    Jesus was brought before a very evil man who was supposed to uphold the Roman law but compromised. It was Pilate a man who freely murdered. This message examines that man, one of the Characters of John’s Gospel, and draws several lessons from the account.

    PILATE THE PROCURATOR – A DOUBLE MINDED PSYCHOPATH - PART 1 THE CHARACTERS OF JOHN’S GOSPEL PART A. To understand the man better we will start with some secular history:- FROM DON STEWART “Pontius Pilate was the prefect of Judea from A.D. 27 to 37, and sentenced Jesus to death by ...read more

    Whenever there's a list of the Apostles, he always appears last and his name is followed by, "the betrayer" or something similar. Let's take a look at the one who is known for betraying Jesus.

    JUDAS, THE BETRAYER (part one) One of the questions in Sunday School last week had to do with Judas and the storms he was facing. That generated some good discussion so I decided to make him the focus of the sermon today and next Sunday. Whenever there's a list of the Apostles, he always ...read more

    Throughout the Hebrew scriptures, the promise of a messiah is clearly given. These messianic prophecies were made hundreds, sometimes thousands, of years before Jesus Christ was born … and clearly Jesus Christ is the only person who has ever walked this earth who could fulfill them.

    “Jerusalem, Jerusalem … the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it!” (Matthew 23: 37). Prophetic and chilling words given the one who spoke them. They are the last words that the Lord Jesus Christ would address to His beloved city, Jerusalem … the city that hailed Him ...read more

    Jesus calls on us to deny our selves and take up our crosses and follow Him - just as He went to the cross. This sermon delves into that idea of denying the "self" a little more.
