The Doxology: ‘Our God is Able’ The theme for this crusade, "Our God is Able," originates from Ephesians 3:20–21: "Now unto him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen." Theologically, this passage is a doxology—a concluding prayer, hymn, or verse in Christian liturgy that glorifies God. The term derives from the Greek doxologia, combining doxa ("glory") and logos ("speaking"). Similarly, the Kaddish serves as a doxology in Judaism; typically recited in Aramaic at the end of synagogue service sections, its core centers on the phrase: "Glorified and sanctified be God's great name throughout the world which He has created according to His will." Perhaps the most frequently recited doxology worldwide is: "Praise God, from whom all blessings flow; Praise him, all creatures here below; Praise him above, ye heavenly h

The sermon argues that modern society mistakenly treats wisdom—like motivational quotes and practical advice—as a self-sufficient guide for life, ignoring God, the actual source of that wisdom. Using the analogy of a car, the author explains that human wisdom is merely the windshield wipers and headlights (it helps you see), but God is the engine (the power that actually moves you). Ultimately, biblical wisdom isn't a self-help checklist; it’s a way for redeemed people to live in response to God's grace. True wisdom is found only in Jesus Christ ("a greater than Solomon"), who offers not just good advice for this earthly life, but eternal life and a transformed heart.

The Early Church: Pelagius (5th century) argued that humans are born neutral and can choose God without help. The Church condemned this as heresy, affirming that human nature is corrupted by sin.

The teachings of Jesus further challenge the notion of autonomous free will. Jesus consistently emphasizes the impossibility of salvation through human effort. When the disciples ask, “Who then can be saved?”

A theological thesis challenging the modern Christian doctrine of autonomous free will. The text argues that the concept of a self-determining human will is a post-biblical development influenced by Stoic philosophy and Enlightenment thought rather than Scripture, which instead emphasizes human inability and the necessity of sovereign grace.

Summary: Many enter sacred institutions—churches, seminaries, or ministries—expecting a community of angels, only to find a community of humans. This sermon explores the vital, often painful transition from spiritual idealism to biblical reality. By reflecting on the "Jars of Clay" theology in 2 Corinthians 4:7, we learn that proximity to holy things is not the same as participation in holiness. True spiritual maturity begins when we stop looking for perfection in people and start looking for the "surpassing power" of God that works through our brokenness.

​Summary: A theological exploration of how God’s goodness and sovereignty remain intact even when life is painful, teaching believers to trust the "smiling face" hidden behind difficult circumstances. ​Description: In this profound sermon, we examine the "Frown of Providence"—those seasons where God's favor is wrapped in hardship rather than comfort. By looking at the biblical lives of Job and David, alongside the theology of preservation and divine government, this message reveals that no pain is pointless. Discover how the ultimate "frown" at the Cross produced the world's greatest hope, and learn to anchor your soul in a God who steers every storm toward His glory.

Faith grows through pressure. Faith grows through stretching. Faith grows through the crushing and the pressing of God.
