Your sermon of the week is Errors in the Modern Day Gospel. As always (with a Voddie Baucham sermon), prepare to be challenged.
Sermon
Sermon of the week: “The Way of Salvation – God Centered vs. Man Centered Evangelism” by Jim Stitzinger.
Your sermon of the week is The Way of Salvation – God Cenetered vs. Man Centered Evangelism by Jim Stitzinger. This is a great message from the 2005 Shepherds’ Conference on the difference between evangelism done God’s way, and evangelism attempted man’s way.
Sermon of the week: “Sound Doctrine; Sound Words” by Phil Johnson.
Your sermon of the week is the one you’ve all been waiting for: Sound Doctrine; Sound Words by Phil Johnson of Grace Life Pulpit and Pyromaniacs. Its subtitle should be The Pornification of the Pulpit. This sermon is from this month’s Shepherds’ Conference.
In this controversial sermon, Phil Johnson steps up and takes on the crass, crude, gutter-mouth ways of many in the modern church today, with special attention to Mark “The Cussing Pastor” Driscoll. You don’t want to miss this message. His text for this message is Titus 2:7-8.
It’s about time someone spoke out on the juvenile and profane potty-humor, profanity, and lust-filled stories that have replaced sound, doctrinal, exposition of the Bible in many churches today. I stand up and applaud Phil Johnson for having the courage to speak out and even take on the modern evangelical’s Golden Calf from Mars Hill Church.
This is a great follow-up to last Wednesday’s sermon of the week (also by Phil Johnson) entitled Programs, Get Your Programs: Exposing the Flaws of the Fad-Driven Church.
Sermon of the week: “Programs, Get Your Programs: Exposing the Flaws of the Fad-Driven Church” by Phil Johnson.
Your Wednesday sermon of the week is Programs, Get Your Programs: Exposing the Flaws of the Fad-Driven Church, by Phil Johnson. This is a great follow-up to last Wednesday’s sermon of the week (found here).
Those who hold dear to such fads as The Prayer of Jabez, the WWJD junk, the Left Behind craze, and those who adore the likes of Christianity Today, TBN, Jan Crouch, JI Packer, Tony Campolo, Brian McLaren, TD Jakes, George Barna, Ted Haggard, Joyce Meyer, Rick Warren, Bill Hybels, James Dobson, and the can’t-do-no-wrong, practically-walks-on-water evangelical favorite Billy Graham, may take issue with this message. But for the rest of us, it’s a breath of freash air to finally hear someone call a spade a spade.
Sermon of the week: “Improving the Gospel – Exercises in Unbiblical Theology” by Mark Dever.
Your sermon of the week is Improving the Gospel – Exercises in Unbiblical Theology by Mark Dever. When I heard this message I immediately pushed back all my other scheduled sermons for March to make room for this one; I simply couldn’t wait till April to make this available to the readers of DefCon.
Mark Dever–addressing pastors at the 2008 Together For the Gospel (T4G) conference–systematically explains the five major problems facing evangelism today and what we as Christians should be putting first and foremost in our message to the world. One of the problems Pastor Dever addresses in his message is one that I’ve touched on several times on this blog in such posts as:
Priorities Completely Out of Whack
Distractions, Distractions, Distractions
Pastor Dever’s sermon is a must-hear.
Sermon of the week: “Jesus’ Call to Silence” by Don Green.
Your sermon of the week is Jesus’ Call to Silence by Don Green. This is one of those very important sermons especially for those in apologetics who contend for the faith. Don Green really lays it down as he explains when enough is enough and when we should stop casting our pearls before swine. A must-hear for readers of this blog.
Sermon of the week: “Child Training” by Voddie Baucham.
Your sermon of the week is Child Training by Voddie Baucham. Gather the parents and children for this one. It is sure to convict and change your views on raising your children. This is one of the best Baucham sermons I’ve listened to so far and I highly encourage everyone to listen to this one.
For more, I recommend his book Family Driven Faith.
Sermon of the week: “Whatever Happened to Christian Unity?” by Phil Johnson.
Your sermon of the week is Whatever Happened to Christian Unity? by Phil Johnson. This is a fantastic message on what Jesus really prayed for when He prayed for the unity of Believers. Not only does Phil Johnson do a fantastic job of explaining what true Christian unity is, he also does an equally good job explaining what it isn’t!
This sermon should be required listening to all those who feel the urge to leave the “can’t we all get along” or “we’re all God’s children,” or “quit tearing each other apart” comments on DefCon. The Scriptures are very clear about what true unity is, and it’s not what most people (including professing Christians) are proposing today.
Phil Johnson also examines in this message the unbiblical push for unity between Evangelicals and Catholics. I highly recommend this sermon to the readers of DefCon, especially those who see very little difference between Christianity and Roman Catholicism.
Sermon of the week: “The Gospel of Justifying Grace” by Brian Borgman (Part 3 of 3).
Your sermon of the week is Brian Borgman’s message The Gospel of Justifying Grace (Part 3). This is part three of three on justifying grace and is a source of encouragement for believers in the assurance of salvation and the doctrine of justification. You can find part one here and part two here.
Sermon of the week: “Sola Fide – The Supremacy of God in Salvation” by Brian Borgman.
Your sermon of the week is part seven of a fantastic thirteen-part series on the doctrines of grace. Sola Fide – The Supremacy of God in Salvation by Brian Borgman is from his series Introduction to the Reformed Faith.
Sermon of the week: “The Gospel of Justifying Grace” by Brian Borgman (Part 2 of 3).
Your sermon of the week is Brian Borgman’s message The Gospel of Justifying Grace (Part 2). This is part two of three on justifying grace and is a source of encouragement for believers in the assurance of salvation and the doctrine of justification. You can find part one here.
Sermon of the Week: “The Gospel of Justifying Grace” by Brian Borgman (Part 1 of 3).
We begin a three part series by Reformed Pastor Brian Borgman with The Gospel of Justifying Grace (Part 1). This is a great series on justifying grace and is a source of encouragement for believers in the assurance of salvation and the doctrine of justification.
Sermon of the week: “No Condemnation” by Tim Conway.
Your Wednesday sermon of the week is No Condemnation by Tim Conway. As usual, Pastor Conway begins his message slowly like a freight train building up steam, then comes plowing through toward the end with a message that challenges and convicts.
Sermon of the week: “The Trinity and the Old Testament” by Don Green.
We wrap up our December series on the deity of Jesus Christ and the doctrine of the Trinity with Don Green’s sermon The Trinity and the Old Testament. For those who have been listening to this series since December 3rd, I hope it’s been a blessing to you all. For those who have missed out on one or more of the sermons on this topic, you can check out those posts below:
Sermon of the week “My Lord and My God” by Don Green.
We continue our month long series on the deity of Christ (and the doctrine of the Trinity) with this week’s sermon entitled, My Lord and My God.
Pastor Green does an excellent job throughout this five part series of unpacking the truth of Christ’s deity as revealed in the Scriptures. Next week his message will be, An Introduction to the Trinity and the following week his message will be, The Trinity and the Old Testament. I trust this entire series will be a blessing to you all.
If you haven’t already, I highly encourage you to check out the first two installments on this topic below:
Sermon of the week: “Jesus Declares His Deity” by Don Green.
We continue our month long series on the deity of Jesus Christ and the doctrine of the Trinity with Don Green’s sermon Jesus Declares His Deity. If you did not hear last Wednesday’s sermon of the week by Don Green I highly encourage you to check it out here. It was entitled John 1:1 and the Jehovah’s Witnesses.
Sermon of the week: “John 1:1 and the Jehovah’s Witnesses” by Don Green.
DefCon will be examining the deity of Jesus Christ throughout the month of December. Each sermon of the week will feature the next installment of this five-part series by Don Green.
We start off with part one today with the sermon entitled John 1:1 and the Jehovah’s Witnesses. This is a superb journey into the doctrine of Christ’s deity beginning with John 1:1. Don Green also takes this opportunity to tackle the heretical teaching of the Jehovah’s Witnesses where they twist this verse. This is a theology lesson you don’t want to miss.
With the precision of a skilled surgeon, Don Green, cuts into the lies of the Jehovah’s Witnesses with four points that systematically proves that their rendering of John 1:1 as “a god” is not only impossible, it’s not even debatable.
This is a fantastic sermon on the defense of John 1:1 that everyone should hear. Sadly the one’s that need to hear it the most (those who deny the deity of Jesus Christ like Jehovah’s Witnesses) will probably never take the time to listen to it. However, if there are any Jehovah’s Witnesses out there who are brave enough to listen to this sermon I challenge you to do so. And if (after listening to it) you wish to discuss it, you are more than welcome to do so and we will be more than happy to correspond with you.
Sermon of the week: “Monergistic Regeneration” by Arturo Azurdia.
Your sermon of the week is a two-part message entitled Monergistic Regeneration by Pastor Arturo Azurdia. Pastor Azurdia lays out the fundamentals of regeneration: specifically it’s all God and no us, because salvation is of the Lord.
Monergistic Regeneration (Part One)
Monergistic Regeneration (Part Two)
If you enjoyed these messages I recommend checking out the book Justification and Regeneration by Charles Leiter.
Sermon of the week: “Contending for the Faith” by Voddie Baucham.
Your sermon of the week is Contending for the Faith by Voddie Baucham. This is a must-hear sermon and has become one of my all time favorites. Dr. Baucham spells out very succinctly why every Christian has a duty to contend for the faith. He does this in a very powerful and inspiring way. This message could be considered the official sermon of DefCon.
Sermon of the week: “Bears, Boys, and Baldheads” by Chuck Betters.
Your sermon of the week is Bears, Boys, and Baldheads by Chuck Betters. This sermon is broken into four segments each only 21 minutes in duration. All four parts are available today for you to listen to streaming or to download to your computer, MP3 player or CD.
But be forewarned, Pastor Betters pulls no punches in this series and will definitely step on some toes, especially in regards to parenting.
Bears, Boys, and Baldheads Part One (21:04)
Bears, Boys, and Baldheads Part Two (21:17)
