Scripture: Luke 6:27-36, Matthew 5:43-48
In this present Church age, God forbids personal vengeance and assigns justice to His ordained authorities. We overcome evil with cruciform love now, while we await Christ’s visible Kingdom when justice will be perfectly executed.
SermonCentral Summary: Two weeks ago we declared “Christ, not vengeance.” Today we answer “How?” From a dispensational reading of Scripture, Romans 12 sets the believer’s personal ethic, Romans 13 defines public justice, and the Sermon on the Mount forms Kingdom character in disciples now, while we ...read more

God has ordained faith to open the heavens. Doubt and unbelief close them. This sermon examines an enemy of faith - doubt and unbelief
Enemies of Faith – Doubt and Unbelief Faith unlocks the storehouse of God but doubt unbelief locks it - are we stuck in doubt and unbelief - not walking in the land of Canaan and promise, where the Spirit of God, in all His blessing, falls and ignites?

Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 3:1-13
Denomination: Calvary Chapel
When we see an apparently strong Christian face a spiritual defeat, we tend to think, "I would have expected that to happen to anyone but him." Peter’s denial while keeping warm at the enemy’s fire creates a similar surprise.
