Do Not Be Surprised: A Biblical View of Suffering Pt. 4 - Search The Scriptures Conference 2026

This sermon, based on 1 Peter 4:12–13, teaches that suffering is a purposeful part of the Christian life, not something strange or unexpected. It emphasizes that trials are used by God to refine believers, building humility, endurance, and deeper dependence on Him. Rather than reacting with discouragement, Christians are called to rejoice in suffering by focusing on the spiritual growth and future glory it produces. Ultimately, the message affirms that God is sovereign in every circumstance, using temporary hardships to shape believers into the likeness of Christ.

Do Not Be Surprised: A Biblical View of Suffering Pt. 2 - Search The Scriptures Conference 2026

The message teaches from 1 Peter 4 that believers should not be surprised by suffering but recognize it as part of God’s purpose, meant to shape them into Christ’s image and deepen their faith. It emphasizes that suffering has meaning, drawing Christians closer to God, and should be endured with joy when it is for Christ’s sake, not as a result of sinful or irresponsible behavior. Using Hebrews 12 and Isaiah 53, it points to Jesus as the ultimate example, reminding believers to consider His suffering and remain steadfast in faith. Finally, it encourages practical responses to suffering—prayer, fellowship, studying God’s Word, accountability, and gratitude—while trusting God’s sovereignty and continuing to glorify Him in all circumstances.

Do Not Be Surprised: A Biblical View of Suffering Pt. 1 - Search The Scriptures Conference 2026

The speaker introduces suffering as a neglected but essential biblical topic, emphasizing from 1 Peter 4 that believers should not be surprised by trials but understand them as part of the Christian life. He explains that suffering originates from sin in Genesis 3, yet is sovereignly permitted by God to shape, refine, and sanctify believers into the image of Christ. Rather than approaching suffering emotionally or with misconceptions (such as prosperity thinking), Christians should interpret it through Scripture, recognizing that God remains in control and uses trials for their good and His glory. Ultimately, suffering is not meaningless but purposeful—it deepens faith, teaches dependence on God, produces spiritual maturity, and fixes the believer’s hope on eternal life rather than this world.

We Are The Righteousness of God Pt. 1 | Sunday Sermon

This sermon explains that salvation is entirely God’s work, planned by the Father, accomplished by the Son, and applied by the Holy Spirit. It centers on 2 Corinthians 5:21, teaching that Jesus, though completely sinless, was treated as sin on our behalf so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. Christ did not become a sinner, but bore the full weight of our sins and God’s wrath as our substitute, demonstrating the depth of God’s love and justice. Ultimately, the message calls believers to grasp the cost of their redemption and respond with gratitude, humility, and faith in Christ.

The Doctrine of Sin - Lesson 2 | Grow in Grace

In our study of the Doctrine of Sin, we learn that sin is defined as any failure to conform to God’s moral law in nature, thought, attitude, speech, or action, and it reflects humanity’s rebellion against God. All people inherit both guilt and a sinful nature from Adam, meaning we are sinners by nature and therefore commit sin. This inherited corruption affects every part of human beings, leaving us unable to do any true spiritual good or please God on our own. Despite this inability, humans remain responsible before God, and salvation is entirely a work of His grace.

Integrity Pt. 5 | Sunday Sermon

The lesson teaches that true integrity is when a person’s outward life genuinely reflects their inward character, contrasting real transformation with mere outward disguise or conformity. Drawing from Romans 12:1–2, it emphasizes that believers must reject being shaped by the world and instead experience inner transformation through the renewal of the mind. This transformation is not achieved by self-effort but through the work of the Holy Spirit using the Word of God, producing a gradual but real change from within. Ultimately, a life of integrity is sustained by continually feeding on God’s Word, allowing it to shape the mind and produce Christ-like character outwardly.

Who Is A True Israelite? | Part 3 | Bible Study

This lesson explains that the New Testament reveals God’s promises are fulfilled in Jesus Christ and belong to all who believe in Him, not just physical descendants of Abraham. It highlights that a true Israelite is defined by faith, as both Jews and Gentiles who trust in Christ are united as one people of God. Using the illustration of the olive tree, the teaching shows how all believers are joined into one body—the Church—which is the “Israel of God” and heir of His promises. Ultimately, the key question is not your physical lineage, but whether you are “in Christ” by faith.

The Doctrine of Sin - Lesson 1 | Grow in Grace

In our first lesson on 'The Doctrine of Sin' we learn that sin is defined as any failure to conform to God’s moral law in nature, thought, attitude, speech, or action, revealing humanity’s deep condition of rebellion against God. It includes not only outward acts but also inward thoughts and desires, showing that humans are sinners by both behavior and inherent nature. Although sin brings harmful consequences, its greatest seriousness lies in the fact that it contradicts God’s holy character and is therefore morally wrong at the deepest level. While God is not the author of sin, He permits it through the voluntary choices of moral creatures, with its origin in the rebellion of angels and the disobedience of Adam and Eve.
