Your sermon of the week is Sola Fide – The Supremacy of God in Salvation by Brian Borgman. This is part seven of a thirteen-part series on the Doctrines of Grace entitled Introduction to the Reformed Faith. It seems that this series gets better and better with each installment. Look for the each additional installment every couple weeks.
Sermon
Sermon of the week: “No Lie is of the Truth” by Phil Johnson.
Phil Johnson carefully handles the issue of lying in the sermon No Lie is of the Truth. He even tackles the much debated lie of Rahab. This is a good sermon to digest on the whole issue of lying and deception.
Sermon of the week: “God Saves Bad People” by Art Azurdia.
Your Thursday sermon of the week is God Saves Bad People by Art Azurdia. This is a great message on Rahab and this sermon has even been made into a sermon jam that’s been featured on DefCon.
Those of you unfamiliar with Art Azurdia will find him a refreshing voice in a wilderness of Osteens, Nobles, Driscolls, and Warrens.
Sermon of the week: “Sola Gratia: The Supremacy of Grace in Salvation” by Brian Borgman.
Your sermon of the week is Sola Gratia – The Supremacy of Grace in Salvation by Brian Borgman. This is part six of a thirteen-part series entitled Introduction to the Reformed Faith that Pastor Borgman gave in 1998. Look for the each additional installment every couple weeks.
_____________________________________
DefCon is changing the day in which the Sermon of the Week will be posted. Instead of posting on Wednesday mornings, DefCon will now be posting your weekly sermon on Thursday mornings. And instead of making you wait till next Thursday (a week and a day from now) we will make this change immediately! So look for your (second) Sermon of the Week tomorrow and then every Thursday morning therafter.
Sermon of the week: “Hell” by Don Kistler.
Similar to the impact of Tim Conway’s message on Hell (found on this post), your sermon of the week is another sobering one. Hell by Pastor Don Kistler is one of those sermons that everyone should hear if they take God and His wrath seriously–but prepare to be very uncomfortable.
Sermon of the week: “Christ the Lord” by Alistair Begg
Your sermon of the week is Christ the Lord by Alistair Begg. This message is from his series The Gospel According to Luke and is a perfect sermon for Christmas. Enjoy.
Sermon of the week: “Grace Conceived – Unconditional Election” by Brian Borgman.
Your sermon of the week is Grace Conceived: Unconditional Election by Brian Borgman. This is a great message on the doctrine of Election. If you struggle with this doctrine or simply want to know more about it, you must listen to this sermon.
This is part five of a thirteen-part series entitled Introduction to the Reformed Faith that Pastor Borgman gave in 1998. Look for the each additional installment every couple weeks.
Listen to another great sermon on this subject by Russ Sukhia found on this previous post.
Sermon of the week: “The Labor of Prayer” by Kenneth Stewart.
Your sermon of the week is The Labor of Prayer by Kenneth Stewart of Dowanvale church in Scotland. Stewart deals not with the issue of prayer in and of itself as much as he deals with the labor of prayer. Definitely a convicting message that I wished to share with the readers of DefCon.
Sermon of the week: “Sola Scriptura – The Supremacy of Scripture” by Brian Borgman.
Your sermon of the week is Sola Scriptura: The Supremacy of Scripture by Brian Borgman. This is part four of a thirteen-part series entitled Introduction to the Reformed Faith that Pastor Borgman gave in 1998. Look for the each additional installment (in order) every couple weeks. See the last installment here.
Sermon of the week: “Our Identity in Christ” by Randall Easter.
Your sermon of the week is another good one from Randall Easter entitled Our Identity in Christ. Again, pastor Easter steps on toes as he preaches the Word without compromise.

Your sermon of the week is Grace Needed: Total Depravity by Brian Borgman. This is part three of a thirteen-part series entitled Introduction to the Reformed Faith that Pastor Borgman gave in 1998. Look for each additional installment every couple weeks. See part one here and part two here.
Sermon of the week: “Encouragement for the Church” by Randall Easter.
Your sermon of the week is Encouragement for the Church by Pastor Randall Easter. This is one of those sermons that challenges both pastor and layman alike. Expect to hear more from Pastor Easter in the near future on DefCon.

Sermon of the week: “The Glory of the Gospel” by Art Azurdia.
Your Wednesday sermon of the week is another must-hear. The Glory of the Gospel by Art Azurdia needs to be heard by everyone that shares the gospel (that should be all of us) and especially preachers and pastors. Thanks to The Atlantic Baptist for alerting me to this message.
Sermon of the week: “Soli Deo Gloria: The Supremacy of God in All Things” by Brian Borgman.
Your sermon of the week is Soli Deo Gloria: The Supremacy of God in All Things by Brian Borgman. This is part two of a thirteen part series entitled Introduction to the Reformed Faith that Pastor Borgman gave in 1998. DefCon will be posting all thirteen sermons in this series over the next few months. Look for each additional installment every couple weeks. You can find part one, A Tale of Two Gospels, here.
Sermon of the week: “The Atrocity That Pleased God” by Phil Johnson.
As a follow up to last week’s sermon on Isaiah 53 by J. Randall Easter (see here), I present this Wednesday’s sermon of the week also on Isaiah 53 by Phil Johnson entitled The Atrocity That Pleased God.
Sermon of the week: “The Suffering Servant” by Randall Easter.
Your sermon of the week is The Suffering Servant by Pastor J. Randall Easter. Pastor Easter preaches a great sermon from Isaiah 53 that I wished to share with the readers (and listeners) of DefCon. I plan to provide you with a sermon on the same subject by Phil Johnson next week.

Sermon of the week: “A Tale of Two Gospels” by Brian Borgman.
Your sermon of the week is A Tale of Two Gospels by Brian Borgman. This is part one of a thirteen part series entitled Introduction to the Reformed Faith that Pastor Borgman gave in 1998. DefCon will be posting all thirteen sermons in this series over the next few months (although not consecutively). Look for each additional installment (in order) every couple weeks.
Sermon of the week: “Biblical Womanhood” by Voddie Baucham.
Your Wednesday sermon of the week is Biblical Womanhood by Voddie Baucham. This message is also very apropos to men (so don’t you guys think you can skip out on this week’s sermon).
And don’t forget to check out Baucham’s two messages on Biblical Manhood too.
Sermon of the week: “Warning to Professing Christians” by Albert N. Martin.
Your Wednesday sermon of the week is a powerful one from Albert N. Martin.
Warning to Professing Christians is one of those messages you won’t hear in most churches that dot the landscape of American Christianity today.
Albert N. Martin delivers a convicting exposition of Matthew 7:21, a verse that I have wrestled with countless times (and still do). I’d also venture to say most readers of DefCon (who are supportive of our work here) have also been challenged by this verse at some point in their walk.
With that said, I not only recommend this sermon to the readers of DefCon who support us, but I also submit that this needs to be heard by those who give us the most resistance (like those who sit under such teachers as Robert Schuller, Perry Noble, Joel Osteen, Rick Warren, Mark Driscoll, etc.).
If you won’t listen to us (because we’re all just a bunch of prude “Pharisees”), perhaps you may give this sermon a chance and heed the warnings contained within. Although this sermon was delivered in 1994, it is just as apropos–if not more–today!
One of my favorite quotes from this sermon is in response to those who hide behind their sins with the excuse “nobody’s perfect.” Albert N. Martin says:
This is the hypocrites couch; this is the believer’s bed of thorns.
He also asks this cutting question in regards to Christians and their worldliness:
When you’ve got to suck at the world’s fountains for fulfillment, where in the world are you?

I also highly recommend another exposition of Matthew 7:21 by John Thompson entitled The Saddest Words Ever Spoken. It was DefCon’s sermon of the week for January 03, 2008. Click here to go to the post to listen to it.
Sermon of the week: “Separating From Unbelievers” by John MacArthur.
Your sermon of the week is Separating From Unbelievers by John MacArthur. And yes, in spite of what you see in the lifestyle of the average professing Christian (and even the average pastor), there actually is a biblical mandate for believers to separate from unbelievers.
And for those who will have the typical knee-jerk reaction (who won’t listen to the messages but simply assume what MacArthur is saying), he is not advocating a monastic lifestyle. He simply expounds on the biblical doctrine of separating ourselves from unbelievers including what it is and what it is not.
This is a great refresher about a doctrine that was commonly practiced by the church until recently.
