In this sermon, Pastor Tony delves into Matthew 8:28–34, exploring the themes of "Opened Doors and Closed Hearts." Listen as he unpacks Christ's encounter with the demon-possessed men in the region of the Gadarenes.

**Gospel Power:** Pastor Tony begins by examining the extraordinary power of the Gospel as demonstrated in this account and elsewhere.

**Gospel Costs:** However, the Gospel comes at significant cost. Pastor Tony discusses the implications of the townspeople's reaction to the miraculous event, highlighting the tension between the Gospel and the personal sacrifices it demands.

**Gospel Rejection:** Finally, Pastor Tony confronts the sobering reality of Gospel rejection. Despite witnessing a profound miracle, the townspeople choose to close their hearts and ask Jesus to leave. He leads us in considering the implication of these truths on our own lives.
