Great Sermon! Nestor was not a heretic.it is held that Mohamed was helped to start his religion by an eastern hermit or catholics.
(if you study carefully church history specially the councils it shows,though his adherents distorted his teaching,Nestor was not a heretic)
Great lessons. Useful lessons. In his depression, Job quarrels with God and doubts the providence and the character of God. His friends have no compassion for him. Cannot cannot see the good hand of God in all his circumstances.
An excellent exposition... If there is anyone who wants to get an outstanding explanation of what Ecclesiastes is really saying, and want to undestand Qoheleth CORRECTLY, instead of the usual inacurrate explanations such as "There are two views implied in this book" or "This book has no doctrinal value except the last two verses," then this series by Bro. Borgman is a must-listen. It is wonderful to finally hear someone give a commentary on Ecclesiastes that is easy to understand yet dead-on and consistent with the rest of the Bible. Thank you for your work on this book!
Very insightful treatment of Ecclesiastes Brian Borgman's treatment of the book of Ecclesiastes is one of the most insightful, helpful, and inspiring that I have encountered. He does not shrug away from the traditionally thorny sections, and he keeps the main themes always in sight to help tie together this seemingly chaotic book. I have listened to this series multiple times and still continue to be blessed by it.
Thank you, Mr.Borgman.
We NEED each other! (Hebrews 3:12-14) This is the follow-up sermon to "Battling Unbelief Together (Pt 1)" and it gives the antidote for the POISON that has some thinking that they can make it on this Christian pilgrimage alone. A very encouraging message which encourages each Christian to encourage each other -- daily! The "perseverance of the saints" is a COMMUNITY project!
Sermon for the maverick (Hebrews 3:12-14) This penetrating sermon puts ALL maverick and intentionally independent "Christians" on notice: you're NOT going to make it to heaven on your own! Pastor Borgman makes a powerful argument from Hebrews in that we enter God's Rest (heaven) as a community -- the Body of Christ. Since we are all in the fight against unbelief, we NEED each other in the battle! The Church admits to no rugged individuals. Mavericks perish. This sermon is another stern warning; a warning which the elect WILL receive and agree with. "Battling Unbelief Together" (Part 2) gives the remedy to the problem presented in this sermon. Listen to BOTH parts 1 & 2! You'll be blessed and grateful that you did.
Sobering. An absolutely sobering sermon. (Hebrews 6:7,8) Pastor Brian Borgman begins this "wake-up call" of a sermon looking at God's sovereignty and man's moral responsibility. BOTH are unquestionably declared throughout Scripture. However, he doesn't stay there long! He quickly moves on to declare that as Christians, WE are responsible for what we do with the "rain" of God's word which falls on our "field." We MUST press on to Christian maturity and bear fruit! Am I a field which bears fruit? Or am I a field producing thorns and thistles? WARNING: No fruit, no salvation! The empirical evidence attests to one's faith. This sermon is delivered in such a way as to evoke an honest self-evaluation. It demands that serious, soul-searching questions be answered.
This sermon is best listened to after first hearing Brian's previous 3 sermons on Hebrews 6:1-6 entitled: "Let Us Press on to Maturity"; "Impossible to Renew to Repentance"; and "The Theology of the Warning Passages".
Was Cornelius already saved? ... that Question (and the answer to it) is the most fascinating and important feature of this excellent treatment of Cornelius the centurion of Acts 10. The answer to this critical question has far-reaching ramifications and impacts how we look at missions. Once again, pastor Borgman demonstrates his ability to thoroughly exegete Scripture and "dig deep" to find the jewels hidden beneath the surface of a familiar Bible passage. Borgman's "sanctified imagination" also puts real flesh and blood upon the bare bones of Holy Writ. I just love this preacher's humor, his insight, his humanity, and his obvious gift to faithfully preach the Word of God.
Very Helpful Message! Thanks pastor Borgman for not only showing how and when Cornelius was converted, but the immediate relevance this passage has to the current church situation.
THE Best Sermon on ... Hebrews 6:4-6 that you will EVER hear -- bar none! Pastor Borgman brilliantly sets this most difficult of Biblical texts within its proper setting and examines its function: Hebrews 6:4-6 is a WARNING passage and not some sort of proof-text for determining whether or not someone can lose his/her salvation! Neither is it a passage to be used to determine whether one is saved or not.
If you have ever been burdened by this particular text of Scripture (as I have), then I implore you to listen to THIS sermon ... and the entire group of sermons on Hebrews 6 by this God-gifted preacher.
A Sermon of Encouragement It's no wonder why the Psalms are so loved, cherished and well-read by the Faithful: they are deadly HONEST concerning the human condition and the human heart -- even the heart of the saved. Here, in Psalm 73, Asaph tells how he came this || close to losing his faith and abandoning His God. (Ever been there, Christian?) And Asaph was no run-of-the-mill pew sitter; he was a chief choir and song Director in Israel!
Be sure to listen to this and Part 2 of pastor Borgman's sermons entitled: "Crisis of Faith and the Goodness of God" It might be the MEANS by which God restores you to Himself!
Interesting Teaching! God has emotions? Yes. And just like the rest of His attributes, they are perfectly harmonious and in keeping with His holiness, righteousness and goodness. No "out of control" Greek deity is The LORD!
This sermon was previously cited as having audio trouble. Any prior problems have been resolved.
Sermon with substance "To God be the Glory"
I've learnt that fear, worry and anxiety accompalish nothing and leads to other sin rooted in unbelief in God as being the Omnipotent,Omniscience and Omnipresence.Now I'm greatly challenge, blessed to face all ungodly fears,worries and anxieties.Please God, bless the man of God with more divine wisdom.
Honest, Transparent & Truthful! I need the help of God ALL the time! So why don't I go more often to God's throne of grace and mercy? Pastor Borgman cuts through all the false piety and pretense and delivers this marvelously helpful sermon on prayer based on Heb 4:16. This is one of those sermons you'll want to listen to more than twice!
Powerful and Timely A "MUST" Listen! There's a reason why Islam is exploding and spreading all over the Western world and Christianity is flourishing in Asia and parts of the 3rd world. This is a "hard" sermon designed to wake Christians out of their comfy complacency.
The faithful MUST be reminded! Here's a wonderfully powerful and insightful sermon about your pastor's NEED for constant prayer concerning his preaching of the gospel. It treats on the issue of the mystery which surrounds the relationship that prayer has with the effectiveness of the gospel preached. The important question is asked (and answered): "What is the part that the congregation plays in the preaching by the Lord's minister?" This sermon implores the faithful to be involved in the spiritual warfare that goes on where the gospel is preached. This is the final sermon in Brian Borgman's series on The Armor of God. His entire series is well worth the listen. IMHO, Borgman is one of the finest preachers to be heard on SermonAudio.com
