On June 7th, 2026, Father Blackburn preached on the calling of Saint Matthew and what invitations to those outside the church looks like. Matthew 9:9-13 is his text.
Sunday AM-Mark
(This podcast was previously published on May 6, 2022) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... 2 Corinthians 5:9-11 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of HIM. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; Hebrews 6:10 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward HIS name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. Each of us "serve" (minister) in the way God has shown us. Pam Padgett has been given by God the spiritual gift of "helps". I Corinthians 12:28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. I have been given a spiritual gift of "exhortation". Romans 12:8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness. We work in that spiritual gift or office to which we are placed by God, but we share equally in the body of Christ and will receive for that which we do in our assignment!
If you were standing in that ancient courtyard on Friday morning, where would you have been? Would you have stood up for justice for your Savior, or would you have been right there with the crowd, shouting "Crucify Him!"? As we look at John 19:1-24, we see the unrighteous judgment of the Righteous Judge. Jesus is the King of kings, sovereign over all, who will one day judge the living and the dead. Yet here, as the all-sufficient suffering servant, He is handed over to sinful men in an absolute mockery of a trial. Our initial thought is always, "I would never do that. I would never reject King Jesus." But my encouragement to you is this: I think you think too highly of yourself. When we look at the depravity and the sinfulness in our own hearts, we have to ask the hard question: "Are we still headlong in our sin, rejecting His claims, His person, and His majesty today?" What We Cover Today The Sadistic Mockery & The Flogging: We look at the brutal severity of the beating Jesus suffered. We see the cruel humor of the Roman soldiers shoving a crown of thorns into His skull and wrapping Him in a rag of royal purple, completely unaware of before whom they stood. The Greater Sin of Knowing the Truth: Jesus told Pilate that the ones who handed Him over had the greater sin. The principle is clear: To whom much is given, much is required. What does it mean for us if we know the most about Christianity, but stay the furthest from it? Are we in the greatest danger? "We Have No King But Caesar": We look at the chilling pinnacle of Jewish rebellion. These leaders hated Rome, yet to get rid of Jesus, they traded God the Father for a pagan emperor. Who is the real king ruling your heart when no one is looking? Sovereignly in Control: Even when the world looks completely out of hand, God is in control. From the Roman soldiers playing dice and casting lots for His seamless tunic, every single detail was prophesied hundreds of years prior in Psalm 22. None of this caught God by surprise. 04:39 – The Severe Flogging & Sadistic Mockery of the Soldiers 09:00 – Pilate's Failed Attempt to Meet in the Middle 11:51 – A Rattled Governor 15:10 – God's Sovereignty Over Wicked Governments 18:54 – Examining Our Danger 23:00 – The History of Israel's Disastrous Rebellion 26:30 – Golgotha & The Prophecy of the Seamless Tunic 28:15 – Reaching Out to God While He is Near Where Are You Hiding Your Rebellion? Are you like the chief priests, hiding your rebellion in religious hypocrisy? You wear the right clothes, you say the right words, you pray the right prayers, and you give the right amount of money—but it's just religious attire covering up a heart that rejects His authority. Are you like Pilate, just wanting to do whatever makes your life the easiest? Do God's standards and God's rules get in the way of your fun, your desires, and your plans? Are you pursuing your own comfort above the truth? Are you like the Roman soldiers, with an obvious, hardened heart, finding joy in rebelling against the Lord? Hear this warning: Walking in rebellion against God is like walking toward the edge of a cliff with a blindfold on. You know the cliff is out there somewhere, but when you finally find it, it's too late. God is gracious, and His grace is extended to you moment after moment, step after step. But there is a point of no return. Why keep testing the limits of God's patience? Why keep walking blindly toward the edge? Reach out to God while He is near. Call out to Him today while you still have breath in your lungs. He is the Son of God, the Savior of the world, and He gave His life so that your rebellion could be forgiven.

Have you ever looked at the church and thought, "It's just full of hypocrites"? Maybe you've used that exact excuse to stay away from God. But what if the greatest act of hypocrisy in human history didn't happen in a modern church building, but on a Friday morning outside a Roman governor's headquarters? In this message, we dive into John 18:28-40 to witness the ultimate mockery of justice: the trial of Jesus Christ before Pontius Pilate. Here, the religious leaders were so worried about keeping up outward appearances—making sure they didn't step inside a Gentile house lest they be "defiled"—while they were literally handing over the perfect Passover Lamb to be murdered. We see ourselves in this story more than we'd care to admit. We see the waffling, political expediency of Pilate, who took the easy way out just to get to lunch quicker. And we see the crowd choosing Barabbas—a murderer and a rebel—over the King of Kings. Here is the scandalous truth of the Gospel: In many ways, we are Barabbas. We are the rebels. We are the ones who choose things that bring death and destruction over the things that bring life. But thank God that He died for rebellious people just like us. Otherwise, we wouldn't stand a chance. “Jesus answered, ‘My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would fight, so that I wouldn't be handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my kingdom is not from here.'” (John 18:36) Are you justifying your rebellion with religious activity? Are you counting your "dill seeds" while missing the weightier matters of the law, like loving your neighbor and walking in humility? Are you standing for truth, or just doing what is politically expedient? When faced with Christ, are you taking the easy way out like Pilate, or are you listening to His voice? What are you choosing today—life or death? Are you holding onto earthly things, bad relationships, or addictions that bring destruction, while shouting down the only One who can give you eternal life? "You never see a hearse pulling a U-Haul—we can't take this stuff with us. The things that matter are the things that last for eternity: loving your neighbor well, caring for the hurting, and laying down your life by His grace." #Christianity #GospelOfJohn #ExpositoryPreaching #JesusTrial #PontiusPilate #GraceAndMercy #Faith Alone

Paul's Epistle to the Romans is a profound work of systematic theology designed to explain how the gospel brings glory to God by revealing His righteousness. Pastor Daniel walks us through Romans 1 which explains how a people who suppress the truth of God heap up sin. Increase in homosexuality, murder, hatred of God, and all kinds of sin increase as unrighteousness people worship the creation rather than the Creator.
James 5:1-6 (NASB) 1 Come now, you rich people, weep and howl for your miseries which are coming upon you. 2 Your riches have rotted and your garments have become moth-eaten. 3 Your gold and your silver have corroded, and their corrosion will serve as a testimony against you and will consume your flesh like fire. It is in the last days that you have stored up your treasure! 4 Behold, the pay of the laborers who mowed your fields, and which has been withheld by you, cries out against you; and the outcry of those who did the harvesting has reached the ears of the Lord of armies. 5 You have lived for pleasure on the earth and lived luxuriously; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. 6 You have condemned and put to death the righteous person; he offers you no resistance. Eternal judgment is coming upon those who store up riches for themselves while abusing the needy on earth. 1) Pronouncement of God's Judgment (5:1) 2) Description of God's Judgment (5:2-3) 3) Charges for God's Judgment (5:4-6)

Dear friends,If ever there is a passage of the Bible that has caused controversy and division today, it is 1 Corinthians 6:9—11. There is not much doubt as to what the passage says or means, yet the application of this passage in the church and in society has led to great conflict. In today's episode, Peter outlines something of the background of the conflict within the Anglican Communion over the last two decades, before we turn to the real pastoral importance of this passage in the lives of the leaders.Yours,PhillipFreely available, supported by generosity.If you enjoy Two Ways News, why not lend us a hand?

Dear friends,1 Corinthians 6 opens with a very challenging issue of disputes within the congregation. The Corinthians seem to have blown up these minor disputes into lawsuits against each other. This raises for us a plethora of issues about resolving disputes inside the church and when it is appropriate and right to take issues beyond the church into public law courts. I'm sure you will find this issue as complex as Peter and I discovered in our conversation.Yours,PhillipFreely available, supported by generosity.If you enjoy Two Ways News, why not lend us a hand?

The Final Judgment Upon the Unrighteous: The Book of Enoch (Chapters 45-50) by Shawn Ozbun
Joe opens with a jaw-dropping story that perfectly captures where America stands in 2026. The Chicago Bulls just waived player Jaden Ivey after he publicly called out the NBA for pushing Pride Month and “celebrating unrighteousness.” Meanwhile, Miles Bridges — arrested for felony domestic violence and child abuse faced far less punishment. A Patriots coach lectures players about “inclusivity” for posting Bible verses, and the message is clear: in corporate America, faith and truth will get you canceled faster than actual violence. This is the new normal woke corporations and leftist institutions openly wage war on God, speech, and traditional values while the rest of us are told to shut up and comply.Then we sit down with Kevin Dolan, founder of EXIT — a growing fraternity of high-agency men who have decided “voice” is no longer enough and are actively opting out of the failing system to build parallel institutions: new businesses, schools, communities, and networks that put faith, family, and long-term civilization first. Kevin breaks down why he created EXIT, the demographic and cultural collapse driving it, and how men are taking a strategic “short position” on a dying society while constructing something better for their grandchildren. This is the practical, no-BS answer to the decay we see everywhere.Finally, the hits keep coming: Nancy Pelosi now warns that Republicans will “hack” voting machines (after years of gaslighting anyone who questioned them), while new affidavits from Chinese and Taiwanese workers detail how corrupted components were installed in U.S. voting machines for years. The Supreme Court just delivered another smackdown to Colorado Democrats by striking down their ban on talk therapy for kids with gender confusion, the third major reversal of Colorado in recent years. From removing a murdered woman's memorial mural because it “doesn't reflect our values,” to Democrat politicians calling Christianity “threatening,” unrighteousness is being shoved in our faces daily. The fight is here, and it must be confronted head-on.

Steve Klein -- How To Judge Unrighteous Judgement
Series: Strangers and Aliens (1 Peter)Service: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Terry Francis
In Luke 16:1–13, Jesus uses a parable to teach us how to serve the proper master and be a faithful steward of earthly wealth. I. Jesus teaches his disciples a parable about an unrighteous steward. A. An unrighteous steward squanders his stewardship by squandering his rich master's possessions (vs. 1–2). B. The unrighteous steward ponders the problem of his present situation (v. 3). C. The unrighteous steward plots a plan for his future situation (vs. 4–7). D. The unrighteous steward's master praises his shrewdness (v. 8a). II. Jesus applies the parable to His disciples. A. Problem: Lack of shrewdness in pondering your present situation (v. 8b). B. Solution: Use worldly wealth shrewdly to prepare for your future situation (v. 9). C. Warning: Your character matters, so you must be faithful! (vs. 10–12). D. Summary: Serve God, not wealth, to ensure your eternal dwelling (v. 13).

In Part Two of our series on anger, we get honest about what happens when anger stops being a tool for truth and starts becoming a trap. From the self-righteous outrage that fuels online culture to the quiet, corrosive resentment that poisons connection, we explore how ego, projection, and unhealed pain distort our sense of justice.We also ask: why are narcissists and politicians so good at weaponizing anger—and what can we learn from that about our own patterns?Join us for stories, laughter, and a few uncomfortable truths about the difference between clarity and control, anger and arrogance.

Paul is unashamed of the gospel because it is God's unstoppable power to save. The more we grasp it, the less room there is for shame. Paul recognizes there is a growing community of faith in the most influential city.Though tempted to be ashamed, a growing appreciation of the Gospel removes shame.God's power, not human effort, rescues us from sin and death.Salvation flows from God's covenant promise - first to the Jew, then the Gentiles, and continues to stretch across history to us today.Youtube LinkSermon Notes

Roadblocks For The Unrighteous • 8-17-25 AM • Pastor Grant Garber
