Sermons by Arran Kennedy
Christians and their Circumstances: Comfort (49 mins)
Arran Kennedy continues the series on Christians and their circumstances. He develops on the neglected theme of comfort and ease that we enjoy here in the West. Using Deuteronomy chapter 8, he parallels the children of Israel and the comforts which the Lord provided them despite their murmurings and disquiet. A well worth listening to exegesis on the Christian and their comfort.
Lessons from the Doorkeepers (46 mins)
Arran Kennedy preaches from 1 Chronicles ch 9 on the subject of porters in the house of God. He expands on 3 individuals who kept the entrance, guarded against sin and were marked by wisdom. Arran also gives very helpful practical instructions on guarding the Heart, the Home, and the House of God. He closes with some typological references from the passage to the Person of Christ.
Where Will Justice Fall? (25 mins)
In this gospel message, Arran preaches from Peter’s sermon in Acts chapter 10; identifying Christ as the One whom God chose. It is through Him only that we can have peace with God. Arran points to Christ as the One who received the very judgement of God upon Himself so that we can escape the judgement of God that we deserve!
Who is this Son of Man? (44 mins)
Arran Kennedy preaches from John 12 to address the question – who is the Son of Man? this was the question on the lips of people two thousand years ago. Now that Jesus Christ died upon a cross and rose again from the dead, the all important question is this – who is the Son of man to you?
Leviticus 12: The Laws of Motherhood (45 mins)
In this thoughtful sermon on Leviticus chapter 12, Arran Kennedy explores the ceremonial laws surrounding childbirth in ancient Israel and draws out their deeper spiritual significance. He unpacks God’s instructions concerning purification after childbirth, highlighting how these laws reflect the holiness of God and the fallen condition of mankind. Arran shows how even in these often-overlooked verses, the grace and provision of God are evident, ultimately pointing to the redemptive work of Christ.
Who is Christ to you? (46 mins)
Many, through various methods, have strived to turn their life around by turning over a new leaf. Some have sought sporting outlets, others have pursued rigorous regimes of self-discipline. In this sermon, having read Acts 9, we learn that turning over a new leaf will only lead to failure, disappointment, and guilt; instead, we need new life. We can only receive this by having a personal encounter with the Lord Jesus, by faith. Listen to this gospel sermon to discover…
How can a sinner get ‘right’ with God? (35 mins)
Arran preaches from Paul’s epistle to the Romans and chapter 9, emphasising Paul’s argument that none of us are righteous as a result of our own works, regardless of whether we consider ourselves to be good, or religious, or not. Instead, it is only through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ that we can obtain a ‘right’ standing before God, who is the Judge of all.
