Missio Dei Fellowship

I have a reason to review some of the series. I like the part where you ask me a counseling question. Good times Matt.

Here is a man who believes as I do. 9 years I've been saved and I personally have met no one who shares these truths...

If you take literally what Francis Chan is saying, then yes, Matthew Henry has a point. But if Chan is saying we should let the Spirit work, it does not mean we should literally do nothing. Even Chan is working hard as well, giving his money away, helping and building up others. It's the same principle with the other arguments used.

I do love John 17, and it has much affinity with much of what God has been speaking into the hearts of leadership at our missions boards. Lots more emphasis, for instance, on Business As Missions. What kind of feedback have you received thus far from this message, from people seeking practical guidance into how to be missionaries, wherever, continually? How are people also responding to say, "We believe that God is sending us to ..." ? I'd be glad to partner as servants working alongside as people own up to being sent...

Really good. Worth a listen (and a think). Looking forward to listening to the next one.

Do these sermons on Divorce and remarriage come in book form? If so I would love to have them, as we are having a meetin on this subject in a couple of weeks with our Pastor and bible study group, of which there are several of them that lean the other way.

stayed home today and listened again to this sermon. Not sure why I picked it but am glad I did. Great counseling stuff. Thanks.

The Lord gives and the Lord takes away,blessed be the Name of the Lord, His ways are just and righteous, no matter what He does! Thankyou for this excellent sermon pastor Matthew, and God's richest blessings to you and yours. May the dear Lord bless your ministry as you proclaim His Holy Word.

When I was first confronted with the doctrine I did not get angry because it sure seemed that Ephesians was plain enough and that God can do what he wants. Good sermon on a tough topic for many.

Pastor Henry, I thank God for this sermon, it is perhaps the best sermon I've heard on the Armor of God and Prayer and will be one I will prayerfully listen to over again for some time, and likewise encourage anyone else who is interested in or has a heart for prayer to listen to as well. The Supernatural Stength and the Armor for the fight, that allows us to stand victorious over anything Satan throws at us belongs to God Almighty and Oh! the blessed spiritual warfare we can wage in them for all those we love and care about in our families and in the body of Christ, in our praying so clothed.

Dear Mr. Henry, This sermon was absolutely fantastic. Christians should be made aware of this evil one.Unfortunately there are not many preachers who preach about this today. I know the Puritans did. I have benefited greatly from your sermon, thank you very much and thank Sermon Audio. Keep up your good work preaching in Jesus' name. God bless you and your family & church. Pamela Mcilroy

I was confused on what he meant about how the receiving of the spirit was just for then? I have experienced and witness many people receiving the spirit and speak in tongues even now so how can he say that was just for then?

Wow, how we do need hear this message in the church today! Pray for our pastors that they not be afraid to preach these things.

I guess it's hard to call this sermon life-changing, because normally that refers to something that's "encouraging". This sermon instead forces you to deal with some deep, deep problems, desires, lusts, etc. that drive our life and beyond, in ways we continually ignore.

"Look at the legalized adultery we call divorce. Men marry one wife after another and are still admitted into good society; and women do likewise. There are thousands of supposedly respectable men in American living with other men's wives, and thousands of supposedly respectable women living with other women's husbands." -- R. A. Torrey R.A.
