This realization led him to seek salvation and he eventually reached out to the preacher for guidance. The preacher emphasizes the importance of accepting Jesus Christ as a revolutionary act that transforms a person from the inside out, and urges young people to not be deceived by false teachings that trivialize the acceptance of Christ.","sermonType":"evangelistic","mediaType":"AUDIO","hasAudio":true,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"20:22","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID0147/SID0147.mp3","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"https://sermonindex1.b-cdn.net/0/SID0147.mp3","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID0147/SID0147.mp3","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/srt/0/SID0147.srt","vttUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/vtt/0/SID0147.vtt","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/a/aw-tozer--what-does-it-mean-to-accept-christ-part-2.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/a/aw-tozer--what-does-it-mean-to-accept-christ-part-2.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/awtozer.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/awtozer.png","topics":[{"name":"Sinners Prayer","slug":"sinners-prayer"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Matthew 16:26","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":16,"verse":26},{"text":"Mark 16:15","bookId":"MRK","book":"Mark","chapter":16,"verse":15},{"text":"John 3:3","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":3},{"text":"Acts 4:12","bookId":"ACT","book":"Acts","chapter":4,"verse":12},{"text":"Romans 10:9","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":10,"verse":9},{"text":"Ephesians 2:8-9","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":8},{"text":"1 John 5:12","bookId":"1JN","book":"1 John","chapter":5,"verse":12}]},{"id":"J3VjBAqqfcIJtIe1","slug":"your-first-mission-is-your-family-dont-let-go-of-them","title":"Your First Mission Is Your Family - Don't Let Go of Them!","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/keith-daniel/your-first-mission-is-your-family-dont-let-go-of-them/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/J3VjBAqqfcIJtIe1","speaker":"Keith Daniel","speakerSlug":"keith-daniel","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/keith-daniel/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/k/keithdaniel.png","summary":"Your family is your first mission and you should not abandon them, as the consequences can be devastating and long-lasting.","description":"In this sermon, the preacher shares a powerful and emotional story about a man who made the difficult decision to leave his wife and family.

The sermon is based on John 3:36, which states that those who believe in the Son have everlasting life, while those who do not believe will not see life but will face the wrath of God.","sermonType":"evangelistic","mediaType":"AUDIO","hasAudio":true,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"59:10","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID4258/SID4258.mp3","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"https://sermonindex1.b-cdn.net/4/SID4258.mp3","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID4258/SID4258.mp3","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/srt/4/SID4258.srt","vttUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/vtt/4/SID4258.vtt","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/d/david-wilkerson--living-under-the-wrath-of-god.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/d/david-wilkerson--living-under-the-wrath-of-god.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/d/davidwilkerson.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/d/davidwilkerson.png","topics":[{"name":"Gods Wrath","slug":"gods-wrath"},{"name":"Eternal Life","slug":"eternal-life"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Isaiah 49:8","bookId":"ISA","book":"Isaiah","chapter":49,"verse":8},{"text":"John 3:36","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":36}]},{"id":"i09_rJUDR8HL4ORb","slug":"judgement-seat-1-31-91-part-2","title":"Judgement Seat 1-31-91 - Part 2","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/leonard-ravenhill/judgement-seat-1-31-91-part-2/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/i09_rJUDR8HL4ORb","speaker":"Leonard Ravenhill","speakerSlug":"leonard-ravenhill","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/leonard-ravenhill/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/l/leonardravenhill.png","summary":"The sermon emphasizes the importance of being prepared for the judgment seat of Christ, where every person will be held accountable for their actions and choices.","description":"In this sermon, the preacher emphasizes the importance of true worship and warns against engaging in empty rituals.

The speaker concludes by emphasizing the importance of finding comfort in God alone, even in the face of rejection by others.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"AUDIO","hasAudio":true,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"45:25","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID2131/SID2131.mp3","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"https://sermonindex1.b-cdn.net/2/SID2131.mp3","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID2131/SID2131.mp3","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/srt/2/SID2131.srt","vttUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/vtt/2/SID2131.vtt","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/a/aw-tozer--john-part-44-having-loved-his-own-he-loved-them-unto-the-end.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/a/aw-tozer--john-part-44-having-loved-his-own-he-loved-them-unto-the-end.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/awtozer.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/awtozer.png","topics":[{"name":"Expositional","slug":"expositional"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Matthew 6:33","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":6,"verse":33},{"text":"John 3:16","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":16},{"text":"John 13:1","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":13,"verse":1},{"text":"Romans 5:8","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":5,"verse":8},{"text":"Romans 8:38-39","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":8,"verse":38},{"text":"Ephesians 2:4-5","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":4},{"text":"1 John 4:9-10","bookId":"1JN","book":"1 John","chapter":4,"verse":9}]},{"id":"lJY4C4m-yfLCYM06","slug":"steps-towards-spiritual-perfection-pauls-sel","title":"(Steps Towards Spiritual Perfection) - Paul's Sel","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/aw-tozer/steps-towards-spiritual-perfection-pauls-sel/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/lJY4C4m-yfLCYM06","speaker":"A.W.

The sermon emphasizes the importance of responding to the love of God and the means of grace provided by Him.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"AUDIO","hasAudio":true,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"51:46","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID3907/SID3907.mp3","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"https://sermonindex1.b-cdn.net/3/SID3907.mp3","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID3907/SID3907.mp3","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/srt/3/SID3907.srt","vttUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/vtt/3/SID3907.vtt","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/w/william-p-nicholson--unpardonable-sin.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/w/william-p-nicholson--unpardonable-sin.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/w/williampnicholson.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/w/williampnicholson.png","topics":[{"name":"Repentance","slug":"repentance"},{"name":"Eternal Destiny","slug":"eternal-destiny"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Proverbs 1:20","bookId":"PRO","book":"Proverbs","chapter":1,"verse":20},{"text":"Mark 12:31","bookId":"MRK","book":"Mark","chapter":12,"verse":31},{"text":"Luke 18:11","bookId":"LUK","book":"Luke","chapter":18,"verse":11},{"text":"John 3:19","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":19}]},{"id":"gBQRaZFcunBl3Vlc","slug":"genesis-genesis-4814","title":"(Genesis) Genesis 48:14","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/j-vernon-mcgee/genesis-genesis-4814/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/gBQRaZFcunBl3Vlc","speaker":"J.

The preacher uses the example of Jacob blessing his sons to illustrate this point. Jacob intentionally crosses his hands and blesses the younger son, Ephraim, instead of the older son, Manasseh. This pattern of God choosing the younger or less expected individual is seen throughout biblical history, such as with David being chosen as king over Saul. The preacher emphasizes the need for dedication and yielding to God in order to be used by Him, rather than relying on natural talent.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"AUDIO","hasAudio":true,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"3:16","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID9364/SID9364.mp3","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"https://sermonindex1.b-cdn.net/9/SID9364.mp3","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID9364/SID9364.mp3","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/srt/9/SID9364.srt","vttUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/vtt/9/SID9364.vtt","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/j/j-vernon-mcgee--genesis-genesis-4814.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/j/j-vernon-mcgee--genesis-genesis-4814.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/j/jvernonmcgee.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/j/jvernonmcgee.png","topics":[{"name":"Genesis","slug":"genesis"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Genesis 48:14","bookId":"GEN","book":"Genesis","chapter":48,"verse":14},{"text":"Joshua 17:17","bookId":"JOS","book":"Joshua","chapter":17,"verse":17},{"text":"1 Samuel 16:11-13","bookId":"1SA","book":"1 Samuel","chapter":16,"verse":11},{"text":"Matthew 6:33","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":6,"verse":33},{"text":"John 3:3","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":3},{"text":"Romans 12:1","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":12,"verse":1},{"text":"Ephesians 2:8-9","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":8}]},{"id":"A5yaF3dw2tq9GjbT","slug":"question-and-answer-part-3-w-paul-washer","title":"Question and Answer - Part 3 (W/ Paul Washer)","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/voddie-baucham/question-and-answer-part-3-w-paul-washer/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/A5yaF3dw2tq9GjbT","speaker":"Voddie Baucham","speakerSlug":"voddie-baucham","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/voddie-baucham/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/v/voddiebaucham.png","summary":"The problem with unbiblical salvation practices is that they lead to false assurance and a heretical understanding of salvation, which can cripple a child's spiritual life.","description":"Voddie Baucham, in his sermon with Paul Washer, discusses the nature of genuine salvation, particularly in children, emphasizing that a lack of dramatic change does not equate to a lack of authenticity in faith. He argues that the true testimony of grace is when children grow up with Christian values and are saved at a young age, rather than having to experience a dramatic transformation from a life of sin. Baucham warns against the artificial means often used to lead children to profess faith, advocating for a nurturing approach that allows children to express their beliefs while ensuring they understand the depth of true conversion. He stresses the importance of guiding children in their faith journey rather than rushing to declare them saved based on superficial indicators. Ultimately, Baucham calls for a return to biblical understanding of salvation, free from heretical practices that can lead to false assurance.","sermonType":"teaching","mediaType":"AUDIO","hasAudio":true,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"11:46","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID17769/SID17769.mp3","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"https://sermonindex1.b-cdn.net/17/SID17769.mp3","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID17769/SID17769.mp3","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/srt/17/SID17769.srt","vttUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/vtt/17/SID17769.vtt","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/v/voddie-baucham--question-and-answer-part-3-w-paul-washer.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/v/voddie-baucham--question-and-answer-part-3-w-paul-washer.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/v/voddiebaucham.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/v/voddiebaucham.png","topics":[{"name":"Genuine Salvation","slug":"genuine-salvation"},{"name":"Nurturing Faith in Children","slug":"nurturing-faith-in-children"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Proverbs 22:6","bookId":"PRO","book":"Proverbs","chapter":22,"verse":6},{"text":"Matthew 18:3","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":18,"verse":3},{"text":"John 3:3","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":3},{"text":"Acts 16:31","bookId":"ACT","book":"Acts","chapter":16,"verse":31},{"text":"Romans 10:9-10","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":10,"verse":9},{"text":"Galatians 2:20","bookId":"GAL","book":"Galatians","chapter":2,"verse":20},{"text":"Ephesians 2:8-9","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":8},{"text":"2 Timothy 3:15","bookId":"2TI","book":"2 Timothy","chapter":3,"verse":15},{"text":"1 Peter 2:2","bookId":"1PE","book":"1 Peter","chapter":2,"verse":2},{"text":"1 John 5:13","bookId":"1JN","book":"1 John","chapter":5,"verse":13}]},{"id":"vaNlRqI3XNnkBsol","slug":"ten-indictments-against-the-modern-church-full-service-with-music","title":"Ten Indictments Against the Modern Church - Full Service With Music","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/paul-washer/ten-indictments-against-the-modern-church-full-service-with-music/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/vaNlRqI3XNnkBsol","speaker":"Paul Washer","speakerSlug":"paul-washer","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/paul-washer/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/p/paulwasher.png","summary":"Paul Washer calls for a revival and reformation in the church, emphasizing the sufficiency of Scripture and the importance of grace and obedience.","description":"In this sermon, the preacher emphasizes the importance of focusing on spiritual matters rather than worldly distractions.

He also criticizes the idea of the missing link in evolution, stating that the true missing link is the spiritual connection between humans and God.","sermonType":"evangelistic","mediaType":"AUDIO","hasAudio":true,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"1:04:19","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID19268/SID19268.mp3","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"https://sermonindex1.b-cdn.net/19/SID19268.mp3","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID19268/SID19268.mp3","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/srt/19/SID19268.srt","vttUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/vtt/19/SID19268.vtt","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/a/alan-bartley--ye-must-be-born-again.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/a/alan-bartley--ye-must-be-born-again.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/alanbartley.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/alanbartley.png","topics":[{"name":"New Birth","slug":"new-birth"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Genesis 6:19-20","bookId":"GEN","book":"Genesis","chapter":6,"verse":19},{"text":"Matthew 7:7","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":7,"verse":7},{"text":"Matthew 22:37","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":22,"verse":37},{"text":"John 3:3","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":3},{"text":"John 14:6","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":14,"verse":6},{"text":"Romans 10:9","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":10,"verse":9},{"text":"Ephesians 2:8-9","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":8}]},{"id":"t6adQs98YK16WraD","slug":"singles-serving-the-lord-without-distraction-part-1","title":"Singles Serving the Lord Without Distraction - Part 1","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/bob-hoekstra/singles-serving-the-lord-without-distraction-part-1/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/t6adQs98YK16WraD","speaker":"Bob Hoekstra","speakerSlug":"bob-hoekstra","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/bob-hoekstra/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/b/bobhoekstra.png","summary":"Singles can serve the Lord without distraction by seeking God for an undivided heart and receiving a new heart and spirit through regeneration and daily transformation.","description":"This sermon emphasizes the importance of serving the Lord without distraction, focusing on seeking an undivided heart and finding completeness in Christ.

However, the sermon points out that these outward facts do not address the sin question or the atonement. The heart of the Gospel, according to the preacher, is found in Mark 10:45, where Jesus states that he came not to be served but to serve and give his life as a ransom for many. This verse is seen as the central message of the cross.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"AUDIO","hasAudio":true,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"37:24","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID15176/SID15176.mp3","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"https://sermonindex1.b-cdn.net/15/SID15176.mp3","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID15176/SID15176.mp3","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/srt/15/SID15176.srt","vttUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/vtt/15/SID15176.vtt","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/i/ian-paisley--the-musts-of-the-lords-condemnation.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/i/ian-paisley--the-musts-of-the-lords-condemnation.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/i/ianpaisley.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/i/ianpaisley.png","topics":[{"name":"The Cross","slug":"the-cross"},{"name":"Atonement","slug":"atonement"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Matthew 6:33","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":6,"verse":33},{"text":"Mark 1:31","bookId":"MRK","book":"Mark","chapter":1,"verse":31},{"text":"Mark 8:31","bookId":"MRK","book":"Mark","chapter":8,"verse":31},{"text":"Mark 10:45","bookId":"MRK","book":"Mark","chapter":10,"verse":45},{"text":"Luke 8:27-38","bookId":"LUK","book":"Luke","chapter":8,"verse":27},{"text":"John 3:16","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":16}]},{"id":"gcXBUZH2fRe4e_Iy","slug":"it-is-time-to-pray","title":"It Is Time to Pray","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/brian-brodersen/it-is-time-to-pray/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/gcXBUZH2fRe4e_Iy","speaker":"Brian Brodersen","speakerSlug":"brian-brodersen","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/brian-brodersen/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/b/brianbrodersen.png","summary":"Brian Brodersen emphasizes the importance of prayer and making a personal decision to accept Jesus Christ for eternal salvation.","description":"In this sermon, the speaker, Franklin Graham, begins by expressing his surprise at being invited to speak and his intention to keep his message brief.

The younger son represents the average, unregenerate man who is solely interested in material possessions and earthly goods.

The younger son then goes to a far country and wastes his substance in debauchery, symbolizing how every non-Christian is wasting the blessings and gifts given to them by God. However, the story takes a turn when the younger son realizes his mistake and returns to his father, who lovingly welcomes him back. This illustrates God's love for sinners and the provision of forgiveness through Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross.","sermonType":"evangelistic","mediaType":"AUDIO","hasAudio":true,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"30:24","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID10103/SID10103.mp3","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"https://sermonindex1.b-cdn.net/10/SID10103.mp3","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID10103/SID10103.mp3","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/srt/10/SID10103.srt","vttUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/vtt/10/SID10103.vtt","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/w/welcome-detweiler--sunday-night-meditations-05-message-and-song-1950s.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/w/welcome-detweiler--sunday-night-meditations-05-message-and-song-1950s.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/w/welcomedetweiler.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/w/welcomedetweiler.png","topics":[{"name":"Gods Love","slug":"gods-love"},{"name":"Forgiveness Through Christ","slug":"forgiveness-through-christ"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Proverbs 14:12","bookId":"PRO","book":"Proverbs","chapter":14,"verse":12},{"text":"Proverbs 23:21","bookId":"PRO","book":"Proverbs","chapter":23,"verse":21},{"text":"Matthew 6:33","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":6,"verse":33},{"text":"Matthew 7:21","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":7,"verse":21},{"text":"Luke 15:11-32","bookId":"LUK","book":"Luke","chapter":15,"verse":11},{"text":"John 3:16","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":16},{"text":"Romans 6:23","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":6,"verse":23}]},{"id":"XnXfBU44h9Ftc7Ez","slug":"on-eagles-wings-pt-62","title":"On Eagles' Wings Pt 62","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/don-courville/on-eagles-wings-pt-62/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/XnXfBU44h9Ftc7Ez","speaker":"Don Courville","speakerSlug":"don-courville","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/don-courville/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/d/doncourville.png","summary":"The sermon encourages believers to trust in God's provision, embrace the significance of Jesus' birth, and seek personal revival through prayer and relationship with Christ.","description":"In this sermon, the preacher emphasizes that it is possible for individuals to experience a revival in their personal lives.

He contrasts the theology of glory, which relies on self-righteousness and human effort, with the theology of the cross, which recognizes our complete dependence on Christ's sacrifice for righteousness. Wilkerson highlights that many people, even in the church, are seeking fulfillment through self-improvement rather than embracing the transformative power of the cross. He calls for a shift from self-reliance to a reliance on Christ's work, urging believers to acknowledge their need for grace and the righteousness that comes through faith alone. Ultimately, he invites the congregation to embrace the cross as the source of true freedom and identity in Christ.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"AUDIO","hasAudio":true,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"42:19","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID30833/SID30833.mp3","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"https://sermonindex1.b-cdn.net/30/SID30833.mp3","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID30833/SID30833.mp3","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/srt/30/SID30833.srt","vttUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/vtt/30/SID30833.vtt","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/g/gary-wilkerson--glory-only-in-the-cross.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/g/gary-wilkerson--glory-only-in-the-cross.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/g/garywilkerson.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/g/garywilkerson.png","topics":[{"name":"Cross of Christ","slug":"cross-of-christ"},{"name":"Righteousness through Faith","slug":"righteousness-through-faith"},{"name":"Theology of the Cross","slug":"theology-of-the-cross"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Isaiah 53:5","bookId":"ISA","book":"Isaiah","chapter":53,"verse":5},{"text":"John 3:16","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":16},{"text":"Romans 5:20","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":5,"verse":20},{"text":"Romans 7:9","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":7,"verse":9},{"text":"1 Corinthians 1:18","bookId":"1CO","book":"1 Corinthians","chapter":1,"verse":18},{"text":"2 Corinthians 5:21","bookId":"2CO","book":"2 Corinthians","chapter":5,"verse":21},{"text":"Galatians 6:14","bookId":"GAL","book":"Galatians","chapter":6,"verse":14},{"text":"Ephesians 2:8-9","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":8},{"text":"Philippians 3:3","bookId":"PHP","book":"Philippians","chapter":3,"verse":3},{"text":"1 Peter 2:24","bookId":"1PE","book":"1 Peter","chapter":2,"verse":24}]},{"id":"ef_CBaIA2UfAcxc0","slug":"the-full-meaning-of-life-part-3","title":"The Full Meaning of Life - Part 3","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/paris-reidhead/the-full-meaning-of-life-part-3/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/ef_CBaIA2UfAcxc0","speaker":"Paris Reidhead","speakerSlug":"paris-reidhead","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/paris-reidhead/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/p/parisreidhead.png","summary":"God's love is a choice, not just a feeling, and is a commitment to seek the highest good of man and himself in relation to man.","description":"In this sermon, the speaker emphasizes that our emotions are not under our control and we do not become angry or feel certain emotions simply because we decide to.

Ultimately, Tozer calls for a return to the understanding that accepting Christ means embracing His lordship and the obligation to obey Him.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"AUDIO","hasAudio":true,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"40:32","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID30113/SID30113.mp3","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"https://sermonindex1.b-cdn.net/30/SID30113.mp3","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"https://archive.org/download/SERMONINDEX_SID30113/SID30113.mp3","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/srt/30/SID30113.srt","vttUrl":"https://sermonindex3.b-cdn.net/vtt/30/SID30113.vtt","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/a/aw-tozer--be-obedient-and-sin-not.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/a/aw-tozer--be-obedient-and-sin-not.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/awtozer.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/awtozer.png","topics":[{"name":"Obedience","slug":"obedience"},{"name":"Lordship Of Christ","slug":"lordship-of-christ"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Psalm 103:20","bookId":"PSA","book":"Psalms","chapter":103,"verse":20},{"text":"Ezekiel 1:20-21","bookId":"EZK","book":"Ezekiel","chapter":1,"verse":20},{"text":"Matthew 11:30","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":11,"verse":30},{"text":"John 3:4","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":4},{"text":"Romans 5:19","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":5,"verse":19},{"text":"Romans 10:9-10","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":10,"verse":9},{"text":"Ephesians 2:2","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":2},{"text":"1 Peter 1:2","bookId":"1PE","book":"1 Peter","chapter":1,"verse":2},{"text":"1 Peter 1:14","bookId":"1PE","book":"1 Peter","chapter":1,"verse":14},{"text":"1 John 2:3-4","bookId":"1JN","book":"1 John","chapter":2,"verse":3}]},{"id":"aSwjoVcBAiYNiqlL","slug":"what-must-i-do-to-be-saved","title":"What Must I Do to Be Saved?","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/dl-moody/what-must-i-do-to-be-saved/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/aSwjoVcBAiYNiqlL","speaker":"D.L.

Ryle emphasizes the profound significance of the conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus, focusing on the necessity of being born again to enter the kingdom of God. He illustrates how Nicodemus, despite his initial timid approach to faith, ultimately became a strong witness for Christ, demonstrating that even weak beginnings in faith can lead to a strong Christian life. Ryle explains that the new birth is a complete transformation of the heart and spirit, which is essential for salvation and cannot be achieved by human effort alone. He uses the metaphor of the wind to describe the mysterious yet evident work of the Holy Spirit in the new birth, urging believers to recognize the visible fruits of this transformation in their lives. The sermon challenges listeners to reflect on their own spiritual rebirth and the evidence of the Spirit's work within them.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"TEXT","hasAudio":false,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"","vttUrl":"","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/j/jc-ryle--a-conversation-with-nicodemus.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/j/jc-ryle--a-conversation-with-nicodemus.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/j/jcryle.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/j/jcryle.png","topics":[{"name":"Transformation in Christ","slug":"transformation-in-christ"},{"name":"New Birth","slug":"new-birth"}],"scripture":[{"text":"John 3:5","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":5}]},{"id":"YKZppO2dBEhUxy_q","slug":"empty-to-be-filled","title":"Empty to Be Filled","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/shane-idleman/empty-to-be-filled/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/YKZppO2dBEhUxy_q","speaker":"Shane Idleman","speakerSlug":"shane-idleman","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/shane-idleman/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/s/shaneidleman.png","summary":"To be filled with God's power and presence, we must first be empty of ourselves and humble before Him.","description":"Shane Idleman emphasizes the necessity of being empty to be filled with the Holy Spirit, challenging the cultural norms of self-reliance and pride.

Ultimately, Pink calls for a clear understanding of these two natures to avoid confusion and to live a life that honors God.","sermonType":"teaching","mediaType":"TEXT","hasAudio":false,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"","vttUrl":"","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/a/aw-pink--the-two-natures.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/a/aw-pink--the-two-natures.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/awpink.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/awpink.png","topics":[{"name":"Two Natures","slug":"two-natures"},{"name":"Human Responsibility","slug":"human-responsibility"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Psalm 51:4","bookId":"PSA","book":"Psalms","chapter":51,"verse":4},{"text":"John 3:6","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":6},{"text":"John 3:8","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":8},{"text":"Romans 3:20","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":3,"verse":20},{"text":"Galatians 5:17","bookId":"GAL","book":"Galatians","chapter":5,"verse":17},{"text":"Ephesians 5:26","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":5,"verse":26},{"text":"Titus 3:5","bookId":"TIT","book":"Titus","chapter":3,"verse":5},{"text":"Hebrews 2:17","bookId":"HEB","book":"Hebrews","chapter":2,"verse":17},{"text":"1 Peter 1:23","bookId":"1PE","book":"1 Peter","chapter":1,"verse":23},{"text":"1 John 3:9","bookId":"1JN","book":"1 John","chapter":3,"verse":9}]},{"id":"RGiM_bWKP_HsCJ1E","slug":"the-place-which-is-called-calvary","title":"The Place Which Is Called Calvary","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/ch-spurgeon/the-place-which-is-called-calvary/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/RGiM_bWKP_HsCJ1E","speaker":"C.H.

The dialogue concludes with a strong affirmation that God's love is the foundation of redemption, not a response to divine anger.","sermonType":"teaching","mediaType":"TEXT","hasAudio":false,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"","vttUrl":"","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/w/william-law--the-spirit-of-love-part-3.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/w/william-law--the-spirit-of-love-part-3.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/w/williamlaw.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/w/williamlaw.png","topics":[{"name":"God's Love","slug":"god's-love"},{"name":"Atonement and Redemption","slug":"atonement-and-redemption"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Isaiah 43:25","bookId":"ISA","book":"Isaiah","chapter":43,"verse":25},{"text":"John 3:16","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":16},{"text":"Romans 1:18","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":1,"verse":18},{"text":"Romans 5:8","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":5,"verse":8},{"text":"2 Corinthians 5:19","bookId":"2CO","book":"2 Corinthians","chapter":5,"verse":19},{"text":"Ephesians 1:3","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":1,"verse":3},{"text":"Ephesians 2:4-5","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":4},{"text":"Colossians 1:13-14","bookId":"COL","book":"Colossians","chapter":1,"verse":13},{"text":"1 Peter 5:10","bookId":"1PE","book":"1 Peter","chapter":5,"verse":10},{"text":"1 John 4:8","bookId":"1JN","book":"1 John","chapter":4,"verse":8}]},{"id":"PKgPmJSh8cMldEc9","slug":"amazing-facts-6-amazing-facts-about-the-final-judgment","title":"(Amazing Facts) 6.

Ultimately, the sermon calls for a transformation that prioritizes spiritual desires over physical ones.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"TEXT","hasAudio":false,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"","vttUrl":"","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/c/chuck-smith--daniel-61.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/c/chuck-smith--daniel-61.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/c/chucksmith.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/c/chucksmith.png","topics":[{"name":"Spiritual Leadership","slug":"spiritual-leadership"},{"name":"Living with Purpose","slug":"living-with-purpose"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Daniel 6:3","bookId":"DAN","book":"Daniel","chapter":6,"verse":3},{"text":"John 3:3","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":3},{"text":"John 10:10","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":10,"verse":10},{"text":"Romans 8:16","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":8,"verse":16},{"text":"1 Corinthians 2:14","bookId":"1CO","book":"1 Corinthians","chapter":2,"verse":14},{"text":"2 Corinthians 5:17","bookId":"2CO","book":"2 Corinthians","chapter":5,"verse":17},{"text":"Galatians 5:16","bookId":"GAL","book":"Galatians","chapter":5,"verse":16},{"text":"Ephesians 2:1-5","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":1},{"text":"Philippians 4:7","bookId":"PHP","book":"Philippians","chapter":4,"verse":7},{"text":"Colossians 3:2","bookId":"COL","book":"Colossians","chapter":3,"verse":2}]},{"id":"-7n0LT6Xta0ZNXLN","slug":"jeremiah-3314","title":"Jeremiah 33:14","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/chuck-smith/jeremiah-3314/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/-7n0LT6Xta0ZNXLN","speaker":"Chuck Smith","speakerSlug":"chuck-smith","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/chuck-smith/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/c/chucksmith.png","summary":"God promises a glorious future for His people, including the restoration of Jerusalem and the coming of the Messiah.","description":"Chuck Smith emphasizes the contrast between the dark days ahead for Judah and the glorious future God has planned for them, as revealed to Jeremiah.

He encourages believers to embrace these truths, as they are foundational to the Christian faith and the assurance of salvation.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"TEXT","hasAudio":false,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"","vttUrl":"","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/w/william-macdonald--the-incarnation-and-resurrection.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/w/william-macdonald--the-incarnation-and-resurrection.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/w/williammacdonald.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/w/williammacdonald.png","topics":[{"name":"Incarnation","slug":"incarnation"},{"name":"Resurrection","slug":"resurrection"}],"scripture":[{"text":"John 1:14","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":1,"verse":14},{"text":"John 3:16","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":16},{"text":"Acts 4:12","bookId":"ACT","book":"Acts","chapter":4,"verse":12},{"text":"Romans 5:8","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":5,"verse":8},{"text":"Romans 10:9","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":10,"verse":9},{"text":"1 Corinthians 15:3-4","bookId":"1CO","book":"1 Corinthians","chapter":15,"verse":3},{"text":"Ephesians 2:8-9","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":8},{"text":"Philippians 2:9-11","bookId":"PHP","book":"Philippians","chapter":2,"verse":9},{"text":"Hebrews 10:12","bookId":"HEB","book":"Hebrews","chapter":10,"verse":12},{"text":"1 Peter 3:18","bookId":"1PE","book":"1 Peter","chapter":3,"verse":18}]},{"id":"GkGPdVMKkhFbAKk2","slug":"the-law-and-the-gospel","title":"The Law and the Gospel","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/wj-erdman/the-law-and-the-gospel/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/GkGPdVMKkhFbAKk2","speaker":"W.J.

Tozer encourages believers to trust in God's declaration of love and to embrace the sanctifying grace of Christ to fully enjoy this love.","sermonType":"topical","mediaType":"TEXT","hasAudio":false,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"","vttUrl":"","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/a/aw-tozer--on-becoming-more-lovable.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/a/aw-tozer--on-becoming-more-lovable.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/awtozer.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/a/awtozer.png","topics":[{"name":"Christlikeness","slug":"christlikeness"},{"name":"God's Love","slug":"god's-love"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Psalm 136:1","bookId":"PSA","book":"Psalms","chapter":136,"verse":1},{"text":"Isaiah 54:10","bookId":"ISA","book":"Isaiah","chapter":54,"verse":10},{"text":"John 3:16","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":16},{"text":"Romans 5:8","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":5,"verse":8},{"text":"Romans 8:38-39","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":8,"verse":38},{"text":"2 Corinthians 5:17","bookId":"2CO","book":"2 Corinthians","chapter":5,"verse":17},{"text":"Galatians 2:20","bookId":"GAL","book":"Galatians","chapter":2,"verse":20},{"text":"Ephesians 2:4-5","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":4},{"text":"1 John 3:1","bookId":"1JN","book":"1 John","chapter":3,"verse":1},{"text":"1 John 4:9-10","bookId":"1JN","book":"1 John","chapter":4,"verse":9}]},{"id":"Bwiv1opYyBBHxjBw","slug":"sound-conversion","title":"Sound Conversion","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/aw-tozer/sound-conversion/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/Bwiv1opYyBBHxjBw","speaker":"A.W.

The sermon concludes with the assurance that God has reached out to humanity, inviting them to rest in His grace.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"TEXT","hasAudio":false,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"","vttUrl":"","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/c/chuck-smith--genesis-111.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/c/chuck-smith--genesis-111.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/c/chucksmith.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/c/chucksmith.png","topics":[{"name":"Human Efforts vs. Divine Grace","slug":"human-efforts-vs-divine-grace"},{"name":"The Nature of Religion","slug":"the-nature-of-religion"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Genesis 11:1-9","bookId":"GEN","book":"Genesis","chapter":11,"verse":1},{"text":"Matthew 11:28","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":11,"verse":28},{"text":"John 3:16","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":16},{"text":"Hebrews 4:9-10","bookId":"HEB","book":"Hebrews","chapter":4,"verse":9},{"text":"Revelation 17:5","bookId":"REV","book":"Revelation","chapter":17,"verse":5}]},{"id":"PBVPjZCHlr_0Lb3e","slug":"genesis-222","title":"Genesis 22:2","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/chuck-smith/genesis-222/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/PBVPjZCHlr_0Lb3e","speaker":"Chuck Smith","speakerSlug":"chuck-smith","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/chuck-smith/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/c/chucksmith.png","summary":"God's promise to Abraham and the sacrifice of Isaac demonstrate the importance of faith, trust, and obedience in our relationship with God.","description":"Chuck Smith emphasizes the significance of Isaac as Abraham's most cherished possession, highlighting the long wait for God's promise of a son and the joy that followed Isaac's miraculous birth.

He concludes by emphasizing God's desire for all to be saved and refuting the idea of a limited atonement that excludes certain individuals from the possibility of salvation.","sermonType":"teaching","mediaType":"TEXT","hasAudio":false,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"","vttUrl":"","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/d/david-servant--calvinisms-limited-atonement.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/d/david-servant--calvinisms-limited-atonement.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/d/davidservant.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/d/davidservant.png","topics":[{"name":"Calvinism","slug":"calvinism"},{"name":"Atonement","slug":"atonement"}],"scripture":[{"text":"John 3:16","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":16},{"text":"Romans 11:32","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":11,"verse":32},{"text":"2 Corinthians 5:14","bookId":"2CO","book":"2 Corinthians","chapter":5,"verse":14},{"text":"1 Timothy 2:3","bookId":"1TI","book":"1 Timothy","chapter":2,"verse":3},{"text":"1 Timothy 4:10","bookId":"1TI","book":"1 Timothy","chapter":4,"verse":10},{"text":"Hebrews 2:9","bookId":"HEB","book":"Hebrews","chapter":2,"verse":9},{"text":"2 Peter 2:1","bookId":"2PE","book":"2 Peter","chapter":2,"verse":1},{"text":"1 John 2:2","bookId":"1JN","book":"1 John","chapter":2,"verse":2}]},{"id":"z9214DQs4HuPvWCg","slug":"day-134-acts-26","title":"Day 134, Acts 26","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/david-servant/day-134-acts-26/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/z9214DQs4HuPvWCg","speaker":"David Servant","speakerSlug":"david-servant","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/david-servant/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/d/davidservant.png","summary":"Paul's testimony of his divine encounter and change of heart is a powerful call to repentance and faith in Jesus.","description":"David Servant preaches about Paul's defense before Agrippa, Bernice, and Festus, highlighting how Paul used the opportunity to proclaim the gospel rather than just prove his innocence.

Ultimately, Jesus' obedience and sacrifice provide the only path to righteousness before God.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"TEXT","hasAudio":false,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"","vttUrl":"","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/d/david-wilkerson--jesus-ransomed-us.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/d/david-wilkerson--jesus-ransomed-us.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/d/davidwilkerson.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/d/davidwilkerson.png","topics":[{"name":"Redemption","slug":"redemption"},{"name":"Fulfillment of the Law","slug":"fulfillment-of-the-law"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Isaiah 53:5","bookId":"ISA","book":"Isaiah","chapter":53,"verse":5},{"text":"Matthew 5:17","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":5,"verse":17},{"text":"John 3:16","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":16},{"text":"Romans 3:20-22","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":3,"verse":20},{"text":"Romans 5:12","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":5,"verse":12},{"text":"2 Corinthians 5:21","bookId":"2CO","book":"2 Corinthians","chapter":5,"verse":21},{"text":"Galatians 2:16","bookId":"GAL","book":"Galatians","chapter":2,"verse":16},{"text":"Ephesians 1:7","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":1,"verse":7},{"text":"Hebrews 10:14","bookId":"HEB","book":"Hebrews","chapter":10,"verse":14},{"text":"1 Peter 2:24","bookId":"1PE","book":"1 Peter","chapter":2,"verse":24}]},{"id":"vhrJFV07l3ujKUQ3","slug":"proclaiming-the-victory","title":"Proclaiming the Victory","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/david-wilkerson/proclaiming-the-victory/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/vhrJFV07l3ujKUQ3","speaker":"David Wilkerson","speakerSlug":"david-wilkerson","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/david-wilkerson/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/d/davidwilkerson.png","summary":"After being sprinkled with the blood of Jesus, we are commanded to go in peace, trust in the sprinkling, praise God with a thankful heart, and proclaim the victory of Jesus' blood in our lives.","description":"David Wilkerson emphasizes the obligations that come with being sprinkled by the blood of Jesus, urging believers to live in peace without doubt and to offer heartfelt praise to God.

Newman highlights the importance of understanding the true meaning and significance of sacraments as visible signs of an inward spiritual grace given by Christ.","sermonType":"expository","mediaType":"TEXT","hasAudio":false,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"","vttUrl":"","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/j/jh-newman--the-sacraments.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/j/jh-newman--the-sacraments.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/j/johnhenrynewman.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/j/johnhenrynewman.png","topics":[{"name":"Sacramental Theology","slug":"sacramental-theology"},{"name":"Christian Rituals","slug":"christian-rituals"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Matthew 28:19","bookId":"MAT","book":"Matthew","chapter":28,"verse":19},{"text":"Mark 16:16","bookId":"MRK","book":"Mark","chapter":16,"verse":16},{"text":"Luke 22:19","bookId":"LUK","book":"Luke","chapter":22,"verse":19},{"text":"John 3:5","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":5},{"text":"Ephesians 2:8","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":8},{"text":"1 Peter 3:21","bookId":"1PE","book":"1 Peter","chapter":3,"verse":21}]},{"id":"6513237390e9b57e","slug":"revival","title":"Revival","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/jim-cymbala/revival/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/6513237390e9b57e","speaker":"Jim Cymbala","speakerSlug":"jim-cymbala","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/jim-cymbala/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/j/jim-cymbala.png","summary":"Jim Cymbala teaches that revival is the return of the Holy Spirit’s powerful presence to the Church and believers, igniting a transformative fire that penetrates hearts, illuminates purpose, and spreads contagiously.","description":"This sermon is a passionate call for revival, emphasizing the essential role of the Holy Spirit in bringing about a spiritual awakening.

Ultimately, the sermon calls for an open-minded pursuit of truth and a personal acceptance of God's grace.","sermonType":"topical","mediaType":"TEXT","hasAudio":false,"hasTranscript":true,"duration":"","videoUrl":"","mp3Url":"","mp4Url":"","cdnMp3Url":"","cdnMp4Url":"","archiveAudioUrl":"","archiveVideoUrl":"","srtUrl":"","vttUrl":"","pdfUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/pdf/z/zac-poonen--amazing-facts-4-amazing-facts-about-our-greatest-need.pdf","txtUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/pdf-text/txt/z/zac-poonen--amazing-facts-4-amazing-facts-about-our-greatest-need.txt","thumbnailUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/z/zacpoonen.png","image":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/z/zacpoonen.png","topics":[{"name":"Fellowship With God","slug":"fellowship-with-god"},{"name":"Spiritual Needs","slug":"spiritual-needs"}],"scripture":[{"text":"Isaiah 53:5","bookId":"ISA","book":"Isaiah","chapter":53,"verse":5},{"text":"John 3:16","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":3,"verse":16},{"text":"John 14:6","bookId":"JHN","book":"John","chapter":14,"verse":6},{"text":"Acts 4:12","bookId":"ACT","book":"Acts","chapter":4,"verse":12},{"text":"Romans 3:23","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":3,"verse":23},{"text":"Romans 6:23","bookId":"ROM","book":"Romans","chapter":6,"verse":23},{"text":"2 Corinthians 5:21","bookId":"2CO","book":"2 Corinthians","chapter":5,"verse":21},{"text":"Ephesians 2:8-9","bookId":"EPH","book":"Ephesians","chapter":2,"verse":8},{"text":"Hebrews 11:6","bookId":"HEB","book":"Hebrews","chapter":11,"verse":6},{"text":"1 John 1:9","bookId":"1JN","book":"1 John","chapter":1,"verse":9}]},{"id":"c529b9e7c3d5d6ac","slug":"avoiding-the-cross-is-like-worshipping-satan","title":"Avoiding The Cross is like Worshipping Satan","url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/zac-poonen/avoiding-the-cross-is-like-worshipping-satan/","apiUrl":"https://api.sermonindex.net/v2/sermons/c529b9e7c3d5d6ac","speaker":"Zac Poonen","speakerSlug":"zac-poonen","speakerUrl":"https://www.sermonindex.net/speakers/zac-poonen/","speakerImage":"https://www.sermonindex.net/images/speakers/z/zac-poonen.png","summary":"Zac Poonen teaches that avoiding the cross in one's Christian walk is tantamount to worshipping Satan, emphasizing the necessity of embracing Christ's love, grace, and truth through surrender and obedience.","description":"This sermon emphasizes the importance of being rooted and grounded in love, forgiving others, and choosing the way of the cross to reflect Christ's love.
