Pete Orta's Sermons

If you want a fresh perspective on the resurrection of Christ that will challenge your Christian walk, John 1:1-8 does just that. The power that rose Jesus from the grave is at the heart of this sermon.

At the beginning of Romans Paul unboxed the doctrine of being Saved by Faith, but he keeps pressing on in Romans 4:1-8 to present a real life example of salvation through Abraham's conversion. He tested the church's understanding of God by creating contradictions in their understanding of Abraham. There is a lot to learn as we compare the Jew's self-righteousness to our own.  Paul has to be one of the greatest Christian apologist to ever debate the Scriptures. What a blessing he still is to the body of Christ.

We might not think of ourselves as braggadocios, but the Apostle Paul in Romans 3:27-31 sees it differently. This sermon will give you insight as to how we rob God of His glory everyday. Most of us will say that we do not boast of ourselves with our mouth, but it's in our actions that truly exposes a boastful heart. Listening in may allow the teaching of the Word to reset your biblical perspective.

This sermon podcast is part two from Romans 3:21-26. It is here where you might hear some shocking things you did not know about the gospel. The message strips man's glory from the story of redemption and gives it back to the rightful own, that being our Heavenly Father.

Pastor Pete Orta live-streamed a timely message from Nashville into his church in Texas. This study in Hebrews 4:1-13 gives us the keys to finding biblical rest. The question that is asked is why out of all ten commandments that the 4th Commandment (Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy) is the only one that we think is optional. Therefore, when you find yourself restless, you might find yourself in disobedience, and our Heavenly Father doesn't give rest to those who are disobedient. Hopefully, by the end of this podcast, you can finally find the rest your soul has been needing.

This Sunday, at 11:00am, sermon podcast #87, concerning Romans 3:21-26, are the verses that every doctrine contained in the Scriptures lay upon. There are not many regions or church denominations left today who can preach this like Paul intended. Why? because everyone alive at this point in human history, by default, have a postmodern pragmatic worldview that is added to our understanding of the Bible. That being said, the doctrine of being saved by grace through faith alone is being overpowered by a misunderstanding of the value of our works. This explosive episode is one of two parts.

When we finally arrive to Romans 3:9-20, we begin to realize that our defense is falling apart.  As the prosecutor, Paul strongly carries all the evidence stacked against us to our deaths. At this point, humanity is on trial and all of us have been found guilty. The Law and the Prophets were just too strong of witnesses. We've tried to delay and escape this day of retribution, but here it is right before us all. Listen while Pastor Pete Orta further ensures our need for a Savior.

Here, Paul, in Romans 3:1-8, takes his chance to dismantle the false accusations that were being formed against him. These 8 little verses give us so much insight into how the devil stirs up the emotions of the people to accuse us believers who are moving the gospel forward. You will be called a hater of people, a hater of God’s grace, mercy, and love, as well as a hater of His bride. All groundless accusations that Paul shuts down. 

Romans Episode #07: Paul is trying to daisy chain our heart, our head, and our hands together in Romans 2:12-27. This sermon is a challenge to those of us who know our Bible, but at times find ourselves in jeopardy of blaspheming the name of God to those who do not believe, just yet. As you listen, you will be asked, "What identifies your as a Christian?". The answer you give reveals who"s glory you"re working for. Soli Deo gloria, Pastor Pete Orta

Romans Episode #06: This sermon on Romans 2:1-11 forces us to evaluate ourselves after our conversion. In our nature, we create many defense mechanisms to justify our own hearts. However, in doing this, we make it impossible for the Holy Spirit to convict our entitled hearts. If you want a spiritual challenge or if you have become complacent in your walk, this sermon won’t fall on deaf ears.

Romans Episode #05: Romans 1:24-32 takes us to a dark place in the human mind. At some point God, when man doesn't repent, He hands us over to our own desires. Allow me to open up this conversation and explain God in a way we often overlook. This podcast will also respond to questions we might have in how we handle the debased minds around us. Some of these answers will bring great insight into God's glorious wrath against those who are against Him.

Romans Episode #04: How do we understand the wrath of God today? Why does He seem more merciful in the New Testament? Why are we removing the wrath of God from the gospel today? Is the fear of man's opinion controlling the narrative of the Father's anger? Bring all your questions. Bring all your doubts. Bring all your skepticism. Bring something that you would like to trade in to God, something to exchange for His peace that travels beyond your understanding.    

Romans Episode #03: You might not think you're ashamed of the gospel until you hear this podcast on Romans 1:16-17.

Romans Episode #02: Romans 1:8-15 gives us a chance to compare our hearts to Paul's who was following Christ.

Romans Episode #01: A rough sketch of Paul and his call to the Gentiles as the least of all the apostles.

If we do not get out of our spiritual ruts quickly, we can become like the fig tree that wasn't going to bear any fruit that year. This sermon from Mark 11:12-14;20-25 will not only explain how to increase the amount of fruit you produce, but it might make you aware of the small things that God has already done in your life. That is always encouraging.

Christians should do our part this month to control the narrative of Christmas by allowing the Scriptures to remind us why our Savior was born. Part 1 of a 4 part sermon series.
