Sound Quality & Duplicate Sermon There are two identical sermons. This one, the sound is not all that good. A lot of background noise. The other sermon is clean and clear and much easier and more enjoyable to listen to.
The title of the message The pastor states at the very beginning that he will be speaking on "Alms, Prayer & Fasting". He repeats this twice. He begins the sermon by asking everyone to turn to Luke Chapter 6, then he gives the title of the message and states that it will be out of Matthew Chapter 6. He doesn't correct himself.
The basis of the sermon is building your foundation.
Disregard my earlier comment My earlier statement was made too hastily in that Todd does in fact say that the sermon is entitled correctly, but it is the SUBJECT that is entitled the FEAR OF GOD. My mistake for mishearing.
Misnamed Sermon The sermon's title on SermonAudio is not what Todd states it is in the first few seconds of the message. He clearly states that the title of the sermon is THE FEAR OF GOD and does in fact reference Romans 8.
Audio Is Very Low This particular sermon - the audio is very low. I have done everything that I can to raise it and I can barely hear it. I would hope that they can re-release this with an improved audio.
Part 2? There are two sermons by this exact title both for February 12th with only 1 minute difference.
In listening to them, it looks like this could be from the evening sermon and is part of the morning sermon. The audio is terrible, but you can hear him preach.
Scripture Reference Is Wrong I just finished listening to this sermon. The pastor starts out with Exodus 33 and reads the from the beginning of the chapter down through verse 17. He speaks on each verse at some length which lays the ground work for his sermon. He then moves on to reference 1 Corinthians 4:7 and Romans 9:11. He comes back and speaks on Exodus 34 to wrap up the sermon.
Sounds Like He's At the Beach I listened to this sermon all the way through because it was something that I wanted to hear the pastor speak on. Was it hard to hear? Sort of. There was this wave of sound that would happen every so often that made me think that he was standing on a beach and the waves were crashing in around him. That's how it sounds. Could I hear the message? Yes. Would I love a much cleaner copy of this sermon? Absolutely. The sermon itself was very useful and insightful.
This is a duplicate sermon This is a duplicate sermon. There are 2 listed for 11-11-12. One has audio and video and this is only the audio which is exactly the same as the other entry. Times are duplicates.
Is There An MP3 Version? I would have really liked to have had an mp3 version of this sermon. I was surprised to find that there was only a video for it.
Very Interesting I am presently listening to this sermon and am finding the pastor preaching a very interesting and enlightening sermon. I am learning quite a bit and see a different take on what I thought I already knew. God is using this pastor to open my eyes and for that I am very thankful.
The other scripture references in this sermon are: Luke 22:39, John 11:30, Hebrews 5:7, Matthew 23:37
InAudible Sermon I really, really wanted to hear this sermon. I really did. But in listening to it, it sounds like the pastor is standing way away from the mic. I had just finished listening to "The Death of A Believer" and the sound was fine. I didn't do anything to my settings and started this one next and couldn't hear it, but just barely. I wish there was something that could be done to improve the audio of this sermon. I feel as if I missed a special message.
Scripture Reference Because the sermon doesn't show what the scripture reference is, I thought I would list it here so that those that are interested can see what it is before listening to it. Romans 12:3, Ephesians 3:1, 2 Corinthians 12:1 - and the focus is GRACE.
The Audio Is Too Low I tried to listen to this sermon through several players and the volume is just too low. I even double checked my volume on my laptop and it was maxed out. I tried other sermons and they played fine. This particular sermon's volume is just too low.
Great Sermon! Thank you Pastor Nibert for your wonderful sermons. Although I'll need to listen to this one again and again, I'm eternally grateful that it helps immensely to clear up the things in Christ that must be waited for. That is, although the works of God have been finished since before the foundation of the world, and in the history of Christ's first coming to Earth, we must yet wait in time. You have no idea how much anxiety this issue of eternity and time has caused me. While my anxieties about these things are not now instantly cured, this sermon will go a long way toward that end. Thank you, Pastor Nibert. Keep up the excellent work.
