From Creation to Redemption

In the beginning, God's Word went forth: "Let there be light" (Gen 1:3). The Spirit of God hovering over the face of the deep joined Himself to that Word with explosive, creative effect. And the universe was born.  As it was with creation, so it is now with redemption--God's new creation in Christ (2 Cor 4:6). God's Word is preached and, when it is accompanied by the power of His Spirit, man is born again. Sinners are saved and saints are strengthened, all by His grace and all for His glory (cf. Gal 3:1-6; Act 20:32). May God be pleased to use these sermons in your life to this end!

Passage: Acts 9:19-23

Speaker: Nick Weber

Though Paul makes a clear and compelling case for Jesus, his listeners do not thereafter repent and believe.  Instead, they plot to kill him.  The roots of our rebellion run deeper than we realize.  We cannot reason people into the kingdom.  The proofs for Jesus are significant, but they are not sufficient to save.  God has to do it!
