    When Jesus talks about us denying ourselves, taking up a cross & following Him – what does He mean? What does the Bible teach about "cross-bearing?"

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (Revised: 2011) This morning I want us to look at a passage of Scripture found in Mark 8:34-35. "Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples & said: ‘If anyone would come after ...read more

     | 3,570 views

    Most folks have heard about the fairy tale of the “Three Bears” and Goldilocks.

    We all know a fairy tale is not real, but I want to talk to you about THREE “BEARS” that the Word of God teaches us about. The Bible has 3 interesting statements about our burdens. 1) First one is found in Galatians 6:5, "Each one should bear his own burden." 2) Second one is ...read more

    The Willingness Of The Cross Text: Phil. 2:5-11 Introduction 1. Illustration: John Stott, said, "I could never myself believe in God if it were not for the cross.

    based on 10 ratings
     | 23,366 views

    We need to get back to the basics of our faith and talk about the way of the Cross. I saw myself with a laminated Cross in front of me. We need to pick up our cross and follow Jesus.

    The Way Of The Cross 1 Corinthians 1:18-19 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

    Songs We Sing: "must Jesus Bear The Cross Alone" Series

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Mar 5, 2025
     | 483 views

    The song we will focus on is the worst hymn that has ever been produced (IN MY OPINION). Why is this hymn the worst? This hymn is the worst because it teaches incorrect theology about Jesus Christ.

    SONGS WE SING: ‘MUST JESUS BEAR THE CROSS ALONE?’ 1 Peter 2:21-25, Matthew 16:24-25 #BadBadHymn SING ‘MUST JESUS BEAR THE CROSS ALONE’ INTRODUCTION This morning we are continuing a sermon series called: “The Songs We Sing.” Part of worshipping God is singing.

    Jesus Took Up Our Pain And Bore Our Suffering On The Cross.

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on Jun 5, 2024
     | 611 views

    Jesus went to Peter’s house and healed his mother-in-law. Then “Many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all who were ill.” Matthew then tells us that this fulfilled the prophecy that Jesus “took up our infirmities and bore our diseases.”

    The Bible records that Jesus went to Peter’s house and healed his mother-in-law. Then as evening came when it was dark, out of the shadows came many needy people. “Many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all who were ill.” Matthew then ...read more

    On this Veteran's Day celebration, we remember veterans of our military, but we are all veterans of Christ's Army

    Even though Veteran’s Day is Friday, November 11, it’s important enough to celebrate it on this Sunday before the holiday. Unlike Memorial Day when we honor those who died while serving, Veterans Day celebrates the service of all U.S. military veterans. Originally it was called Armistice Day, ...read more

     | 8,363 views

    As the cross represents the supreme act and evidence of the love of God, even so our attitude toward it represents for us the greatest blessing or the greatest sin. A classic sermon by A. B. Simpson.

    "They are the enemies of the cross of Christ" (Phil. 3:18). "They crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh" (Heb. 6:6). Once more we stand facing the cross of Jesus Christ, that wondrous cross which is at once the measure of the love of heaven and the sin of man. For as the cross represents ...read more

    The great apostle Paul refused to glory in anything other than the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. The cross itself was not glorious, but the work of the cross accomplished by our Lord Jesus Christ is where Paul gave glory.

    GLORIOUS CROSS OF CHRIST Galatians 6:14 A. What is the most glorious thing in all the world to you? 1. One would say, “It would be glorious to have plenty of money.” Another, “It would be glorious too have political power.” Someone else, “It would be glorious to have a ...read more
