1. We Are A New Creation
Contributed on May 11, 2020
Just who are we in Christ? Beginning in this sermon series, I beginning using the Christian Standard Bible as a more easier to unstandstand translation over the New King James Version I had been using for many years.
Today we start a new sermon series: “Who we are in Christ.” A favorite phrase of Paul is the term “in Christ.” Paul’s use of the phrase is a whole study by itself. Paul, for the most part was the only one to use this phrase. The NT in the CSB, the term “in Christ” can be found 90 times in 88 ...read more

As A New Creation "in Christ" we also serve as His ambassadors.
Who are we in Christ? That is the subject of this series.

Contributed on May 19, 2020

Contributed on Jun 8, 2020
Continuation of the series "Who We are in Christ." We are called to be an influence in the world.
Who are we “in Christ?” What is our purpose “in Christ?" Think on that for a moment. If we are “in Christ” we are “saved.” We talked about that we are “a new creation in Christ” (2 Corinthians 5:17). If there was no further purpose for us on earth after our conversion, why are we not taken ...read more

6. We Are His Disciples
Contributed on Jun 15, 2020
Our desire should be to be like Christ, to follow in His footsteps, to see the world as He sees the world, to conform to His likeness. We have a word for it, we call it being a disciple. We are called to be His disciples.
Who are we in Christ? We have been looking at this pretty much since Easter. We considered that “in Christ” we are a new creation. All the old has passed away and before God, all has become new! Being in Christ, we represent Him to the world, we have become His ambassadors. We have the ...read more
