    A Foot In Both Crowds

     | 8,503 views

    Palm Sunday: We have a foot in both crowds - the one the praised Jesus on Palm Sunday and also the one that shouted, "Crucify Him." But Jesus willingly took on the Cross for our double-mindedness and hypocrisy. We are forgiven!!

    [Note: This is an original sermon. It is partially based on an outline provided in "Concordia Pulpit Resources" from CPH.] Our worship today started with the story of Jesus’ triumphal entry into the city of Jerusalem. There was a huge crowd there to receive Him. They shouted hosanna, hosanna – ...read more

    It is our most natural instinct, our strongest desire, the basic fabric of human existence, - the will to survive! As Christians we are supposed to have been crucified with Christ and now living our lives in and for Him. This is a conflict for most of us

    18, January 2004 Dakota Community Church Don’t Be A Survivor It is the theme and title of the most popular television series at this time.

    Paul desired to know nothing of the Corinthians but Jesus Christ and Him crucified. The most important question we can ask is what will you do with the message of the gospel? Nothing else matters unless this question is answered correctly.

    SIMPLICITY OF THE GOSPEL By Pastor Jim May 1 Corinthians 2:1-5, "And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. And I was with ...read more

    Jesus defined the crucial test of friendship when he said on the night before he was crucified, “Greater love has no man than this, but that he lay down his life for his friends”.

    In 1930, a movie was made about World War I called “All Quiet on the Western Front”. In one scene, some American soldiers were talking. One soldier asked, “Where do wars come from anyway?” Another replied, “Well, one country gets mad at another country, and they start ...read more

    When Jesus was crucified, some turned away and some ran away from Him. But there was at least one man didn't do that and his life changed forever. Do you know who that man was?

    OPEN: (We opened the sermon with a video by the group “CityALight” and their song “Jerusalem” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wX4ZCHRksBA [fade at time stamp 1:51]). I shared that video this morning, not only because I really like that song, but also because it dovetails ...read more

    Looking Upon The Lord’s Face Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 4, 2022
     | 1,039 views

    We will see God face to face, because we have already passed from this life to the next, and when we are able to see God’s face, we will be, by the grace of Christ crucified, perfectly holy.

    Looking upon the Lord’s Face One of the Biblical understandings that the modern man cannot seem to process is the notion that to look upon the Lord’s face means death to the human who does the looking. The patriarch Jacob, as Genesis 32 records, wrestled all night with God and then marveled that ...read more

    The Broken Heart

     | 17,711 views

    In the passage, the Blood of Jesus was shed by a Roman spear... but neither John nor any other part of Scripture makes note of the importance of Christ’s blood in this story. Is there a message in the blood that flowed from Jesus side?

    OPEN: About a year ago I received this e-mail: In 2003, Mel Gibson released a film called The Passion which dramatically and bloodily captured much of the trial and crucifixion of Christ. Because of it’s graphicness, it was rated "R". The "R", of course, is because of the violence, the gore. In ...read more

    The crowds had looked for Jesus to be an earthly King... but when it became obvious He wasn’t going to be that, they turned their backs on Him and crucified Him. Jesus taught that His "Kingdom is not of this world." What can that mean to us?

    OPEN: It’s basketball season and we’re in the midst of something called “the Road to the Final Four”. They started this weekend by singling the men’s college basketball teams down to 64 teams.

    The Bible says we have enemies in this world. It is the world, the flesh and the devil. We have enemies, but who’s afraid of the big, bad world? The Bible talks about how our flesh needs to stay crucified.

    INTRODUCTION Today we finish this wonderful chapter I call the Himalayan Mountains of Biblical revelation. We have climbed to the pinnacle, the peak–Romans, 8:28–“For we know that God is working in all things for good to those who love him, those who are called according to his ...read more

    I invite you all to come with me to the foot of the cross where Jesus was crucified, if we do not read this passage from our heart, soul and mind, then we would sure miss out on essential spiritual essence!

    Drawing out the nails! John 19:38”After this, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took the body of Jesus.” I invite you all to come ...read more

    Is Jesus Enough?

    In 1 Corinthians there was an atmosphere of chaos and so the apostle Paul writes a letter. And in that letter he reminds them of the focal point of what he taught them when he was there and that is, "Jesus Christ and Him crucified." Is that all they need?

    Please open your Bibles to 1 Corinthians 2:1-5 which we will read in a few minutes. The church in Corinth in the Bible was filled with problems. The simple act of communion had been perverted into a feast for the rich to gorge themselves in front of those who were poor and had no food. The ...read more

    "[If] the princes of this world...had known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory" 1 Cor. 2:8. The Cross was the method of invasion of Hell; it was the Trojan Horse by which Jesus gained access to Death!

    Why Did Jesus Come To This Earth And A Die As A Common Criminal?

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Dec 20, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,126 views

    Why did Jesus come to this earth as a tiny baby, a die as a common criminal. What hope do we have for the future knowing that God himself was innocently crucified. This sermon is subtly hard hitting, giving hope for the future.

    Note: The hymns "The sermon King" and "I cannot tell" to the tune Danny Boy are perfect for the sermon. Introduction One of the greatest yet strangest of stories in the bible is that of almighty God coming into this world and living as we do. ... And there is an even stranger story is that he did ...read more

    What is so good about "Good Friday"? Why do we celebrate it? What does it mean to us today? "And it was the third hour, and they crucified him. ..." Mark 15:25

    TGIF (Thank God It’s Friday) is a common saying, but there is one Friday a year that is known as "Good Friday". What’s so good about this particular Friday? Friday is the day that Jesus Christ died upon the cross, so this Friday is the only truly “Good Friday”. The Good Lord gave His ...read more
