Mercy
161: Measuring with the Golden Rule (Walking with Jesus Series #024: Matt. 7:1-12)
Few believers live by the Golden Rule, yet it is one of the qualifications for kingdom inheritance. Pastor Hollandsworth gives the meaning of the rule and four ways we can keep it.
122: Responding to Others in Faith (Hebrews Series #30: Heb. 11:32-34)
King David was a man after God’s heart, who fulfilled all His will. He is in the faith hall of fame because he obeyed God, by faith. Pastor Hollandsworth focuses on one key aspect of David’s life—how he pleased the Lord by responding in faith to others. Numerous applications are made to the Christian life.
098: Approaching Your Priest (Hebrews Series #09: Heb. 4:14-16)
God commands His children to come boldly to His throne where they can obtain mercy and grace. We approach Him through our High Priest, Jesus Christ, who is seated at the right hand of the Father. Pastor Hollandsworth describes how New Testament era believers can fulfill their calling as holy priests by finding cleansing and enablement from their High Priest in the heavens.
082: Crowned With Mercy (Greatness of God Series #09: His Mercy)
Apart from God’s mercy, mankind would be doomed. Mercy stays His hand of judgment, giving those who are sinning opportunities to repent. Pastor Hollandsworth discusses the three recipients of God’s mercy and the special, millennial reward that He promises those who fear Him.
065: All Israel Will Be Saved and So Will All Mankind (Romans Series #25: Rom. 11:16-36)
To illustrate that Israel’s “time-out” is merely temporary, not permanent, Paul uses the metaphor of wild olive branches (believing Gentiles) being grafted into a cultivated olive tree (Israel), whose branches have been broken off due to disobedience (in rejecting Messiah and His offer of kingdom inheritance). But Israel will repent and be re-grafted back into her national tree. Pastor Hollandsworth points out that “all Israel will be saved,” leading to all mankind being saved, for God’s objective is to commit all mankind to disobedience so He might have mercy on all.
