In Kent Clark's sermon titled "Free Stuff! (Open Your Eyes)," the primary theological focus is a critique of entitlement and societal issues stemming from a sinful nature, ultimately emphasizing the necessity of salvation through grace. Clark argues that the cultural shift towards entitlement, marked by reliance on government assistance and lack of personal responsibility, opposes the biblical understanding of work and sin. Scripture references such as Romans, which discusses the universal sinfulness of humanity and the doctrine of justification by faith through grace, serve to illustrate the contrast between worldly ways and the transformative power of the Gospel. The doctrinal significance of his message is that true freedom and healing from socio-economic dysfunction arise not from external aid but from a transformed heart through faith in Jesus Christ.
“Entitlement has bankrupt this country. This nation is $22 trillion in debt... There is no free stuff.”
“Only God can solve these social problems. Only God can solve it. And you know what? If the foundations be destroyed, what will the righteous do?”
“At the heart of socialism and communism is a deceiving lie. Every entitlement person is in bondage and most don't know it.”
“There's only one free thing in the whole massive universe... That's free justification.”
