Romans 2:6–11 Sermon at Eastmont Church — In this powerful teaching, Paul reminds us that God judges every person impartially, rendering reward or consequence based on our actions. Whether seeking eternal life through perseverance in doing good or facing God's wrath for self-seeking disobedience, the message is clear: our deeds matter.

Romans 2:2-5 Jul 21, 2025

Show notes

In this sermon on Romans 2:2–5, Pastor Blaine confronts the danger of self-righteousness. While chapter 1 exposes open rebellion against God, chapter 2 turns to those who judge others yet commit the same sins, showing that hypocrisy and presuming on God's kindness are equally condemning. Paul warns that God's patience and forbearance are not signs of indifference but merciful gifts meant to lead us to repentance. The message emphasizes that everyone is storing up either wrath or eternal life depending on how they respond to God's grace, and that true repentance—both positional at salvation and ongoing in daily life—must mark the believer. Blaine challenges us to fight self-righteousness through confession, repentance, and gratitude, reminding us that revival always begins with a right view of God's holiness and our desperate need for the cross of Christ.

Romans 2:1 Jul 13, 2025

Show notes

In this sermon on Romans 2:1, Pastor Blaine addresses the universal tendency to judge others while ignoring our own sin. Paul warns that when we judge, we expose ourselves to the very same standard we impose on others, revealing our guilt before God. Blaine explains the difference between sinful judgment—marked by hypocrisy, arrogance, favoritism, and self-righteousness—and righteous judgment, which lovingly calls sin what it is, confronts with humility, and points people to Christ. Drawing from Matthew 7, Galatians 6, and Nathan's confrontation of David, he reminds us that we must first deal honestly with our own sin, then speak truth with gentleness. Christians are called to avoid acting as if they are God while also refusing to stay silent about sin; instead, we proclaim the gospel with humility, courage, and conviction, as sinners saved by grace pointing others to the same Savior.

Romans 1:29-32 Jul 06, 2025

Show notes

In this sermon on Romans 1:29–32, Pastor Blaine walks through Paul's long list of sins that flow from rejecting God, exposing not just cultural depravity but also the hidden sins of our own hearts. He groups them into sins of the mind, heart, tongue, and actions—ranging from envy, deceit, gossip, and arrogance to murder, ruthlessness, and disobedience to parents—showing that all of us fall under this indictment. Blaine warns against both committing and approving of sin, reminding believers that even passive affirmation or silence can be sinful. He calls the church to confession, repentance, and a resolved fight against sin, not with excuses or victimhood, but with honesty before God, accountability with others, and dependence on the finished work of Christ. Communion, then, becomes a reminder that while we wage war against sin, Jesus has already borne its penalty at the cross, and His blood is stronger than all our corruption.

Romans 1:24-28 | Practical Application Jun 15, 2025

Show notes

In this sermon, Pastor Blaine provides a practical grid for navigating cultural questions, especially around LGBTQ issues. He outlines four categories: clear biblical commands, contextual principles, wisdom, and Christian liberty. Using this filter, he argues that Christians cannot attend same-sex weddings or use preferred pronouns, since doing so affirms what Scripture calls untrue. He emphasizes that standing firm on truth may strain relationships, but faithfulness to Christ must come first. At the same time, believers are called to speak truth with love, live graciously, and be a paradox to the world—holding conviction without cruelty and welcoming people back with the gospel when they turn to Christ.

Romans 1:28 Jun 08, 2025

Show notes

In this sermon on Romans 1:28, Pastor Blaine explains Paul's teaching on God giving people over to a "debased mind," connecting it to today's cultural confusion about sexuality and gender. He traces how rejecting God leads to distorted views of sexuality, walking through the LGBTQ acronym and showing its internal contradictions—particularly how transgenderism and queer theory reject the created order and undermine logic itself. Blaine argues that the movement is not merely sexual but spiritual, offering counterfeit versions of Christian truths like new life, baptism, community, discipleship, and sacred days. He urges believers to see those caught in this movement not as enemies but as the mission field, to walk in faith, study God's Word, proclaim truth with love, and pray for revival in their city.

Romans 1:26-27 | Part 2 Jun 01, 2025

Show notes

In this follow-up sermon on homosexuality, Pastor Blaine moves from biblical exposition to practical application, addressing same-sex attraction within the church and the cultural debate over "conversion therapy." From James 1, he clarifies that temptation itself is not sin, but desires must not be indulged in the mind or body, since true identity is found in Christ, not in sexual desires or labels. He warns against cultural pressure that redefines sin and insists Christians must reject false premises, fight sinful thoughts, and call people to repentance and faith in Jesus. On conversion therapy, he exposes how the term is misused to lump together abusive practices with simple biblical counseling, and he urges believers to define terms, reject false narratives, and continue preaching the gospel invitation to new life in Christ. The message closes with Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman in John 4, showing how Christians should engage others: with intentionality, clarity, truth, and compassion—offering living water and true freedom found only in Christ.
