- The old saying goes, "You don't polish brass on a sinking ship," and Christians today might be tempted to see the world as the sinking ship. In this session, Dr. Sinclair Ferguson will remind us that the world was made by our Father and belongs to our Father. He will remind us that the dominion mandate not only abides, but will be carried through, and that this ship will not sink.

Isn’t it amazing the this sermon was preached years ago and yet God brings each one of us to hear it in His own time. It’s as if God is showing us how His words are eternal is some small way that brings the largesse and largeness of God to light. What an amazing God we serve and a fine sermon as well.
R.C. Sproul said of Sinclair Ferguson, "He is my favorite Theologian." I think that Sinclair may very well be the greatest theologian alive. So wise, so gentle, the LORD GOD has gifted this saint mightily.
I met him at the Puritan Conference and thanked him for being a Blessing 😇🙏💕
I agree, I could listen to him forever!!
I have considered RC Sproul my favorite but I have recently been watch Brother Ferguson a lot and he is coming in almost a Tie- Breaker! Yes fascinating to watch, I love his hand gestures. But what impresses me the most is his gentle sweet spirit of the Lord Jesus that comes through his teaching. Genius!
Brilliant and beautiful. He is quickly becoming my favorite preacher.
Probably the best sermon I've ever heard.
I feel God's gentle love and persuasion whenever I hear this preacher. Thank You heavenly Father.
I like his gift of preaching . And love the accent it evokes fondness of my first meeting with a lovely Scottish person. Very blessed to hear this msg. We appreciate the great GOD we have .
This preacher needs no notes to deliver such a magnificent sermon to make us see what a wonderful Father God has this world in His hands and how He wants to share His joy and delight with us His children!
Whenever Pastor Sinclair Ferguson describes God it is so amazing and so beautiful. I love to listen to him and his brain and how he puts into words the majesty of God. The power of God. The love of God. It’s like you feel Gods love and and you can see God. Praise God and thank you God for Sinclair Ferguson. Glory to God, Gory to God in the highest.
Each time I hear this preaching, my heart sinks to the floor with humility. Thank you Pastor Ferguson.
Man of of God. He preaches with his whole being. Totally prepared by God.
Our favourite preacher , theology is his gift , praise you Lord Jesus for Sinclair you have blessed him to be a blessing 🙏🏻
Yes this is our Fathers world therefore we belong here until He takes us home!
This world is not our home, but it will be.
Such profound truths given in rapidfire delivery one after another after another that you have to watch multiple times to catch it all. And then, you have to pause the video continuously, because as you ponder the ramifications of each truth, you are given to understand layer upon layer of the truth you've paused the video to consider! Ferguson has become my favorite expositor, as he causes us to shout "Glory!" to our Father - as we should, for He is worthy! Magnify His Name through all the earth, all you sons of the living God.
What a wonderful teacher of the Word and creation of our Father God! Inspired! Touching a blessing for me! Thank you.🌹🌸🙏
Perhaps one of the greatest messages I have enjoyed in a very long time.Thank you,Pastor Ferguson:)

🚨🐍🚨 [5:19] O people of the scripture, our messenger has come to you, to explain things to you, after a period of time without messengers, lest you say, "We did not receive any preacher or warner." A preacher and warner has now come to you. GOD is Omnipotent.*
[5:15] O people of the scripture, our messenger has come to you to proclaim for you many things you have concealed in the scripture, and to pardon many other transgressions you have committed. A beacon has come to you from GOD, and a profound scripture.
[5:16] With it, GOD guides those who seek His approval. He guides them to the paths of peace, leads them out of darkness into the light by His leave, and guides them in a straight path.
[5:17] Pagans indeed are those who say that GOD is the Messiah, the son of Mary. Say, "Who could oppose GOD if He willed to annihilate the Messiah, son of Mary, and his mother, and everyone on earth?" To GOD belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth, and everything between them. He creates whatever He wills. GOD is Omnipotent.
[3:59] The example of Jesus, as far as GOD is concerned, is the same as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him, "Be," and he was.
*3:59 The "equality" of the creation of Jesus and Adam is confirmed mathematically; Jesus and Adam are mentioned in the Quran the same number of times; 25 times each.
[3:60] This is the truth from your Lord; do not harbor any doubts.
This file stops & starts.
Yes I encountered that as well.
Finish the job??? Are you out of your mind)?? Do you really think that the Lord of all creation needs a man to finish the job!!! How utterly absurd!
Don't take this wrong, I mean it in the best possible way. What in the world are you talking about? Do you have a Bible? If so, do you ever open it and read it?
Robert Gregg you obviously listened to the sermon so you must have been compelled to listen as intently as you do. What I heard was the beautiful relationship of God the creator giving us (His beloved creation) something great and fun to do within His kingdom. So in that sense we “finish the job” as the directive in Matthew 28 calls us to go make disciples. We in turn enjoy and call others to come and enjoy all that that entails.
Of course God doesn’t have to have man finish the job but we are blessed to partake in the completion of His works. We share in His glory as the Bible says. We know that God is the finisher and perfector of our faith but it seems he ( Dr. Ferguson) was speaking empirically as one who reminisces about being given some important task by your father as a sign of your manhood and trust in your efforts to. “Finish the job”.
I hope that helps. It certainly helps to think less critically and with far greater love in your ❤️.
As for smug, well I just don’t see the correlation although if he were minutely smug at some point in his life then he would be human and not utter perfection. He’s a man of wonderful graces for sure.
True ..the Lord finished the job
Dr. Ferguson intention is to us ... not to draw attention to himself .
