Are we for or against? Actually, it’s some of both! We have been set apart from the world in terms of its sin, yet we are also sent into the world with the good news of salvation in Jesus. Paul describes those who carry this gospel as being “ambassadors for Christ.” In a world at war with God, we are to extend his offer of peace through the sin-bearing Savior. This is our urgent mission on behalf of our gracious King.2024-01-2849 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2024-01-21Promise Kept and A God Who Protects - Brady RobinsonPromise Kept and A God Who Protects Sermon Text: Genesis 21:1-21 Human relationships are messy.

To receive those, Abram, by faith, had to show that he trusted God with both of those. He demonstrated that he trusted God to give him land by leaving his homeland, and in Genesis 17 he demonstrates he trusts God to give him descendants by obeying the command of circumcision. In this passage, we will see God give 3 speeches and how Abram faithfully and obediently responds to those speeches.2023-11-0652 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-10-29 Weak Faith, Compassionate God - Brady RobinsonSermon Text: Genesis 16:1-16 After an incredible experience with God, Abram has a massive lapse of faith. This mistake causes jealously and strife, and we see the consequences of sin and how our sin affects us and those around us. But through it all, we have a God who is compassionate, who sees and cares for people.2023-10-2949 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-10-22 Covenant Ratified_One Way - Brady RobinsonSermon Text: Genesis 15:7-21 In an amazing scene, God ratifies His covenant with Abram, making Him solely responsible for, and guaranteeing, everything that He promised will come true. Shockingly, God puts only Himself liable for failure to keep the covenant, pointing us to how Jesus stepped in for His people who failed to keep the covenant.2023-10-2844 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-10-15 The Relationship Between Faith and the Righteousness of God - Dave CurrieThe relationship between faith and the righteousness of God Text: Romans 3:21-262023-10-1546 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-10-8 Unearned and Freely-Given Righteousness - Brady RobinsonSermon text: Genesis 15:1-6 In a famous statement, we see that the basis of righteousness is not that we have earned it but rather that, through our faith in God and His Word, He graciously and freely gives it to us.2023-10-1548 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-10-01 Luke 12_1-12 - Tracy Singleton2023-10-1550 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-09-24 The Eternal Priest We Need - Brady RobinsonSermon Text: Genesis 14:18-20, Psalm 110:1-4, Hebrews 7:11-8:3 We have a need for an eternal high priest.

Lot was caught in the middle of the conflict and ends up being taken. Abram then leaves the comfort of his land and runs to the aid of his nephew, Lot, and saves him. This leads us to meet a mysterious man, Melchizedek, and see God’s promise of blessing starting to come true. We also see a king of Sodom interact with Abram, which will lead us to see how Abram stands firm in his faith in the face of intense pressure.2023-10-0140 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-08-27 Faith vs Sight - Brady RobinsonSermon Text: Genesis 13:1, 5-18 Abram leaves Egypt and there is family drama.

It is the patient parent trying to get their kid to obey what they are asking them to do. This Sunday we will be looking at Genesis 12:1-9, as well as Hebrews 11:8, and it is incredible the faith Abram had. God asks him to simply trust and obey and the text tells us simply that “Abram went.” God did not have to explain, count to 3, or ask again. Abram simply believed.

What we will ultimately discover is God’s good plan beginning to take shape in spite of some potential issues.2023-09-0745 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-07-30 Only God is God - Brady RobinsonSermon Text: Text: Genesis 11:1-9 No matter how highly humanity thinks of itself, we are reminded in the Tower of Babel narrative that God is unattainable by our own effort. When people reach with their own effort, they will always fall short.2023-09-0743 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-07-23 Humanity - United and Divided - Brady RobinsonSermon Text: Genesis 10:1-32 The world is populated and we are given a representative picture of the entire world being populated. This genealogy shows us what is the same about us, our shared humanity and ancestry, but also what is different. As we read this chapter, also known as the Table of Nations, we will see how God is in control of all of history.2023-09-0742 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-07-16 The Covering of Grace - Brady RobinsonSermon Text: Genesis 9:18-28 As the flood narrative ends, we might expect that Noah and his family will get off the boat and live righteous and obedient lives. Yet what we see next is more shameful sin. But we get a glimpse of the Gospel and how grace covers our shame while sin seeks to expose our shame.2023-09-0741 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-07-02 The Faith of Noah - Brady RobinsonSermon Text: Genesis 6:9-14, 6:18-7:1-5, 7:22-24 Title: The Faith of Noah Judgement comes for creation. After we heard that the state of humanity was completely evil, we see God de-create everything He created. In the first part of the flood narrative, we typically think of this as mainly God’s judgement. However, the author actually wants us to focus on what salvation means and how someone can receive it.2023-09-0739 minChrist Church Sterling Sermons2023-07-09 God Remembered - Brady RobinsonSermon Text: Genesis 8:1, 20-9:17 Title: God remembered While the authors of the Bible are telling true stories, they also are shaping them to teach the readers. The structure of the flood narrative points to the main point of the whole narrative, that God remembered and will continue to remember. After the flood ends and Noah and his family leave the ark, God continues to promise His remembrance by making a covenant, or an agreement, with Noah and all of humanity.2023-09-0749 min
