  • Evangelism in a Secularist Society | Acts 17
    2024/12/31
    Success in evangelism is simply proclaiming the Gospel. There is no need to fear when God is the Author of salvation. Additionally, Christianity is on the rise! The number of Christians in the world has nearly quadrupled in the last 100 years! Pastor Daniel takes us through Romans 1 and Acts 17 to learn from Paul’s evangelism method to the pagans in Athens.

  • Christmas and the Conquering Kingdom of God | Isaiah 9:1-12
    2024/12/24
    As Muslims swarm into the West, destroying what is good and true and beautiful, it does us good to remember that Christ’s coming brings the destruction of oppression. He is not waiting to be King. He is king now. Isaiah 9:1-12 begins its fulfillment in Matthew 4:12-17 as Jesus begins His ministry. He is King now (Mathew 28:18), and thus, we are to conquer the nations through the proclamation of His gospel and the baptism of His people (Matthew 28:18-20). Pastor Daniel Samms teaches through Isaiah 9:1-12 and reminds us how Christ has miraculously conquered and will continue to do so.

  • Marriage, Romance, and the Kingdom of God | Ephesians 5:22-33
    2024/11/30
    Many Christians treat individual doctrines as stand-alone theological units. They forget that God has revealed truths about Himself, His creation, and the gospel that are interconnected in His divine design. Marriage is not merely a blessing from God, it is a picture of Christ’s relationship with His Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). Understanding this helps us see the eternal significance of marriage and encourages us to delight in God’s gift of marriage. Romance, sex, and the roles of husband and wife are not mere functions, they teach eternal realities.

  • Deus Vult | How Should Christians Vote? | Phil 2:9-11, Psalm 94:20-21, Proverbs 24:11-12
    2024/10/31
    Voting is a significant topic in our present era. Notably, there is tension among Christians as political candidates seldom perfectly reflect biblical values. The Democrat Party platform explicitly supports that which God calls hates (homosexuality, transgenderism, abortion, entitlement programs, etc.). However, the Republican Party regularly puts forth candidates with questionable morals and has recently removed the pro-life plank from its platform. How should Christians vote? Should Christians vote? This sermon addresses several critical passages of Scripture related to Christ’s Kingship over all the nations, the call to not ally ourselves with wicked rulers, and the command to rescue the innocent being led away to death. While voting was not a part of biblical cultures, the command to rescue the innocent is clear. The choice is between a party/candidate that actively wishes to increase abortions and a party/candidate that does not. Faithful Christians must vote to stop abortion.

  • Deus Vult | Christ's Kingdom Over All the Nations | God Wills It | 1 Corinthians 15
    2024/10/03
    Deus Vult is Latin for "God Wills It." It was a battle cry for the Crusades, but it is here appropriated for application to Christ's Kingdom. In a time when wicked rulers seem to go from bad to worse and the effects of sin bring new crises in our culture, it behooves us to remember that God has willed and will accomplish victory over all nations. Christ is King. In this sermon on 1 Corinthians 15, Pastor Samms addresses the Old Testament prophecies related to the Kingdom of God (Daniel 7, Psalm 2, Psalm 10, and Zechariah 14:9) as well as the New Testament teaching that Christ's Kingdom has indeed come, and of its increase, there will be no end!

  • Unity of Faith | Ephesians 4:1-16
    2024/07/03
    Christians are commanded to be unified in Christ, but how do we know who is a Christian to be unified with and who is a false believer to be evangelized or avoided (false teachers)? What about denominations? How do I know who is a faithful brother or sister? More than that, what do we need to do to build unity in the Church that Jesus has bought with His own blood? Sometimes it seems that those calling for unity are the ones pressing false doctrine, but if we are not careful, those with good doctrine will cut off faithful Christians who simply aren’t mature in the faith enough to be grounded doctrinally. This sermon addresses all this and more from Ephesians 4:1-16.

  • Smash Idols
    2024/05/11
    As we approach June, faithful Christians brace themselves for an avalanche of propaganda affirming that which God condemns. For the last few decades, mainstream evangelicals have attempted to be nice in hopes of winning hearts. If you can't tell, nice doesn't work against attacking wolves. Kindness is a Christian virtue, but niceness is not. Loving your neighbor means crushing his idols and living in faithful defiance against the false gods of the age, all while joyfully preaching the gospel of Jesus' atoning death and resurrection. The history of the Christian faith is a history of building churches and destroying pagan idols. We don't win by being nice to abomination. We win with a gospel that offends. We win with taunts against the enemies of God. We win with axes set against pagan trees as the Odinists, Ba'al worshippers, and Sodomists bend the knee to the one true King of Kings. Join us as we preach the game plan for crushing the enemies of God with the Gospel of Christ.
