Sermons by Bob Vincent and Others

Nothing in my hands I bring Simply to the cross I cling O to grace how great a debtor daily I’m constrained to be! What a reminder to of how important it is to know Christ! In the face of death our only hope! Reminds me of the need to share the gospel! Bless the Lord!

Very insightful

I am wrestling with whether to be buried or cremated when I die. A member of a reformed group I'm in on Facebook shared this sermon to help me in my search for biblical, God-honoring answers.

Dear Diane, Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Because I don’t read my notes when I preach, sometimes I slip up with ages and dates. When I catch that I try to correct the mistake. That’s what I am doing now. God bless you, Bob

Dear YoungMan, Would you care to prove from Scripture itself why you are dismissive of what I regard as a very straight-forward command that women wear their hair longer than men and why they should cover it in worship? Thanks so much. Cordially in Christ, Bob (OldMan)

Key, here, is to stay focused on where the real danger is: in the spiritual realm. It's not just about some length of hair or material covering. It's about having the state of mind which is honorable to worship God. Paul says that the head of every woman is man. So how then can the mark of authority be referring to her own, material head? No, it is spiritual. Is the uncovered head of man referring to the material? Not that either. The meaning is that a woman keeps silent for the sake of her husband - although this is contrary to her fallen nature - and a man speaks words for Christ - against his fallen natural inclination. If a man is in his heart afraid to witness for Christ, how can he please God? And if a woman is rebelling against her husband, how can she please God? You say that a woman may speak in church as long as having the proper outer attire. I say that a woman with the proper inner attire will simply not speak in church and instead confer with her husband at home, even if it is to her discomfort. Again, a man would often be tempted to defer to the council of other people. But scripture here commands that he bravely bare the Word of Christ, even if it hurts or is uncomfortable. This is the corrective paradigm that would have spared Adam and Eve their folly in Eden.

I was so glad to see you are still preaching. Thank you for this timely message on Satan and government (all still under the sovereign God). This helps also to guide my prayer as we see the chaos unfolding in the US post election.

It is good to hear a preacher not try to explain this away as so many do in our day. Especially us in the Reformed camp. My only two objections to what Bro Bob says is in regard to Sarah’s age. She was not 88 or 89. Chapter 17 tells us in verse 17 Sarah was 90 years old. Let’s not change what God has said. Also, when Jesus said “they are like the angels” he went on to clarify with the words “in heaven”. Those angelic beings who did not leave their first estate.

Thank you for allowing God to work through you to put all this together. All the references, cross-references and “therefore” conclusions are a wonderful balm for the wondering searching soul. I’ve been on this walk many years and the more I learn, the more I realize there is so much more I don’t know and likely won’t understand this side of heaven. Thank you again. I really appreciate your closing story and reminder in the last session. God Bless you as you have blessed others.

Immensely helpful. Thank you

This is such a breath of fresh air on such a widely preached topic that still remains misunderstood. Give this a listen. You won't be sorry! God bless you exceedingly and abundantly Pastor Vincent for your courage!

Tremendous blessing to hear Pastor Bob's sermon. Simple Bible exegesis challenged several things I have been taught about the coming of Christ. It helped me to put off my biases and wrestle with the texts. Great encouragement also for why believers have great and real hope even in the face of death. Thank you.

The Open doors website has an excellent update on Pastor Brunson's circumstances.
