Steven Lawson: Standing for the Truth
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2017
- At the Diet of Worms, Martin Luther was confronted with a choice between obeying the Word of God or the words of men. By God's grace, Luther persevered and stood for the truth despite the high cost. In so doing, Luther showed us that we must be people of conviction and courage, committing ourselves to God's Word both in our words and actions. This session will look at God's call for His people to stand courageously on His Word and consider Luther's example at Worms as an example for us.

The whole council of God is perfect so we need His Spirit to empower us to obey His Word
This man is a legend in the pulpit.
One of, if not, the greatest preacher alive today.
Agree.

If we could go back in time, we would probably find that Lawson sounds something like Spurgeon. Praise God for men of God who preach the unvarnished Word of God! PTL!!
True
An appropriate assumption since both Spurgeon and Lawson condidered their mentor to be George Whitefield.
Amen to that may our Mighty God
bless you and keep you 🙏🏼
Some preachers are like some books of the bible, they all are aligned by the Holy Ghost.
Interesting Stephen olfords pastor was W Graham Scroggie whose pastor was Spurgeon. Olford asked Scroggie what Spurgeon sounded like. He replied like the actor Richard Burton
This is one of the most powerful and truthful expositions of the God, the Lord Jesus, the work of the Holy Spirit, and the gospel of truth and life. Every believer should hear this over and over and over and over again!!! Holy, Holy,Holy is the Lord of Hosts , the Lord God Almighty, the Prince of Peace, the Alpha and Omega!
Jesus is the King, Lord of my life. Help me God, to carry on.
This is the BEST sermon I have ever heard, Christians share this with your Mother, Father, Children, Brothers, Sisters... Everyone... This will not be freely available soon.... Preach The 'Word'... Jesus is the'Living Word '.. . Jesus is LORD.... PROPHET, HIGH PRIEST AND KING.... THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA
Thank you Pastor Lawson, for the Message, this convicts me and challenges me as I struggle with focusing on myself and fear that self-centered.
Yes and Amen, this is TRUE ...and good ammo for my testimony❤ Very good timing
The WoRd of God is the Light of the world. It expels the darkness!
Modern evangelism, with its 'man-centred' theology, is now in need of a reformation...with a return to emphasis on the Sovereignty of God, and the Doctrines of Grace...true men of God like Steven Lawson (a modern-day Augustinian great) are leading lights in this...
What a well said comment. I completely agree!
@@TwentyTwoThirtyThree indeed
Truth! Thy Word is Truth!
The best place to be, is in the presence of God, reading his word, listening and singing his praise, heaven on earth. Bless all those who stand for the truth.
Scripture alone... Sola Scriptura.. AMEN and AMEN... LOVE REJOICES IN 'TRUTH'
Excellent sermon.
TRUTH, HOW SWEET IS THE HOLY WORD OF GOD,
This channel is a blessing! that sows the seed of the Word of God; here it is Pastor Steven Lawson; ever serving ; ever receiving from God and ever giving of His Word.
Romans chapter 10: verse 17 "Then faith comes from hearing and hearing by the word of God."
2 Samuel Chapter 22: Verse 50 "Therefore I will praise you, O Lord, out of the countries, and I will praise your name."

In the midst of chaos and the spirit of hate & destructiveness is the truth of Jesus Christ.
We need to take hold of the Lord's promises! To be a courageous Saint who stands up for Jesus Christ against all odds!
Satan hates us. He hates: God's life insurance : "Jesus Christ Is Lord & only He Saves". "AMEN "

There is no greater praise than the blessed truth of God's word to the glory of God.

God the Son has given us the gospel to share with the world.

Mark 16: Verse 15: And He said unto them, Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

How can anyone hear the "good" news? Romans chapter 10: verse 17 Then faith comes from hearing and hearing by the word of God.
-
Romans 10:
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

Isaiah chapter 7: verse 14: "Therefore the LORD shall give you a sign; behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and call His name Immanuel." Hebrew: עִמָּנוּאֵל, "God with us" in human flesh but without sin. The Savior of the world was born to die for our sins! He did so 33 years later. His terrible ordeal, the body was mutilated, the blood was poured out, but the bones were not broken, buried and risen on the 3rd day.

John Chapter 3: Verse 16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Romans chapter 3: verse 23

"I am the way, the truth and the life: no one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14.6)

"1 Corinthians 15:
1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
-
"7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;." Ephesians 1: 7
-
"Because it is my blood that comes from the New Testament, which has been shed for many for the forgiveness of sins." Matthew chapter 26: verse 28
-
Ephesians 2: 8: "Because you have been saved through faith, and this is not from you. This is the gift of God.
-
Romans 10:
9 If you confess the Lord Jesus with your mouth and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For with the heart man believes in righteousness; And a confession by mouth is given to salvation.
13 For the one who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
-
Salvation and forgiveness of sins is the blessing of anyone who believes in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Those who reject the free gift of salvation, see John chapter 3: verse 16 above, "perish", which means their sins are judged by God the Son and they suffer eternal separation from God and the family of God forever called the "second death". Rev.21: 8.

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. ”Romans 5: 1
The only earth shaking preacher was Christ himself! The spirit preaches is man is just a vessel! Please be careful only to glorify God not man. macarthur, Lawson and Sproul. We're all true preacher of the truth. Only made through the power of god. Thank you brothers for your gifts are a true blessing to to us all. God is all,Christ is king!
Lawson is a Great Preacher
💗 Amen. Thank you, Dr. Lawson. God Bless 💕
Such great teaching from a diligent preacher of the Word!
Amen! Thank you for sharing.
I will exalt My Word above My Name....Psalm 138.... can't be clearer
The Lord God can never go back on His Word....just like Jesus said...'it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away.....'.... it's IMPOSSIBLE
Let my praise fly to our Lord Jesus Christ for such an inspired ceremony , and my appreciation to Steve Lawson ! " We are not to reflect on the wickedness of men but to look to the image of God in them , an image which , covering and obliterating their faults , an image which , by its beauty and dignity , should allure us to love and embrace them ." John Calvin . Amen
Being a Pakistani Christian my prayer is that we can hear such sermons in Urdu and Punjabi languages. May God in His power use me to glorify His name through preaching Sola Scritputa, Sola Fida and all the reformation truths to my people. Please do pray for me.
Martin Luther and many other believers Really stood for the Word of God! All should! The WoRd of God and the gospel of Jesus Christ comes at great cost! Praise Jesus, Our Redeemer!
Wonderful, true preaching.
The fear of the Lord IS the beginning of Wisdom.
Amen great sermon
POWERFUL SERMON, God bless you
Bless the Lord Thanks so much for Biblical Truth
Christ died for our sins and rose again. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
Amen Amen & Amen !!!
I like his statement, "We need to become walking Bibles."
Woe to any nation without Godly leaders.
Great word Pastor Steve Lawson! But I agree, less mention of Luther... Sola Scriptura! God Bless!
Sola Scriptura doesn't mean we can't use additional stories like Luther stories or confessions, but it's only okay as long as it's subordinate to the Word of God.
I guess he is a Lutheran. Sometimes men will point or quote other men who have an accepted position in order to back up what they are saying, witness Jesus quoting Moses and Isaiah, also Peter referring to Paul, but I do agree, a little less of Luther and more of God's Word. Sola Scriptura!
Actually Lawson is Baptist, and he uses quotations from a wide variety of individuals. This message, however, was delivered during a conference on Luther and was to show Luther's tie to the subject, so naturally Luther would be quoted extensively.
Amen
Phenomenal Pastor!
YES, AMEN !! HALLELUJAH !!!!!
Amen and Amen 🙏
Truth,truth,truth!
the dogma of Rome is returning to it's roots , even in our generation!
If you don't know the Truth, how can you discern a lie?
Deuteronomy 8:3 (KJV) And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only,
but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.
Matthew 4:4 (KJV) But he answered and said, It is written,
Man shall not live by bread alone,
but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
Luke 4:4 (KJV) And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
Job 23:12 (KJV) Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips;
I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

Very good. 47:56 to 57:00 should be a clip of it's own.
I love this. But when will he teach the true Sabbath as per the 4th Commandment?
How about us standing for the truth that God did not away with the 7th day Sabbath and presenting the history of the truth of Constantine and the Roman Catholic Church changing Gods Sabbath to Sunday, which the church calls the Lords Day? It's ok and good to worship God 7 days a week, but God said to remember the Sabbath, a day of rest, a day to be kept Holy unto God..... This proceeded out of the mouth of God from heaven to Moses, from Moses to Gods people...Our Lord Jesus Christ said He came NOT to do away with the law, not one BIT of it until heaven and earth pass away. How about WE ALL Google who illegally changed Gods Sabbath which is for all of Gods people. We are grafted in to Israel, we are not Jews, but one new man in Jesus Christ. One law for all Gods people including the Sabbath. I don't post this for debate, Google for yourself the truth. Also Christmas and Easter are man made traditions, not biblical. Gods Holy Days are what we should be observing. If you want to comment, please don't unless you google first what Gods Living Word tells us. We are saved by Gods Grace through faith in Jesus Christ, once saved we are to follow our LORD JESUS CHRIST, pick up our cross and follow Him. If we love Him, we willl obey His commands and words, including Gods 4th commandment on the 7th day, not Sunday the 1st day of the week..... THIS would be standing for the truth of the WORD OF GOD. THIS IS WHAT GOD SAYS.
And you prove why the word must be handled rightly. Those in Christ are not under the Law but under grace. Colossians 2:16-17.
@@risingdawn5788 Thought the Sabbath was given to Israel?
@@carljones8334 It was. It was also shown from Genesis as a lasting ordinance from God. Christians now observe the Sabbath on the Lord's Day, as the New Testament teaches, when we gather together as the people of God. There is however, a difference of opinion in the place of the Sabbath amongst Christians today.
@@risingdawn5788 Just that the Sabbath was given to Israel as a perpetual observance, Friday evening to Saturday evening, and I don't see anywhere in the New Testament that Christians were commanded to observe it, actually the opposite.
I also can't find the Sabbath being moved from Friday evening to Saturday evening to a Sunday midnight to midnight.
Such a monumental change would have been recorded somewhere in the New Testament, unless it wasn't?
The Sabbath keeping is observance of the law, yet Paul asks the foolish Galatians, since they were justified by faith, how were they perfected by law? He even goes as far as asking them to identify those who had bewitched them.
Something Christians today should be asking.
@@carljones8334 as christians we are to be a living sacrifice to God each day. We worship in Spirit and truth. Amen
Sinner, you are invited to trust in Christ this morning.
Come, this only hope... this salvation is available
for you. All the souls of the world who feel the need of
a Savior and who long to be saved, can come to Christ.
to... Come, come now; come, come now! Come now; trust now
in Christ and you will realize that all who trust in
He received His blessing. The door of mercy is not
ajar; it's wide open. The gates of heaven
they are simply uninsured; they are completely open
day and night. Come.
- Charles H. Spurgeon
