Title: Fear the Lord (Servile and Filial)
Speaker: Creston Thomas
Series: Psalm 119
Date: September 13, 2026
Bible: Psalm 119:79

The sermon distinguishes between two types of fear regarding God: servile fear, which is a terror of punishment, and filial fear, which is a reverent awe rooted in love and respect for God as a Father. Using Psalm 119:79 as the primary text, the message argues that believers possess a new nature characterized by this filial reverence rather than dread. This transformed perspective arises from being born again through faith in Christ, who removes the penalty of sin and invites intimacy with the Father. The preacher encourages the audience to approach God with honor and adoration, recognizing His majesty while resting in the security of His grace. Ultimately, true faith is demonstrated by turning to God's testimony with a heart that desires to please Him out of love rather than fear of judgment. www.sermonaudio.com/sermons/91326195718183

Speaker: Creston Thomas
Series: Matthew
Date: September 6, 2026
Bible: Matthew 10:16-25

The sermon explores the reality of persecution as an inevitable part of the Christian life, drawing primarily from Matthew chapter 10. It emphasizes that believers must possess a transformed heart and actively seek the lost, mirroring Jesus' mission to find His sheep among wolves. The preacher instructs followers to remain wise and harmless when facing opposition, trusting in the Holy Spirit for guidance rather than anxiety. Furthermore, it reframes suffering not as a negative burden but as a privilege that allows believers to share in Christ's own experiences and ultimately be glorified with Him. The message concludes with an urgent call to prioritize loyalty to Christ over worldly acceptance, assuring that endurance leads to salvation. www.sermonaudio.com/sermons/96261823284775

Title: Talk About His Precepts
Speaker: Creston Thomas
Series: Psalm 119
Date: September 6, 2026
Bible: Psalm 119:78

The sermon explores Psalm 119:78, urging believers to trust God's vindication when facing false accusations and persecution from the proud. By analyzing the Hebrew word for 'let' as a humble plea rather than a command, the text emphasizes that it is appropriate to ask God to shame those who oppose His truth. The preacher illustrates this through Joseph's experience in Genesis, showing how he refrained from defending himself against Potiphar's wife and instead relied on God's timing. Believers are encouraged to meditate on God's precepts and silence their own defenses, allowing Scripture to speak for them. Ultimately, the message affirms that God faithfully honors His word and vindicates those who remain faithful amidst trials. www.sermonaudio.com/sermons/96261957428128

Furthermore, the message highlights the necessity of Christian community, urging believers to encourage one another rather than relying on individual strength or worldly idols. Ultimately, the central call is to remember past mercies, engage with the Bible regularly, and live in grateful dependence on God's grace. www.sermonaudio.com/sermons/830261921524452

Speaker: Creston Thomas
Series: Matthew
Date: August 30, 2026
Bible: Matthew 10:5-15

This sermon examines Matthew 10:5-15, emphasizing the importance of interpreting Scripture within its proper historical and literary context to understand Jesus' instructions to the twelve apostles. The preacher explains that Jesus initially directed the mission solely to the lost sheep of Israel to fulfill covenant promises before the gospel expanded to the Gentiles. Key themes include the urgency of preaching the kingdom of heaven, relying on divine provision rather than material wealth, and distinguishing between those who genuinely receive the message and those who reject it. The text highlights that true discipleship requires a transformed heart and dependence on God, while warning against forcing the gospel upon those who are unwilling to listen. Ultimately, the passage calls believers to faithfully share the good news with their families and communities, trusting God to provide for their needs through the hospitality of receptive listeners. www.sermonaudio.com/sermons/830261741454261

The message urges listeners to abandon false comforts and instead plead for divine mercy through consistent engagement with Scripture. Ultimately, finding lasting satisfaction requires placing complete hope in Jesus and His enduring covenant love. www.sermonaudio.com/sermons/823262016445323

Title: Twelve Laborers for the Harvest
Speaker: Creston Thomas
Series: Matthew
Date: August 23, 2026
Bible: Matthew 10:1-4

The sermon explores the nature of true discipleship by analyzing Matthew 10:1-4, emphasizing that genuine faith requires a transformed heart rather than mere external compliance or tradition. It distinguishes between a general call to service and a salvational call, using Judas Iscariot as an example of someone who performed miracles yet remained unsaved due to his unrepentant heart. True laborers for the harvest are characterized by receiving authority from Jesus, demonstrating compassion for the broken, and imitating Christ in their daily conduct. The message urges believers to examine their motives, ensuring they serve out of a new heart motivated by love for God rather than a desire for human approval or material gain. Ultimately, the preacher calls the audience to respond to the gospel with urgency, highlighting that salvation is found only in Jesus and requires immediate repentance and faith. www.sermonaudio.com/sermons/82326180388099

By referencing Hebrews 11, the message emphasizes that authentic faith requires personal trust in God even when circumstances are difficult or unseen. The conclusion challenges listeners to move beyond easy believism and cultivate a deep, trusting relationship with the Lord. www.sermonaudio.com/sermons/816262023483354

By analyzing Jesus' ministry of healing and teaching, the text highlights a remnant of people whose hearts are broken and ready for redemption. The preacher argues that evangelism is not dependent on human intellect but on divine initiative, as God moves with compassion to draw souls to Himself. Believers are called to be laborers who disciple others and live lives that point to Jesus, relying entirely on earnest prayer to fulfill this mission. Ultimately, the message urges listeners to abandon comfort and selfishness to actively participate in God's global work of salvation. www.sermonaudio.com/sermons/816261819145015
