A timely message. Thank you. Having lived through this type of battle, I want to thank you for addressing it from the pulpit in such a Biblical way. All that I have ever wanted to do was honour the Lord, which is why I stayed. It was only when I came to realize that only by allowing sin to come to light instead of sheltering it, could I properly honour the Lord. Generally I have had much needed help, but I believe that reformers have room to be educated further on how to deal with this complex issue. May the Lord continue to bless your preaching ministry.
Great Great Sermon! Thank you so much Rev. VanBrugge ,
Your sermon spoke straight to my heart and thanks again for your reminder to " KEEP LOOKING UNTO JESUS THE SOURCE OF OUR HOPE" than focusing on my circumstances.
May God bless you and your ministry Abundantly.

Great Sermon! We thank God for this timely message. Thank you Dr.Barrett for this soul searching message. We are truly at a crossroads. Only our Lord is able to move hearts in the right direction. Please continue to be true to the souls of men. Our prayer is that we will be lights on the hill as we go about our daily business that we can show forth the grace of God to all we come in contact with.
Great Sermon! A powerful and convicting sermon. Admonishing God's children to live as unto the Lord forsaking the enticements of this present evil world and all its fancy attractions. Having our walk and talk according to our profession.
Outstanding Sermon! This is a powerful look at us and the world and how we are to act. This world is filled with good and evil things and we have a choice to how we act. This message gives excellent ways to look at this world and be strong in God. This is a message that we could listen to regularly.
Important Sermon! Reformed, Baptist or arminian friends who want to go to heaven, you need to listen to this; one of the most important sermons for our generation! This sermon clearly shows the spirituality of the law and how to be born again. It is not being baptized or coming forward that saves us, but realizing the "gravity" of our sin, so that sin becomes "exceeding sinful". We see the wrath of God against our sins (especially our sins of coveting), and realize we are hellworthy, hellbound sinners and then we flee to Christ for salvation. It is for those sinners Christ says in John 6:37 "All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out."
Powerful Sermon! This message gives us a true picture of what it means when we have spiritual thirst and receive that satisfaction through Jesus Christ.
Great Sermon! Young people and adults of this world chasing the "vain" things of pleasure, learning or work; you need to listen to this. You do not want to miss the ending to this sermon!
Great Sermon! Too many men are just ordinary and preach very little to the heart. We need more men in the churches of our land which really care about the eternal state of our souls and motivate us to spread the gospel to every creature.
