    The Meaning Of The Cross Youth Sermon

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Mar 4, 2024
    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,118 views

    The main idea is to understand two theories of atonement - Penal Substitution and Christus Victor - and to explore the significance of Jesus' death on the cross in defeating the powers of evil.

    You know that cross necklace you wear, or the one you see people wearing? It's more than just a cool piece of jewelry. It's a symbol of something huge that happened a long time ago. Jesus died on a cross, and that changed everything. But why did He have to die, and why does it matter so much? Let's ...read more

    Jesus’ authoritative word brings transformation, silences evil, and calls us from passive belief to active, obedient faith that surrenders fully to Him.

    Friends, welcome. Some of us arrive carrying questions that kept us awake last night, some with a quiet ache we can’t quite name. Hear this hope: when Jesus speaks, storms settle, souls steady, and rooms grow still. There’s a holy hush that falls wherever He’s taken seriously. His words are not ...read more

    God has given us the ability to feel the emotion of pride so that we can benefit from good pride and avoid the destructive nature of bad pride. It is important to know the difference between the two kinds of pride.

    A. Once there was a guy named Zeke who had so much pride he could never admit he was wrong. 1. One day Zeke wandered into the blacksmith shop with sawdust all over the floor. 2. A few minutes before Zeke arrived, the blacksmith had been working on an uncooperative horseshoe, and had beat on it ...read more
