Martin Luther & Faith Alone / Imagine Believing We Don’t Need a Savior – Pastor Hines Podcast

The following 10-minute podcast is from the YouTube site, Christian Sermons and Audio Books.

This post contains a 10-minute podcast by Pastor Patrick Hines on the ‘righteousness of God.’ He frames it in terms of Martin Luther’s experience before he discovered this righteousness that God freely gives; how he discovered this righteousness; and how it impacted him.

In the middle of the podcast is a 3+ minute example of the typical thoughts a woman had on her way home from grocery shopping; the example typifies human sinfulness and helplessness to enter into heaven without the imputation of Christ, our Savior’s righteousness to us and our trusting in that instead of anything we might do.

I have to say, to those who think it is an easy thing to trust in Christ’s righteousness, that it is anything but easy. As, our conditioning has taught us to lean on ourselves. And some have made themselves into very righteous people (read Acts 7-9; and Philippians 3 for the righteous edifice that the apostle Paul had constructed for himself, which was destroyed by the risen Christ in a couple of seconds on the Damascus road).

I have heard Pastor Paul Washer address this matter by saying such things as, the Holy Spirit will be crushing your idols one by one. [Such as happened to the apostle Paul.]

Jesus actually declared, in the beatitudes, that the very first thing His true kingdom citizens learn is poverty of spirit. That means, they learn that they are bankrupt spiritually and that causes them to mourn their sinfulness, they become meek and hunger and thirst for Christ’s righteousness, found in His word and partaking of other means of grace such as prayer, hearing biblical preaching….

Luther & Faith Alone – Imagine Believing We Don’t Need a Savior – Pastor Patrick Hines Podcast

From the church website:

We subscribe to the Westminster Standards as our doctrinal statement. It consists of the following documents: The Westminster Confession of Faith The Westminster Larger Catechism The Westminster Shorter Catechism

We also believe that Christian Worship is to be regulated and defined by God’s Word, the Bible.

Our worship services are designed to please and honor the Triune God of the Bible. We place Scripture reading and the preaching of the word of God at the center of worship along with Baptism and the Lord’s Supper. These are God’s gifts to His church and ought to always be at the center of Christian worship. We are a congregation that loves to sing God’s praises, recite His Word back to Him, and actively engage in hearing and learning from God’s Word.

We embrace and promote a comprehensive Christian world and life view.

There is no area of life which is not under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. It is to God and His law which all people, including governments and civil rulers, will answer. The Word of God embraces and informs the way we view marriage, the family, children, education, politics, worship, law, government, war, the church, missions, evangelism, and worship. In the world today there is a battle of opposing worldviews. There are basically only two positions: God’s Word and man’s ideas. We stand positively for Biblical truth and negatively against man’s ideas which are opposed to Biblical truth.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the only hope for mankind.

Because all men fall short of obeying God’s law, all men everywhere are in need of divine grace and salvation from God. This salvation is found only in the Lord Jesus Christ who died for sinners, was buried, rose again, and is alive today seated at God the Father’s right hand.

We Worship God Together as Families.

We offer nursery during the morning worship service for newborns and infants but encourage people to keep as many of their children as they can with them for morning worship. The audio of the service is in the nursery via speakers. There is also a crying room with a video screen and audio of the sermon. We offer Sunday school classes for all ages, but worship together as families. We do not offer “children’s” church.

All who profess faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and are members of an evangelical church are cordially invited to participate with us in the Lord’s Supper.
