114: Primeval Faith (Hebrews Series #22: Heb. 11:4-7)
God places great value on faith, desiring that people in every age trust Him and live uprightly. Pastor Hollandsworth looks at the faith of three antediluvian men – Abel, Enoch, and Noah – also pointing out how they serve as types of events in the future.
113: Faith That Accomplishes (Hebrews Series #21: Heb. 11:1-3)
The just shall live by faith. Pastor Hollandsworth clarifies from Heb. 11, that this quote from the Old Testament is not a soteriological (salvation) statement, as Reformation theology claims. Rather, it is a matter of sanctification, which Hebrews refers to as the “saving of the soul.” Those who live righteously, by faith, will be rewarded by God, like those named in the great faith chapter.
053: How to Have Victory Over Sinning (Romans Series #16: Rom. 8:1-11)
This text is undoubtedly the pinnacle of the book of Romans, in which Paul describes how to have victory over sinning – by walking in the Spirit rather than in the flesh. Pastor Hollandsworth emphasizes these marvelous truths and warns of the alternative prospect of Christians living in carnality and spiritual deadness – and how to avoid it!
051: Repentance and the Book of Life
Repentance is not required for salvation (regeneration). Why, then, does God command all men everywhere to repent? Whose names will be found in the Book of Life? Pastor Hollandsworth describes what happens at the Great White Throne Judgment for those who believe God and live righteously but do not believe on Jesus for eternal life by faith alone.
035: Righteous Inside and Outside
When teaching His disciples, Jesus emphasized the importance of internally obeying the spirit of the law rather than merely externally obeying the letter of the law. Pastor Hollandsworth explains the six examples given by Jesus of the righteousness that is necessary for inheriting the kingdom of the heavens.
