The Dangers of Unfruitfulness

April 6, 2025 Preacher: Dr Gary Cass Series: Anchored In Christ | Called to Courageous Endurance

Topic: Unfruitfulness Scripture: Hebrews 6:7–8

In this thought-provoking sermon from Hebrews 6:7-8, we explore the sobering warning about spiritual unfruitfulness and the risk of apostasy. This powerful message unpacks the agricultural metaphor of fruit-bearing vs. thorn-producing soil, illustrating the necessity of genuine faith and the expectation of spiritual growth in the life of the believer. Drawing from both Old and New Testament passages, we examine God’s covenant expectations, the tragic pattern of Israel’s disobedience, and the fulfillment of God’s redemptive plan through Christ.

Key themes include:

  • The biblical warning against apostasy (Hebrews 6:7–8)

  • The connection between fruitfulness and genuine salvation

  • Christian maturity and the call to perseverance in faith

  • The curse of unfruitful living and parallels from Genesis and Isaiah

  • The significance of being a new creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17)

This message challenges believers to examine their spiritual walk and embrace the call to fruitful, obedient living under the lordship of Jesus Christ.
