Great Sermon! Excellent sermon on John 15:1-5. His exegesis of the meaning of the Vine was outstanding. Thanks and God bless you and your church pastor Lentz.
Sound biblical approach This message provides valuable teaching about what the Scripture refers as the 'darkened understanding' (spiritual darkness) of the unconverted, supported with many key passages. Vital.
“the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discernedâ€
Critique Use caution when defining words. "Wherein" does not have a sarcastic definition in and of itself. It simply means "in what way". The people in Malachi's day weren't sarcastic. They were blind, just like today.
