Ten were healed, but only one returned. Why is gratitude so rare, even in the church? This sermon walks through Luke 17 to reveal how unthankfulness is more than bad manners—it’s spiritual decay. From entitled hearts to wasted blessings, God sees it all and asks still, “Where are the nine?” Learn why a thankful spirit isn’t optional—it’s the will of God. Are you taking and walking, or turning back to give thanks?
-
Are you walking the broad path to destruction or the narrow road to life? In this powerful message from Matthew 7:13–14, we zoom out to review the Sermon on the Mount and zoom in on the choice every person must make. Jesus warned that few find the narrow way—but those who do will walk in truth, light, and lasting joy. Don’t follow the crowd off a cliff. Choose life. Let God’s Word guide you like the ultimate GPS, and discover the eternal rewards found only on the strait and narrow path.

Is the office of apostle still active today? This sermon answers with Scripture, not tradition. Apostles were personally chosen by Jesus, saw the risen Christ, laid the Church’s foundation, wrote Scripture, and confirmed their message with miracles. Their office was the highest—and it’s closed. No modern title can replace it. The Bible says, “First apostles,” and that foundation is already laid. There are only two church offices today: pastors and deacons. This message exposes false claims of apostleship and reminds us to stand firm on the doctrine the real apostles left behind—unchanged, unchallenged, and complete.
-
What if the foundation of your faith rested on one unshakable truth? Not a feeling. Not a tradition. But a bold declaration: The Lord our God is one Lord. In a world flooded with spiritual counterfeits—crystals, karma, pop culture gods, and personalized religion—this sermon confronts the confusion with clarity from Scripture. From Deuteronomy to Isaiah, from Jesus’ own words to the epistles, the Bible thunders: there is only one God. But this isn’t cold theology—it’s a call to undivided worship. This message walks through the doctrine of God’s oneness, the Trinity, and why false teachings that dilute His nature must…

What happens when helping others turns into enabling sin? Could your generosity actually be fueling rebellion instead of obedience? In this sermon from 2 Thessalonians 3, Paul lays it down straight: if a man won’t work, he shouldn’t eat. This isn’t about punishing the weak—it’s about correcting the willfully disobedient within the church. Have we confused kindness with compromise? Are we tolerating laziness in the name of “grace” when God calls it disorderly conduct? You’ll walk away knowing why biblical love sometimes means stepping back—and why discipline is part of a holy church.
-
Have you ever thought about what kind of prayers actually please God? Could it be that many people today sound more like spiritual leeches—constantly asking God for material things, but never seeking what truly matters? This sermon dives into Matthew 7 and Luke 11 to expose the emptiness of “name it and claim it” Christianity and challenges believers to stop asking for more stuff—and start asking for the spiritual gifts that glorify God. Are you praying for riches, or for a heart that hates sin, walks in the Spirit, and boldly preaches the gospel? The answer reveals whether you’re living for self—or…
-
Have you ever stopped to compare what Jesus said about the end times with what most churches teach? Could it be that the popular timeline of a pre-tribulation rapture doesn’t line up with Scripture—but instead falls apart under the clear order Jesus gave in Matthew 24 and Revelation 6? This sermon walks through the six seals step by step, revealing how deception, war, famine, persecution, and cosmic signs unfold before the wrath of God is poured out. If the tribulation comes first—and the rapture after—then the real question is: are you ready to endure what’s coming before Jesus gathers His…
-
Have you ever wondered what it really means when the Bible says, “Judge not”? This sermon tackles that question by showing how Jesus warns against hypocrisy, not discernment—and how we can judge righteously without being self-righteous.
-
Are you just trying to clean up the old you—or have you truly been made new? This sermon confronts the lie that Christianity is about self-improvement and boldly declares that salvation transforms you into a brand-new creation, not a better version of your old self.
-
Have you ever wondered how something that seems harmless—like “just one drink” or a single pill—can turn into a prison? This sermon pulls no punches, exposing the cunning grip of substances that numb pain but ultimately steal your heart, relationships, and joy, and it dares you to trade that temporary buzz for the freedom and fullness found only in Christ
-
Have you ever wondered what the phrase “abomination of desolation” really means—and whether it’s talking about events in the past or ones yet to come? This sermon delves into Daniel’s prophecy and Jesus’ warnings (Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21), explaining how it refers both to ancient temple desecrations and a future end‑time crisis, challenging listeners to understand the signs and take them seriously.
-
Have you ever wondered what role prayer really plays in a believer’s life—just a spiritual routine, or something more demanding? This sermon lays out a bold answer: prayer isn’t passive meditation, it’s spiritual labor—an act of obedience, sacrifice, ministry, and warfare that flows from salvation but doesn’t earn it.
-
Have you ever paused to ask what it looks like for a man to lead his home—not just by words, but in spiritual authority and purpose? This sermon lifts the Father’s Day and wedding-themed moment to ask every father (or soon-to-be father): will you boldly stand against cultural currents and declare, “We will serve the Lord,” protecting, providing, and pointing your household toward Christ?
-
Have you ever wondered if you’re just scraping by—or stepping into the life God intends? This sermon challenges you to ask: are you living to survive—focused on temporary, earthly needs—or stepping into true spiritual thriving by seeking eternal treasures and trusting Christ for real peace, joy, and purpose?
-
Have you ever considered what it means to truly watch and be ready for Jesus’ return—not just follow global news but tend to your own spiritual life? This sermon digs into Matthew 24:29–51, turning prophecy into personal responsibility: it warns against spiritual sleep and challenges you to live faithfully day to day, so that when the Master returns—even unexpectedly—you’ll be found faithful rather than foolish
-
Have you ever wondered whether saying a set prayer is what saves—or if it’s something deeper? This sermon uncovers how the “Sinner’s Prayer” emerged from human traditions rather than Scripture, and warns that true salvation comes not from repeating words, but from actually believing in Jesus Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection
-
Have you ever treated Jesus more like a life coach than your only Savior—someone who offers tips and encouragement, rather than the One who died to rescue you from eternal death? This sermon confronts that mistake head-on, declaring that faith isn’t about self-help or improvement—it’s about trusting completely in Christ’s finished work, because you can’t save yourself.
-
Is it possible to be forgiven by God and still be out of fellowship with Him? Could your unwillingness to forgive others be costing you more than you realize? This sermon dives deep into these questions and challenges what many assume about forgiveness, salvation, and our relationship with the Father.
-
Could we already be the generation Jesus spoke of in Matthew 24? What if the signs aren’t coming—but already here? This sermon raises questions you can’t afford to ignore.
-
Could it be that asking a prayer isn’t what actually saves you? Have you ever wondered if the moment you truly believe in Jesus—not speak a formula—is the moment you enter eternal life? This sermon challenges the most common “sinner’s prayer” assumption and dares you to examine what really matters in coming to Christ.
-
What if making a decision for Christ was never meant to be the finish line? Are you just saved—or are you truly following? This sermon pushes past the surface and calls you into the deeper, daily walk of real discipleship.
-
What if the one prayer God always answers is different than what you’ve been taught? Are your prayers rooted in empty repetition—or aligned with the model Jesus gave in Matthew 6? This sermon digs beneath the surface and challenges you to pray with purpose, faith, and confidence.
-
Want to know the real message behind Jesus’ longest prophecy? What if the end times aren’t just distant events—but a call to personal readiness? This sermon unpacks Matthew 24:1–31, showing how prophecy transforms into a wake-up call—and asks: will you be watching or wandering when everything begins to unfold?
-
Have you noticed how each sunrise—and sunset—is silently preaching the gospel? This sermon invites you to ponder: Does your life follow the pattern of light, shadow, sleep—and resurrection? It challenges you to see your daily rhythm as God’s story, and ask: will you rest in His promises or stay trapped in the darkness? truewordsbaptist.org
-
What if every sunrise is more than just beautiful—it’s a message from God? Do you realize that Jesus isn’t just a guiding light—He’s the blazing Sun of Righteousness whose rise brings healing, power, and ultimate judgment? This sermon dares you to look up and meet the Son at dawn—because the darkness is fading fast.
