  • No Condemnation | Episode 6 | Authority

    29/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the sixth episode of "No Condemnation," Duane Sheriff teaches how accusations affect Christians. Romans 8:1 explains that there is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. Yet many Christians live under a cloud of condemnation despite God's assurance that He is not the one condemning them. By exploring the four sources of condemnation - Satan, our own hearts, others, and the law - Duane emphasizes the importance of understanding our authority in Jesus Christ, especially against Satan, whom Revelation 12:10 calls the accuser of the brethren. Through the resurrection of Jesus, believers have been given the power to resist and rebuke the enemy.Matthew 28:18-20 reveals our responsibility to exercise this authority and live free from guilt and shame. There is a difference between conviction and condemnation. When God convicts us, it is to bring us closer to Him. When Satan condemns us, it pushes us away from God. Duane encourages believers to take an active role in spiritual warfare by submitting to God and r

  • No Condemnation | Episode 5 | Sources

    28/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the fifth episode of "No Condemnation," Duane Sheriff teaches that Christians face four main sources of condemnation. God is not the source of condemnation for believers; as stated in Romans 8:1-2, there are sources we must learn to recognize and overcome.The sources of condemnation are the devil, our own hearts, others, and the law. In Revelation 12:10-11, the devil is described as our accuser. Satan uses accusation, guilt, and shame to try to silence and paralyze Christians. We can overcome these accusations by the blood of the Lamb, the word of our testimony, and not loving our lives unto death. Understanding our God-given authority as believers is crucial. It allows us to rebuke the devil and exercise the power to bind and loose on earth, as mentioned in Matthew 18:18. We are not meant to be passive recipients of God's grace but active participants in His plan. By standing firm in our faith, speaking the truth in love, and refusing to be silenced by the enemy's accusations, we can exercise our spiritua

  • True Grit | Part 4

    27/10/2024 Duración: 58min

    In part four of "True Grit," Duane Sheriff teaches the importance of having spiritual endurance, which he calls "grit." He emphasizes that while believers are called to fight "the good fight of faith," they must understand that there are different types of suffering. Persecution and opposition often come because of living righteously, not despite it. In Mark 10:29-30, Jesus promises a hundredfold return to those who have left everything for the gospel's sake, "with persecutions." Blessings and opposition often go hand in hand in the Christian walk. Not all suffering comes from God; rather, some suffering Jesus took as our substitute, while other forms of suffering are an example for us.The Apostle Paul writes in Romans 8:16-18 that "the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." While suffering for righteousness is part of the Christian journey, the eternal rewards far outweigh temporary trials. We must maintain our faith and integrity even whe

  • No Condemnation | Episode 4 | Goodwill

    25/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the fourth episode of "No Condemnation," Duane Sheriff teaches how God's love frees us from guilt and shame. He emphasizes that understanding God's unconditional love is crucial for overcoming various forms of condemnation.Romans 8:1-2 states, "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit." This verse assures believers that God is not condemning them, regardless of their past mistakes or struggles.In Luke 2:14, angels proclaim, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men." Through the sacrifice of Jesus, God has made peace with humanity and desires only good for His children.There may be misconceptions about God's attitude toward us, but God is not the source of condemnation or ill will in our lives. Instead, His love is abundant and sufficient to cover all our sins, offering us reassurance and comfort. In Christ, we are new creations, and our past does not define our present or future.

  • No Condemnation | Episode 3 | Free

    24/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the third episode of "No Condemnation," Duane Sheriff teachesthe "good news" of Jesus. According to Romans 8:1, "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit." Believers are free from God's wrath and judgment. All the punishments and curses of the old covenant law were placed on Jesus at the cross. By accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you are set free from the condemnation that was once due to you. The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set us free from the law of sin and death, as mentioned in Romans 8:2, empowering us with hope and a new life. Galatians 3:13 states Jesus redeemed us from the curse of the law, saying, "Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us." Jesus bore our curses so we can live free from fear and punishment. God's covenant of peace with His people was prophesied in Isaiah 54:10.Reject the false belief that God is out to punish you and embrace

  • No Condemnation | Episode 2 | Sacrifice

    23/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the second episode of "No Condemnation," Duane Sheriff teaches about God's love and forgiveness, emphasizing that there is no condemnation for those who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. He explores the profound implications of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross and how it frees believers from sin and punishment.Romans 8:1-4 explains that those who have accepted Jesus as their Lord are no longer under condemnation. God is not punishing believers because He poured out His wrath on Jesus at the cross. This sacrifice fulfilled the law's righteous requirements that we could never meet on our own.The prophetic description in Isaiah 53 describes Jesus' suffering and sacrifice, highlighting how Jesus bore our griefs, carried our sorrows, and was wounded for our transgressions. This powerful passage of scripture underscores the depth of God's love and the completeness of our redemption through Christ.God is not the source of our troubles or sorrows, but rather the one who has provided healing and restoratio

  • No Condemnation | Episode 1 | The Law

    22/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    Do you struggle with guilt, shame, and fear of God's judgment? In a new series, "No Condemnation," Duane Sheriff teaches that believers in Christ are free from condemnation. Romans 8:1 and Galatians 3:13 speak of God's incredible love and grace. Romans 8:1 '"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Jesus condemned sin in his flesh so that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us.Similarly, Galatians 3:13 reveals, "Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us." Jesus bore our sins and took on the punishment we deserved, making us righteous before God. There is a difference between God's correction and His wrath. While God does correct His children, it is out of love and not anger or wrath. By understanding the depth of Christ's sacrifice and the truth that God is not condemning us, believers can overcome other sources of condemnation, whether from the enemy or self-inflic

  • God Killed My Old Man | Episode 10 | The Law

    21/10/2024 Duración: 29min

    In the tenth episode of "God Killed My Old Man," Duane Sheriff teaches the role of the law in revealing sin and our need for Christ. Understanding our new nature in Christ is crucial to overcome sin and live a victorious Christian life.Referencing Romans 7:7-12, Paul explains that the law is not sin but reveals sin. Duane uses the analogy of mud in a pond to illustrate how the law stirs up and exposes the sin already present in our hearts. In Romans 7:14-25, Paul describes the internal struggle between wanting to do good and the sinful nature. This struggle occurs when we try to live the Christian life through our efforts (the flesh) rather than relying on our new nature in Christ.Romans 8:1-4 declares that there is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. While we are no longer "in the flesh" (our old sinful nature), we can still choose to "walk after the flesh" instead of the Spirit. The key to victory is to walk according to the Spirit, renew our minds to our new identity in Christ, and remember God has

  • True Grit | Part 3

    20/10/2024 Duración: 58min

    In this message, Duane Sheriff teaches the importance of developing spiritual "grit" during today's challenging times. Grit is defined as patience, perseverance, and endurance, especially in the face of hardship. While the word "grit" isn't in the Bible, all the heroes of faith demonstrated this quality.Acts 14:22 emphasizes the need to endure tribulations to enter the Kingdom of God. It illustrates Paul's return to the cities that persecuted him after being stoned in order to strengthen the disciples. This biblical account is a profound example of endurance in facing persecution. As Christians, we must be prepared to face afflictions, as Jesus warned in John 16:33. Duane warns that difficult times are coming, and believers must be prepared to stand firm for truth and righteousness. There is a need for the church to be a "counterculture" rather than a "subculture," resisting evil while showing Christ's love. Defend biblical values in areas like gender, marriage, and the sanctity of life. As we navigate these

  • God Killed My Old Man | Episode 9 | Marriage

    18/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the ninth episode of "God Killed My Old Man," Duane Sheriff teaches about our relationship with Christ. The apostle Paul illustrates our release from the old covenant and union with Christ by using the analogy of marriage to explain our spiritual transformation in Romans 7:1-6.Before salvation, we were "married" to our old sinful nature, bound by the law. However, God put our old self to death, freeing us to be "married" to Christ. In 2 Corinthians 11:2, Paul says, "I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ." We can't be married to both our old sinful nature and Christ simultaneously - it's spiritual adultery. God killed our old man so we can be united with Jesus.Ephesians 5:25-32 highlights the relationship between husbands and wives, comparing it to Christ and the church. Verse 30 emphasizes the intimate connection to Christ, stating, "For we are members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones."

  • God Killed My Old Man | Episode 8 | Sin and Mercy

    17/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the eighth episode of "God Killed My Old Man," Duane Sheriff teaches about God's incredible mercy and forgiveness under the New Covenant. Understanding this truth is another key to living a victorious Christian life. Hebrews 8:12 states, "For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities I will remember no more." This verse reveals God's attitude towards believers when they sin - one of mercy, not wrath or punishment.Jesus' sacrifice on the cross was a one-time event that covered all sins - past, present, and future. Hebrews 10:12-14 shows that Christ's single offering has perfected believers forever. This means that God has already forgiven our sins, even those we haven't committed yet.In Romans 4:6-8 David describes the blessedness of having righteousness imputed without works. Good works don't make us righteous, and bad works don't rob us of our righteousness in Christ. Understanding this truth should motivate us to live holy lives out of love and gratitude, not fear o

  • God Killed My Old Man | Episode 7 | Servants

    16/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the seventh episode of "God Killed My Old Man," Duane Sheriff teaches about the profound shift in our spiritual allegiance from being servants of sin to servants of righteousness. Understanding this change is crucial for living a victorious Christian life. Romans 6:18 states, "Being then made free from sin, you became the servants of righteousness." This transition is a result of God's work in killing our old sinful nature and giving us a new nature in Christ. Romans 6:20 contrasts our old and new nature: "When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness." Being a servant of sin meant that even our good deeds couldn't change our sinful nature or earn salvation. Similarly, being servants of righteousness means that our occasional failings don't negate our righteous identity in Christ.As servants of righteousness, we're not striving for holiness through our efforts. Instead, holiness becomes a natural fruit of our new nature in Christ. Hebrews 8:12 illustrates God's merciful attit

  • God Killed My Old Man | Episode 6 | Freedom

    15/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the fifth episode of "God Killed My Old Man," Duane Sheriff teaches freedom from sin through our new identity in Christ. Christians no longer have two natures battling within them but only one new nature in Christ.Romans 6:11 instructs believers to "reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus." Understanding and having faith in our old sinful nature's death is crucial for overcoming sin and living in righteousness.In 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, Paul lists various sinful lifestyles and states that such people will not inherit God's kingdom. Verse 11: "And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God." Our old sinful identities have been put to death, and we now have a new, righteous nature in Christ.Yield your body as an instrument of righteousness (Romans 6:13) rather than an instrument of sin. While we may still struggle with sin, it's no longer our true identity. Instead, w

  • God Killed My Old Man | Episode 5 | Holiness

    14/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the fifth episode of "God Killed My Old Man," Duane Sheriff teaches the importance of living a holy life as a Christian. Understanding our new nature in Christ is key to overcoming sin and living righteously.Romans 6:14 states, "For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace." Being free from the law and having our old sinful nature crucified with Christ doesn't mean we should continue in sin. Instead, it empowers us to live righteously.Five reasons why Christians should pursue holiness:Because God is holy (1 Peter 1:16).Because it reflects our new nature in Christ (Ephesians 4:22-24).Because we are saved for good works (Ephesians 2:8-10).Because holiness is a witness to others.Because sin gives the devil a foothold and damages our relationship with God.Living a holy life is not about earning God's love or salvation but reflecting our true identity in Christ. 2 Corinthians 3:18 explains that we are transformed by beholding God's glory and renewing our minds to our new i

  • 4 Sources Of Condemnation | Part 2

    11/10/2024 Duración: 44min

    In part two of this message, Duane Sheriff concludes this series by focusing on the three sources of condemnation: our hearts (conscience), others, and the devil.It is our heart that condemns us, according to 1 John 3:20-21. While our hearts may condemn us, God is greater than our hearts and knows all things. The cure for this self-condemnation is repentance and receiving forgiveness through faith in Jesus Christ.The second source of condemnation comes from other people. Duane encourages us not to allow the culture, politicians, or even family members to condemn us. Stand firm in faith and do not be ashamed of the gospel, referencing Romans 1:16. Isaiah 54:17 states that no weapon formed against us shall prosper, including words used as weapons.The final source of condemnation is the devil. Revelation 12:10-11 describes Satan as the "accuser of our brethren," and believers overcome the devil through the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony. Live a holy life, not out of obligation or fear, but bec

  • 4 Sources Of Condemnation

    11/10/2024 Duración: 42min

    In this message, Duane Sheriff teaches the purpose of the law and its relationship to condemnation and the grace we have in Christ. Referencing Romans 8:1-2 states there is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. Duane shares a personal testimony of once living under guilt and discouragement, believing the lies that he was unworthy before he learned that God does not condemn those who are in His Son.There is a difference between condemnation, often stemming from the law and resulting in feeling distant from God, and conviction, which is God's way of gently guiding believers back to righteousness. The law was given to make sin known, not to reveal God's nature. Romans 3:19-20 states that the purpose of the law is to make everyone guilty before God and give us knowledge of sin. This explanation helps believers acknowledge their need for a Savior and guards against self-righteousness.There are four sources of condemnation, but the primary source is the law. The purpose of the law is not to make people righteo

  • God Killed My Old Man | Episode 4 | New Nature

    11/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the fourth episode of "God Killed My Old Man," Duane Sheriff teaches the transformative power of our new nature in Christ. Understanding this new identity is the key to embracing our new nature and living a victorious Christian life.When we accept Christ, a radical change occurs. According to Ephesians 2:1-5, we were once "dead in trespasses and sins," but now we have been made alive in Christ. This change is not just an improvement of our old selves, but a complete replacement. Our old sinful nature has been crucified, and we have been given a new nature that is "righteous and truly holy."Romans 6:11 instructs us to "reckon yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord." This verse is not about constantly struggling against sin but about embracing our new identity in Christ. We are not trying to become righteous; in our new nature, we already are righteous.Living out our new nature isn't about willpower or following rules. Instead, it's about understanding who we

  • God Killed My Old Man | Episode 3 | Old Self

    10/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    Are you in the "Addams Family?" In the third episode of "God Killed My Old Man," Duane Sheriff teaches how to understand the Christian faith and live victorious in Christ. Many believers struggle to walk in the newness of life because they don't fully grasp this essential truth. When we accept Christ, our old sinful nature (the "old man") is crucified with Him. Galatians 2:20 states, "I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me." This death of our old self is the key to experiencing freedom from sin and living in the power of Christ.Romans 5 contrasts our former state in Adam with our new identity in Christ. Verse 19 says, "For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous." Just as we inherited sin from Adam, we now inherit righteousness from Christ through faith.

  • God Killed My Old Man | Episode 2 | New Identity

    09/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    In the second episode of "God Killed My Old Man," Duane Sheriff teaches the importance of understanding our new identity in Christ. It is vital to grasp the concept that our previous old sinful nature died with Christ, and now we are raised to new life in Him.Galatians 2:20 says, "I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me." This verse illustrates how our old self has died, and we now live through Christ's life. 2 Corinthians 5:17 declares, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." This transformation occurs in our spirit while our soul and body are still in the process of renewal.We have a three-part nature - spirit, soul, and body - as described in 1 Thessalonians 5:23. Our spirit is instantly transformed at salvation. In contrast, our soul (mind, will, and emotions) is being renewed, and our body will be fully redeemed at Christ's return. Set your mind on things above because you hav

  • God Killed My Old Man | Episode 1 | Open Vision

    08/10/2024 Duración: 28min

    "God Killed My Old Man" is a brand new series by Duane Sheriff that explores our identification with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection. This understanding is crucial for Christians to walk in the power of the gospel and overcome sin.Duane shares a personal experience of an open vision of Jesus on the cross. In this vision, he saw himself united with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection. This revelation led him to search the Scriptures and discover the truth about our identity in Christ.There is a difference between the "old man" in Adam, who has a sinful nature, and the "new man" in Christ, who is righteous and holy. God has crucified our old man with Christ, as stated in Romans 6:6: "Knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin."Even though God has killed the old man, we still need to change our behavior and mindset. This transformation requires us to renew our minds, as mentioned in Ephesia
