The Final Post Resurrection Appearance In John's Gospel Series

Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Apr 24, 2020

The Importance Of Faith Series

Contributed by Greg Powell on Aug 19, 2020

Paul anticipates the Judaizers next objection since they were huge fans of the law of Moses. In general, they recognized the importance of the Abrahamic covenant, but they gave priority to the Mosaic covenant. This led them to emphasize law over faith.

INTRO: We have seen the interrogation of faith and the illustration of faith and today we’ll see the importance of faith. Next week is the identity of faith. What Paul has been hammering home in Galatians is that we are saved by faith and not by works. This is the distinguishing hallmark of ...read more

Faith On Fumes

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 3, 2025

Weariness and frustration blur obedience, but grace restores focus; through surrender, God’s servants finish inside the promise their strength could never reach.

It was a clear day on Mount Nebo. The sun hung high over the cracked ridges of Moab, turning every stone to copper. From where he stood, Moses could see the whole sweep of the Promised Land. Jericho shimmered in the distance; the olive hills of Ephraim glowed green; beyond them the ridges of Judah ...read more
