"The Coming King and His Waiting People" examines the parable of the ten virgins, the parable of the talents, and the final judgment, showing that Christ calls us to spiritual vigilance, faithful stewardship, and compassionate service. This message explores how true believers demonstrate their readiness for Christ's return not merely through profession, but through Spirit-empowered watchfulness, diligent use of God-given resources, and genuine care for "the least of these."

Jesus warns His disciples about the signs preceding His second coming while emphasizing that no one knows the exact day or hour. This sermon examines how believers should live in expectant readiness—not through anxious date-setting, but through faithful stewardship and watchfulness. Join us as we unpack the urgency of Christ's call to be spiritually awake and prepared for the Coming King who will arrive 'like a thief in the night,' separating the vigilant from the complacent. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/44252142433538 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 06 Apr 2025 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

The sermon examines three key parables and challenges: the wedding feast illustrating Israel's rejection of God's invitation, the debates over taxes and resurrection exposing the leaders' hypocrisy, and Jesus's final question about David's son that silences His opponents. Throughout these encounters, we see Jesus simultaneously offering grace while pronouncing judgment on those who refuse Him, demonstrating that rejection of the King doesn't diminish His sovereignty but rather confirms the justice of His coming judgment. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/32125156254934 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 23 Mar 2025 12:00:00 +0000 Hayden Bernays 0:39:25 no Hayden Bernays - The King and His Kingdom https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/314252319128136 This sermon explores the dramatic events of Matthew 21, where Jesus enters Jerusalem as the promised King and confronts corruption in the temple.

This sermon explores how these Eastern scholars' journey to worship Jesus demonstrates God's plan for all nations to acknowledge His Son. We'll examine how their gifts, worship, and defiance of Herod illustrate true submission to Christ's authority, while highlighting God's sovereign work in drawing people from every culture to Himself. This passage challenges us to consider how we, like the Magi, respond to Christ's universal kingship and participate in His global mission. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/152502124160 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 05 Jan 2025 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Bill Lovell - The King and His Kingdom https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/112324232567089 In this powerful passage from Matthew 19:16-30, Jesus encounters a wealthy young man seeking eternal life, revealing profound truths about salvation, discipleship, and the kingdom of God. Through this interaction and His subsequent teaching, Christ challenges our understanding of true righteousness and what it means to follow Him. The sermon explores how Jesus, as King, exposes the young ruler's idol of wealth, demonstrates the impossibility of self-salvation, and offers hope through God's sovereign grace. We'll examine Christ's radical call to discipleship and His promise that those who sacrifice everything for His kingdom will receive rewards beyond measure, both in this life and in the age to come. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/112324232567089 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 24 Nov 2024 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

When confronted by the Pharisees about divorce, Jesus points back to God's creation plan, emphasizing the permanent and sacred nature of the marriage bond. The sermon explores Christ's authoritative teaching on marriage as a divine institution, its implications for believers in God's kingdom, and how this understanding shapes our view of marriage in an increasingly secular world. We'll also examine how this teaching connects to Jesus' subsequent blessing of the children, highlighting the importance of family in God's kingdom purposes. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/11162402584132 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 17 Nov 2024 12:00:00 +0000 Rev. Bill Lovell 0:38:44 no Rev. Bill Lovell - The King and His Kingdom https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/11924237195166 Jesus teaches a challenging lesson about forgiveness through the parable of the unforgiving servant. After receiving an astounding debt cancellation from his king, a servant refuses to show the same mercy to a fellow servant who owes him far less. This powerful illustration reveals both the incredible scope of God's forgiveness toward us and our corresponding obligation to forgive others. The sermon explores how genuine recipients of divine forgiveness must demonstrate that same spirit within Christ's kingdom, showing how our treatment of others reflects our true understanding of God's mercy toward us. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/11924237195166 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 10 Nov 2024 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Drawing from Matthew 18:1-6, it emphasizes the importance of childlike humility and faith. The message challenges listeners to shed worldly notions of status and instead embrace the innocent trust, openness, and dependence exemplified by children. It warns against causing these "little ones" to stumble and highlights how valuing and protecting the vulnerable reflects God's heart. Ultimately, the sermon calls believers to cultivate a humble spirit that relies fully on God's grace, mirroring the unassuming nature of a child in their spiritual walk. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/101924216301599 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 20 Oct 2024 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

In this passage, Jesus speaks to Peter about the temple tax, using the example of kings and their sons to highlight His divine identity and the freedom that comes with being the Son of the King. The sermon emphasizes the humility of Christ, who, despite His divine status, willingly pays the tax to avoid causing offense, showing both His authority and His submission for the sake of others. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/101224222395889 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 13 Oct 2024 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

In this momentous event, Peter, James, and John witness Christ in radiant glory, alongside Moses and Elijah, symbolizing the fulfillment of the Law and the Prophets. This glimpse of Jesus' divine nature not only affirms His identity as the Messiah but also prepares the disciples for His coming suffering and crucifixion. The sermon explores how this vision of the glorified King strengthens faith, reveals Christ's authority, and foreshadows His ultimate victory over sin and death. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/92024211544191 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 22 Sep 2024 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

It highlights the profound truth that Jesus, the King, embraced suffering as part of God's redemptive plan, and His followers are called to share in that suffering.

Jesus responds with a warning about the "yeast" of these religious leaders—symbolizing their corrupt teachings and hypocrisy. In His love, Jesus cautions His followers to discern and avoid the misleading doctrines that can lead them away from truth. This passage highlights the importance of spiritual vigilance and the need to remain steadfast in faith, trusting in God's wisdom rather than being swayed by false teachings. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/830242154143360 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 01 Sep 2024 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Jesus challenges the Pharisees' focus on ritual purity, emphasizing that sinful thoughts and actions—such as evil intentions, lies, and slander—are what truly corrupt a person. The sermon explores how Jesus, the King, exposes the root of our defiling sin and calls us to examine our hearts, seeking His cleansing power to transform our inner being and align our lives with God's righteousness. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/8182445187351 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 18 Aug 2024 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Bill Lovell - The King and His Kingdom https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/23241315312419 Introduction "When Jesus began His ministry, the old covenant was still in effect and all of its requirements were binding on Jews, the special people of that covenant. Jesus observed every demand and met every condition of Scripture, but it was His own word, which He came to fulfill and not destroy. But for several hundred years the various schools of rabbis had added regulation after regulation, going far beyond the teaching of Scripture and in many instances actually contradicting it. In no area were these additions more extensive and extreme than in regard to Sabbath observance." John MacArthur Indictment (vv 1-2) Instruction (vv 3-8) Illustration (vv 9-13) Insurrection (v 14) "The apostles taught Christians to worship on the first day of the week, the day of Jesus' resurrection, "the Lord's day" (Acts 20:7; Rev. 1:10), treating it as the Christian Sabbath. These changes were momentous, but the pattern of praise, thanks, desire, trust, purity, and service, which constitutes true worship, continues unchanged to this day." J.I.

Bill Lovell - The King and His Kingdom https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/112323214314432 This passage explores Jesus' profound words about bringing a sword, not of violence but truth, dividing humanity into those who accept the fallen state of man and those who don't. The sermon delves into the symbolism of the sword, representing the challenges and conflicts believers may face in their journey of faith. It emphasizes the importance of standing firm in the face of adversity, embracing the truth of Christ, and being willing to prioritize divine values over worldly ties, even within one's own family. Furthermore, the sermon draws attention to the promise of a King's Reward, highlighting the ultimate fulfillment and blessings that await those who remain steadfast in their commitment to Christ. Through reflections on Matthew 10:34-42, the sermon encourages gratitude for both the challenges and rewards that come with aligning with the King's purpose. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/112323214314432 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 26 Nov 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Bill Lovell - The King and His Kingdom https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/7123223592290 In this thought-provoking sermon, we delve into the profound teachings of Jesus as recorded in Matthew 6:19-24. The passage challenges our perspective on material possessions and highlights the importance of aligning our hearts with eternal treasures rather than fleeting earthly riches. As we gather, we reflect on the words of Jesus, who warns against storing up treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal. Together, we explore the transient nature of worldly wealth and its limited capacity to bring lasting fulfillment and joy. Through the exploration of Jesus' message, we delve into the deeper meaning behind His words. We discuss the detrimental effects of an overly materialistic mindset, which can distract us from pursuing a richer spiritual life. By prioritizing accumulation, we risk becoming slaves to our possessions, losing sight of our ultimate purpose and the pursuit of righteousness. Drawing from various examples and parables, we examine the fundamental choice that lies before us: to serve either God or wealth. We explore the potential conflicts and tensions that arise when our hearts are divided, torn between our devotion to the heavenly Father and our attachment to worldly pursuits. Guided by the Scriptures, we discover the transformative power of seeking God's kingdom and righteousness above all else. By shifting our focus from the accumulation of material wealth to the cultivation of a relationship with God, we open ourselves up to a deeper sense of purpose, contentment, and spiritual growth. Ultimately, this sermon challenges us to evaluate our priorities, encouraging a shift in our perspective on wealth. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/metrocrestchurch/sermons/7123223592290 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 02 Jul 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.
