In his sermon "Transformed By Gazing On Christ," Jeffrey Johnson explores the concept of Christian transformation and sanctification through focusing on Jesus Christ rather than the law. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 3:1-18, Johnson highlights how looking at the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ transforms believers from one degree of glory to another.

Johnson begins by emphasizing the insufficiency of the law to sanctify believers. He explains that while the law, depicted as a "ministry of death" carved in letters on stone, can show us our sinfulness and bring awareness of our spiritual death, it cannot impart life or change our hearts. The law, he argues, is a lifeless legal document that kills, enslaves, and hardens hearts.

In contrast, Johnson asserts that true sanctification and transformation come through Jesus Christ. He outlines four reasons why Christ alone can sanctify:

1. **Christ is Alive:** Unlike the lifeless letter of the law, Christ is a living spirit who gives life.
2. **Christ Illuminates:** Jesus reveals the full nature of God, including His grace, mercy, and compassion, which the law cannot fully convey.
3. **Christ Liberates:** The Spirit of Christ brings freedom, transforming our desires and enabling us to love and obey God from the heart.
4. **Christ Reflects God's Glory:** In Christ, we see the fullness of God's glory, and by beholding Him, we are transformed into His image from one degree of glory to another.

Johnson concludes by encouraging believers to focus on Christ, study His attributes, and behold His glory to grow in holiness. For unbelievers, he urges them to look to Jesus for salvation and transformation rather than relying on the law or their own efforts.

James Fetterly's sermon "The Omniscience of God" focuses on two key practical implications of God's all-knowing nature: invoking awe and worship, and providing comfort in God's infinite knowledge. He elaborates on these points by referencing several biblical passages.

1. **Awe and Worship**: Fetterly begins by emphasizing that understanding God's omniscience should inspire a deep sense of awe and worship. He cites Romans 11:33-36, where Paul praises the unsearchable wisdom and knowledge of God. This passage highlights God's all-encompassing understanding, which surpasses human comprehension, and should lead believers to worship.

2. **Incomparability of God**: Moving to Isaiah 40:13-14, 28, Fetterly underscores that God's wisdom is unmatched and independent of any external counsel or knowledge. This further reinforces the call to worship God for His unique and boundless understanding.

3. **Infinite Knowledge**: Psalm 147:5 states that God's understanding is infinite, likened to the concept of infinity in mathematics. This attribute of God, knowing all things to the smallest and greatest details, should inspire believers to worship.

4. **Personal and Intimate Knowledge**: Psalm 139 illustrates how God's omniscience is both infinite and intimate. He knows every aspect of our lives, from our actions to our innermost thoughts. This comprehensive knowledge of God should bring comfort and lead to worship.

5. **Comprehensive Attributes**: Fetterly points out that Psalm 139 also reveals God's omnipresence, omnipotence, and holiness, all intertwined with His omniscience. Understanding these attributes together enhances the awe and reverence believers should have for God.

6. **Comfort in God's Knowledge**: God's omniscience means He understands all our struggles and is in control of every situation. Fetterly encourages believers to find comfort in God's all-encompassing knowledge and His provision of salvation through Jesus Christ.

7. **Ed Welch's Perspective**: Quoting Ed Welch, Fetterly highlights that God's omniscience, while initially intimidating, is ultimately comforting because it assures us of His holy patience and forgiveness. This should lead us to embrace Him rather than hide from Him.

8. **Call to Unbelievers**: For those who do not believe, Fetterly warns that God's omniscience includes a judgment of all actions, urging them to repent and seek salvation in Christ.

9. **Characteristics of God's Omniscience**:
- **Perfect Self-Knowledge**: In the Trinity, each Person knows the others perfectly.
- **Perfect General Knowledge**: God knows everything external to Himself.
- **Eternal Knowledge**: God’s knowledge spans from eternity past to eternity future.
- **Immediate and Simultaneous Knowledge**: God knows everything all at once, without progression or forgetting.
- **Exhaustive Knowledge**: God’s knowledge covers all people, all stars, and all events.
- **Penetrating Knowledge**: God sees beyond outward appearances into the heart.
- **Future Knowledge**: God knows all future events and possibilities.
- **Possible Knowledge**: God knows all potential outcomes of any given situation.

Fetterly concludes by stressing that God's omniscience should lead believers to worship and trust Him, knowing He works all things for good for those who love Him.

The sermon "Christ: All in All" by Tommy Walls emphasizes the supreme value and completeness found in Christ. Walls begins with analogies of finding hidden treasures to illustrate the excitement of discovering something valuable, paralleling this with the ultimate treasure of wisdom and knowledge hidden in Christ (Colossians 2:3). He highlights the richness of the Scriptures, which consistently point to Christ, and the necessity of the Holy Spirit to truly understand and see Christ in the Word.

Walls recounts the story of Jesus on the road to Emmaus, where Jesus expounded the Scriptures to reveal how they spoke of Him, making the disciples' hearts burn within them as they understood the Scriptures (Luke 24:27). He emphasizes that without the Holy Spirit, one cannot fully grasp the truths of the Bible, but with the Spirit’s illumination, Christ becomes vividly apparent.

The core message focuses on Colossians 3:11, which states that in Christ, there is no distinction between different groups of people—Greek or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian or Scythian, slave or free—because Christ is all and in all. Walls discusses the divisions present in the New Testament times and how Christ breaks down these barriers, uniting believers through His love and truth. This unity in Christ transcends all social, ethnic, and religious distinctions.

Walls underscores the transformative power of Christ, who makes believers new creations. He illustrates how Christ’s presence in one’s life changes everything, promoting love and unity among diverse groups. He passionately declares that Christ is everything—fulfilling all roles, providing complete salvation, and embodying all that is good and true. He emphasizes that in Christ, believers find full redemption, justification, sanctification, and eternal joy.

The sermon concludes with a powerful reminder of Christ’s sacrificial love and resurrection, which secures eternal life and continual intercession for believers. Walls calls for a deepened love and cherishing of Christ, urging believers to fix their eyes on Him, the author and finisher of their faith, to experience transformation and unity in Him.
