Preaching the Word

Preaching the Word

The "First Principle" podcasts which are numbered # are a great tool for believers to go over the essentials of the Christian Faith. The "Mysteries of God's Word" podcasts are an indepth study of Scripture. The other podcasts are sermons that have been given, some verse by verse and others topical. It is my passion to be true to God and His Word. To preach in such a way that people can easily see the LORD as our Creator and as our Redeemer. To understand that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever even as we live in a world that is continually changing. Salvation is and has always been through faith alone in the Messiah alone. His name is Jesus the Christ; there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”

We open with Michael rising and a cosmic eviction that mirrors Revelation 12, then follow the implications for Israel during a time of trouble unlike anything before. That tension sets the stage for a promise that refuses to blink: deliverance for those written in the book of l...

Prophecy turns razor-sharp when Daniel 11 moves from Persian kings to Alexander’s swift empire and lands on a ruthless figure who weaponizes flattery and force. We walk through the text line by line, showing how Antiochus IV Epiphanes desecrates the temple, manipulates power in Egypt and Jerusalem, and silences the covenant with lies—and why that storyline isn’t just ancient history. It’s a pattern, a preview pointing...

A trembling prophet at the Tigris, a messenger blazing like lightning, and a delay explained not by chance but by conflict—Daniel 10 is a rare tour through the unseen realm. We walk step by step through Daniel’s three-week fast, the awe-filled angelic encounter, and the startling admission that a “prince of Persia” resisted a holy messenger until Michael arrived. It’s a story that redefines prayer, patience, and how G...

Ever wondered why “I can do all things” ends up on coffee mugs but doesn’t feel true when life gets hard? We go straight into Philippians 4:13 and pull the verse back into its original frame: not a trophy verse for personal wins, but a steady promise that Christ sustains us in every condition—plenty or need, honor or insult, calm or storm. The heart of Paul’s claim isn’t self-belief; it’s the living presence of Jesus ...

When was the last time you heard a sermon about fearing God? In our modern Christian landscape, this biblical concept has fallen out of favor, replaced with gentler, more palatable messages about God's friendship and unconditional love. Yet Scripture is unequivocal – "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge."
