The theological doctrine of unconditional election, defining it as a sovereign act of God performed before the world's creation. Because humanity is spiritually dead and unable to save itself, salvation must depend entirely on divine initiative rather than human merit or foreseen faith.

While emphasizing that God chooses individuals according to His own will, the text argues this does not remove a person's responsibility to repent and believe. The message portrays this concept as a source of comfort and security for believers, ensuring that their salvation is rooted in God's unmerited favor.

Understanding election should motivate evangelism, as Christians can trust that God will successfully draw His chosen people through the preaching of the gospel.

Jesus the Good Shepherd. With Brother Chris Manda.

In John 10: 1-21 we see four revelations that should cause our eyes to see Christ as the good shepherd.

1. A revelation of Christ as the Legitimate Shepherd vv. 1-6 2. A revelation of Christ as the exclusive door of Salvation vv. 7-10 3. A revelation of Christs' sacrificial and personal love vv. 11-18a 4. A revelation of Christs' sovereign authority vv. 18b-21

Biblical responsibilities a church holds toward its pastors and elders, based on 1 Timothy 5:17–25.

A healthy congregation must honor faithful leaders, which includes providing fair financial support and deep respect. Pastoring is exhausting labor involving diligent teaching and preaching, rather than just a weekend commitment.

Furthermore, the text addresses the necessity of accountability, explaining how to handle accusations and discipline for leaders who persist in sin. Finally, the importance of appointing new elders wisely to prevent future corruption and protect the church’s spiritual health.

Jesus Christ’s public ministry as presented in the Gospel of Luke, highlighting his return to his hometown of Nazareth. The biblical account of Jesus reading from the prophet Isaiah to define the Messiah’s mission as bringing liberty to the oppressed and sight to the blind.

Through an illustrative story about struggling church members, the text examines the wretched spiritual condition of humanity and the necessity of a supernatural response to God’s word. True belief must result in spiritual growth and obedience, rather than the natural rejection or indifference shown by the people of Nazareth.

Jesus heals a man born blind. Part 2. With Pastor Kellen Hiroto

In John 9:18-41, we meet four characters who warn us against blinding unbelief and call us to saving faith.

1. Parents’ Fear vv. 18-23

2. Man’s Courage vv. 24-34

3. Savior’s Initiative vv. 35-38

4. Pharisees’ Blindness vv. 39-41

The doctrine of total depravity, which asserts that humanity is spiritually bankrupt and entirely unable to achieve salvation through personal effort.

Sin has radically corrupted every aspect of human nature from birth, rendering individuals spiritually dead and incapable of performing any work that is good in God’s sight.

Humans are not basically good but are instead hopelessly lost and subject to divine wrath. Because of this helpless state, salvation must be viewed as an act of pure grace initiated by God rather than a choice made by man. Ultimately, this perspective frames divine intervention as the only possible remedy for the inherent wickedness of the human heart.

1. Problem and Purpose vv. 1-5 2. Power made Public vv. 6-12 3. Pharisees Perplexed vv. 13-17
