Responses To Those Who Doubt Jesus's Resurrection

Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Apr 15, 2022

Some people today still doubt whether Jesus really rose from His death. This sermon responds to some of their arguments biblically and logically.

Today Christians around the world celebrate the resurrection of Christ Jesus. Three days after Jesus died, He rose again. This event never happened to anybody else. The Bible recorded some people who lived again after someone prayed for them, like the son of a widow in Zarephath (1 Kings 17), ...read more

The Abuse And Mockery Of Christ

Contributed by David Mende on Apr 16, 2019

Though Jesus was mocked for claiming to be the King of the Jews, he is truly the King of kings and the Lord of lords and he is worthy to be worshipped as such. I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

Soon, Jesus Will Burst Through The Sky Just As He Burst Through The Tomb, Nothing Will Hold Him Back. Series

Contributed by Coz Von on Jul 25, 2018

The same enemy who tried to keep Jesus in the grave tempts us to doubt. Doubt that the Bible is accurate. Doubt that such a miracle could happen. Yet we have the opportunity to be the people Jesus talked about when He said, “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed” (John 20:29).*

Heaven held its breath. The angels waited in anticipation while most of the earth slept—unaware of what was about to take place. Some humans who were awake spent the night weeping. Others tossed and turned, their minds filled with questions and doubts. Some sat and stared, while a few hid all night ...read more

The 2nd Census (Numbers 26)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Dec 2, 2024

Who Killed Jesus?

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Aug 25, 2025

Who killed Jesus? Was it Judas, Caiaphas, or the Jews in general? The Apostles Creed says “He was crucified under Pontius Pilate,” no one else. If we’re looking for someone to blame, the buck stops at Rome.

One cold December morning in Sunday School, a child was busy drawing a picture of the Nativity. He drew 4 people next to a truck getting ready to board an airplane. His teacher was curious and asked him about it. The child explained that he was drawing the flight to Egypt, when the holy family ...read more
