Podcasts about his gospel

Continuing to march through and with Mark at River Of Life OPC in Phillipsburg, NJ. In this passage Jesus tells His disciples of His mission to suffer, die, and rise. But Peter does not like this plan and tells the LORD. Peter had his mind on the things of man and not God. Then Jesus goes on to teach the crowd what it means to put your mind on the things of God and His Gospel and not the world. www.christianpodcastcommunity.org

Faithful in All Things: Apostolic Stewardship in D&C 81–83 | Dr. D. Todd Harrison: The Most-Followed LDS Religious Leader on Facebook and Jesus Christ's Apostle to All Nations and Generations, stands as a Witness to Jesus's Resurrection.In this week's revelatory message, Dr. D. Todd Harrison shares strong apostolic witness concerning the doctrines taught in Doctrine and Covenants 81–83 to reveal the spiritual weight of leadership, the sanctity of promises, and the divine principles behind consecration and care.Viewers will discover:D&C 81 – The Lord's charge to a counselor in the First Presidency (Frederick G. Williams), emphasizing that leadership is not title—it is service, sacrifice, and being faithful in all things.A personal promise: “I will bless him as long as he is faithful and in all things walk uprightly before me.” (v. 7)D&C 82 – A warning and encouragement: “Unto whom much is given, much is required.” The section outlines divine expectations for those entrusted with stewardship—and the blessings that follow unity and repentance.D&C 83 – A reaffirmation of care: declaring the Church's covenant responsibility to support widows and orphans—demonstrating that consecration must produce compassion.Dr. Harrison invites viewers to reflect not only on leadership and responsibility, but on the enduring relevance of these principles in a covenant-driven life. The Lord watches. The Spirit empowers. And the faithful are sustained."I declare my apostolic witness that these revelations are eternal, and relevant in every dispensation. We are called to serve. Called to repent. Called to remember the poor and the forgotten.I speak this as one sent—commissioned and ordained by Jesus Christ to testify to the nations and generations of His Gospel, His expectations, and His grace.In the sacred name of Jesus Christ, amen."Dr. D.

July 25, 2025Today's Reading: Mark 10:35-45Daily Lectionary: 1 Samuel 9:1-27; Acts 21:37-22:16“For whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” (Mark 10:43b-45) In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.When James and his brother John ask to sit beside Jesus as He enters His glory, they don't realize that Jesus will enter that glory with hands and feet nailed to the rough wood of a cross, and so will the two who are granted to sit at his right and left (the two thieves), all three lifted up before the people as worthless transgressors.If only James and John knew what they were asking – what was to come – they might flee from Jesus too soon, before being witness to His suffering and death. Every day we are reminded of what it means to live by God's grace. Every time we suffer any trial, every thorn piercing our side, we are reminded, “My grace is sufficient for you.” (2 Corinthians 12:9)James and John will indeed know what it means to drink from the same cup as Jesus; to be baptized with His Baptism. For John, exile and isolation from his people. For his brother, James (the one being honored this day), death by the sword of Herod (Acts 12:1-2). But even before they drink from that cup, the trials of taking up one's cross and following Christ will teach them what it is to live by God's grace.Who is the greatest? The greatest in the kingdom of heaven is The One who came not to be served, but to serve. The greatest is The One who, “though He was in the form of God, did not count equality with God something to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a slave.” (Philippians 2:6-7)When you are tempted to think yourself greater than others, look to Jesus and be humbled by His greatness. When you worry about who might be greater than you, take comfort in the greatness of Jesus. Be drawn into His greatness, proclaim His Gospel, serve your neighbors when they need you, and allow others to serve you when your need is greatest. Rejoice that you are baptized with the same Baptism as Jesus. Gladly drink from the same cup as Jesus, which has become for you the cup of salvation. In it, you have a seat of honor awaiting you at the table of the marriage feast of the lamb, whose kingdom has no end.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. O Lord, for James we praise You, who fell to Herod's sword; He drank the cup of suff'ring and thus fulfilled Your word. Lord, curb our vain impatience for glory and for fame, Equip us for such suff'rings as glorify Your name. (LSB 518:21)Rev. Jeffrey Ries is the pastor of Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tacoma, WA.Audio Reflections Speaker: Pastor Jonathan Lackey is the pastor at Grace Lutheran Church, Vine Grove, KY.Step back in time to the late Reformation and learn about a divisive yet inspirational figure: Matthias Flacius Illyricus.

In this episode Mike sits down with Truth Network President and CEO Stu Epperson to talk about the fundamental point of being a follower of Christ and how we are to share His Gospel with all the world.     "I have been crucified with Christ, it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." -Galatians 2:20

One of the things that makes the Gospel of Luke different from the rest of the Gospels is that Luke spends much of his time talking about Christ's humanity. Yes, our Lord was and is fully God, but He was also fully human, a point Luke emphasizes throughout His Gospel account. Today, Ron takes us to the Gospel of Luke as he continues his teaching series, “Route 66: The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible.” 

God desires three sounds in the heart and house of His people: the prayers for all nations, the praises of His Saints, and the proclamation of His Gospel. Anything less is a sound that grieves His heart.

People have often wondered how God will judge people who may have never heard His Gospel or encountered the Bible in any form. Does He judge them against a different measurement? Do they get a pass due to ignorance? As Pastor Dan will point out in today's message, while Scripture doesn't go into detail about how God handles this matter, it does make it clear that God writes His laws on the hearts of man, and all of us ultimately will have the opportunity to either accept or reject salvation in Christ.

Color: Red First Reading: Acts 15:1–12 First Reading: Acts 15:1–21 Psalm: Psalm 46; antiphon: v. 11 Epistle: Galatians 2:1–10 Gospel: Matthew 16:13–19 Introit: Psalm 89:1, 5, 15–16; antiphon: Psalm 119:46 Gradual: Romans 10:15b, 18b; Isaiah 52:7b, alt. Verse: Matthew 16:18b St. Peter and St. Paul, Apostles   Jesus is “the Christ, the Son of the living God.” So confessed St. Peter. And Christ promised to build His Church on it by the forgiveness of sins (Matt. 16:16–19). He does this so we don't try to build the Church ourselves, on this or that person, or by any human means. “Let no one boast in men … whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas,” for “all are yours, and you are Christ's, and Christ is God's” (1 Cor. 3:21–23). The same Lord “who worked through Peter … worked also through” Paul and is still at work in His Gospel and Sacraments (Gal. 2:7–8). The Church of every age must be recalled to “hear the word of the gospel” — the free forgiveness of sins for Christ's sake apart from the Law — “and believe.” The Holy Spirit makes “no distinction” among men, but cleanses “hearts by faith” alone. So “we will be saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus” (Acts 15:7–11). Both were imprisoned (Acts 12:1–11), both wrote Scripture (2 Peter 3:15–16), both opposed the world — and sometimes each other (Gal. 2:11–16) — all so “that the truth of the gospel might be preserved” for us (Gal. 2:5).

The Lord finds those who did not seek Him or ask for Him. He spreads out His hands “to a rebellious people” (Isaiah 65:2) and calls them to be His people and to dwell in peace upon His holy mountain (Isaiah 65:9). For wherever Jesus Christ enters in, Satan is cast out. Those who were enslaved and driven mad by the assaults and accusations of the devil are set free by the Word of Christ. He drowns and destroys the old Adam in us with the waters of Holy Baptism and thereby brings us out of death into life. No longer naked in our shame, living “among the tombs” (Luke 8:27), we are brought into the Lord's house, fully clothed by Christ; He has come in “the fullness of time” (Galatians 4:4) to fulfill the Law on our behalf and to redeem us from its every accusation. Therefore, having been justified by His grace through faith in His Gospel, “you are no longer a slave, but a son” (Galatians 4:7).

When Christ called His first disciples to join Him on His mission, they immediately changed their focus toward God. Immediately they made their entire life about serving God and sharing His Gospel with the world. With the constant reality of violence and war in the world, it is an opportunity for us to live as followers of Jesus Christ with the same dedication as the Disciples. Now is our chance to use our life to preach, teach and heal the world, through the peace and grace of God.

Complementary Old Testament Passage:Jeremiah 31:31-34 Sermon Outline: The Law comes 50 Days after the Passover Lamb is slain The Holy Spirit brings a New Creation Fire which does not consume Family Discussion Questions: What came first, the 10 Commandments or the Rescue from Egypt? Can anyone be saved by keeping the 10 commandments? Does trusting in Jesus mean that we do not keep Gods Commandments anymore? How is the work of the Holy Spirit like wind? Can you have the Holy Spirit without Jesus or Jesus without the Holy Spirit? It looked like fire was on the heads of the Apostles - yet they did not burn. What part of the Bible does this remind you of? Does God care about holiness less than He did in the Old Testament? Describe the relationship between Gods Law and His Gospel. What is the main difference between the Old Covenant and the New Covenant? Who does Acts 2 show are the heirs of the promises of Jeremiah 31? How does this passage teach us that nothing about God has changed from the Old to the New Testament? Describe the different times which a person might need to be reminded that they are a New Creation. The Apostles role was to witness Christs once for all work and also the Holy Spirits once for all work. How would this event impact them? How would John 3 correct a person who assumed that what happened in Acts 2 would be the ordinary experience of the church after that time?

The New Covenant is one of the most important topics we can understand about the plan of God among people. Yet even though it's the covenant we're in right now with God, many Christians don't understand it. Today, in our study of Isaiah 42, we're going to look at one of the earliest references to the New Covenant found in the Old Testament. Join us for the key study in this key chapter! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1. Isaiah 42 continues to build on the idea that a New Kingdom is coming. In verse 1, we find out that the leader of this kingdom is also a servant. Who is He a servant of? What does that indicate about His own nature and character? 2. The podcast explained that Isaiah 42 is one of several “Servant Songs” in the book of Isaiah. The four “Servant Songs” are found in Isaiah 42, 49, 50 & 53. What is a "Servant Song”? Why is it important to know about these “Servant Songs” when interpreting these passages? 3. Look over verse 1 again. How do we see the fingerprints of the Trinity in this verse? 4. Many Jewish people say that the servant here is the nation of Israel. While that is true in Isaiah 41:8-9, what were some of the reasons given in the podcast for why Israel is not the Servant here in Isaiah 42? Why is this “new” (or different) Servant necessary? 5. Verse 1 also speaks to the nature of the reign of the Servant. What kind of kingdom He establish? 6. In verses 2 to 4, how does He go about establishing this kingdom? In these verses, does it sound like Christ's kingdom expanding through conquest? How would you say that this kingdom is being established in these verses? How do we see this prophecy working out in our world today? 7. How does verse 5 show us the accountability that all people have to God? 8. Isaiah 42 introduces one of the earliest passages in the Bible about the New Covenant. In verse 6, what covenant is God appointing the Servant to bring to the nations? According to the podcast, what is the significance of the Lord's plan to move on from the Mosaic covenant? 9. In verse 7, why does the Lord characterize people's entrance into this kingdom as having blind eyes opened and being freed from dungeons? How did Jesus echo these principles in His Gospel proclamations? 10. In verses 10 to 12, what is the atmosphere of this kingdom? 11. Verses 13 to 15 speak of a different time period in the establishment of this kingdom. Verses 2 to 4 speak of Jesus' first coming and how He works in the world now. Verses 13 to 15 speak of His Second Coming when He will judge the nations and finally and fully establish His kingdom. How are these two interactions with mankind different? Why are they so different? 12. Verses 16 to 25 speak of the spiritual condition of mankind. What is the dominant malady of people described in these verses? What are the various responses to the Lord that are given in these verses? What accounts for these differences? What does this look like in our world today? How were you once blind?

Color: White Old Testament: Ezekiel 34:11–16 Psalm: Psalm 23; antiphon: v. 6 Epistle: 1 Peter 2:21–25 Gospel: John 10:11–16 Introit: Psalm 33:1, 18–20; antiphon: vv. 5b, 6a Verse: Luke 24:35b; John 10:14 The Good Shepherd Cares for His Sheep   Our Lord Jesus is the Good Shepherd (John 10:11–16). He is not like the hireling, who cares nothing for the sheep and only for himself, who flees when he sees the wolf coming. Rather, Jesus is the Good Shepherd who seeks out His scattered sheep to deliver them (Ezek. 34:11–16). He gathers them and feeds them in rich pasture. He binds up the broken and strengthens the sick. He lays down His life for wandering and wayward sheep. On the cross, Christ bore in His body the attacks of the predators of sin and death and the devil for you that you might be saved. He now lives to restore your soul in the still waters of baptism, to lead you in the paths of righteousness by the voice of His Gospel, to prepare the table of His holy supper before you, that you may dwell in the house of the Lord forever (Psalm 23). “For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls” (1 Peter 2:25).

 The Lord breaks bonds and His Gospel sets us free, but how? Have you been set free? Watch or listen to this week's powerful message from Acts chapter 16:16-40 with Pastor Todd Hessel.https://www.ankenyfree.church

Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came from the Father and became flesh among us in order to rescue us, His sheep. He laid down His life for us and took it up again in order to give us eternal life. By the preaching of His Gospel, He calls His sheep to Himself and keeps them with Him forever. As they hear His voice and follow Him, “they will never perish” (John 10:28), for “no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand” (John 10:29). In the same way, faithful pastors (literally, “shepherds”) “care for the church of God, which he obtained with his own blood” (Acts 20:28), “testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance toward God and of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ” (Acts 20:21). Therefore, with all the company of heaven, the Good Shepherd gathers His flock in worship, as they cry: “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” (Rev. 7:10).

Scripture makes it abundantly clear that Christ will return. As His followers, how can we wait well?   Jesus gave us a clear commission: to proclaim His Gospel to the ends of the Earth. At the same time, Christ cautions us against trying to predict His return—only the Father knows the time. Instead, He calls us to live with steadfast hope, pursuing holiness, godliness, and joyful obedience.  Tune in to discover how you can live a hope-filled life in light of Jesus' promised return.

Easter Sunday is one of the biggest highlights in the life of the church as we celebrate the resurrection. But after all the excitement dies down, we are often left with the question in our lives of what happens next? How do we handle the magnificent news of the Gospel now that we have received it and responded to it? How do we truly live for Christ and cling to Him? To find these answers, we'll take a look back to Jesus' sermon on the mount to see how Jesus is the greatest treasure one could ever have, and how as a result, we must pursue Him and His Gospel each day!

God calls us as a Church to be in communion and relationship with one another, carrying each other's burdens, praying for one another, and sharpening each other. The more time we spend with God, in His Word and with other believers, the more His Gospel truth will spill out of us when we're in a situation to share this truth with non-believers.

Revelation Dates: December 1830-January 1831 Revelation Place: Fayette, New York Section 37 - Historical Background: Sidney Rigdon had been told earlier that new scriptures would be coming. As Joseph's scribe, they received the book of Moses. The Lord then interrupts the translation and commands that the headquarters of the church be moved from Fayette, New York to Ohio. Recap: Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon are interrupted during the translation of the bible and the Book of Moses to focus on moving the church headquarters to Ohio. Each family is to choose for themselves according to their own best judgement.  Section 38 - Historical Background: The church holds its 3rd and last conference in Fayette, New York. As part of the conference, Joseph wanted to provide answers to the Saints' questions why the Lord was requiring them to sell their farms and homes and move to Ohio. Joseph asks the Lord and with Sidney Rigdon as scribe, he receives this revelation.  Recap: The Lord reminds the Saints that it is He, and not Joseph Smith, who leads His church. The Lord protects the righteous who will always overcome, and He chains the wicked who will be doomed. Fear not, for the plot of the wicked will fail. He enters into a covenant with the church to provide a land of promise and inheritance, as long as the saints are faithful and obedient. There must be unity among the saints, organize themselves and gather in Ohio for safety.  Section 39 - Historical Background: Immediately after the church conference in Fayette, a 40-year-long Baptist minister named James Covel was so moved that he committed to Joseph that he would obey any commandment given him. Joseph inquired of the Lord what He desired from Covel.  Recap: Only those who receive the Lord's church can receive Him. Now is the time to accept His Gospel, be baptized, receive the Holy Ghost and embark in gathering the saints in Ohio. Preach with a loud voice, baptize and give them the gift of the Holy Ghost.  Section 40 - Historical Background: Despite the solemn promise and covenant to follow God's command (see section 39), James Covel deliberately refused and turned his back on the Lord and His saints. When Joseph learned of Covel's blatant rejection, he asked the Lord for instructions.    Recap: Though the original covenant and heart of James Covel was right before the Lord, the adversary destroyed his conviction and therefore by breaking his promise Covel lost everything the Lord had promised him. Joseph is not to concern himself with James Covel any longer for the Lord will deal with him.

Theme: Mark's cryptic, unusual ending to His Gospel is a call for us to overcome fear and to share the Good news of the resurrection and the message of grace and restoration, knowing that God will accomplish His work despite our wavering faithfulness.

Resurrection Sunday is the Feast of FirstFruits, not Easter, a pagan title from Ishtar, the goddess of love and war (thus, the eggs, the bunny). After His death, Yeshua visited and preached His Gospel to the netherworld. They trembled when they heard! His resurrection is our resurrection. Our names were/are written in the Lamb's Book of Life, from the foundation of the world. As Mattityahu and Luqas gave the genealogy of Yeshua, His lineage and His descent, we who are Chosen in Him are in the genealogical records of Yeshua, called the Book of Chayim or Life, for we were born of Him! We have descended from Him!

Immeasurably More// Faith Under Fire// March 30, 2025Ephesians 6:10-20 (NIV)“Finally, BE STRONG in the Lord and in the strength of HIS MIGHT. Put on the full armor of God so we can take our stand against the devil's schemes because our battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers and against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 (NIV)“For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does…On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”Isaiah 59:14-17 (NIV)“So, justice is driven back, and righteousness stands at a distance; truth has stumbled in the streets, honesty cannot enter. Truth is nowhere to be found, and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey. The Lord looked and was displeased that there was no justice. He saw that there was no one, he was appalled that there was no one to intervene, so his own arm achieved salvation for him, and his own righteousness sustained him. He put on righteousness as his breastplate, and the helmet of salvation on his head; he put on the garments of vengeance and wrapped himself in zeal as in a cloak.” The armor is about confidence in God's ability to hold all those elements of the armor true and together.  The Helmet is His Salvation Isaiah 12:2 (NIV)“Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation.” Ephesians 2:8 (NIV)“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.”   The Breastplate is His RighteousnessPhilippians 3:8-9 (NIV)“What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith.” The Belt is His TruthPsalm 33:4 (KJV)“For the word of the LORD is right, and all His work is done in truth.” Ephesians 4:14 (NIV)“Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.” The Sword of the Spirit is His WordHebrews 4:12 (NIV) “For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.”  The Shoes are His Gospel of PeaceIsaiah 52:7 (NIV)“How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!” The gospel is meant to be peace with God and peace with one another. The Shield of FaithFaith is deliberate confidence in the character of God.Faith is not about my ability to believe but it's about His ability to BE.His unfailing character and person.  Faith is not about my ability to believe but it's about His ability to BE.  John 14:26,27 (NIV)“But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you…Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”  

We are called to be witnesses by Jesus and walk in His character and authority to declare His Gospel.

Today, Pastor Jack teaches that Jesus used parables so He could share His Gospel mission through a common story. Jesus as the Sower is throwing the seeds, which is the Word of God, hoping that it lands on the good soil of our hearts.

Today, Pastor Jack teaches that Jesus used parables so He could share His Gospel mission through a common story. Jesus as the Sower is throwing the seeds, which is the Word of God, hoping that it lands on the good soil of our hearts. The post Parable Of The Sower – 2A first appeared on Pastor Jack Hibbs.

Today's speaker is Dr. David Prince, Pastor of Preaching and Vision at Ashland Avenue Baptist Church in Lexington, Kentucky. Dr. Prince motivates us to see that Jesus Christ and His Gospel must be the center, the context, the goal, and the end of our Christian living. His text is Galatians 2:20.

Scripture – Psalm 37 Sermon Summary:  Put joy-killing anger, envy, and anxiety to death by delighting in God and trusting His Gospel promises.

In this episode we examine the conversion of the Apostle Paul. It is fascinating that within just a few short verses we see the Lord God intervene in two separate lives THREE times in DIVINE REVELATION in the form of a vision to propel HIS Gospel message forward to all people- Gentiles, Kings, and Jews. God hasn't changed. He is still in the business of giving people who are willing to listen and obey Divine Revelation through His transforming word and the leadership of His HOLY SPIRIT. God doesn't want you to stay in the dark; HE invites you into the LIGHT of His Divine Revelation!

Send us a textJoin Barbara Morgan Gardner and Rebecca Morgan as they walk with Him this week! Today we study Elder Takashi Wada - The Words Of Christ and the Holy Ghost Will Lead Us to the Truth, Elder Ruben V. Alliaud - Sons and Daughters of God and Elder I. Raymond Egbo - Focus on Jesus Christ and His Gospel

On today's Inklings podcast we discuss the talk by I. Raymond Egbo: Focus on Jesus Christ and His Gospel.

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today. Does Evangelism still work? Are gone the days of great revival? These are questions that a lot of Christians are asking, and quite frankly, they're the wrong questions. You see, we should be asking, WHO can I share this Good news with? That's just what Julie did. She went out at an Equip America event and set out to share her faith. She told us that she didn't have some grand speech planned or an amazing icebreaker. She simply had the tools she needed to share the Gospel - and she did. Do you know what? Not only did she share her faith, she was able to lead a woman to saving faith in Jesus just because she was obedient to Jesus' commandment to go out and spread the Gospel! Jesus would never ask us to do something that he won't be right there to help us with. Julie would be the first to tell you that. So, go out and share His Gospel! For Gospel sharing resources, visit sharelife.today.

Today on PowerPoint, Pastor Jack Graham begins Essential Gospel, an in-depth series on the book of Romans. Pastor Graham tells us that Jesus Christ is the essential Gospel; the eternal Gospel; the exclusive Gospel; and He is the one and only Savior who gives us His Gospel which is not only needed but is necessary.
