Bradley Hicks - The Cross Rejected, Resisted, or Received

Описание: Title: The Cross Rejected, Resisted, or Received
Speaker: Bradley Hicks
Series: 2026 Sunday Sermons
Date: January 11, 2026
Bible: 1 Corinthians 2:8-14

The sermon centers on the profound truth that spiritual realities—particularly the glory of Christ and the transformative power of the cross—cannot be grasped through human intellect alone, but require the divine revelation of the Holy Spirit. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 2, it emphasizes that worldly wisdom, intellectualism, and emotionalism alike are inadequate for discerning the deep things of God, which are only accessible through spiritual discernment. The preacher passionately yearns for listeners, especially the spiritually indifferent or hardened, to experience a personal, life-altering encounter with God that transcends mere religious routine or intellectual assent. He calls for humility, persistent prayer, and a willingness to surrender control, warning that rejecting God’s voice is not merely a mistake but a tragic misperception of divine glory. Ultimately, the message is a heartfelt plea for the Holy Spirit to open hearts, enabling believers and seekers alike to see Christ not as a historical figure, but as the living, transforming center of eternal reality. https://www.sermonaudio.com/sermons/1...
