Sobering Words by Jeff Noblit...

[hvnaw8s]

This sermon is powerful and convicting.
With so many preachers only wanting to preach what "feels good", what won't "offend", finding our "felt needs", finding the "champion within", building up "mans self-esteem" and so on and so forth here are some sobering words from Jeff Noblitt.

Until we really behold the horror of the pit in which by nature we lie, we can never properly appreciate Christ’s so-great salvation. In man’s fallen condition we have the awful disease for which divine redemption is the only cure, and how much we value that cure, will necessarily be modified in proportion to how well we understand the depth and degree of our sin”
A. W. Pink “Man’s Total Depravity”

Thank you for posting this sermon,I just finished listening to it.
You're right,this sermon is very powerful and sobering;this is the kind of preaching that I so much wish I could find where I live-there are so many of the kind of churches that he talked about,and the one I'm going to right now seems to be starting down that path(I'm Baptist too).
This is a sermon that really helps us to understand more clearly our depravity,and God's holiness and that we never,ever could in any way earn,or keep our salvation-it's all about grace;unmerited favor towards us while we were still full of sin and completely hopeless without Jesus.

LivingbyFaith, thank-you for taking the time to listen...:hug

Im glad it blessed you. I too was so blessed when I heard it. It really does make you appreciate what Christ did for us all the more. When we see and begin to understand what serious condition the state of man was in...

I agree, we need to hear more of this kind of preaching. :yeah

We need Pastors who are not afraid of men, but instead have a righteous Holy fear of God. Willing to preach the Word of God in it's entirety. Then allowing the Holy Spirit to move on the hearts of men.

A big AMEN to that!!!

I'm about to listen to it again,I want my four sons to hear this sermon.
So many pastors today are all caught up in wanting to please man,and blend in more with the world,and in making the church meetings a place of entertainment and ,mushy, fluffy ,feel good about yourself,"sermons".
This is not what the unrepentant sinner living in darkness and headed to eternity spent separated from his Saviour needs to hear.
I heard awhile back from someone that if an unrepentent "seeker" (aka sinner)
walks into a church meeting and doesn't feel uncomfortable,and hopefully convicted,then something is very wrong! They should feel uncomfortable if they're hearing the Gospel being taught in the right way.
All some of these preachers are doing in the hearts of these "seekers",is helping them to leave feeling more puffed up about themselves and not being made aware of the thing that keeps them separated from a holy God-sin.

:hug God bless you and thanks again for posting this! :smile
