What's True of God In a Negative World | Acts: How To Be A Jesus-Filled Church | Week 45

3/14/2024
In this sermon, Pastor Josh McPherson discusses the story of Paul in Acts chapter 23 and highlights three things to remember about God in a negative world reality. The first point is that the plot of the enemy only serves to propel the purposes of God. Pastor Josh emphasizes that even in the face of opposition and attacks, God is sovereign and in control. The second point is that evil men, godless men, and secular infrastructures can be used by God to fund and facilitate His kingdom work. Pastor Josh uses the example of Paul being protected by Roman soldiers and being provided for by the Roman government while in prison. The third point is that in the midst of negative circumstances, we should stay alert, open, sharp, and ready to say yes to God. Pastor Josh encourages pastors and leaders to not be discouraged by the increasing hostility towards Christianity and to continue faithfully preaching the truth. Thanks for listening!

The Foundation of Paul's Dissidence Part 2 | Acts: Week 43

2/29/2024
In this video, we dive deep into the foundation of Paul's dissidence as outlined in the Acts of the Apostles, exploring the intricate balance between divine law and civil obedience. Paul's teachings provide a robust framework for understanding our responsibilities as believers in both the heavenly and earthly realms. 1. Holy Jurisdiction: We begin by acknowledging that God has established a specific domain of governance, setting the stage for a discussion on divine versus human authority. 2. Holy Limitations: The video examines the clear boundaries within which this divine jurisdiction operates—punishing evil, rewarding good, and protecting citizens, highlighting the role of government as both a friend to the righteous and an adversary to wrongdoers. 3. Holy Submission: Submission to authority emerges as a recurring theme throughout scripture, serving as a foundation for order, blessing, unity, and human flourishing. 4. Holy Responsibility: We explore the dual aspects of responsibility, addressing those in authority as well as those under authority. 5. Holy Accountability: The discussion shifts to the accountability of governments that act unrighteously, emphasizing the fear that should be instilled in them, as warned by Paul. 6. Holy Foundations: This section delves into the moral and natural laws that underpin and support civil law, establishing a higher standard of justice and righteousness. 7. Holy Dissidence: We then tackle the concept of legitimate versus illegitimate government, focusing on the conditions under which dissidence becomes a necessary response to authority that contradicts God's Law. 8. Higher Allegiance: The video clarifies the nature of our allegiance, asserting that our primary loyalty is to God, even when it means opposing earthly powers. 9. Greater Good: Finally, we discuss the role of the Church in advocating for righteousness, emphasizing the collective benefit of speaking up against injustice and the consequences of silence. Tactics of Paul’s Dissidence: Know Your Jesus Story:Tell Your Jesus Story:Live Your Jesus Mission:Exercise Your Rights:Pastoral Hacks for Navigating a Negative World: Big Ideas: This video aims to equip believers with the insights and strategies needed to navigate the complexities of faith, authority, and societal engagement in a manner that honors God and fosters genuine human flourishing.
