Pastor Randy, I read this sermon 2x. I was interested because I started ready thru Hebrews a few months ago and have been personally encouraged by Heb 11. MAybe you do or don't care for feedback, but as a brother "outside" the reformed fold and experiencing a broader view beyond the Calvinist box, perhaps it may help? You made two good points to faith: hope and evidence, and to the latter, you exhorted to fight for that reality, and ultimately by action, doing, obedience (didn't actually see that word) Yet, the verse that has compelled me the most, you never repeated beyond reading the text. Heb 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him. I know it is hard to say, but scripture in very clear that our action in faith PLEASES God, and inaction displeases, by default. He rewards faith. This is a motivating verse that you ignored to the loss of your hearers. Thanks for the series on Hebrews. I try to follow when I can. Dan

LOVELOVELOVE ALLEN HARRIS SERMONS! This Matthew series is SO helpful for exposition help and for heart application! Thank you Mr. Harris!!!!

Allen, Very seasoned message. Thanks and God be praised. Dan

Wow! Bless you for teaching this powerful lesson, I learned a lot from this and received confirmation!

These two sermons on Daniel about Jesus I will remember always. It is the true gospel of Jesus and His finished work to make atonement for sin and to establish an everlasting righteousness for His people. All this Daniel saw 500 year before Jesus birth while he was living in Babylon. Truly this prophecy establishes the truth of the scriptures. Thank you so much, Such a blessing

Pastor Harris, this is an absolutely wonderful sermon. We need to hear it again and again so we can love and appreciate God more and what He has done for us in Jesus. He took our sins upon Himself (imputed)and gave us His everlasting righteousness (imputed) that we may be accepted before God in Him. Our sins are gone forever just as on the day of atonement, and we have a perfect unblemished righteousness for our own. How perfectly wonderful. Now nothing can separate us from God. Our sins have all been taken away, and we are united to God in Jesus forevermore. And this was revealed to Daniel before Jesus was born. Thank you again. Thank you so much

I was very encouraged by the three sermons on pain/suffering. On this Sunday afternoon, listening to them helped me to shift the focus from my own pain to the Lord and, as a result, I found new strength. Thank you very much

Dr. Oh I pray that the Lord Bring you and your family safely home...Japan is in our prayers during this time...I pray for their salvation and a true repentance of the heart...

Dr. OH...Thank you for giving us a cultural view of Japan...We must begin our mission their to save lost souls...Dear God forgive us!

Please note that there is no verse 11 in Psalm 61. The verse to which Rev. Harris referred was the first one: Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.
