This phrase, “neither barren nor unfruitful” comes from 2 Peter 1, where Peter is dealing with how we should add so many things to our faith, which is the foundation of our Christian lives. And once we do, we will be just that.

In the parable of the sower, Jesus teaches about 2 evils that are able to make a man unfruitful.Let's talk about them.

WEEK 5 - CURE FOR UNFRUITFUL HEARTS

Speaker: Justin WheelerSanctity of Life Sunday Permalink

Dr. Harold B. Sightler preached a message entitled, "The Unfruitful Fig Tree." We hope you enjoy this classic sermon from a great preacher of the past. Visit classics.preachthebible.org for more gospel messages.

The marvel is – that although one has read the Bible over a great number of years one still comes across things one has not really taken notice of before.  The opening words of Peter's second epistle caught our attention “to those who have obtained a faith of equal standing with ours.”  The point does not stand out so much in the AV as the ESV.       How great was Peter's faith now – as he reflects back on his life's experiences.   In v.16-18 he reflects on the incredible experience on the mountain when his Master was transfigured before him and 2 fellow disciples; he declares, “we were eye witnesses of his majesty.”  Yet we know that not long after, in the panic that followed his Master's arrest, Peter's faith collapsed.      Faith is a quality that is proved by actions as we saw emphasized by James in his epistle. Those who are not conscious of the need to develop a real active faith, would not be impressed by the urgency of the words of Peter in his second epistle.  He writes, “You …having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire … make every effort to supplement your faith with …” [1 v.4,5] and there follows a list of the qualities of character which enable faith to grow.   Have a look at them! Then he says, ”if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful….” [v.8]  Unfruitful in what?      Do we appreciate the point here? Peter writes of the danger of being “unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ”  But he is not talking about intellectual knowledge.  The Gk word here is epignosis and Paul uses it in Romans 1 v.28 “and since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind …”       Peter uses it again in his 2nd chapter, expressing his dismay that there is no growth in their awareness of God's presence and oversight of their lives. He writes (v.20), “For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first.” (See also the next verse!)  Peter is referring to what we might term ‘heart knowledge' as distinct from ‘head knowledge.'  Both are essential, but, dare we say, ‘head knowledge' is easier!        But do not miss the point Peter makes in v.9 – what the failure of ‘heart knowledge' causes!  Such a person “is so nearsighted that he is blind, having forgotten that he was cleansed from his former sins. Therefore brothers (and sisters) be all the more diligent to make your calling and election sure, for if you practice these qualities you will never fall.” Then our faith will have some comparison to Peter's and v.11 will be true for you as it will be for him..  

What happens Christians don't pursue sanctification? Last week on All of Life for God, Pastor Conrad Mbewe reminded us of the beauty of the fruitful Christian life. This week, in his second message, Mbewe warns us of the dangers of a fruitless life and gives us pastoral counsel on how to fight it. Want to hear more from Pastor Mbewe on spiritual growth?

Luke 12:42-48 Luke 13:6-9

KIB 443 – The Church and Unfruitful Works Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Large segments of the modern Church have embraced New Age doctrines on various levels.  From opening the door to a Kundalini spirit to teaching remote viewing to aspiring prophets, claims of “game-changing” abilities seem to fill the Internet.  Yet, these so-called “superpowers” have little effect on the currents of darkness that are now sweeping over the world.  At ground level, the Jezebel spirit has been so embedded into Western society that it continues to wreak havoc on families both inside the Church and the world.  It is time to return to the purity of the Word of God and the power of the Kingdom in this hour.   Dr. Michael K. Lake is the Chancellor and Founder of Biblical Life College and Seminary. He is the scholar-in-residence for the Strategic Remnant Learning Center – Biblical Life Assembly.  Dr. Lake is the author of the best-selling books “The Shinar Directive:  Preparing the Way for the Son of Perdition,” “The Sheeriyth Imperative:  Empowering the Remnant to Overcome the Gates of Hell,” “The Kingdom Priesthood: Preparing and Equipping the Remnant Priesthood for the Last Days,” and “The Kingdom Warrior: Full-Spectrum Spiritual Warfare 1.”  He is a popular speaker at national Christian conferences and is a frequent guest on many Christian TV and radio/podcast programs in North America.    Mary Lou Lake has worked side-by-side with her husband in ministry for over 40 years and is the author of the book “What Witches Don't Want Christians to Know – Expanded Edition.” 

If you are a Christian, you are bearing fruit and you will never be condemned. However, those who are outside of Christ will face judgement.

Glory be to God! Welcome everyone to Episode #813, Season 9. **

Welcome to Grace in Focus radio. Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are answering a question about John 15:6. When it talks about unfruitful branches being burned, is this about judgment or about discipline? Are there other possibilities? If believers are unfaithful or unfruitful, will they be sent to hell? Bob and Ken will offer some

Pastor Henry Knox exposits Ephesians 5:11-14January 7, 2024

A new MP3 sermon from Providence Christian Fellowship is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Do not become unfruitful Subtitle: Gospel of John Speaker: Darren Newcomb Broadcaster: Providence Christian Fellowship Event: Sunday Service Date: 12/10/2023 Bible: John 15:1-11 Length: 53 min.

Summary: Against a moral backdrop much like ours, in which evil seemed ready to envelop the whole empire. Peter gave specific advice to the Christ-followers of his day. This episode examines that advice and how we can follow it in today's world. We will see that despite being disheartened by the way Evil was winning the cultural battle between Christ's kingdom of righteousness and the kingdom of darkness, Peter urges Christ-followers to fight a different battle—one that Christ has given us the resources to WIN.For Further Prayerful Thought: Why do you think Peter tries to motivate his readers to fight the battle against evil desires and supplant them with a heart like that of Jesus—by appealing that such effort guarantees that their commitment to Christ will not be INEFFECTIVE or UNFRUITFUL?Step 2 for accessing Christ's power to overcome selfish attitudes (from verse 4b) stresses that the power to partake of Christ's moral excellence comes through his precious and great promises. How can living by Christ's promises dispel the turmoil and self-preoccupation that tend to rule our hearts?Which specific promises of God stood out to you?Which selfish compulsion of you heart needs to be expelled by claiming a promise of God?For the printed version of this message click here.For a summary of topics addressed by podcast series, click here.For FREE downloadable studies on men's issues click here.To make an online contribution to enable others to hear about the podcast: (Click link and scroll down to bottom left).

Jim Fleming | 2 Peter 1:1–11

 As we prepare to recognize elders and deacons, and as we get ready to affirm the man of God's choosing as our Next Senior Pastor, we desperately want to get it right. God's Word can provide just what we need!

Matthew 21:23-27 (ESV)Matthew 21:33-46Isaiah 5:1-7Matthew 21:40-41Matthew 21:38-39Hebrews 1:1-4Matthew 21:42Psalm 118:19-27Colossians 1:15-17John 1:1-5Matthew 21:43-46Deuteronomy 18:15-22

Ephesians 5:8-13 — How does one know if they are a born-again Christian? What are some ways they can test their lives to see if they have been saved? What are the manifestations of darkness and why should one know them? In this sermon on Ephesians 5:8–13 titled “Unfruitful Works of Darkness,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones walks through a standard against which Christians can measure their lives, teaching that it is important to know these so that they can see whether or not they are producing the fruit that stems from being a follower of Christ and being changed by the Holy Spirit. The first manifestation is the mind—those who are in darkness are ignorant of God and the truth about themselves and the state of their souls. They deny that their sin is grievous enough to separate them from God, and they don't see the need to submit their lives to the authority of Jesus Christ. Another manifestation is the will. Many people today are trying to make the world a better place— they see all the crime in the world and think that it will be fixed with more money or success. However, dealing with unrighteousness without addressing the underlying ungodliness will avail nothing; the foundational issue must be fixed in order to see change. This is what needs to be repaired in order for the world to be a better place.

Judges 13-14:4 // The story of Samson. When we first are introduced to Samson, we are told about his mother. However, she is never named. Yet we have confidence that she was not unknown to God. God sees us, knows us, and loves us. Psalm 139:1-6. Samson's mother was barren before she gave birth to her son. When we consider fruitfulness is our lives – we must remember that it is expected however seasons are normal. Barrenness is not death. What brings unfruitful character in our lives? Anxieties, cares, pursuing riches, and our desire for comfort and convenience. Our calling is to be rooted and grounded in God's love, to abide in Him and so to avoid a life of trying harder. Rest in the Lord.

Ondrea, what started your journey towards faith in Jesus Christ? After encountering the Christian, what did your journey look like? How should those who witness to their lost loved ones or coworkers take courage from your story? Where are you today, and how are you serving the Lord?
