Special Services Night 3: Social Covenanting

The sermon explores the narrative of David and Uriah the Hittite through a hypothetical lens, asking what would have happened if Uriah had opened the letter containing his death warrant. This thought experiment serves as a warning to men of God about the dangers of moral compromise, illustrating how a leader's sin can betray the trust of their followers and endanger the entire congregation. The message emphasizes that true protection comes from consistent character rather than mere conviction, urging preachers to remain faithful to God's people, and for the people to avoid the bitterness that arises from the fallen abusing their trust. It challenges the audience to recognize the value of godly leadership and to stand up for the innocent against those who misuse their authority. The sermon concludes with a call to gratitude for faithful shepherds and a reminder that Jesus Christ remains the ultimate, faithful hero.

In 1990, the US was eight times more powerful than China; today China is 33% more powerful than the US. How can we rebuild the nation? Kevin Swanson talks with Chad Roach and David Reese about the only way out of the hole: reigniting a vision for every American to fruitfully exercise dominion. They discuss: - The positive and negative duties of dominion, discovering, innovating, producing, building, making new gains – and preserving it over time - Why so many Christians make so little money - The difficulty of working in highly specialized positions – and how to be productive if you're stuck in a "zombie job" - Why intelligent risk is vital to enjoying a fruitful life, and how to challenge kids of all ages to take risks - Three main ways to radically increase income - How to avoid your kids turning into Paris Hilton if you succeed in becoming wealthy Got a topic you want us to cover?

This sermon explores the theological necessity of a transformed life following salvation, using the account of the paralytic in Mark 2 as a central framework. The message argues that while the forgiveness of sins in verse five is the foundation of the Christian experience, the command to arise and walk in verse eleven represents the visible evidence of that grace. By examining hypothetical scenarios where the man did not rise, the text highlights how a lack of victory would have discouraged believers, emboldened critics, and diminished the glory of God. The preacher emphasizes that a changed life is the most convincing witness to the truth of the Gospel, surpassing emotional worship or rhetorical skill. Ultimately, the sermon calls for a move from mere profession to active obedience, asserting that the power of preaching is validated only when it produces tangible change in the believer's daily walk.

Rosette Sings, My Savior First of All

Isaiah 2:1-22:0 - Speaker: Lukus Counterman - In Isaiah chapters 2-4, the prophet bookends his message with descriptions of the New Jerusalem (2:2-4; 4:2-6). We are given an idyllic picture of life when the true King reigns. But in between those two glorious portrayals, Isaiah addresses the sinful state of the rebellious city. He tries to expose the futility of pride in man and possessions. His reminder is that man is as temporary as a breath, so we must turn to the Lord and trust in him alone. May we us see the futility of pride, and in contrast, the blessing of trusting in God. Ask God to search your heart and expose anything that's displeasing to him.

2026-09-27 Third Cycle of Discipleshipby: Pastor Chris BergScripture Reference: Mark 10:32-4532 They were now on the way up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was walking ahead of them. The disciples were filled with awe, and the people following behind were overwhelmed with fear. Taking the twelve disciples aside, Jesus once more began to describe everything that was about to happen to him. 33 “Listen,” he said, “we're going up to Jerusalem, where the Son of Man will be betrayed to the leading priests and the teachers of religious law. They will sentence him to die and hand him over to the Romans. 34 They will mock him, spit on him, flog him with a whip, and kill him, but after three days he will rise again.”35 Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came over and spoke to him. “Teacher,” they said, “we want you to do us a favor.”36 “What is your request?” he asked.37 They replied, “When you sit on your glorious throne, we want to sit in places of honor next to you, one on your right and the other on your left.”38 But Jesus said to them, “You don't know what you are asking! Are you able to drink from the bitter cup of suffering I am about to drink? Are you able to be baptized with the baptism of suffering I must be baptized with?”39 “Oh yes,” they replied, “we are able!”Then Jesus told them, “You will indeed drink from my bitter cup and be baptized with my baptism of suffering. 40 But I have no right to say who will sit on my right or my left. God has prepared those places for the ones he has chosen.”41 When the ten other disciples heard what James and John had asked, they were indignant. 42 So Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers in this world lord it over their people, and officials flaunt their authority over those under them. 43 But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant, 44 and whoever wants to be first among you must be the slave of everyone else. 45 For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.”Mandeville Bible Church   "Where God's Word is Our Foundation"https://www.mandevillebiblechurch.org/Come and see that God's Word is alive and at work right here in Mandeville.. and throughout the world!All are welcome. 217 Carroll Street, Mandeville, LA 70448Church Office: (985) 626-3114Sunday Service: 9:30AMAdult Sunday School: 10:45-11:30AMNursery and Children's church available.

"The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad." - Psalm 126:3 It is easy to look at what is wrong, what is missing, or what still needs to change. But Psalm 126 reminds us to stop and remember what the LORD has already done. In this message, Pastor Ed Decker points us back to the great things God has done for His people and the gladness that should follow when we recognize His goodness. Have we forgotten how far the LORD has brought us? Have we become so occupied with today's problems that we have stopped rejoicing over yesterday's victories? The LORD hath done great things for us. We have reason to be glad.

Romans 10: Deuteronomy 30

Special Services, Night 1: Remember the Sabbath

This sermon explores the nature of Christian faith as a divine gift that defies human nature, contrasting it with the irrational beliefs of atheism, and its capacity to achieve great works. True faith is not a special trait of elite saints but a common possession of all believers, enabling ordinary people to live righteously and serve God despite their weaknesses.

The sermon explores the Reformed doctrine of the certain application of Christ's redemption, emphasizing that salvation is secured for the elect through the Holy Spirit's effectual calling. By analyzing John 6:37-38, the text outlines key theological themes including election, limited atonement, and perseverance, asserting that those given by the Father will inevitably come to Christ and never be cast out. The discussion extends to the role of special revelation in salvation, distinguishing it from general revelation, and illustrates the miracle of regeneration through the metaphor of Ezekiel's valley of dry bones. Furthermore, the sermon differentiates between the passive nature of baptism as a sign and seal of the covenant and the active requirement of faith in the Lord's Supper, arguing against sacerdotal views that treat sacraments as magical instruments. This pastoral instruction encourages believers to trust in God's sovereign grace while maintaining a credible profession of faith and active participation in the church's ordinances.

This sermon explores the divine perspective presented in Mark 6, emphasizing that God perceives the full reality of human existence, including physical needs, spiritual lostness, and the internal state of the heart. The message highlights Jesus' compassion for the crowds, viewing them as sheep without a shepherd, and His instruction to the disciples regarding the necessity of rest and the exercise of faith during the feeding of the five thousand. It further examines the storm on the sea as a divinely permitted trial designed to teach reliance on Christ rather than human effort. The central theological argument is that a hardened heart prevents believers from recognizing these lessons and seeing others as God sees them. The preacher urges the congregation to soften their hearts to receive grace, understand the purpose of life's trials, and extend compassion to the lost.

Every believer is a priest to God called to "offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ (Rev. 1:6; 1 Peter 2:5, 9). The Holy Spirit, who was given in special measure to Old Testament priests (Num. 11:25) has been poured out on all believers to make them "wholeheartedly willing and ready from now on to live for him." But while all Christians are priests, not all are ministers. The Lord still sets apart some of his men for vocational ministry. And it is beneficial for all of us to know how that happens.
