Daddy, host Reena Friedman Watts sits down with political commentator, entrepreneur, and activist Abteen Vaziri for an eye-opening conversation about escaping Iran, confronting radical ideology, finding faith, and fighting for the American Dream. Born into a family fleeing the oppressive Islamic regime in Iran, Abteen shares the sacrifices his parents made to build a life in America. In one of the episode's most emotional moments, he reflects on his father — a man who rarely used his voice — and the powerful “why” behind leaving everything behind in search of freedom. From growing up Muslim to converting to Christianity, Abteen opens up about identity, faith, censorship, political activism, and why he believes more Iranian Americans must speak out against radicalism. He also discusses immigration, entrepreneurship through the EB-5 visa industry, cancel culture, and the dangers of extremism both abroad and in the United States. This episode dives deep into freedom, resilience, family legacy, and what it truly means to protect the American Dream. In This Episode: Escaping Iran and starting over in America The emotional story behind Abteen's father's silence From Islam to Christianity: Abteen's faith journey Fighting radicalism and political extremism Iranian-American identity and cultural pressure The American Dream and why freedom matters Immigration, entrepreneurship, and political activism Why more Iranian Americans are entering politics Episode Highlights: (00:00) Welcome to Better Call Daddy (05:15) Abteen Vaziri's journey from Iran to America (15:30) Why Iranian Americans need political representation (25:00) The story behind his father's sacrifice and silence (35:45) Radicalism, free speech, and the political climate (45:00) Faith, freedom, and final thoughts on the American Dream If you've ever wondered what people risk for freedom — or how one family's escape from Iran shaped a new generation of outspoken activists — this is an episode you won't forget.

What if the reason so many struggle to live a godly life isn't a lack of desire—but a misunderstanding of where true power comes from? In Episode 6 of The Mystery of Godliness, Duane Sheriff teaches that godliness is not something we achieve independently but is produced by God's power at work within us. As he states, "We cannot…be holy, independent of God's power.” Unlike the world and religion that attempt goodness without God, Christianity offers genuine transformation through the cross, the gospel, and the Holy Spirit.Duane explains that while the world has "a form of godliness," it denies the very power that makes change possible. In contrast, believers are called to embrace and celebrate that power—Christ living in us, producing holiness as a fruit, not a performance. Through Scripture, he unpacks how the mystery once hidden is now revealed: Christ in you, the hope of glory. Discover how to stop striving—and start living from the power already within you.

Welcome to Day 2854 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2854 – “He is Risen Indeed!” based on 1 Corinthians 15:20-23 Putnam Church Message – 04/05/2026 Resurrection Sunday – “He is Risen Indeed!” Last week's message was: “Behold He Comes!” This covered the entire Passion Week, with the launching point of Zechariah 9:9 Today, our focus is on Resurrection Sunday. Today's message is: “He is Risen Indeed!” We will celebrate the resurrected Christ and the assurance we have in the salvation that He brings. Our core verses this week are 1 Corinthians 15:3-4, 20-23 3 I passed on to you what was most important and what had also been passed on to me. Christ died for our sins, just as the Scriptures said. 4 He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, just as the Scriptures said. 20 But in fact, Christ has been raised from the dead. He is the first of a great harvest of all who have died. 21 So you see, just as death came into the world through a man, now the resurrection from the dead has begun through another man. 22 Just as everyone dies because we all belong to Adam, everyone who belongs to Christ will be given new life. 23 But there is an order to this resurrection: Christ was raised as the first of the harvest; then all who belong to Christ will be raised when he comes back. Opening Prayer Father in heaven, on this Resurrection Sunday, we come with gratitude, wonder, and praise. Open our eyes to see the glory of Your Son. Open our hearts to receive the power of the empty tomb. For those who are joyful, deepen their joy. For those who are weary, strengthen their faith. For those who are grieving, breathe hope again. For those who are uncertain, make the truth of Christ's resurrection clear and living. May this not be just a familiar holiday to us, but a holy encounter with the risen Lord. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen. Introduction This morning our message is titled: “He Is Risen Indeed!” That is more than a phrase. It is more than a tradition. It is more than a beautiful greeting to exchange on Easter morning. Across the centuries, believers in many lands have greeted one another with words like these: “Christ is risen!” - “He is risen indeed!” Why has the church loved that greeting so much? Because Easter is not simply about springtime, flowers, new grass, warmer days, or the turning of the seasons. Easter is not the church's way of saying, “Things will probably get better.” Easter is not vague optimism. Easter is not religious cheerfulness. Easter is the declaration that Jesus Christ, who was crucified, buried, and mourned, has bodily risen from the dead. That changes everything. The four Gospels all testify to this glorious truth. Matthew tells us about the earthquake, the angel, and the guards' fear. Mark emphasizes the shock and amazement of the women at the tomb. Luke draws us into the confusion, the angelic reminder, and the burning hearts on the Emmaus Road. John gives us the intimacy of Mary Magdalene in the garden, Peter and John running to the tomb, and the risen Christ calling His sheep by name. Each Gospel brings its own emphasis, but together they proclaim one great truth: The tomb is empty because Jesus is alive. And because He is alive, we do not merely have a memory to cherish. We have a Savior to trust, a Lord to follow, and a living hope to sustain us. Main Point 1: The Resurrection Is a Real Event, Not a Religious Idea At the center of Easter is not a mood, but a miracle. Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark or just at dawn, the women came to the tomb. That detail matters. They were not coming to celebrate a victory. They were coming to mourn a death. They brought spices. They expected a sealed grave. They were not looking for resurrection. They were looking for a body. That is why the empty tomb startled them so deeply. Matthew says the stone was rolled away. Mark says they wondered who would move the stone. Luke says they found the stone rolled away and did not find the body. John says Mary Magdalene saw the stone had been moved and ran to tell the disciples. This is not the language of people inventing a legend to comfort themselves. This is the language of startled witnesses who encountered something unexpected. Expanded Narrative In the first-century Jewish world, burial mattered deeply. Graves were places of finality. Bodies were wrapped, laid to rest, and mourned. A large stone meant closure. For Jewish families, proper burial was an act of honor and reverence. No one visited a tomb on the third day expecting a loved one to walk out. That is what makes Easter morning so startling. The women go in sorrow, not anticipation. Peter runs in confusion. John stoops and sees the linen wrappings lying there. Mary stands outside weeping, thinking someone has taken the Lord away. This is not fantasy. This is eyewitness faith born out of astonishment. And the church, that matters because Christianity stands or falls on this. If Christ has not been raised, then our faith is empty. But if He has been raised, then everything He said is true, everything He accomplished on the cross is complete, and everything He promised is secure. Illustration Sometimes people want Easter to mean only that “hope rises” in a poetic sense. But that is like saying a check is valuable because it is beautifully written, even if there is no money in the account. The beauty of the words means little without the reality behind them. The power of Easter is not that it sounds inspiring. The power of Easter lies in the fact that it happened. Object Lesson Bring a sealed envelope and an open envelope. Say: “A sealed envelope means the message is still hidden. But an opened envelope means the message has been revealed. The tomb was sealed, but on Easter morning it was opened. God was declaring to the world that His Son had conquered death.” Related Scriptures 1 Corinthians 15:14, 17 – If Christ has not been raised, our faith is useless. Psalm 16:10 – God would not allow His Holy One to rot in the grave. Acts 2:24 – It was impossible for death to keep its hold on Him. Romans 1:4 – Jesus was shown to be the Son of God in power by His resurrection from the dead. Summary of Main Point 1 Easter is not built on religious imagination but on a real, historical resurrection. The empty tomb, the startled witnesses, and the transformed disciples all point to the same conclusion: Jesus truly rose from the dead. Our faith is not resting on symbolism alone, but on a risen Savior. Main Point 2: The Resurrection Gives Us a Living Hope Peter writes in 1 Peter 1:3: "All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ." It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, A better phrase is this: a living hope. Not a dead hope. Not a faint hope. Not a wishful hope. Not a seasonal hope. A living hope. Why is it living? Because it is tied to a living Christ. If Jesus were only a memory, then hope would eventually fade into sentiment. But because Jesus is alive, hope lives too. Expanded Narrative Peter knew what he was talking about. He had failed Jesus publicly. He had denied Him three times. He had wept bitterly. By Friday night, Peter's courage was gone. By Saturday, his hope must have felt shattered. But then came Sunday morning. Then came the empty tomb. Then came the risen Christ. The man who once cowered before a servant girl would later stand and preach Christ boldly. Why? Because the resurrection changed him. And Peter later wrote to believers who were suffering. They were not living easy lives. They were facing pressure, hardship, misunderstanding, and persecution. Peter did not tell them to pretend life was simple. He did not tell them to smile more and think positively. He pointed them to the resurrection. That is Christian realism. The New Testament does not deny trouble. It...

What if the key to real joy, peace, and lasting fulfillment isn't found in striving for more—but in discovering what God has already provided?In Episode 5 of "The Mystery of Godliness," Duane Sheriff confronts our modern obsession with physical fitness, dietary extremes, and material prosperity, reminding us that while bodily exercise has some value, godliness is profitable in all things—both in this life and the life to come. True happiness is not rooted in possessions, performance, or even discipline alone, but in understanding the mystery of godliness and the gospel itself.Through 1 Timothy, Duane explains that while natural things like exercise and provision have their place, they cannot compare to the eternal value of godliness. This message challenges common misconceptions about holiness, prosperity, and purpose, revealing that godliness is not a means of gain—but a life transformed by Christ in us.Discover how to exercise yourself in godliness, walk in true contentment, and experience the fruit of holiness—not through human effort, but through the power of the gospel at work within you.Click for FREE offer ➡️https://pastorduane.com/landing/the-mystery-of-godliness/

Is the Bible really good—or have we misunderstood it? Many people walk away from Christianity after reading the Bible for themselves. But what if the issue isn't the Bible… it's how we've been taught to read it? In this episode of Truth Changes Everything, we sit down with John Marriott and Shawn Wicks, co-authors of Is It Really the Good Book?, to tackle one of the most important—and challenging—questions facing faith today: Is the Bible actually good? Together, we explore why doubt often begins with faulty assumptions about Scripture, how to approach difficult passages without losing faith, and why understanding the Bible in its proper context changes everything. If you've ever wrestled with questions about the Bible—or know someone who has—this conversation is for you.

We picture Constantine as the man who saved Rome — the cross in the sky, Christianity rising, an empire reborn. But when you actually look at what happened, it doesn't read like a rescue. It reads like a transfer of control.This is the story of how Constantine inherited Diocletian's machine, redirected it, and built something new on top of the old structure — without ever appearing to dismantle it. The most dangerous takeover isn't when someone tears down a system. It's when they keep it running, change what it serves, and call the change salvation.In this episode we walk through Diocletian's administrative empire, the fracturing of the Tetrarchy, Milvian Bridge and what Constantine actually saw at that moment, the Edict of Milan as empowerment rather than tolerance, the founding of Constantinople, and the slow drift of resources and power eastward while the West kept functioning — until it didn't.The pattern Constantine demonstrated is one we keep seeing repeated.

"Did you know that the mysteries of God are literally hidden for our glory?" What if the very things that transform your life were never hidden from you—but intentionally hidden for you? In Episode 4 of "The Mystery of Godliness," Duane Sheriff reveals that the gospel is a divine mystery—God's plan for complete deliverance—once concealed from the powers of darkness but now revealed to believers. This mystery, described in 1 Timothy 3:16, unfolds the full scope of Christ's work: His incarnation, resurrection, and ascension, all working together to produce godliness in us.Duane emphasizes that this hidden wisdom was designed for our glory. Had Satan understood it, he would never have crucified Jesus. Through the cross and resurrection, God ended the old creation and birthed a new one—placing Christ within us. Discover how "Christ in you, the hope of glory" is not just a concept, but a present reality that empowers transformation, renews your mind, and equips you to live a victorious, godly life.Click for FREE offer ➡️https://pastorduane.com/landing/the-mystery-of-godliness/

Whether it's in the Garden of Eden, Egypt, the wilderness, or a mountainside near the Sea of Galilee, God knows how to provide for His people. Let's learn about the tables and meals in Scripture.Receive How lovely that the story of God happens around tables. From the farm-to-table picnic of lavish eating in the Garden of Eden, to the “fast food,” rushed meal during the first Passover, to God's provision in the wilderness of heavenly food, on into the New Testament servings of a simple lunch to feed thousands, God delights in providing for His people.

Jon Harris examines the state of the American church in 2026 — a time of spiritual interest among Gen Z, rising Bible sales, and public figures talking about Christianity, yet mixed with confusion, pastoral failures, and the risk of counterfeit revival. Drawing from statistics, personal reflections, and Scripture, Jon calls Christians to stand faithfully with the true church, prioritize the gospel, and focus on making disciples rather than platforms or politics. A sober yet hopeful message for believers navigating this cultural moment. 0:00 Introduction & Prayer1:40 Convictions: The Church Will Prevail4:20 Suspicions: Spiritual Awakening or Counterfeit?7:15 What Confuses Me – Loss of Key Leaders10:45 Statistics on Gen Z & Religious Interest13:50 Signs of True Revival – Church Growth, Pastors, Giving16:40 The Pastor Problem & Political Temptation22:30 Celebrity “Conversions” & Cultural Christianity27:15 Dangers of Theological Softening32:40 Real Hope – People Are Open to the Gospel37:50 Practical Pastoral Wisdom43:20 The Road to Emmaus – Walking by Faith49:30 Closing: Next Steps for the Church Our Sponsors:* Check out Mars Men: https://mengotomars.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/conversations-that-matter8971/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
