Listen "Exercised thereby"
Episode Synopsis
Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. (Hebrews 12:11) 1/ What it means to be exercised spiritually . 2/ Our state by nature - unexercised, unconcerned . 3/ 6 scriptural examples of being rightly exercised . *Sermon Summary:* The sermon sets forth the need of spiritual exercise, emphasizing that while chastening is initially grievous, it yields a peaceable fruit of righteousness for those who are actively engaged with it. Drawing on Scripture, the preacher highlights how true spiritual growth arises from concern, meditation, prayer, and diligent examination of life in light of God's Word, contrasting this with the unconcerned state of the natural man. Through examples like Mary, Joseph, King David, and the Bereans, the message underscores that spiritual exercise involves wrestling with difficult circumstances, seeking understanding from God's Word, and ultimately finding renewed joy and a closer relationship with Him, even amidst trials and conviction of sin.
