Sermon Notes
Date: 04/24/2022
Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Hebrews
Key Text: Hebrews 12:4-11
Description:
“By affliction, He teaches us many precious lessons, which, without it we should never learn. By affliction, He shows us our emptiness and weakness, draws us to the throne of grace, purifies our affections, weans us from the world, and makes us long for heaven. In the resurrection morning, we shall all say, ‘It is good for me that I was afflicted.’ We shall thank God for every storm.”
— JC Ryle
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Hebrews and shows us how our passage this morning is one of the Scriptural foundations for Ryle’s outlook on affliction…

He understood what many of us miss when troubles come our way:
We see our troubles, and we sinfully draw the wrong conclusions.

Sermon Notes
Date: 04/04/2021, Easter Sunday
Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Key Text: Philippians 3:4-11
Description:
Filth.
Garbage.
Pile of waste.
Dung.
That’s how Paul described all of his past accomplishments — his background, his accolades, even his religious fervor.
He counted it all rubbish.
Today on this Resurrection Sunday Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao opens the book of Philippians to show us how, when talking about himself, Paul now finds other things of surpassing value: namely, knowing Christ and the power of His resurrection. But…

What does it mean to know Christ?
What does it mean to know the power of His resurrection?

Stricken, smitten, and afflicted,
see Him dying on the tree!
‘Tis the Christ, by man rejected;
yes, my soul, ’tis He….
Good Friday… a day that would only be considered “good” 3 days later. But until then, it was the darkest day in all of Christendom.
Welcome to the Scandia Bible Church Podcast for Good Friday, 2022.
Join us for this special service as we consider Christ’s last words from the cross — with scripture reading and hymn singing.
…Lamb of God, for sinners wounded,
sacrifice to cancel guilt!
None shall ever be confounded
who on Him their hope have built.

Sermon Notes
Date: 04/03/2022
Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Hebrews
Key Text: Hebrews 12:1-2a
Description: Reading through chapter 11 of Hebrews — the Hall of Faith chapter — may seem like a history lesson, but that was not the intent of the writer.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Hebrews in which we begin chapter 12 — a chapter in which the true intent of the Hall of Faith chapter is revealed: encouragement… encouragement to the believer.

The Christian life is like a race. And our encouragement in this race comes, not only from the throngs of witnesses who have gone before and who live in God’s presence, but most importantly, the greatest encouragement and strength comes from Jesus, Himself, who not only is the supreme example of faith… but faith’s object, author, and finisher.
