So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous and good. — Romans 7:12 When I was a boy, the Ten Commandments were read almost every Sunday at church. The reading seemed long and dour. As I grew older, though, I learned that reading the law in worship is a fitting response of gratitude to God and a guide for spiritual growth.The Ten Commandments have more than one purpose. God's law convicts us of our sin, and it points us to the grace and forgiveness we experience in trusting God's Son, Jesus Christ, as our one and only Savior. When we trust in Jesus and we are no longer under the curse of sin, what happens to the law? In short, the Ten Commandments, which reveal God's perfect will, become a guide, a standard for followers of Jesus.Do you want to know how God wants you to live your daily life in relation to him and with others? Look to the Ten Commandments, which reveal God's holy, righteous, and good will for our everyday lives.We cannot keep God's law perfectly in this life. Though we are forgiven in Christ, we still fail—again and again.But, trusting in God's grace, we can ask forgiveness for our daily sins, and we can pray that by the Holy Spirit's power we will continue to become like our Savior, Jesus Christ, who kept all of God's commands perfectly.  Father God, thank you for your good and perfect will. Help us to strive every day to love and serve you and others. Amen.

Gospel Infusion // Holy Living by Connect Church SA

Pastor Luke preaches from 1 Peter 1:13-25, in which we are called to live in light of our salvation.

What has Christ's reconciliation done? Ephesians 2:11–13 prepares us for the morning sermon in public worship on the coming Lord's Day. In these three verses of Holy Scripture, the Holy Spirit teaches us that Christ's reconciliation has brought us near to a holy God. The devotional expounds on Ephesians 2 to establish a triple foundation for believers to walk in good works. It highlights that Christians are created anew for this purpose, incorporated into the commonwealth of Christ, and bound to God through the new covenant. The text contrasts the former state of Gentiles as aliens from these promises with their current status as brought near by Jesus's blood. This theological framework provides hope and obligation, motivating believers to live out the good works prepared by God. Pastor concludes with a call to remember these truths as a help to walking faithfully.

The Habit of Holy Living This Homily reflects on the Gospel's command, “Do not be afraid,” . . . . . . through the life of St. Benedict, whose fear was not of persecution but of allowing the moral decay of the world to corrupt his soul. Leaving behind the comforts and temptations of Rome, Benedict sought solitude, prayer, study, and honest work, forming what the Church calls the “habit of holy living.” His life demonstrates that holiness is not usually built through dramatic moments but through the quiet, faithful rhythm of daily prayer, worship, and perseverance. His Rule became the foundation for monasteries that not only strengthened the Church spiritually but also preserved education, culture, and civilization throughout Europe during times of great instability. The message is that steadfast faithfulness, practiced consistently over years, has the power to transform both individuals and society. The Homily then turns to the prophet Isaiah's vision of God's overwhelming holiness, drawing a profound connection to the Eucharist. Isaiah's fear arose from recognizing his own sinfulness before the holiness of God, yet he was purified when a burning coal touched his lips. This Old Testament image foreshadows the Eucharist, where Christ Himself becomes the true “burning ember” from God's altar, purifying those who receive Him with faith. We are reminded that regular participation in Mass is not merely an obligation but a gift through which Christ continually cleanses, strengthens, and renews His people. Just as Benedict's steadfast habits changed history, the simple but faithful habit of gathering Sunday after Sunday allows God to gradually transform hearts, families, and ultimately the world. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Art Work Saint Benedict Writing the Rules: German Painter: Herman Nigg: 1926

Romans: The Power of the Gospel for Holy Living - Transformation Sunday June 7th, 2026 Pastor Mike Booker

Sexual immorality is nothing new in a post-fall world. The culture of the Thessalonians had major issues in this area just as our world does today. Paul makes it clear that one of the distinguishing marks of a Christian should be "that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God."

Embody Mission: Holy Living by Real Life

In this week's episode Kevin sits down with Elder and long time member of Saints Peter & Paul: John Pemberton. The focus of their conversation centers around the "flood of debauchery" that Peter speaks of in 1 Peter 4, and how we're all "swayed" in this life - in one direction or another.John shares personally from his own life story about what that "flood" looked like. Yet, how God patiently endured + decisively acted in John's life. We also consider how even longtime Christians - even Peter himself(!) - face the challenge of "going with the flow."How are you navigating the "waters" of your life? What would it look like for  Christ to enter the equation? We consider that, and more, in this week's episode. We hope you enjoy it!

In this episode, Dr. John works through Deuteronomy 25:5–19, examining four laws designed to protect family life in ancient Israel: caring for widows through levirate marriage, safeguarding future generations, ensuring honest dealings in business, and remembering the ruthless attack of Amalek on Israel's most vulnerable.

In this episode, Dr. John works through Deuteronomy 24:5–25:4, unpacking a sweeping set of ancient laws that speak directly to the issues of our day: protecting marriage and family, defending the poor from exploitation, safeguarding public health, extending justice to foreigners, and ensuring punishment never crosses into cruelty.

In this episode, Dr. John walks through Deuteronomy 23, exploring how ancient Israel's laws of ritual purity speak to four timeless areas of Christian integrity: worship, personal hygiene, money, and care for others.

When we become Christians we don't just turn over a new leaf, we're spiritually raised with Christ and his resurrection power comes into our lives. And so, what does such an empowered life look like? We're called to be holy, but this is a difficult term to get ahold of. In our modern culture, both the word “sin” and the word “holiness” are almost never used anymore except ironically. But we need to take it seriously.  So let's ask 1) what is holiness? 2) how does it grow and develop in us? and 3) why is it possible to be holy?

Join us at Beaver Baptist Church as we continue in 1 Peter.

There's a tale as old as time itself: an athlete, a star, a musician—someone of sheer brilliance and raw talent—bursts onto the scene, destined for greatness. In this message, Pastor Eric Robertson shares through Sampson's story how grace doesn't always stop the fall. Sometimes it lets you feel the ground.They show all the signs. They excel. They taste success early. And then everything comes crashing down. Addiction. Entitlement. Laziness. Self-destruction. It's rarely one bad decision—it's years of unchecked compromise finally collecting its debt.This isn't new. It's been happening since ancient times. Samson is a biblical picture of wasted potential.After Joshua and the elders die, Israel breaks covenant with God and worships the idols of the surrounding nations. A pattern emerges: idolatry, oppression, crying out, and deliverance through a Judge.But something changes in Judges 13. Israel is no longer crying out. They've grown comfortable in oppression and compromise. A compromise is a tradeoff between the Kingdom of God and the corruption of the world—having every good thing from God, yet wanting the one thing you cannot have.Enter Samson.Samson is a Judge of Israel, a Nazirite by birth, set apart for a higher level of consecration. The more corrupted a culture becomes, the more set apart God's people must be.Samson's life begins with extraordinary grace. God chooses him before he does anything right or wrong. Yet almost immediately, Samson lives against his calling. He desires what he was told to resist, touches what he was commanded to avoid, and goes where he was called not to go.Instead of delivering Israel, Samson reacts. A riddle becomes a feud. A marriage becomes a battlefield. A conflict becomes a massacre. He wins battles, but Israel is never delivered. Each time he crosses a line, the Spirit of the Lord still rushes upon him.God empowers him again and again—but God being with you is not proof of approval, only mercy.At the climax, Samson doesn't realize the Lord has left him. The bill for compromise always comes due. A compromised life hardens the heart until we forget what God's presence even feels like.Samson isn't the hero—God is. His grace is meant to lead us to repentance. The grace meant to break Samson ultimately crushed him.God is the real hero. He never gives up on us. His grace blocks our paths of destruction. Samson played with fire, and it burned him—but God's promise remains: if we turn and cry out, He will restore us.

Hidden Influence, Holy Living, and the Cost of Compromise If you've ever assumed your faith is a private matter—or that small compromises don't really matter—this message confronts that assumption head-on.    Sermon Description What if everything you've been taught about greatness needs to be turned upside down? In this two-part message from Mark 9, Jesus radically redefines what it means to be great in the kingdom of God. Instead of pointing to visibility, influence, or recognition, He calls His followers to humility, hidden service, and a seriousness about holiness that challenges modern assumptions about faith and success. Across both episodes, Jesus confronts our desire to be seen and our tendency to tolerate quiet compromise. He exposes how our lives influence others—often more than we realize—and why true discipleship requires both humble service and decisive obedience. This message invites you to consider whether your faith is shaped more by cultural definitions of success or by the quiet, costly way of the cross.   Scripture: Mark 9:30-50   Show Notes – Part 2 Why faith never exists in isolation How hidden sin quietly sabotages others Jesus' strong warning about causing others to stumble What radical holiness actually looks like in everyday life Why purification, though uncomfortable, is an act of grace   Resources + Links: Episode Link: https://gospeldaily.org/podcast-1448-1449/  Visit the site - www.gospeldaily.org to subscribe to our email ➡️ Read an additional resource from Josh Weidmann entitled: A Biblical Perspective on New Year's Resolutions Pastor Josh's Blog Site: www.joshweidmann.com  Series: Encountering Jesus
