Podcasts about Condemnation

For those who are yet unconvinced about the birth of Jesus, becoming one of us and our Savior, Pastor Al Dagel encourages us to stop pondering the message of salvation and act on what we now know. and be saved by God's wonderful grace. 

Merry Christmas from Pastor Al Dagel and the GraceMode Board of Directors and missions staff!  Today, Pastor Al gives some tender advice regarding others at Christmastime.

On this week's episode of Economic Update, Professor Wolff provides an analysis of "globalization" as a fancy slogan to hide a profit-driven, profit-boosting period (1970-2015) that saw US capitalists move factories abroad. It destroyed so many well-paid factory jobs (especially of white, male Christians) that it produced massive suffering among the affected communities. As their rage built and both Republican and Democratic politicians turned a blind eye to their suffering, right-wing politicians saw an opportunity. Find a candidate really different from the old Republican and Democratic establishments - a Trump - and have him express the rage, anger, and bitterness of those who had lost the American Dream. Trump blamed globalization, foreigners in general, immigrants in particular, liberals, and Democrats: all lumped into "globalists," a term that changed from celebration to total evil. Conveniently for the leaders of major US corporations - the people who had actually made the decisions to move production abroad and profited from that escaped from Trump's blame. Now he promises to lead them to more profits by switching back to economic nationalism. But like globalization, it will prove profitable for the same corporations now as it did before. America First will hide the suffering it imposes every bit as much as globalization did. Capitalism is the problem.   The d@w Team Economic Update with Richard D.

How do we live above the voice of condemnation?The truth is, we have all sinned and fallen short. We have all done things we should not have, and as a result, the voice of condemnation can sound very convincing. Yet, the Bible tells us that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ. His life and love set us free from the power of sin and death. So how do we stop listening to condemnation and start living in the freedom Jesus died to give us? Join Matt Swords and Jim Ehrman as they talk about tools for overcoming the spirit of condemnation in our lives. 

Pastor Dustin Maddox continues our Advent series with a sermon from Matthew 1:18-25, taking lessons from Joseph on how we can follow God and be present with those around us through crisis and controversy. Sermon originally recorded on December 21st, 2025.

Since Hamas launched its assault on October 7th, 2023, the group has become synonymous with evil in large parts of the Western media. Condemnation has come at the expense of critical engagement with the group's actions, objectives, and history, leaving a vacuum that has been filled with racist assumptions and conspiracy theories.

Advent reminds us that our hope is not in our performance, but in Christ's. The law reveals our need; the gospel gives us assurance. In Jesus, the verdict is already secure - justified by faith, not by works.

Today, Pastor Al Dagel brings an illustration that may help those who wonder if the work of Christ is enough, making their own good works unable to improve on their security in Christ.

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our series on the women found in Jesus's genealogy.As we move deeper into the Advent season, we often focus on the joy and anticipation of Christmas. But the truth is, the reason Christ came into the world was that it was dark, broken, and desperate for a Savior.This week we arrive at one of the most disheartening stories in the entire lineage of Jesus: the story of Bathsheba. It's a story that's difficult to even talk about, as we see a Biblical hero fail in a monumental way. But it's also a story of hope, as we see how God in His incredible plan works through even stories of abuse, tragedy, and silent pain, to bring redemption and to invite us into the greater story that he is writing.If you're feeling the pressure, the anxiety, or the brokenness of this season—if you're wondering where your "great story" is—this message is for you. Join us as we learn what it means to truly long for the coming of Christ to turn our broken stories into truly great ones.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on December 14, 2025, at 9:30am.

Today, Pastor Al Dagel takes us back to the beginning, as he brings some basic teaching to us from the Book of Genesis.

I know you've felt like, in the past, you've been hesitant to share your true feelings and beliefs. Maybe you didn't want to offend that woman you were pursuing. Or, maybe you didn't want to upset your boss and run the risk of losing your job. Or, maybe you were afraid of what society or social media would say if you shared your true thoughts. My guest today, Father Stephen Gadberry, is familiar with all of that in a way that many of us relate with. As a Catholic priest, US Air Force Veteran, and American Ninja Warrior competitor, he knows how compelling public criticism can become. Today, Father Gadberry and I talk about discipline, what "turning the other cheek," really means, how to handle false accusations, what true accountability actually means, the difference between your "vocation," and "occupation," and how God will speak to all of us.

Living free from condemnation! Romans 8 reminds us that God doesn't label us by our past—only He gets to name us, and He calls us His. When we stop trying to live in our own strength and surrender our lives and minds to Christ, our focus shifts and our lives start to look different. The evidence of a changed heart? A life being changed by Jesus. He lives in us, and He's the one doing the transforming

Josiah Armstrong

I. Introduction: The Word and the theme “Wake Up” Exaltation of the Bible as the believer's foundation over feelings or worship experiences.​ Personal stories about people falling asleep in church and a college roommate's alarm to introduce the “wake up” motif.​ Transition from physical sleep to the real concern: spiritual sleep.​ II. Main Text: Romans 13:11–14 Reading and emphasizing Paul's call to “awake out of sleep” because salvation is nearer than when believers first believed.​ Call to cast off works of darkness, put on the armor of light, walk properly, and “put on the Lord Jesus Christ,” making no provision for the flesh.​ III. Paul's Three Challenges A. Be aware of the times Explanation of “high time” as a critical, urgent moment requiring spiritual discernment.​ Biblical examples: Jerusalem missing its “time of visitation” in Luke 19; churches of Ephesus (lost first love) and Laodicea (lukewarm).​ Need for discernment of seasons (sowing vs. reaping), people, political and social issues, illustrated by the tribe of Issachar (understanding of the times).​ Description of last days from 2 Timothy 3 (lovers of self, money, pleasure, form of godliness without power), applied to modern culture and social media.​ B. Awake out of spiritual sleep Warning that Christians can be physically awake but spiritually asleep, citing Ephesians 5:14.​ Signs of spiritual slumber: indifference to Bible, preaching, giving, serving, holiness; callousness and hardness of heart.​ Testimony of a church member who realized he had been spiritually asleep, plus repeated calls: “Wake up the mighty men/women” (Joel 3:9).​ Example of Samson: great anointing lost after being lulled to sleep by Delilah, leading to loss of sight, power, and discernment; warning from 1 Peter 5:8 to be sober and vigilant.​ C. Be arrayed in the armor of light Explanation of “arrayed” as putting on, dressing, and clothing oneself with Christ and His righteousness.​ Pastoral explanation of preaching strongly against sin out of love and responsibility to proclaim the whole counsel of God.​ IV. Six Sins to “Put Off” (from Romans 13) Revelry and drunkenness Defined as wild parties, nightclubs, casinos; warning that alcohol and exposed flesh create moral danger.​ Strong appeal against social drinking and minimizing drunkenness, noting family damage caused by alcohol.​ Licentiousness and lewdness Defined as sexual immorality and debauchery; teaching that sex is for the marriage covenant only.​ Condemnation of fornication, adultery, pornography, and cohabitation outside marriage, with logical and biblical arguments.​ Strife and envy Mentioned with the other sins as attitudes and behaviors that must be cast off to walk properly.​ V. Biblical Foundation for Repentance and Transformation Reading of 1 Corinthians 6:9–11: list of sins (fornication, idolatry, adultery, homosexuality, drunkenness, etc.) that exclude from God's kingdom, followed by hope in being washed, sanctified, and justified.​ Emphasis that no sin is beyond God's power to forgive and transform, but believers must repent and turn from it.​ VI. “Put on the Lord Jesus Christ” and Make No Provision for the Flesh Definition of “make provision” as providing, accommodating, or facilitating opportunities for the flesh.​ Practical applications: avoid drinkers if prone to alcohol, remove pay‑per‑view if struggling with lust, avoid gossipers if prone to gossip, do not attach to those who tear down leadership.​ Specific rebukes: dating couples sharing hotel rooms or apartments, “playing house” for financial or convenience reasons; teaching that this is tempting the flesh and violates holiness.​ Illustration: not climbing through “dumpsters of sin” while wearing Christ's clean garments.​ VII. Call to Response and Revival Allegorical story of Satan's convention: demons decide the best strategy is to tell people there is time, lulling them into delay and spiritual sleep.​ Final threefold call: Be aware of the time. Awake out of sleep. Be arrayed in the armor of Christ.​ Appeal for repentance, surrender, and practical steps (e.g., separating, seeking counseling, getting properly married) as evidence of true obedience and not “cheap grace.”​ Invitation to the altar for all, noting both obvious and hidden sins, and insistence that the gospel is about change, new life, and ongoing dependence on the Holy Spirit.

This conversation delves into the profound humility that comes with being a Christian, emphasizing the importance of self-reflection and personal responsibility. It explores the concept of condemnation, particularly how many Christians view themselves through the lens of their shortcomings rather than their potential for restoration and growth.Takeaways-Being a Christian is the most humbling thing you'll ever do. It forces you to have self-reflection and take full responsibility for yourself.-God restores you so you don't have to live in condemnation.-Condemnation is when you express an opinion against yourself.-Many Christians identify themselves as sinners.-Focusing on how sinful you are can obscure your true identity.-Using evidence of your lack can distort your self-image.-Self-perception is crucial in the Christian faith.-Restoration is a key aspect of the Christian journey.-Understanding condemnation can lead to personal growth.KeywordsChristianity, humility, self-reflection, condemnation, self-perception, faith, responsibility, restorationWant to purchase a signed copy of mybook?https://buy.stripe.com/7sI8xdg6F2kZgSIfZ6ORRead the reviews on Amazon?https://a.co/d/aEb273XWant to send me a financial donationbecause you value what I am doing on social media?https://buy.stripe.com/eVacNt3jTbVz9qg4gkWant to join my Facebook group that will equip you with the knowledge of the History of the United States, what the Constitution means and how you can preserve this great nation we live in?Join my paid group today!

Feeling weighed down by guilt or not-good-enough thoughts? You're not alone—and you don't have to stay there. In this message, Marilyn exposes how condemnation sneaks into our lives and shows how to kick it out for good. With practical teaching and biblical examples, she explains the difference between conviction and shame, and how living in the righteousness of Christ changes everything. It's not about performance, it's about identity.

In this episode of The Mountain Podcast, Samuel Goulet reflects on the church's journey through building transitions and emphasizes that the true foundation of the Mountain Church is God's enduring love. Drawing from John 3:16 and Romans 8, he explores how God's love is the central narrative connecting generations, offering daily salvation and freedom rather than condemnation. Goulet encourages listeners to embrace spiritual maturity by prioritizing love over displays of power, highlighting that love is the lasting force that sustains faith, community, and personal growth. The episode concludes with a prayer for a revival of love within the church and its membersTh

Praise Series — God Is Not Punishing You!Psalm 103:8-10, “The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love. He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever; he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities.”Praising the Lord when we are in a good place is one thing. It is a completely different story when we are struggling. One reason is that we might think we are going through this hard time because God is punishing us. I was praying for someone who was suffering from tinnitus. While I was praying with him, he mentioned that he thinks he has tinnitus because God didn't want him to listen to so much music and wanted him to pray silently more. If you lose your job or even if you lose a loved one you may believe that these bad things are happening because of something bad you have done in the past. We are all sinners and we may feel like God is punishing us for our sins.I want to reassure each of you that God is not punishing you! I am 100% sure of this! God does not punish us. God is only good. If you want proof that God does not punish us, you can look at today's Psalm. Psalm 103:8-10, “The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love. He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever; he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities.” God does not create the bad things that are happening in our lives. You did not get cancer because you had an affair. You did not have a miscarriage because you don't go to church. God is not punishing you. God did not do this bad thing to you.God is all-powerful and all-knowing. If he wants you to learn a lesson, he can teach it to you in a million different ways. He doesn't have to have you get sick before you turn to Him. Just because God can use this awful tragedy or the illness for your good doesn't mean He gave it to you. God does not create illness. He is a healer. God is love and mercy. God blesses people; He does not curse them.If you need another scripture verse, look at Romans 8:1, “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” Condemnation (punishment) is not for those who belong to Christ. God does not punish His children—He saves and restores them. John 3:17 states, "For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. The central message is that Jesus's mission was not to judge and punish humanity, but to offer a way to be freed from sin and its consequences.It is easier for many of us to believe that Jesus wouldn't punish us, but harder for us to believe that God does not punish us. God is a good and loving Father. Regardless of what our own father was like, God is always good and always loving. It is hard for us to believe things if we have no frame of reference for them. I think part of the reason I can believe that God is a good Father who loves me and doesn't want to punish me is because my own father was a good example of God's love to me. I am not saying I never got into trouble as a kid. I did occasionally do things that weren't ok. I did get in trouble. But my parents did not condemn me or make me feel shame for what I did. They gave me consequences so I would learn not to do it again, but they didn't punish me.I know that I am lucky and that so many kids don't grow up with a loving, caring example of a Father. In the United States, 1 in 4 kids grows up without a dad in the home. That means 25% of kids in America are growing up without a dad. In the 2020 Census, there were 18.4 million kids who were living without their biological dad. It is easy to see how the view of God got so distorted. We are living in a world of broken people. We are all just doing the best we can, and yet the best for so many of us is not good enough. These are just the kids who grow up without a dad. We also have the kids who grow up with an abusive dad. If so many people have no reference for a father who loves you unconditionally and who would never hurt you, then how are they supposed to understand that God could actually love them like that?If none of those other scripture verses convinced you that God is not punishing you, hopefully this one will. Isaiah 53:5 “But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.”Jesus took the full punishment, so we don't have to. What we receive now is peace, not wrath. Do we deserve to be punished? Absolutely. Every single one of us has done something wrong, deserving of punishment. However, that is why God sent Jesus to us. Jesus came to save us from the punishment we deserved. "Jesus died the death we deserved, so we might live the life he earned.”Why would God send his only Son to earth to die a gruesome death if he was just going to punish us for all we did anyway? If God is punishing you for your sins, why did Jesus die on a cross? When you are wondering if God is punishing you. When the enemy is whispering in your ear that you deserve this because of all the things you have done, I want you to take a look at a crucifix and ask yourself this question: “If that is true, if God is punishing me for all I have done, then what did Jesus die for?”We must know that God is not punishing us, because once we know this, praising becomes a bit easier. I know it is still not easy to praise in difficult times. I know there are many circumstances where the idea of praising God or being grateful for anything while you are in that circumstance seems unthinkable and impossible. That is why I am doing this series. My prayer is that by the end of this series, you know how vital praise is, you know how to praise, and you can praise, even in the challenging times. I genuinely believe that praise is the secret answer to so many of our problems.Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless all those who are listening to this episode. Lord, please help us in the wait. Help us to believe you are not punishing us. Help us to believe you are with us while we wait. Help us to keep faith and hope that things will get better and that we won't be in this forever. We love you, Lord, and we ask all of this in accordance with Your Will and in Jesus's Holy Name, Amen!Thank you for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus.

Condemnation, Conviction, Convinced

Jesus is invited to a Pharisees house for a great banquet, but while He is there a sinful woman comes. She weeps before Jesus and with her tears she wets Jesus feet and wipes them with her hair.  The Pharisee thinks Jesus' willingness to permit this shows Jesus is not really a prophet, but Jesus uses this to show he is not only a prophet but far greater than a prophet.  He is the Savior, and he neither condemns or condones us for our sin if we trust in him.  Instead he cancels our sin by paying for it by taking sin's punishment upon himself.

A fresh settler attack on a mosque in the occupied West Bank has drawn sharp international condemnation and intensified scrutiny of Israel's handling of rising violence in the territory. The arson and vandalism at Deir Istiya, which left Korans burned and hate-filled graffiti on the walls, comes amid warnings from the United Nations that such assaults risk fuelling a wider regional crisis.

Welcome to our Reveal podcast,Today's is both sobering and full of hope, Blessedness or Condemnation.every person walks one of two paths. Blessedness is the state of being in right relationship with God  walking in His light, forgiven through Christ, and filled with His Spirit. Psalm 1 paints this picture beautifully: “Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, but delights in the law of the Lord.”To be blessed is not just to have good things happen it's to be anchored in God's presence, to experience peace, purpose, and eternal life through Jesus Christ.On the other side is condemnation, which Scripture describes as the natural result of sin and separation from God. John 3:18 says, “Whoever does not believe stands condemned already, because they have not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.” Condemnation isn't God's desire it's the outcome of rejecting His gift of grace.The good news? Jesus came to remove condemnation. Romans 8:1 declares, “There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” Through faith in Him, we move from judgment to mercy, from death to life, from darkness to blessedness.To support this ministry and help us continue our God-given mission, click here:Subscribe to our channel for the latest sermons:https://www.youtube.com/@revealvineyardLearn more about Vineyard Church Reveal Campus:https://www.revealvineyard.com/Follow us on social media!Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/vineyardrevealcampus Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/RevealVineyard

What if the fastest way to grow is to stop judging yourself and start studying yourself? We dig into the practice of curiosity over condemnation and show how small, honest questions can unlock big changes. Instead of letting a harsh inner critic call the shots, we walk through simple ways to observe your thoughts, track your emotions, and name the patterns shaping your choices, so you can respond with wisdom rather than default reactions.We share practical tools that actually stick: journaling to move tangled feelings onto paper, a thought-feeling-behavior map to reveal what's driving your actions, and a gentle body check-in to notice signals you've been ignoring. We also talk about formation in everyday life—how subtle praise for perfection or years on autopilot can sculpt anxiety and people-pleasing just as powerfully as obvious traumas. Through stories and candid examples, we normalize struggle and highlight how faith and forgiveness create a secure base for growth, especially when your lived experience clashes with truths like being fearfully and wonderfully made.If you've ever said that's just my personality, we'll challenge that resignation and invite you to reclaim agency. Learn how to design environments that support you, from leaving space to decompress after crowds to seeking life-giving conversations that refuel your energy. To help you start, we share a short weekly exercise: audit your mental loops, identify emotions that aren't serving you, and pick one small experiment to run tomorrow. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a kinder inner voice, and leave a review with your biggest insight—what did you notice when you got curious?

In this episode, we unpack the freedom found in Romans 8:1 — “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”Condemnation is the enemy's lie that keeps believers trapped in guilt and shame. But God never condemns His children — He convicts to restore.

Friend of Sinners | Week 4 | The Heart of the Issue | Pastor Tyler Sollie | Life Center Tacoma There are two ways to experience distance: Self-serving ACTIONS and self-righteous ATTITUDES Jesus came to save those who are BROKEN BY REBELLION and those who are BLINDED BY RELIGION. Luke 15:1-2, 11, 23-32 (CSB) ACTIONS can take you to a distant LAND. ATTITUDES can keep you in a distant and defensive POSTURE. The Father PURSUES BOTH the BRING us in to His joy. "For certain types of people, grace is not only amazing, it is also infuriating." -Kenneth Bailey Proverbs 4:23 (CSB) What am I most ANGRY about? Ephesians 4:26-27 (CSB) Who do I currently RESENT that I haven't carried in PRAYER? Am I KEEPING SCORE - measuring my OBEDIENCE against others? 2 Corinthians 10:12 (NLT) Is there anyone I have already CUT OFF through CONDEMNATION? Is there an ATTITUDE in me that is creating DISTANCE? Your WORST days are never so BAD that you are outside of the REACH of God's grace. Your BEST days are never so GOOD that you are outside of the NEED of God's grace.
