Join Us for a Transformative Sermon on October 27th!

Middletown Baptist Church

Join Pastor Josh Massaro as he previews the upcoming sermon titled "Out of This World," focusing on the teachings from Second Corinthians chapter six. This week, Pastor Josh delves into the critical question of how believers can sometimes find themselves loving the world more than the things of God. He emphasizes the importance of understanding what it means to be unequally yoked with unbelievers and how this relates to our spiritual walk. The sermon will explore the biblical call to be separate from worldly influences while still engaging with those around us. As we prepare for this challenging and thought-provoking message, Pastor Josh invites everyone to participate, whether in person at Middletown Baptist Church or through their online platforms.

Pastor Josh Massaro takes listeners on a reflective journey in the sermon preview for October 27, 2024, at Middletown Baptist Church, focusing on the theme of being 'out of this world.' As he delves into 2 Corinthians chapter 6, he emphasizes the importance of distinguishing oneself from worldly influences and aligning with God's truths. The pastor brings to light the Biblical exhortation not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers, prompting listeners to contemplate their relationships and the impact of those ties on their spiritual lives. He stresses that while interaction with the world is inevitable, believers are called to maintain their identity as the temple of the living God, urging them to come out from among worldly practices and remain separate. This call for separation is not merely physical but spiritual, highlighting the necessity of prioritizing divine values over transient worldly desires. Pastor Josh encourages the congregation to examine what their hearts truly long for—whether it’s the fleeting pleasures of the world or the everlasting truths of God—and invites everyone to join the service, either in person or online, to explore these vital themes together.
