John Shearouse - Other Sermons https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/329261526384099 Last week, in view of our annual congregational meeting, we looked at how we may see good days as a congregation. We read from Proverbs 19:20-29 (which I already re-read today), where it tells us that we will see good days if we receive God's counsel and instruction—and I explained that the word translated instruction carries the idea of correction. Today, you might say that we are doing part two of last week's sermon. If part one was about how God uses His word to counsel and correct us. Part two is about the elders He gives to us in the church to impress that word upon us. He is so very kind to give them to each church, More specifically, He has been kind to give us a new elder, Andy Kubik, whom we ordain to this sacred office today. The scripture I have chosen is one that speaks of the work of the elders and of the high regard that you ought to have for them because of the work God has given them to do! https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/329261526384099 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 29 Mar 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Chapter 1 describes the purpose of the whole book and gives us a good overview of its contents. It sets us in the right direction. It shows us how to live beautifully (wisely). https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/1228251616267974 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 28 Dec 2025 12:00:00 +0000 Rev. John Shearouse 0:48:34 no Rev. John Shearouse - Other Sermons https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/525251543567254 Since we have three new communicants and three new members that we are publicly welcoming today, I thought it would be a good time to have a message about what it means to be a true disciple of Jesus Christ. What is actually involved? Essentially, a disciple is one who comes to follow his master and to be like him. When you come to be Jesus's disciple, He teaches you how to live in harmony with God. He came to restore us to God, and that is exactly what He does. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/525251543567254 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 25 May 2025 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

All four of them were baptised in this congregation over a decade ago. This sets before us the two-fold pattern the Lord gave us in the Old and New Testament: He receives our children at infancy when their believing parents present them. He also expects them to affirm His covenant when they are of sufficient maturity. Since these two aspects in a child's life are providentially set before us, I thought it would be a wonderful opportunity to preach the relationship of baptism and profession of faith. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/39251525376370 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 09 Mar 2025 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

A lot of Christians have no idea what church discipline is or how it is supposed to work—many have never once seen it done or heard it spoken of in their churches. But it is something the church is commanded to do when one of our members rebels against God and refuses repent. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/121241637355066 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 01 Dec 2024 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

After these men had some training, the session called a congregational meeting on Nov 3rd so the congregation could express their will concerning these men. Both were approved. Before that vote, I preached on Acts 6:1-7 on the qualification and method of selecting deacons. Today, for their ordination and installation, I will preach from the same text on the need and work of deacons. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/1124241618435845 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 24 Nov 2024 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

It is the reason He gives in the Sermon on the Mt.—a sermon about His kingdom. At the heart of this sermon, Jesus declared that He came to fulfill the Law and the Prophets. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/1231231617321401 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 31 Dec 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

But why did He come? Even people who go to church and keep Christmas often don't know. You need to know why He came—in fact, everyone does. So I am going to take up this subject today, that you might know, that you might know more fully, and that you might be able to tell others. Jesus often spoke about why He came. He explained it from a lot of different angles. Joel Beeke has a little book that gives 31 reasons why He came. But this morning I am going to focus on what Jesus said in John 10—especially John 10:10. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/1224231633388047 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 24 Dec 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Does He see what is going on? Why doesn't He do anything? Does He care? Today I am going to break from our regular sermon series to answer these questions. If you really want to know the answer, it is revealed in the Bible. Turn to Matthew 23 and I will show you. Here we have our Lord Jesus Christ. In Him, we are able to see what God Almighty is like as a human. What is the attitude of this man when He sees things like destructive fires come upon us? In Matthew 23, we are shown how He looks on such calamities. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/64231649551640 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 04 Jun 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

John Shearouse - Other Sermons https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/514231641595116 In this entire epistle, one of Peter's main themes is that God has given us a glorious inheritance, reserved for us in heaven, but that until we are brought to glory, it will be necessary for us to patiently respond to suffering with humble dependence on Christ. In 1 Peter 5, He applies this theme to church leadership and those under their leadership. In short, He tells them how to walk together as shepherds and sheep in the grace of God. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/514231641595116 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 14 May 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

As we are members of the church of Jesus Christ, I thought it would be helpful for us to consider our true identity… not in a specific way as a particular congregation or denomination, but in a very general way as those who are baptised into Christ Jesus. Paul takes up this topic in Romans 5 & 6. In Romans 5:12-21, he contrasts two great identities (or realities). He tells us that we are either in Adam or in Christ. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/326231541118168 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 26 Mar 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rev. John Shearouse 0:55:18 no Rev.

The church has often been very confused about this. Many in the church today see daily work as a necessary evil. In the early church, disdain for everyday work was also very common (1 Tim 4:1-5). In the Protestant Reformation of the 16th century, a biblical view of work was restored. The reformers came to understand that all lawful callings are service to God. This is the proper understanding of the priesthood of the believer—that we are to offer up our daily labour to God as a pleasing offering. Today I want to show you what the Bible says about this. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/619220585187 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 19 Jun 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

It is very harmful to have offenses lodging in your heart that you do not deal with.

First Corinthians 5 is a chapter in the Bible where the Corinthians are urged to exercise church discipline and are shown how essential it is if they want to continue as a true church. As a congregation that recently had to remove a family by church discipline, we are going to look at this chapter that we may learn how important it is for us to do this. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/313221837184628 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 13 Mar 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

This week, it is a sermon for the New Year. I hear a lot of people talking about what a hard year 2020 has been and how glad they will be when it is over. They say that they hope very much that 2021 will be a much better year. Certainly, it is understandable why people would say this. I don't need to go over all the difficulties that we have experienced in 2020. But what I do want to do is help you learn how to look at your hardships with joy as God has commanded you to do. The truth is that many Christians have way too much self-pity right now about their hardships and we need to prepare for the New Year, not by engaging in a lot of wishful thinking, but by adjusting our attitude about our hardships. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/122720157543779 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 27 Dec 2020 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

I often preach special sermons on subjects that pertain to matters that are on everyone's mind (matters like the virus, Christmas, Easter, or a calamity). However, as we have some new people with us, I want to explain something to you. The elders of this church do not believe that either we or any church counsel has the authority to institute holy days. God has reserved that authority for Himself. The promise of shalom is found in verses 1-5. Isaiah does not use the word shalom here, but he is talking about shalom. First, he promises that where there was deep darkness, the light will shine (9:1-2) True believers were disturbed by what they had seen in this part of Israel: darkness. But Isaiah declares that in this place, light would especially shine! https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/12202033448261 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 20 Dec 2020 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

It clears up after a few minutes. Today we are breaking from our regular sermon series in Mark to consider a subject that should be of great interest to us at this time. We are a congregation that has been meeting in two places for two reasons. However, the NS Government no longer allows us to meet in Halifax. Soon, we may not be able to meet in Glenholme either. All this being so, I thought it would be helpful to have a sermon on Sabbath Worship and Pandemics. I will begin by looking at the worship that God has appointed in normal circumstances. Then at what the Bible says regarding suspending worship in a Pandemic. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/1128201930238114 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 29 Nov 2020 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

I think a lot of us have become weary and faint. Perhaps you have been beaten down by the Coronavirus, the shooting, hurricane season. Maybe you have family issues, health issues, tiredness, financial pressure, fear, frustration, disappointment, perhaps bitterness or anger. These things have made you weary. But that kind of weariness that you ought to be the most concerned about is weariness in serving God. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/92020044401297 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 20 Sep 2020 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Perhaps you are someone who has sometimes wondered if the ministry is something that God would have you to do. In 1 Tim 3:1, we are told that it is a good thing to desire, and I hope very much that this sermon will help you in the process of discerning if God is calling you. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/532025745956 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 03 May 2020 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

We saw that God sent the coronavirus because of our sin. We saw that He did it in mercy that we might return to Him. I concluded the sermon by urging you to be sure that you have returned to God, and to do what you can, on your part, to urge our society and our world return to Him. Returning to God should be our principle business in a crisis like this. Whenever we do turn to God in times of crisis, we pray to Him. We have an example of prayer in such times in Daniel chapter 9. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/321202031315041 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 22 Mar 2020 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

John Shearouse - Other Sermons https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/31320215115407 Today, I am breaking from our regular sermon series in Mark to address the subject of coronavirus. The whole world is full of discussion and advice about what to do to protect ourselves. There are many predictions about how widespread and how fatal it will be. There is frankly much that is unknown. While I am thankful for a lot of good work that is being done, there is one grand omission in this whole matter that stands out. Although there are some leaders (though not very many) who have mentioned God and called for prayer, there are very few who have called for repentance before God. Since there is so little true acknowledgement of God about coronavirus, I, as a Christian minister, want to do my part to speak the truth from His Holy Word. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/31320215115407 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 15 Mar 2020 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.
