"For the message of the Cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are saved, it is the power of God." Pastor Alistair Begg - (Parkside Church, Cleveland, Ohio) delivers a superb explanation of this life-changing verse. World class preaching of the Christian gospel with crystal clarity. Do yourself a favour - listen to it from start to finish!

The message of the Cross: Power or Foolishness? (1 Corinthians 1:18)

This is where I am posting some of the best Christian sermons I have heard. Some I listened to live and uncut, others are recordings I have come across over the years. My theology, if pressed, is unashamedly reformed evangelical Calvinism with a heavy emphasis on a biblical gospel of grace.

In this day and age, "communication" is everything. It is quite something, then, to hear a preacher like Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones, who, in the 1950s and '60s simply relied on good old-fashioned pulpit preaching. No PowerPoint, no pictures, no comedy, few personal anecdotes, but always - as he put it - "theology on fire". Listen to this sermon preached two days after the assassination of JFK (Galatians 6:14) and, if it doesn't deeply move you, you need to listen to it again.
