Living and Active | God's Word as a Weapon | Hebrews 4:12-13

Daniel Samms
Bibliology

We are in a culture war that is merely a manifestation of a spiritual battle. Many Christians have found themselves ill-equipped for this fight. How does one reason with a man who pretends to be a woman? How does one win an argument with those who deny that which is universally demonstrated in nature? We have forgotten that our greatest weapon is God’s Word. Living and active, it cuts to the deepest parts of a person, revealing their thoughts and intentions. This sermon is an exposition on how to use God’s Word as a weapon.

God's Word: Canonicity, Clarity, and Life

Daniel Samms
Bibliology

It is common for church people to go around saying “God Told Me” without clearly understanding the implications of such a phrase. The language of “Thus saith the Lord” or “The Word of the Lord” bears the weight of biblical canon. In this sermon, Pastor Daniel Samms addresses two related topics: First, he teaches on the nature of Scripture and how we got the Bible, building our confidence in the authority and clarity of the Bible. Additionally, we discuss the role of the Holy Spirit to convict, direct, and otherwise work in a time when the biblical canon is closed. We answer questions such as “How can I know that the Bible is God’s Word"?” and “How can I know that we aren’t missing books of the Bible?” Additionally, we will address the question: “How do I know if God is directing/leading me?”
