By preaching the real message of the Bible we also desire to see people genuinely coming to true repentance and surrendering their lives to the Lordship of Jesus Christ and actually living for God instead of just professing the Lord Jesus with their lips.rss@gospelsavingchurch.comPastor Ed Spagnoli tag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/2292941447 Sun, 29 Mar 2026 22:55:10 +0000 https://soundcloud.com/gospel-saving-church/347-jephthah-and-his-vow 01:08:38 Ed Spagnoli no 348 - Jephthah And His Vow by Ed Spagnoli 348 - Jephthah And His Vow by Ed Spagnoli 348 - Jephthah And His Vow by Ed Spagnoli rss@gospelsavingchurch.com (Pastor Ed Spagnoli)sermon,bible,jesus,gospel,saving,church,gsc,ed,spagnoli tag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/2290097054 Wed, 25 Mar 2026 02:17:37 +0000 https://soundcloud.com/gospel-saving-church/347-strong-man-samson 01:47:20 Ed Spagnoli no 347 - Strong Man Samson by Ed Spagnoli 347 - Strong Man Samson by Ed Spagnoli 347 - Strong Man Samson by Ed Spagnoli rss@gospelsavingchurch.com (Pastor Ed Spagnoli)sermon,bible,jesus,gospel,saving,church,gsc,ed,spagnoli tag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/2271586067 Mon, 23 Feb 2026 02:46:57 +0000 https://soundcloud.com/gospel-saving-church/346-gideon-and-barak 01:12:05 Ed Spagnoli no 346 - Gideon and Barak by Ed Spagnoli 346 - Gideon and Barak by Ed Spagnoli 346 - Gideon and Barak by Ed Spagnoli rss@gospelsavingchurch.com (Pastor Ed Spagnoli)sermon,bible,jesus,gospel,saving,church,gsc,ed,spagnoli tag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/2267452598 Mon, 16 Feb 2026 11:32:07 +0000 https://soundcloud.com/gospel-saving-church/345-joshua-and-the-walls-that 01:22:27 Ed Spagnoli no 345 - Joshua and the walls that fell by faith by Ed Spagnoli 345 - Joshua and the walls that fell by faith by … 345 - Joshua and the walls that fell by faith by Ed Spagnoli rss@gospelsavingchurch.com (Pastor Ed Spagnoli)sermon,bible,jesus,gospel,saving,church,gsc,ed,spagnoli tag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/2267321174 Mon, 16 Feb 2026 03:09:22 +0000 https://soundcloud.com/gospel-saving-church/rahab-clothed-in-humility 01:01:46 Ed Spagnoli no 344 - Rahab - Clothed in Humility by Ed Spagnoli 344 - Rahab - Clothed in Humility by Ed Spagnoli 344 - Rahab - Clothed in Humility by Ed Spagnoli rss@gospelsavingchurch.com (Pastor Ed Spagnoli)sermon,bible,jesus,gospel,saving,church,gsc,ed,spagnoli tag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/2230437170 Tue, 16 Dec 2025 01:53:24 +0000 https://soundcloud.com/gospel-saving-church/josephs-journey-pt-1 01:06:27 Ed Spagnoli no 343 - Joseph's Journey Pt. 1 by Ed Spagnoli 343 - Joseph's Journey Pt. 1 by Ed Spagnoli 343 - Joseph's Journey Pt. 1 by Ed Spagnoli rss@gospelsavingchurch.com (Pastor Ed Spagnoli)sermon,bible,jesus,gospel,saving,church,gsc,ed,spagnoli tag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/2225711708 Sun, 07 Dec 2025 21:07:09 +0000 https://soundcloud.com/gospel-saving-church/342-joseph 01:18:08 Ed Spagnoli no 342 - Joseph by Ed Spagnoli 342 - Joseph by Ed Spagnoli 342 - Joseph by Ed Spagnoli rss@gospelsavingchurch.com (Pastor Ed Spagnoli)sermon,bible,jesus,gospel,saving,church,gsc,ed,spagnoli tag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/918489004 Tue, 27 Oct 2020 17:22:56 +0000 https://soundcloud.com/gospel-saving-church/marios-story-god-is-real-testimonial 00:17:00 Ed Spagnoli no Met Mario at an auto parts store and had a conversation with him about God, and God showed up and met him where he was.

So when they had come together, he said to them: “Men and brethren, though I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans, 18 who, when they had examined me, wanted to let me go, because there was no cause for putting me to death. 19 But when the Jews spoke against it, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything of which to accuse my nation. 20 For this reason therefore I have called for you, to see you and speak with you, because for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.” 21 Then they said to him, “We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brethren who came reported or spoken any evil of you. 22 But we desire to hear from you what you think; for concerning this sect, we know that it is spoken against everywhere.” 23 So when they had appointed him a day, many came to him at his lodging, to whom he explained and solemnly testified of the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus from both the Law of Moses and the Prophets, from morning till evening. 24 And some were persuaded by the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved. 25 So when they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had said one word: “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers, 26 saying, ‘Go to this people and say: “Hearing you will hear, and shall not understand; And seeing you will see, and not perceive; 27 For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them.” ’ 28 “Therefore let it be known to you that the salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it!” 29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed and had a great dispute among themselves. 30 Then Paul dwelt two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who came to him, 31 preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ with all confidence, no one forbidding him. 40 of the most helpful prophesies that Jesus Christ fulfilled from the Old Testament. https://jewsforjesus.org/answers/top-40-most-helpful-messianic-prophecies/ Acts 28:16-31 ~ Now when we came to Rome, the cen… Acts 28:16-31 ~ Now when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard; but Paul was permitted to dwell by himself with the soldier who guarded him. 17 And it came to pass after three days that Paul called the leaders of the Jews together.

Their plan was brilliant and seemingly full proof, except for ONE huge factor they didn’t count on, Jesus Christ and His Word. For you see, Jesus Christ had told Paul, literally the night before we learn of this evil scheme, that Paul would witness of Him in Rome just like he had done in Jerusalem. And, when Jesus Christ says something is going to happen, then it happens. So their plans were going to be foiled and they were doomed from the get-go. We also learned of some royal treatment that Paul gets during his trip out of Jerusalem as God foils the plans of the 40 plus Jewish people to murder him. God knows how to take care of those that are His, and Paul is a walking testimony of this. What was the brilliant full proof plan of the 40 plus Jews against Paul, and why was it brilliant and full proof? In what ways did God give Paul the royal treatment for his trip out of Jerusalem?

I cover these questions and more in this message titled, “Foiled Plans and Royal Treatment”, so come and take a listen to the sermon and learn some great things about Jesus Christ.

Jesus comes to Paul in Acts 23:11 with an amazing message of comfort, despite how he was depressed and in despair. What was Christ’s message of comfort to Paul?

Matthew 6:5-15. I have a special message today, one that has impacted my life dramatically in and for Christ. A couple of weeks ago I was seeking the Lord on prayer and He was putting a sermon about prayer on my heart. So, I was about to begin preparing a sermon on prayer, and wouldn’t you know it, but God did a miracle in my life. As I was seeking God in prayer He led me to a sermon that was preached by one of my dearest mentors from my past, a fella God introduced me to just two or three years after I became a Christian. He teaches an amazing sermon on prayer and that’s what I have for you today for our message. This pastors name is Darin Shedelbower, and he pastors a small church by the name of Home Fellowship Church (no relation to Fellowship church in the Dallas TX area), and the church is located in Bradenton Fl. I hope that you are encouraged by his message just as I was. Footnote.

Paul stands before his accusers and begins to speak to them, seemingly in a respectful way saying, “Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.” He speaks to them in a seemingly respectful way, but the high priest doesn’t see it that way and commands those near Paul to strike him on the mouth. Paul, then harshly rebukes the high priest but then apologizes for doing so moments later because he doesn’t know the man was the high priest. Why would the high priest be offended with Paul’s opening statement that doesn’t seem to be disrespectful? Why does Paul harshly rebuke the high priest but then apologize moments later?

In our message today we read of the sad end of how the Jews responded to Paul’s testimonial message of how he came to know Jesus Christ. Paul is right in the middle of his testimony and the Jews get angry and turn on him to kill him again. Their response comes right after he told them that Jesus told him to take the message of salvation to the Gentiles. Well, because of the response of the Jews against Paul, the Roman commander decides to take him and basically beat a confession out of him, for after all, he must be guilty of doing something wrong for the Jews to be so angry with him that they want to kill him. What does Paul do under the threat of being beaten, knowing he is an innocent man? He asks them one very simple, yet very powerful question to defend himself. His question brings about a very interesting response from his Roman captors. How do they respond? Come and take a listen to the message and find out, and be edified in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Acts 22:1-22. In our sermon today we continue to look at the interaction between Paul and the Jews in Jerusalem who were zealous for the law of Moses. Last week we read that they saw Paul in the Synagogue and attacked him and tried to kill him because they heard that he taught people against the law of Moses, but he was rescued by a Roman commander. Today we finish his interaction with them, as God gives him the opportunity to give them his testimony of how he had an encounter with the Saviour Jesus Christ, and how Jesus changed Paul’s mind in regard to the law of Moses. Paul was teaching that the law of Moses wasn’t that important, now that Jesus Christ had come, because he realized that Jesus Christ’s death was enough to pay the high price for sin. God had showed Paul that no work of righteousness was going to save anyone from their sins, and grant anyone eternal life, and Paul was bound by his love for mankind to preach the truth because wanted them to be saved and born-again. These Jews in Jerusalem worshiped and had a zeal for God that was NOT according to the knowledge that God had given through Jesus Christ, and Paul was trying to set them straight on this matter and bring them into this light. How do they respond to Paul’s testimony? Do they receive the fact Jesus Christ is enough for salvation? Do they give up trying to be righteous before God by the keeping of the law of Moses?

Acts Ch. 21:30-40. In our message today we look at the reaction of the Jews from Asia, as well as the Jews from Jerusalem when they see Paul in the temple finishing up the fulfillment of a vow. They had heard that he taught people that Jesus Christ was enough. The Jews had heard that Paul had taught others, that they didn’t need to be zealous for the law of Moses, or the Levitical law that God had given to the Jews under the old covenant, and they were right! Paul did teach people that in Christ, that is, to those people that had put their faith in Jesus Christ and decided to follow Him, there is neither Jew nor Greek (Gentile), which means that there was no longer any necessity to keep the law of Moses in order to please God. Is it necessary to keep the law of Moses for salvation? Can someone be a good enough person to inherit eternal life, by the merits of their good works?

Acts 21:15-30. In our message today we read of the fact that the apostle Paul finally makes it to Jerusalem. He’s been heading that way for a while now. Once there, day one, he meets with some Christians, day two he meets up with the original apostles, and immediately he tells them some of the exploits that he has had serving the Lord Jesus Christ since the last time they had met. And, they are excited to hear what he has to say on one hand, but have some bad news for him on the other hand. That good and bad news is that they tell him that a multitude number of Jews had turned to the Lord Jesus Christ as God’s Messiah, which was good news, but the bad news was that these same Jews were also zealous for the law of Moses. Their being zealous for the law of Moses is really bad news for Paul. Why? Because these Jews are angry with Paul because they hear that he is teaching the Gentiles that they don’t have to follow the law of Moses. Why is it bad news that these Jews are zealous for the law of Moses? Why do these Jews think that they need to be zealous for the law of Moses even after they had turned to Jesus Christ as Messiah?

Now, I know that technical information is not that exciting because it is just technical, but there is one good thing about this kind of text, it leads to interesting and discussion worthy text.

They tell him, supposedly through the spirit, the Holy Spirit of God, that he is NOT supposed to go to Jerusalem. Why is this interesting and discussion worthy information?

Acts 20:13-24. In my message today we covered many different topics and ideas that we found in Acts 20:13-24. Topics and ideas from Paul’s travels and of a conversation that he had with the Ephesian Christian church elders. Topics such as: why he traveled, how he lived his life, and how he loved, served, and poured himself out to the Ephesians in their town and in their church. Paul was an amazing man of God, and a true example of how all followers of Christ should follow Jesus Christ today.

Acts 20:7-12. In our message today We had two main points. 1st we looked at how there is a clear pattern of the fact that there was a New Testament church that resembles the literal church as we see it today. A church service, supported pastors and leaders, a congregation, and they would all come together into some type of building as a church body, to worship and serve the Lord Jesus Christ together. Today this is a concept that many who profess the name of Jesus Christ fight against. This is a sad movement because theirs is NOT a claim that is Biblically supported. So, for my 1st main point to this message, I show you proof that the very first Christians in the Bible, actually had Sunday church services the way we see our churches running today. The 2nd part of my message focused on Paul and a fortunate young man and a terrible event that happens to the young man because of Paul’s long-winded preaching. Paul and the believers of the Asian city of Troas, come together to have their Sunday church service, on Sunday, and Paul continues on for roughly 4 to 6 hours. Well, about midnight, a certain young man gets weary and falls asleep, falling to the ground from a 3rd story window, and dies. Paul falls down on him, hugs him, and declares him alive. How did Paul go about doing this, as the scripture doesn’t record any way in which he prayed for him, or commanded him to come alive in the name of Jesus Christ? It was due to one of Paul’s main spiritual gifts from God, his gift of healing, and his faith in that gift that God would heal the fortunate young man. So, for my 2nd main point to this message I talk about the spiritual gifts God gives His kids today, and how and why we should use them, because we are supposed to be using them. There is a large amount of detail that I spoke about in this message that I left out of this overview, so come take a listen to the message and get all the details of this message.

Paul was helping people to turn to the light of the One true God, Jesus Christ, and out of the darkness of the worship of the false goddess Diana. By what Paul was doing, he was hurting Demetrius’ business which was taking money out of his wallet. For you see, Demetrius made his living off of making little silver idols of Diana. So, Demetrius gathers together a group of people from the city, who turn into an Ephesian mob, and well, the title speaks for itself.

Yet, right after 3 full months, we read of the Jews getting angry and speaking evil of “The Way”, which was to speak against Jesus Christ. “The Way” was so named because Jesus Christ was/is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

He is a Jewish man who comes to Ephesus, whom they end up meeting the synagogue there in the city, who turns out to be an almost exact carbon copy of Paul. Why did Apollos come to Ephesus?

Acts 17:16-34. In my message today, I teach through Paul’s address to the Areopagus. We open our section of scripture today with Paul in Athens Grease. He’s in Athens because the brethren in Berea send him away to escape the Jews that had come there to attack, and possibility kill him. Paul is escorted to Athens alone, and once he’s there, he realizes that he needs his assistants, Timothy and Silas. While Paul is waiting for Silas and Timothy to arrive in Athens, his spirit is roused within him out of love, as he sees all of those in the city given to idols. He looks around and sees a multiple of temples and statues that are dedicated to their pagan Greek gods, along with one statue that he sees, that is dedicated to “the unknown God”. Immediately he goes into the synagogue and into the market places and preaches Jesus Christ. Some philosophers then come along and hear what he is preaching and decide that it would be a great idea if they bring him to the Areopagus where he is then given the stage to make the unknown God, known. This is where the magic begins with him making the unknown God, known. He takes the divine opportunity given him to make an address, or sermon to the Areopagus, and preaches about their statue that was dedicated to the unknown God. How does Paul go about making the God of Heaven and earth, Jesus Christ, personally known to these people whom blindly worshiped Him as the unknown God, alongside their multiple of Greek gods? Come take a listen and find out. Paul gives a masterful sermon to these Athenians in the Areopagus. One by which, we could all take some very powerful tips away from the methods he uses.

Paul is escorted to Athens alone, and once he’s there, he realizes that he needs his assistants, Timothy and Silas. While Paul is waiting for Silas and Timothy to arrive in Athens, his spirit is roused within him out of love, as he sees all of those in the city given to idols. He looks around and sees a multiple of temples and statues that are dedicated to their pagan Greek gods, along with one statue that he sees, that is dedicated to “the unknown God”. Immediately he goes into the synagogue and into the market places and preaches Jesus Christ. Some philosophers then come along and hear what he is preaching and decide that it would be a great idea if they bring him to the Areopagus where he is then given the stage to make the unknown God, known. This is where the magic begins with him making the unknown God, known. He takes the divine opportunity given him to make an address, or sermon to the Areopagus, and preaches about their statue that was dedicated to the unknown God. How does Paul go about making the God of Heaven and earth, Jesus Christ, personally known to these people whom blindly worshiped Him as the unknown God, alongside their multiple of Greek gods? Come take a listen and find out. Paul gives a masterful sermon to these Athenians in the Areopagus. One by which, we could all take some very powerful tips away from the methods he uses.

Acts 17:10-15. Paul flees the city of Thessalonica, because of the Jews who wanted to kill him for his proving Jesus Christ to them, and he goes to the city of Berea. He doesn’t take any time off from preaching and goes right into the local synagogue to preach again to the Jews of this new city. The difference this time, with the Jew and Gentile followers in Berea from those in Thessalonica, is that those in Berea have open eyes, ears, and receptive hearts to the news that Paul gives them of Jesus being the Christ, and God ends up saving many of them. What can we learn from these Bereans? Why should we be like them? Why did God save many of them?

Acts 17:1-9. Today we looked at a few amazing ideas that God uncovered for us in our text. 1) Paul reasoned with them from the scriptures that Jesus was the Christ and of the Gospel. 2) The prophesies that Paul gave them to reason with them of Jesus and the Gospel. 3) The ways in which Paul’s listeners responded to what he told them. 1) Reasoning from the scriptures simply means that Paul gave them strong argument for the very real truth that Jesus was indeed the Christ/Messiah of God that was foretold of from thousands of years before Jesus was born in the flesh, and of the gospel; His life, death, and resurrection. Well, strong arguments need strong evidence, otherwise known as proof, to prove the arguments Paul put forth for them of Jesus being the Christ and of the Gospel. And well, giving strong evidence/proof for an argument of the Bible and Jesus Christ is also called evidential apologetics. Yes, that’s right. Paul used evidential apologetics to prove to the Jews that Jesus was indeed the Christ. This is a powerful idea Christians, and one that is often spoken against in our circles. Please take a real look at what Paul does here, it is awesome Christian. 2) So, since Paul used these proofs to help the Jews of his day believe in Jesus, today we also examined several very powerful evidences/proofs that Jesus was the Christ and of the Gospel, from the scriptures. We read over, and I explain some of the very scriptures that Paul would have shown them almost two thousand years ago. 3) Lastly, we focused on the ways that the Jews in our scripture responded to the evidences/proofs that Paul shared with them. Come and take a listen and be blown away by all of the amazing prophetic details that God caused to be true in order to help us believe that Jesus is the Christ, or Messiah, or Saviour of the world. Then once you take a listen and challenged with the proof I give you today, decide how you will respond to the very powerful undisputable info of Jesus being the Christ, or the Saviour of the world.

I spend a lot of time here because this is an area that all of God’s children, all over the world, need personal growth in. The rest of the message details out all of the super supernatural miracles that God does to deliver His innocent children, Paul and Silas, out of the hands of the wicked men that had unjustly beaten them and thrown them into the dungeon. 2) What kind of super supernatural miracles follows Paul and Silas being arrested, thrown into prison, then singing praise songs to God?

In our message today we read of Paul in a new city preaching the Gospel, and as has happened many times, as he is preaching, a couple special events take place. 1st - a crippled man who has never taken a step, from the time he was born until this day Paul is preaching, is listening to Paul’s message about Jesus Christ, the Saviour and great healer, and he has the faith to be healed, and so Paul commands him to stand up and walk, and he does. What an amazing miraculous healing this was. It was so amazing that it causes the 2nd special event to happen. His miraculous healing draws the attention of some local religious people who, after the miracle, come and start to worship Paul and Barnabas because they believe them to be their Greek gods come down in human form. A crazy outing for Paul and Barnabas for sure, but what can we learn from these events and what transpires after? Come and take a listen and find out.

Acts 14:1-7. In our message today we find Paul and Barnabas in a new city, the city of Iconium. And the reason they are there is unfortunately because they were persecuted out of the last city they were in, Antioch of Pisidia, by some of the evil hearted Jewish leaders. And, even though they had the great disappointment of being persecuted out of Antioch, they don’t get down, depressed, and quit, they move forward, and on to some more souls, who they hope want to hear about Jesus Christ. And because they don’t get down, discouraged, and quit because of the persecution they faced in Antioch, when they get to Iconium, they go right into a Jewish synagogue and start preaching Jesus Christ to a brand-new audience. How receptive is their new audience in this synagogue? What can rejection lead to in the ministry? Whose hearts get poisoned, and who does the poisoning?

Acts 13:44-48. In our message today, we look at some seemingly crazy controversial verses. In one verse, Paul speaks to the Jews that he’s talking to and speaks to them of conditional salvation. Their salvation or condemnation depended on the fact that they rejected Jesus Christ, by their free will. In another verse Luke records that the gentiles, that Paul was speaking to, were appointed for eternal life, making their salvation dependent upon God making them predestined to eternal life, which supports unconditional salvation depending on God electing them. So, which is true? Conditional election where people have the autonomous free will, so the ability to reject Christ or accept Christ as the Bible teaches, or is it unconditional election, where people are either elected to be saved or elected to not be saved, as John Calvin taught in his double-election doctrine, which ended up creating the modern day 5-point Calvinist faith. Obviously, according to what the Bible plainly teaches, I believe that God gives people autonomous free will to either accept Christ or reject Christ, and I believe that John Calvin, in his double-election doctrine, taught people of a schizophrenic false god, made up of his corrupted teachings of the Bible. So today, I give a pretty comprehensive look at what the Bible teaches against what John Calvin taught, and look at all of the scriptures in question with logic, and hit Calvin’s doctrine with some very serious death blows.

Acts 13:13-43. So, in our section of scripture today, we read that Paul and Barnabas go into one of the Jewish synagogues in Antioch in Pisidia, seemingly for a Sabbath day service and a reading of the law of Moses, but when the reading was done, the rulers of the synagogue send to them and ask them if there is anything they want to say. So the rulers of the synagogue see Paul and Barnabas, and most likely see Paul as the prominent religious Jewish Pharisee he is, but they don’t know that he is now a missionary and soldier for Jesus Christ, a carrier of the Gospel, and they give him and his companion the floor to speak to the whole synagogue of non-Christian Jews/gentiles that are there, and they have a job from God to evangelize the whole known world. The outcome of the situation, whether Paul and Barnabas knew it or not, makes them righteous Trojan horses for Christ. What is a Trojan horse? What does Paul do, once given the opportunity to speak? Does he just jump right up and preach Jesus Christ from the start or does he tell them they have made a mistake in letting them talk? Were Paul and Barnabas trying to be Trojan horses? I answer all of these questions and more in this message titled, “The Righteous Trojan Horses”, so come and take a listen and find out how God used Paul and Barnabas for His glory.

Acts 13:4-12. In our sermon today we study Saul and Barnabas’ very first evangelical journey, that God had called them and sent them on, while they served Christ in the Christian church in Antioch. God sends them out of the country of Syria, where Antioch is, across a part of the Mediterranean Sea, over to the island of Cyprus and then they begin to preach Jesus Christ and the Gospel. Why did God send them all the way to Cyprus across the sea, and not just to other areas of the country of Syria? Where do they actually go in Cyprus to preach? Do they just go out and just start preaching to all those that come across their path? Do they just go to one location to preach?

Acts 12:25 to Acts 13:1-3. We looked at two Godly ideas found in today’s studied verses, hence the title. 1st. Godly assumptions – In the Word of God there is much that He does not tell us, also much that He does not tell us plainly, and even much that He may not say in one section, but that He will add in another section or in other sections of His Word. So I take the first part of the message to discuss how to go about interpreting God’s Word correctly when these instances happen. 2nd. Fasting matters to God – Fasting is an important part of a Christians walk with Christ and God the Father, as we see God’s children fasting all throughout the Word of God. Just as we see the disciples and prophets in the church in Antioch fasting as they are serving the Lord in the church. But why? Why should Christians fast today? What does fasting show God Almighty?

Acts 12:21-24. In our message today we study a section of scripture in which we see an angel of God, so God really, strike king Herod because he accepts the adoration of the people calling him a god. So yes and absolutely yes, God strikes king Herod down for accepting the adoration that was due to God and God alone, but, was his acceptance of the people’s adoration the only reason that God strikes him and kills him? I don’t believe so, I believe there was so much more to why God killed Herod. I believe that God set up, or saw an occasion to repay Herod for his previous wickedness and evil that he brought against Christ’s church. Shortly before this section, even in Acts 12, Herod kills one of the original apostles, James, then turns his attention to Peter, and imprisons him like a harden criminal, intending to kill him, but Peter’s fellow Christians take a stand against satan and pray, God heading their prayers, delivers Peter from the desire of Herod. And, with this in mind, plus with the title of our message in mind, “Vengeance is Mind, I will repay, says the Lord”, I see God not letting Herod get away with what he did to Christ’s church, and I see God repaying Herod for His evil, because God is a man of His Word.

Our study today leads us to focus on some unlikely Jewish disciples of Christ, whom God sends to the city of Antioch to do something very special. They decide in love, to reach out to a certain group of people (Jewish by birth) but that the Jewish people had cast off, and treated very similar to Gentiles, and they preach Jesus Christ to them. What is the outcome of their decision to preach to these outcasts?

Acts 10:9-33. God gives Peter, and us that are followers of Jesus Christ today, a great lesson in the concept of love. In the ancient days of the Jews, from long before Jesus Christ lived on this earth in the flesh, until even far into the days of Peter and the apostles in the beginning of the first century church age, the Jews held a terrible attitude towards the gentile peoples of the world. At some point in time, the Jews had decided that ALL Gentiles were unclean, according to the Levitical law that God had given them in the Old Testament. This law was one that God laid down for them, as a way to live before Him in holiness and purity. This, calling ALL Gentiles unclean meant that they considered ALL peoples of the world, that weren’t Jewish, to be like the terrible and disgusting swine that God had forbid the Jews NOT to eat. Did God ever call Gentiles unclean? Just how bad was calling Gentiles unclean anyway? What attitude did the Jews have to have towards Gentiles to call them unclean?

And this Cornelius, although he was a Roman, and Romans typically held to polytheistic beliefs (multiple or dozens of gods), well, this Cornelius only believed in, worshiped, prayed to, and feared Jehovah, the God of Heaven and earth.

So special was this faith of Cornelius, Jehovah or God Almighty noticed his devotion and revealed Himself to him in a very special way, a way that God had rarely ever reveal Himself to many. How did God reveal Himself to Cornelius, and what was so special about that? How exactly did God reward Cornelius for his great faith and reverent fear of Him?

Saul had every right to leave the Christian faith after the persecution he faced in Damascus, but he didn’t, he got right back on the horse and kept on going for Christ and being obedient to Jesus, not forsaking the fellowshipping of Christians together. How do the disciples receive Saul, who is a babe in Christ still at this time? They drop the ball, and reject him, believing him to be the same evil hearted religious leader, whom had persecuted Christians, and they do not let him come in to them. What lead them to reject Saul? Fear! What does God’s Word say about God’s children living in fear? What does God’s Word say that a Christian should do with all fear that they face?

Saul confounded the Jews, proving that the Jesus, which had just revealed Himself to Saul on the road into Damascus, was indeed the Christ, or long awaited Jewish Messiah. Did the Jews in their unregenerate state understand and comprehend what Saul was teaching them of Jesus and Him being their Messiah? Absolutely, because after Saul spend days proving that Jesus was their Jewish Messiah, they get angry with him for it and conspire to kill him. If they were confused as to what Saul was saying, they would not have been moved to kill him, because by proving that Jesus was the Christ, he proved their beliefs wrong.

Acts 8:19-25. In our message today, we mainly spent our time on Simon and his desire to buy the gift of laying his hands on people to be able to grant people the power of God’s Holy Spirit, and Peter’s response to him for having this desire, for it was totally sinful. Now, this desire of Simon’s was sinful of course, and Peter rebukes him for it for sure, but it is within the way that Peter rebukes him for his sin that I bring into question in this message, because boy oh boy, does Peter rebuke him for his sin. You see, Peter’s rebuke of Simon seems very harsh, rude, and terribly unloving. And the reason I call his rebuke into question, is because of what the title of our message says. That title again: Let all that you do, be done with love. And, the reason I call Peter’s rebuke into question is because it sure doesn’t seem as if Peter rebukes Simon in very much love at all. In fact, I would have to say that Peter’s rebuke of Simon seems more like a verbal punch in the face, than any kind of love, but is it? And the problem with Peter’s seeming lack of love in rebuking Simon is that our title comes from 1 Corinthians 16, which means that it is the way that God wants His kids to act towards others. So big question here: Did Peter sin by rebuking Simon the way that he did? So since that is the big question today, I take this sermon to answer it, as well as much more. Very good message if you have ever wondered if Peter's response to Simon is sinful or not. May the Lord Bless you as you seek Him Pastor Ed.

Acts 8:5-18. In our sermon today we read of a very brave and loving Philip who goes down to the Jews most hated neighbors, the Samaritans to preach Jesus Christ and the things of the Kingdom of God to them. Even though the Jews and the Samaritans hated one another, Philip doesn’t let the hatred of his people stop him from fulfilling the great commission of Christ that He gave all of His servants in Mark 16:15. Now although the Jews and the Samaritans were bitter enemies, the Samaritans accept Philip and the message that he brings them of Jesus and His salvation, and they begin to obey the teachings of Philip by getting baptized and turning away from idolatry in that they were following a local self-made deity. I believe that at this point they turned to Christ and they were saved or became born-again, but, just a few verses from the point we see them turn to Christ, the scriptures tell us that the apostles hear of their acceptance of Jesus Christ and they come verses 15-16 ~ to pray for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit. 16 For as yet He had fallen upon none of them. These verses seem to tell us that they weren’t saved or born-again earlier. The Holy Spirit does end up falling upon them, after the apostles lay hands on them, but the question remains: The title of our sermon - When Were They Really Born-Again?

He was a super evil religious man whom definitely had the form of godliness, but denied its power.

Stephen was a mighty man of God, and did mighty signs and wonders among the people, as the Bible says, yet he was only an overseer and table server in one ministry of God’s church in Jerusalem. Plus, he must have been doing some mighty preaching and teaching while he was ministering to those he was feeding and serving in the church, because along comes some Jews from a synagogue, that didn’t believe in Jesus Christ, and they start debating/disputing with Stephen, yet they were not able to resist him, which means that he shut them down.

Acts 5:25-32. In our sermon today, we read of how the religious leaders go after the apostles and arrest them and put them on trial again, because they are preaching Jesus Christ, same as they did in Acts chapter 4. And in their trial the religious leaders verbally attack them for preaching Jesus, and telling others that they were the ones that were actually were responsible for killing Jesus, and of course they are not happy about that. So, the apostles respond by telling the religious leaders some pretty powerful things about Christ, like where His location is in Heaven, what He has become for being faithful to do what God called Him to do, and how He is now able to give repentance and forgiveness to Israel for their sins. And it’s within the last thing that the apostles tell the religious leaders about God and whom He gives His Holy Spirit to, that we spend most of our sermon. Apostles tell them that, “we are His witnesses to these things, and so also is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey Him.” Apostles tell them that God only gives His Holy Spirit to those whom OBEY Jesus Christ. That sure does sound like works, doesn’t it? Many people see sections like this, in that way, but is that what the apostles are saying? Doesn’t the Bible say that salvation comes by God’s grace, through our faith? Absolutely!!! So which is it? Does salvation come by the work of OBEYING Jesus Christ, or does it come by God’s grace through our faith? Well, by God’s leading, I discuss these things in depth in this message.

Acts 4:23-26. The title of the sermon is pretty much what I talk about today as my major focus. The apostles come to their fellow Christian family members to tell them the good news of the outcome of the trial with the religious leaders, and they rejoice together and start to shout out or pray, “Lord, You are God, who made heaven and earth and the sea, and all that is in them,”. And we take their profession of a great creator God, and speak about whether or not evolution (macroevolution, the science of one species evolving unto another) really does explain away the God that the disciples were praying to here, or whether there is any evidence for an intelligent designer God, the ones that the disciples prayed to here in Acts 4. Our journey today is very deep, but Power packed with evidence. Is there any evidence to suggest that evolution (macro), is true? Is there really any evidence to suggest that an intelligent designer God is really real? And if so, and we can see evidence of a creator god, which god are we talking about then, as the people of the world believe in many different gods. So, which god is the real God, and is there a way we can know FOR SURE? Or does everyone in the world just worship one god, but just interpret that god in their own way, hence all the different religions really just lead to the same god? I discuss and answer all of these powerful, and good questions in this message today.

The disciples are going up to the temple, the place where they had been going to church, to pray at about 3pm, and they meet this lame man, who was being lazy, as he was begging people for money. He wanted money, and a hand out, we will call it, yet God had a different gift for him. God gave him a literal helping hand up, as Peter tells the lame man to get up, but then (by faith) takes him by the hand and pulls him up, and he was instantly healed. Why was this lame man lying there and asking for money? Did he have a choice whether he was in that situation or not? Was the lame man expecting the healing miracle? Was he there for a miracle?

He hits them right where it hurts and reveals to them that Jesus is this Christ, and David's descended grandson (according to the flesh, or in his lineage), and that they were the ones responsible for killing Him. To this they respond in the way in which God desires all people to respond when faced with their true sinful condition. The sinful condition that separates them from God Almighty. They are cut to the heart, and cry out to Peter and the other Apostles, "What must we do". What does Peter say they need to do, in order to be saved from their sin? What kind of prayer does Peter lead them in for their salvation? I close focusing mainly on the answers to these questions, which you will not get, unless you listen to the message.

Today we cover the section of Peter's sermon where he quotes David's prophetic words of Christ's defeat of death in Psalm 16. But David doesn't only prophesy of Christ's resurrection, he also tells us that he sees God at his right side, and speaks to us of the hope that God's faithful have. David goes on to tell us of how good God is, in the way of how He is always there for His spiritual children. In light of this, I speak on the place worry, stress, and problems have in a child of God's life. Some of the major things I covered: 1) How God takes care of those who are His. 2) How BIG God is, in relation to problems. 3) Does a Christian have to worry? 4) And, God's size in how we view our problems.

And, instead of referring to Jesus as the Christ, Peter describes Jesus the Christ by the things He did, and the things that were done to Him, that those in Peter's audience knew of first hand. What kind of things did this Jesus of Nazareth do? What was done to Him, and who was responsible for them done to Him?

Throughout John’s entire epistle, he has been beating love, love, love, into the heads of Christians, over and over, and over again, and up until this point he has just given us a couple of ways of how we are supposed to love. That all changes today though, because in verses 2 and 3 of chapter 5, he tells us the undisputed, hands down, way of all ways, of “How” to love, in the perfect ways that God loves. He writes in verses 2 & 3 - By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. 3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. He tells Christians that they truly love other Christians by loving God, and keeping His Commandments. That seems a little backwards, doesn’t it? How does anyone love anyone else, by loving God and keeping His commandments? I spend the majority of the sermon explaining the idea that John is writing to us about, so please take a listen, and leave "a like" and "a comment". I look forward to hearing from you.

In this message John really brings home the idea of being born again, and so, that is the reason I named the sermon the way I did. And, not only did he bring up this idea, but he also gives us some of the characteristics of a person that is born again. I am born again myself, and my desire is that everyone in the world would come to be born again also, but what does being born again mean, or what does the Bible say it means to be born again. And how does someone know if they are born again, or if they are not born again. And lastly how does a person who is not born again, come to be born again. This born again idea that John addresses is very important, considering Jesus Christ Himself says in the Gospel of John, chapter 3 verse 3 “unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”. So nobody is going to get to stay in Heaven forever unless they are born again.

Look at just a couple of statements that John makes in this section. John declares in vs 6 “Whoever abides in Him does not sin.” And in Vs. 8 “the person who sins is of the devil.” Taking these scriptures at face value, the Bible says that everyone sins, which means that nobody abides in Christ, and everyone is from the devil, which in turn means that nobody is gonna be saved, but can that really be true? What about Christ’s death on the cross that is supposed to cleanse the sinner from their sins and make them clean before God spiritually. How does this apply if everyone who sins doesn’t abide in Jesus Christ, and is of the devil? The Bible says that no one that is of the devil will be saved. Do you see why this section of scripture is very confusing and difficult to understand?

He just told them to abide or stay in in what they had heard (from the disciples) from the beginning of knowing them. And in vs 26 he tells us that he gives them this command in light of what he says in his previous section, where he warns them that many antichrist’s had come teaching antichrist teachings, or teachings against Jesus Christ. Why would John give this command if once a person was saved they would always be saved no matter what they started to believe, or how they started to live? I believe that it is because a person is only going to go to Heaven IF they continue to abide IN Jesus THEEE Christ, His teachings, and His ways until they die, and I believe that John tells us the same thing here. I also believe that Jesus Himself warns us of the not continuing in Him until we die, so I go over numerous teachings from the Lord Jesus in the Gospel’s of Matthew and John.

Does God still uphold, strengthen, and stand by the sides of people today, when loved ones, or friends, forsake them, or they go through terrible and horrible times in their lives?

Today in this sermon I cover Paul’s words to timothy in regards to the holiness of the words that come out of Christians mouths, and the type of conversations we are supposed to be involved in, verses the conversations we are not supposed to be involved in.

In my sermon, I mainly focus on Paul’s advice to Timothy, the Christians in Ephesus, and us today, to GET AWAY FROM PEOPLE THAT TEACH TEACHINGS that go against the teachings of Jesus Christ, Paul, and the Bible’s doctrine of Godliness. Why would Paul write this in his letter here? Jesus makes it very clear in the Gospel of John 8:31 that only those who abide in His word are His disciples. Breaking this down; a disciple is simply a follower, abiding is living in or by, and His Word is His written teachings that we have in the Bible today. So Jesus says that only those that live in and by His Word or the teachings in our Bibles today, ARE His FOLLOWERS. And the Bible says only followers of Jesus Christ are saved and going to Heaven when they die. And so, if the opposite is true, this statement of Jesus means that people that don’t abide, or live in or by His teachings, are not His disciples, or His followers, and are not going to go to Heaven when they die. Paul writes this in this epistle because he knows that any that follow false teachings won’t be saved. Whose teachings do you abide in or follow today?

In this section of scripture, Paul does give some interesting direction to Tim, of the younger widows that the church should not support, and says, for when they have begun to grow wanton against Christ, they desire to marry, having condemnation because they have cast off their first faith. Paul is saying there that they wanted to marry because they were no longer satisfied with Jesus Christ. Can this apply to us today? Can we ever stop being satisfied with Jesus Christ? Can we stop believing He is enough for us? I believe that if it happened to the widows of Paul’s day, then it absolutely could happen to anyone even today.

They are some sad statistics for sure. The main part of our sermon focuses on Gods promises to people having stipulations and conditions. Like the promise that God gives of eternal life. God promises eternal life, not guarantees it without stipulations and conditions. One of the stipulations for a Christian to get to Heaven is that they must endure until the end, in their faith in Jesus Christ, in order to be saved.

If you died today would you still go to Heaven? Please listen along to hear what the Bible has to say on these issues, because God speaks loud and clear on them, and so do I, right from the Bible.

In our sermon today we focused most of our message on 1 Tim 4:1- Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith. This is called apostasy from the faith, which just means there will be a falling away from the simple truths of God’s Word and who Jesus Christ really is. And what we have seen up to this point in time has been a great falling away from the simple truths of God’s Word and who Jesus Christ really is, which is why the sermon is titled, the great apostasy. So in my sermon today I speak out on many of the different apostate and false beliefs that are coming out of the so-called Christian churches in our world, and I use this message to expose them by shining the light of God’s simple truths upon them. Apostasy from the true faith of Jesus Christ is a terrible thing because only the one true Jesus Christ and the true teachings of the Bible can help someone get saved. Which means that the false and apostate teachings of who Jesus Christ is and the false teachings of the Bible can’t help someone get saved. So I must ask you who read this overview today some very important questions: Are you in a church that teaches apostate or false beliefs? How do you know if you really believe in the real true Jesus Christ that the Bible talks about? How does the Bible even tell someone that they can be saved? Hint, it’s not “just pray this prayer to accept Jesus”. I am not sure if you really know the answer to these questions, but I cover these today in this sermon titled, the great apostasy. May God richly bless you as you seek Him Pastor Ed Overview- The Great Apostasy. 1 Timothy 4:1-5. I… Overview- The Great Apostasy. 1 Timothy 4:1-5. In our sermon today we focused most of our message on 1 Tim 4:1- Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith. This is called apostasy from the faith, which just means there will be a falling away from the simple truths of God’s Word and who Jesus Christ really is. And what we have seen up to this point in time has been a great falling away from the simple truths of God’s Word and who Jesus Christ really is, which is why the sermon is titled, the great apostasy. So in my sermon today I speak out on many of the different apostate and false beliefs that are coming out of the so-called Christian churches in our world, and I use this message to expose them by shining the light of God’s simple truths upon them. Apostasy from the true faith of Jesus Christ is a terrible thing because only the one true Jesus Christ and the true teachings of the Bible can help someone get saved. Which means that the false and apostate teachings of who Jesus Christ is and the false teachings of the Bible can’t help someone get saved. So I must ask you who read this overview today some very important questions: Are you in a church that teaches apostate or false beliefs? How do you know if you really believe in the real true Jesus Christ that the Bible talks about? How does the Bible even tell someone that they can be saved? Hint, it’s not “just pray this prayer to accept Jesus”. I am not sure if you really know the answer to these questions, but I cover these today in this sermon titled, the great apostasy.

But since God is relevant yesterday, today and tomorrow, we know that this section of scripture is also relevant for our day today as well, because God inspired it to be written. So, in our message today we study a very controversial section of scripture, where Paul tells Timothy in 1 Timothy 2:12 that he does not permit women to have authority over a man in God’s church, which would be saying that a woman is not supposed to be a Pastor over men. Yet today in our day and age, November 22, 2015, there are literally thousands of women pastors all over the world that claim to be Christian, and have authority over men. How can these things be so? How can women pastors claim to be Christian and lead Christian Churches and have authority over men, even though Paul says that he does not permit this. Why do women Pastor today? Why do Churches allow women to be Pastors over their churches, even though it goes against God’s inspired word given through Paul?

In our sermon today we studied one of the most powerful verses in the Bible. 1 Tim 2:5- For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus. This verse declares the fact that there is only one God, (as the world would have a big problem with that) and that there is only one mediator or someone that goes to God for us to carry our prayers to Him, the man Jesus Christ. But, there are many over the last millennia, centuries, and in our world today that would say that we can pray to other Biblical historical figures like Mary the mother of Jesus, and the saints of old, and they can take our prayers to God, just like Jesus Christ does. And so we have these two contradicting points to the one main point of this verse, but what does the whole Bible have to say on this matter? Can we pray to Mary the mother of Jesus and the saints of old, or, is Jesus really the only one that can take our prayers to God, as Paul says in 1 Tim 2:5?

Matt 27:1-10. In our sermon today we start out finding out what happens to Jesus after the bogus trial that the religious leaders hold for Him in the court of the high priest. But right after Matthew tells us what happens to Jesus after the trial, he switches to the account of the terrible end of Judas the betrayer. We find out that Judas becomes remorseful, and that he even gives back the money, all because he realizes that he betrayed the innocent man Jesus Christ. But does Judas repent of what he did to Jesus and die a saved man? So did Judas come into a right relationship with God before he died, or not. Or did Judas not really repent of his betrayal of Christ, and end up going to Hell for what he did to Christ? Many people are torn on this big question, so I put a tremendous emphasis on answering it in today’s sermon and we read about what scripture says concerning Judas and what happens to him.

Now the Jews had celebrated this Passover meal off and on since God instituted it over 3,000 years before Jesus Christ ever lived, and they had done it a certain way for all that time. But as we read today in our text, Jesus breaks the mold of the traditional Passover meal as He changes two parts of it to tell His disciples and us, that He was actually represented in the Passover, even though it was instituted over 3,000 years before He was born. How could such a thing as this be? Well today I talk about how Jesus Christ is represented in the Passover, but it is not just me speaking. I have gotten permission from Jews for Jesus (A Messianic Jewish ministry), to play one of their videos titled, Christ in the Passover in our sermon today. If you listen to this message, you will hear David Brickner, executive director of Jews For Jesus, takes us through the tradition of the Passover of the Jews, and how Jesus Christ was actually represented in this special meal.

In our message today we read about how, a hungry Jesus comes up to a fig tree (outside the season of figs), expecting the tree to have food so He can eat, but the fig tree has no fruit on it. So Jesus gets angry with the tree and curses it, and so it withers away. Now why would Jesus get angry with the tree for not having food, when it wasn't the time of year for it to have figs? And why is the punishment for the tree so severe, that Jesus causes it to wither? Really neat sermon, with lots of important details to help us understand these difficult questions.

Sometimes we may sin against other Christians, or offend them, and maybe we didn’t even mean to do it. Well in our sermon today, Jesus gives us the practical and powerful steps to take when dealing with a brother or sister in the faith that has offended you or sinned against you. If you have ever had another brother or sister sin against you, and you struggled with how to deal with it, or are dealing with a brother or sister that has just recently offended you, then God wants to talk to you today. Come and listen to how Jesus wants you to handle your bad situation. Jesus is an amazing teacher, and He loves us so very much.

Jesus teaches us a couple of very important ideas about offenses and sin in this section of scripture. A few weeks ago, in my sermon, His Character Is Love, Jesus gave an example of how Christians are not supposed to live offensively towards those of the world so they would see Christ living in us for the purpose of salvation, and today He teaches Christians about what happens to those who try to cause His children sin.

He lovingly and sacrificially set down His own needs, and served the people even though He was trying to be off the radar, or away from the multitudes. My hope is that you are encouraged and challenged. God Bless You! - Pastor Ed Jesus Christ says: "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."

We also take a look at the false ideology in America today that states that we can have "our best life now". This idea is completely unsupported in the Holy Scripture, as even Jesus Christ says in John 16:33 – "in this world you will have trouble". Jesus Christ never promised anyone that would follow Him a perfect/no problem life. He was persecuted, and He said that we would face the same, if we decided to follow Him.
