“ Take Heed Brethern ” Most people believe that the unforgiveable sin is to blaspheme God. What they don't realize is that the unforgiveable sin is to not believe in God. Unbelief is what sends a person to Hell.
Most folks think that being in this world is a ticket for them to do whatever they want and if they need God, they'll let Him know. Here is the greatest of mistakes. To ridicule God and to call God a liar. Henry touches on all these things.
Unless you explain it to the people, they won't understand. Henry does explain it - do you understand?
“ The Shackles of Religion ” Most people refuse to believe that death changes nothing in a person. A mean person is a mean person in Hell and a saved person is a saved person in Heaven. What you are on earth you will be when you die. It's just that simple and Henry explains this is detail.
Most people choose to believe that by some miracle a person becomes saintly after death. The preachers that preach this should be ashamed of themselves. That was one of the major reasons that Charles Spurgeon refused to preach funeral services - he didn't want to LIE.
The rich man here in scripture is just as evil and wicked after death as he was in life. He is ordering Abraham to do this and that in order to satisfy himself. Abraham tells him that he doesn't get his way in death.
Henry references numerous scripture to back up what he is preaching and it serves to lead us to see just how deceived we actually are in life. This world is very deceptive and misleading. Thank God that He sent His son to save us.
“ Understanding Sin ” Henry does a stellar job here in showing and explaining to us exactly what Christ came to do and how the world confuses this.
To understand exactly what Christ was sent to do, you need to be able to follow Henry as he travels through scripture painting a very distinct picture of what Christ was sent to do. There are multiple passages of scripture that describe it and we very rarely have it explained to us as we need it to be.
One of the very critical things that Henry does point out here is that once we have that understanding of Christ and that relationship with Him, Christ opens our EYES, our EARS, our HEARTS and our MINDS to His Word and we become true children of God. We are now part of the true Israel.
Take the time here to listen and learn what Henry is teaching and preaching, you will be so thankful that you did.
“ How God Saves Sinners ” This is the first time that Henry preaches on this particular passage of scripture and this is the strongest version of it.
If you want to understand God's law, this is the place to do so. If you want to understand the intricacies of God's law and how it works and what makes it what it is, look to this scripture and you will see it.
Daniel represents the elect where the law is concerned. Very detailed. Darius is a representation of God as to how He handles His elect where His law is concerned.
Those 2 judges that set this situation up is representative of how satan manipulates the law in order to punish the elect.
If you listen closely to how this particular law is written here in Daniel and the wording used is very representative of God and His law that He gave us.
Henry preaches in a very unique way - he tells the TRUTH. Too bad other preachers don't get it.
“ Powerful & Introspective Sermon ” I wasn't sure exactly what to expect from this sermon just going by the title, so I knew I needed to listen to it and I am very thankful that I was able to.
Henry touches on many things in this sermon. One of them being the example of Darius where God and His law are concerned. By understanding the story of Darius and Daniel, we understand God and His law and how it works.
Then Henry points to scripture that explains "pleasing God". Those scriptures are as follows:
1 Samuel 12-22 - His People
Colossians 1:19 - In Christ
Isaiah 53:10 - Nailed to the Cross
1 Corinthians 1:21 - Arresting You
Psalm 40:11-17
Then Henry poses a question that all of us need to think about where salvation is concerned - a very appropriate question.
"How much of the doctrines of Grace does a man need to know in order to be saved?"
He goes into some very significant detail in order to answer that. And he does answer it.
This is one of Henry's best sermons and if you are in question regarding your own salvation - give this sermon a serious listen - you might be surprised at what you learn.
“ Thou He Slay Me, Yet Will I Trust Him ” Nebuchadnezzar was (and is) a great instrument of teaching. Much came from the interaction that he had with God and thankfully scripture saved this for us to learn by.
Henry does alot with this passage in the 45 mins that he has here.
One of several things that he speaks on is the following:
God revealing himself in scripture
MOSES - His ETERNALITY (I AM)
ISAIAH - His HOLINESS
JOB - His CREATIVE POWER & WISDOM
JEREMIAH - His ABSOLUTE SOVEREIGNITY
EZEKIEL - His LOVE & MERCY
SOLOMON - He being the RIGHTEOUS JUDGE
The above can all be found toward the middle of the sermon. But, needless to say, this sermon has much to teach.
And in essence, this sermon could feasibly be titled "WHO IS THE LORD?"
“ An Example of God ” Henry takes this passage of scripture and shows us the contrast between Darius and God.
There are some legitimate comparisons between Darius and God in the sense that Darius was King and could make law. Darius was ruler over his people. The King's word was law.
Where one very significant difference occurs (and this is the basis of the sermon) is that even though Darius was King, he could not save Daniel from the Lion's den. God can. God's law is perfect, man's law is weak and fallible.
Henry lays things out in such a way that you can clearly see and understand the difference between God and man.
A very, very educational sermon.
“ Pride Goeth Before Destruction ” And a haughty spirit before a fall. True words from Proverbs 16:18.
Henry reminds us here that mankind has basically become excruciatingly prideful and ignores the true God. In place of the true God they have created a god that they like much better.
What man has failed to realize is that God is KING and RULER over all and each mortal will have to stand before Him and answer. Most will not like the reply that they receive from HIM.
Henry lays out what mankind has done and how he will have to pay for that. And as Henry says so often, mankind doesn't want to hear it.
If you want to know God better, this would be a wonderful place to start.
“ The Exactness of God ” In this exxample from the old testament of how God deals with people, we find here what we should already know. That God has ultimate and total control over ALL things. For by Him, were ALL things created. Belshazzar, like most all mankind, chose not to recognize that part, instead looking to his own ways and his own gods.
What happened to Belshazzar is what happens to those who choose to ignore God and live for the things of this world. It's a dangerous game that mankind plays and he will always lose.
Another excellent sermon by Henry. Again he makes scripture understandable.
“ Jesus in the OT ” How many of us really, truly understand God's law? How many of us understand what Christ represents? If you have questions or aren't sure - this scripture is for you.
In 27 short minutes, Henry manages to take a scene out of the book of Daniel and show us exactly what God is all about through the example of King Darius and Daniel.
It just doesn't get any more simple than this. When you hear that Christ is on the pages of the Old Testament - it's true. And Henry does a wonderful job at showing us the details of that.
The Lion's Den is more than just a Sunday School story or lesson - much, much more.
“ How To Be Truly Saved ” Henry preaches so sincerely, so honestly. In explaining how to be saved, he does so from scripture as he should. With the example of the Ethiopian Eunuch Henry explains how simply and beautifully someone is saved. It's not complicated, it's not a political process - it's first and last from the unerring (inerrant) Word of God. This is where most preachers fall short.
If you listen to most preachers they will tell you that you have to go through a process in order to be saved AND to be baptized. That's not true. Look to the thief on the cross and the Ethiopian Eunuch. The Eunuxh was saved AND baptized - but nothing close to what happens today. The thief was saved - but how and when and at what point on the cross? We don't know, we aren't told, but yet we KNOW that he was in Paradise that day with Christ because Christ said so.
However, the thief was not baptized, why? He didn't have to be. Baptism is a choice, not a mandate. It's a suggestion, a recommendation, but not a mandate obviously because the thief did not require it - Christ took care of everything. Who are we to say that what happened there was wrong?
Scripture is the last word.
It's all so simple, and Henry tells us that and he uses scripture to do so. You can't go wrong here.
“ How To Preach the Real Word of God ” Again, Henry points out in this sermon that trying to find a preacher who preaches the real and true Word of God is a very rare thing in this day and time.
He doesn't just say it, but backs it up with example after painful example and he is right. However, he does point out quite clearly how Philip preached the Word of God to the Eunuch and how preachers in this day and time don't do that.
We live in a very unfortunate place and time. But, thanks to God and His Grace, we have preachers like Henry and even though Henry is no longer with us here in this world, his sermons are - to be listened to everyday and understood.
“ The Lesson That Keeps On Giving ” Henry has done many of these sermons over the years and even if you listen to every single one of them you will undoubtedly walk away with a new lesson learned. Something that was learned here that wasn't learned in the others. That's the beauty of scripture and of a pastor who knows how to preach the Word of God. Always something of value, something precious to be learned.
“ What Do You Know About Hell? ” This is the earliest sermon it seems on this chapter and verse of Luke. There are at least a half dozen sermons, but this one seems to be the first - at least here on SA.
Henry does a fine job at comparing what we do as people to prepare for a future here on this earth as opposed to what we do as people in order to prepare for eternity. The difference is startling.
Henry points out 5 things that the rich man discovered once he got to Hell. And memories of this place are present with him.
Where are you going? And more importantly, what are you doing to prepare?
“ The Answers Lie At Calvary ” We don't understand just how worldly we are until we listen to sermons such as this. We think to ourselves that we are doing God's will when in fact we are doing the world's will. Frightening. But, if we truly seek the Lord, we will be led to Calvary where we will learn just what it is to have a heart right with God. But, we have to want it, really want it. And in this sermon by Henry, if we listen to what is truly being said here, we can have that heart right with God.
“ The Truth Shall Set You Free ” Henry is speaking the truth here in this sermon and nothing but the truth. He is delivering some very hard facts and telling things as they truly are - not what man would like for them to be.
One of the reasons that I listen to so many of Henry's sermons is that with the way that he delivers scripture - I'm surprised that he wasn't assassinated for telling the truth. Because in the world we live in, telling the truth can get you killed. But, not if God's hand is on you, which it obviously was with Henry.
When I listen to sermons such as this I am refreshed and made joyful at the Word of God. My faith is strengthened and reinforced. Thank God we have these sermons in this day and time to help us. Too bad that there are so few preachers such as Henry.
“ Wherre Are You Headed? ” The beauty of a sermon such as this is that it gets right to the heart of the matter. right to the point. And one is forced to answer, maybe not out loud, but answer nevertheless of where their own destiny lies.
Henry does an excellent job at painting a very clear and concise picture of both Heaven and Hell. There is no confusion here, he is quite clear. And for those who are in doubt as to where they are headed - listen to this sermon and you won't be in doubt any longer.
“ The Difference Between Being Saved & Unsaved ” The Ethiopian Eunuch serves to teach us many things in scripture. One of them is the difference between the saved and the unsaved.
Henry points to the present day church and it's failing to teach the Word of God. It shows how worldly the church has become and that the True Word of God is not only not wanted, but rejected completely in place of worldly things. How sad.
Just the sermon alone here has the power to save. Henry does a most impressive job at declaring God's word and if a sinner is listening - could be saved.
“ It's All About Faith ” Sometimes we have to be reminded of the simplicity of faith. It seems hard to most people, but to those chosen by God and saved by Christ, it's easy and it's all we have at the end of the day. It's all we need.
Henry takes the time here to point out the critical difference between the unsaved and the saved. And in listening, we can look around in our daily lives and see exactly what he is talking about. It can be very scary - for those who are unsaved.
Henry does a wonderful job at laying things out so that we can understand them.
“ This Is Applicable To ALL Believers ” I, myself, struggle everyday in understanding God's Word. Sometimes I think that I understand when I am shown (in various ways) that I don't even have a clue. I don't become disheartened, instead I look for further understanding. It's an ongoing search to understand more and more and more of God's precious word. Because in understanding we become closer to God and that is my goal.
Henry does well here in laying all of this out so that we can see where we are in the grand scheme of things. Leave it to God to use Henry in order to bring us sinners closer to our one True Father in Heaven.
