“ Please listen to this. ” This series on prayer is very important. This particular message is indeed a wake-up call - to me and I hope to many others. I am guilty of neglecting prayer from time to time when it should be our utmost priority before going into any situation.
Thank you pastor for this message - it affirms and confirms much that I have been feeling and reading in the scriptures lately. This exhortation and encouragment to prayer will challenge any who hear it.
“ Very Fine Sermon ” We were greatly blessed by this message and the emphasis to "be ready" at the Lord's coming or at our departure. It is a joy to know that dying in Christ is far better than not being ready and so it is needful to hear sermons like this to enable us to examine ourselves.
“ Great Sermon! ” Some men have created principles to deal with sin and the struggle with sin. However, as Dr. Cairns points out in The Cry of the Captive, "Every attempt to be holy by law will lead you to bondage." Mere adherence to men's principles will leave us defeated prisoners in the war with sin. At the end of trying to be good on our own, we realize our failure and cry, is this the best there is? No, God has a better way for us! Listen to this Christ-exalting message by Dr. Cairns and hear about the victory we can have only in Jesus Christ.
“ Terrific Sermon! ” Excellent description of what makes Presbyterians distinct. He notes 3
things that identify a true, visible church:
1. The true preaching of the Word of God. 2. We don't take the sacraments lightly and they have to be administered correctly. 3. The faithful exercise of discipline. That is,
it's the responsibility of the church to maintain the purity of doctrine, the purity of the fellowship. But Scripture tells us the wheat and the tares will grow together.
He closes with a welcome reminder that being a Presbyerian isn't what gets us to Heaven, it is being part of the Church, the body of Christ, 'the "invislbe entity that is so very special to God." The purpose of the church is to edify the believer, to be a place sinners can come to find Christ, and, finally, we exist for the purpose of His glory. Amen and Amen! Thank for preaching such a sermon. It has been a blessing. What a gold mine on the Internet sermonaudio is!!!
“ Great Sermon! ” I have listen to many different Bible teachers (approx 150+), but I must say Dr. Cairns is in my top 5 list. He is so blessed and has so much GOD given wisdom. Get as many sermons from him, you will not be disappointed.
“ Great Sermon! ” In "Having Clean Hands and a Pure Heart", Dr. Cairns again delivers a very relevant sermon that drives right to the heart of what we need. I praise the LORD for this servant of God who declares the Gospel in such a clear manner.
“ Great Sermon! ” I plan to listen to the entire series as a study in the book of Romans. Dr Cairns is fast becoming one of my foavourite preacher and I am a Reformed Baptist and Not King James Only but I have truly been blessed by Dr Cairn's preaching
“ Great Sermon! ” We have been studying the apostles in our sunday school class and have been listening to your messages along with our study. I have enjoyed your messages and the additional insite you have given myself and our class into the life of these men. Each week the class asks if I have listened to your message and what you had to share that our book doesn't mention. It has been a blessing. Thank you
“ Much -needed refutation ” A very much needed refutation of a system which is entirely heretical.
Falsely dividing the word of truth as Dispensationalists have consistently done has caused serious damage to the sanctity of the Lord's Holy Day, among other things.
“ more like, 'Dispensationalism Defended' ” Matt: 8:29 the demons asked, are you come to torment us before the time?
Mk. 1:15 The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of god is at hand...
Mk. 10:30 But he shall receive an hundred fold now in this time,... and in the aiwnios/world to come eternal life.
Lk. 12:56 ...how is it that ye cannot discern this time?
Lk. 19:44 ...because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
Ro. 5:6 ...in due time Christ died for the ungodly
1 Cor. 4:5 ... judge nothing before the time...
2 Cor. 6:2 ...I have heard thee in the time accepted...now is the accepted time...now is the day of salvation.
Gal. 4:4 But when the fullness of time was come, God sent forth his Son...
2Pet.1:21 propoesy came not in old time by the will of man...
The scripture is full of references to times/days/ages. God has done different things to accomplish stages in His plan.
Dispensationalism is not the horse or the cart; it is the shelving that sorts and organizes. It is very true that some promises, warnings, and prophesys (Thank the LORD), ie. the tribulation, the rapture, the Kingdom, the seats around the throne, the 144K, do not apply to all, and we do need to rightly divide the word of truth. Thank the Lord for the ability to discern truth.
Dispensationalism is a biblical, doctrinal reality.
“ Separation from Rome ” I marvel at men of God such as Dr. Alan Cairns who are not afraid of the Vatican. Most Christians Leaders today, many because of their high profile status, and many others because their hope is to become a high profile Evangelist, will not dare make mention of the blatant errancy of Roman Catholic dogma. They do not, and will not teach against these false teachings as they should. Instead, they actively court her (the Roman/Catholic Church), and at the very least, smile graciously and sheepishly while tolerating her and allowing her to slip 30 pieces of silver into their pockets. The Roman Catholic religion is insidiously slipping into all sectors of Christianity. Years ago, I separated myself from a Florida radio station because I came to realize that I was listening to daily broadcasts of the Catholic Mass. I loathed the very sound of it. I'm sure neither the Pope, nor other Catholics can stomach the other contemporary Christian music that plays on this station (a station which the Vatican probably owns), but she knows that 100's of 1000's of Christians can, unwittingly, quote the Rosary word-for-word. Christians are becoming quietly and progressively indoctrinated. We must pray for all Spiritual Leaders, and thank God for the Dr. Cairsn' he has raised up here and there.
“ Fantastic Message! ” I had the great privilege of having Dr. Wisdom as one of my professors while I was a student at BJU. This message is truly a needful lesson for the body of Christ in this present, evil age. This is a "must-hear" sermon!
“ Great Sermon! ” A sermon well worth listening to. I enjoy Dr. Barret's intelligent and articulate communication style. Every sentence is crisp and clear and of the same approximate volume so that he never goes from a faint whisper to 10,000 decibels within a short space of time. His sermons are more like a good lecture but very powerful and anointed nevertheless.
“ Great Sermon! ” iam a believer in christ please help me with getting this great sermon titled Where art thou ? been saved 18 months ago and spiritually blessed by hearing to Dr Allan Cairns sermons .
faith in christ
Basil
“ Great Sermon! ” I listened to Dr. Barrett's sermon. I agree that this is a system of theology thrust on Christianity in the early 1900s, adopted by fundamentalists, but that not all fundamentalists subscribe to it.
I certainly don't. I'm aware of C.I. Scofield's "resume," and I wouldn't touch his Scofield Bible. He was a forger, deserted his wife and three little daughters, sent them a forged deed and mortgage to nonexistant land, bilked his own mother-in-law of her life savings, never supported his family with one penny of money even though he was raking in money off his Scofield Bibles. He claimed nonexistant theological degrees, pastored big churches after his conversion in jail by a bunch of lady missionaries, married one of them. Hooked up with DL Moody and wrote all his notes using Darby's stuff and didn't give one bit of credit -- also used the work of another man named, no credit given there either. Used prominent theologians to edit subsequent editions and gain more respectability. People use his Bible, read the footnotes and believe them as though they were scripture. Darby got most of his ideas from the Irvingites and a young teenage girl named Margaret McDonald. Because of Scofield, people only read Paul's epistles, think Gospels should be avoided, and are ignorant of OT.
“ Insightful and well reasoned ” Dr. Barrett has become one of my favorite preachers on this web site. His comments are insightful and well reasoned. I also appreciate his sound theology and Biblical stance.
