1 Peter 1:5 Pastor Ralph Ovadal 68 minutes Our inheritance of eternal life is secured and kept secure for us, the heirs of eternal life, by the power of God. If the promise of salvation is a lively hope, a sure certainty, because of the power of God, then the security of the true believer is just as certain because it too is by the power of God. Verse four speaks of the inheritance kept for the believer. Verse five speaks of the believer kept for the inheritance. Our salvation cannot be a lively hope reserved for us by the power of God if we are not kept by the power of God to receive it. The believer's promise of salvation cannot rest on a rock if the believer's security rests on the shifting sand of human effort. ![]()

The archives contained here are incomplete. As time permits, we will continue to upload the many hundreds of sermons and Heart of the Matter programs which were posted on our old audio page on another site.
Important: SermonAudio tags will appear on some of the messages found on this web site. We are not in any way affiliated with SermonAudio! Please read the following explanation.
Those who listen to archived sermons or Heart of the Matter programs on this web site will notice that, currently, when they download some of those sermons and HOM programs that a SermonAudio logo appears. This is because Pilgrims Covenant Church messages were for a number of years posted at SermonAudio. But due to the increasingly deep compromise of SermonAudio in posting sermons from ministers unfaithful either in doctrine or practice or both, and also on account of the many corrupt conferences advertised on SermonAudio, we withdrew from SermonAudio. However, I did not realize when posting our sermons and programs on that site on a page for which we paid that the management was tagging our MP3 files with the logo of SermonAudio. We are working to remove the SermonAudio logo from all of the sermons and programs posted on this site which were previously posted at SermonAudio. However, this takes much time; so we felt it important to post this explanation and also this warning concerning SermonAudio, a web site with many sound ministers, but also many which are corrupting the Lord's blood-bought church. |
