Sermon Notes

Date: 08/20/2023

Preacher: Josh Peglow, pastor

Series: 1 Peter

Key Text: 1 Peter 2:4-10

Description:

The cornerstone.

The set stone.

The critical foundational stone that sets the course for the rest of a building.

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Josh Peglow continues with our study in the book of 1 Peter and shows us that God is constructing a Spiritual House in which we, as believers, are its building blocks — “living stones” — in service to Him.

And the cornerstone of this house is *THE* Living Stone — the One chosen and valued by God, but rejected by man — Jesus Christ.

Clean Out the Old Leaven [1 Corinthians 5:1-13]

September 27, 2020

Sermon Notes

Date: 09/27/2020

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: The Church: Church Discipline

Key Text: 1 Corinthians 5

Description:

“Shouldn’t this person and his conduct be confronted and dealt with?…You pass it off as a small thing, but it’s anything but that. Yeast, too, is a ‘small thing,’ but it works its way through a whole batch of bread dough pretty fast. So get rid of this ‘yeast.’ ”

[1 Cor 5:2, 6-7 MSG]

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues our study on Church Discipline and notes that Paul’s letter to the Corinthians, seems to instruct a very different and — dare I say — more drastic method for church discipline than what we learned from Jesus in the book of Matthew.

Why is this? …And why, in order to correctly view and apply church discipline, must the church exercise wisdom?

Searching for Lost Sheep [Matthew 18:1-35]

September 20, 2020

Sermon Notes

Date: 09/20/2020

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: The Church: Church Discipline

Key Text: Matthew 18

Description:

“If any man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go and search for the one that is straying?” [Matthew 18:12]

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues our series on the Church, and specifically church discipline, as we look at the teaching of Jesus in Matthew 18.

And what we find is that this is not an isolated text, but a theological treatise that not only instructs in the HOW of church discipline but the WHY, as well — and roots discipline in the Gospel of grace.
