“ What a Saviour! ” O deep joy!
"Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated (transferred) us into the kingdom of his dear Son".
Amen and Amen.
“ The Way of Salvation - 1 & 2 ” Together, this short series explores Mark 6:53-56, and it parallels the physical healings which Jesus performed in these verses with spiritual salvation. It makes a good antidote to those suffering with hyperCalvinism or Sandemanianism (check out the Alpha Course to see how this "mere assent to certain teachings to be saved" works out in practice). Two excellent messages. Thanks.
“ Last in the Series! ” Very profitable and heart-warming. The necessity of the new birth comes out again, because it is so crucial. Without it, no-one can see or enter the kingdom of God. The new birth is here again in Colossians 2:13; there is no shortage of scripture texts where it talks about the sovereign work of God. Very noticeable, taking no doubt the example of Jesus himself speaking with Nicodemus, David does not conclude with any instruction as to HOW to be born again. Just that we MUST be born again. And that is something outside the scope of men. Praise God that he does not leave all sinners to their just deservings, but brings new life to many. Deep joy. Thank you brother. I will now start a new series, as your ministry is blessing my soul.
“ Out of Adam, into Christ! ” This is an encouraging message based upon Titus 3:3-7 where Paul tells how sinners get from being in Adam to being in Christ, and interestingly there is no mention of anything the sinner might do, but it is all of the Lord, what he has done, by the ministry of the Spirit through our Lord Jesus Christ. It is such a joyful thing to be born again by God's sovereign will, because of his great love and grace and mercy!
“ Great Text! God chose to give us birth! ” What a good series this is turning out to be. God chose to give us birth through the word of God; note, not by anything done by spiritually dead sinners. This text is a lovely text of scripture, James 1:18.
“ Golden! ” The kindness and love of God in regeneration is something to rejoice in. David warms the heart in this treatment of that golden passage in Ephesians chapter two, which reveals the state of mankind in sin, and the method God employs to save sinners.
“ Good message! ” Amen! The 'natural man' can be religious while unregenerate, but he will never be a spiritual man without the new birth. There will always be those who have 'churchianity' without Christianity. Thank you bro.
“ Good message! ” How did the folks in John 1:12 come to believe in, trust in, and receive Christ? Because of the new birth given by God as it says in verse 13.
Once people put the new birth as coming after sinners put their trust in Christ, a whole lot of theological problems ensue, which will destroy the true gospel of God's grace in Jesus Christ. I am thankful to David for focussing on this subject. It is greatly needed in these days of apostasy.
“ Dead sinners don't repent! ” It is good to hear what is actually very deep theology in simple terms and words. Without the new birth there is no spiritual life, no understanding, no faith, no repentance. It is a sovereign work of the Lord God, and it gets the results he wishes, the salvation of his elect. Thank you bro for having such a concern about this subject in these last days. I am with you in this.
“ Good message! ” I am going through the whole series on Regeneration by David Gay, and this first one is most enlightening and helpful, especially concerning the current drift away from the truth about the new birth in many evangelical churches. I also like the short length of each message, as at my age it enables me to focus non-stop from beginning to end. Thank you bro.
“ Truth cuts to the heart ” Scripture shows us that evil has been with us since time began, there is nothing new under the sun, men will always build religious Towers of Babel, as God is knocking them down, calling us out of these tombs....how long God will it be before we finally lose our religion and cling to You...
“ God has done it all ” He has laid it all out in plain sight, but hidden except to them whom He has given His eyes to see, who have been Baptized by His death in order to be born again and risen by and in His Spirit...
“ Great Sermon! ” Spot on brother, religion is like high end costume jewelry...most can’t tell it’s fake, but God sees right through it all, He sees the heart
