We Preach Christ

Contributed by Darin Gary on Jan 23, 2013

When others deliberately avoid preaching the Lord who planned & made Himself to be the sacrifical Lamb of God, we (as the Apostle Paul) PREACH CHRIST CRUCIFIED!

We Preach Christ (1 Corinthians 1:21-24) “…in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe. [21] For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom; [23] but, we preach Christ ...read more

Two Crowds

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 18, 2017

Was there really just one crowd shouting "Hosanna" one day and "Crucify" a short time later? Were Jesus' followers really that fickle or were they just running for cover when the tide in Jerusalem changed? And how do we see ourselves in that scenario?

Matthew 21:1-11 (please open your Bibles as we read this passage) The Crowd(s) - The disciples (the 12) - The followers o “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” o “Hosanna in the highest heaven!” o “Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!” o “Blessed is the king of ...read more

The Victory Of The Crucified King

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 25, 2022

Pearl Harbor (December 7, 1941), the assassination of President Kennedy (November 22, 1963), and the terrorist act upon America (September 11, 2001) are all considered "infamous" days. The true "day of infamy" was 2000 years ago, when we attempted to kill God Incarnate.

The central theme of the Gospel is that the Lord Jesus was placed upon the cross for the redemption of our sins. It was an act of mercy, love, grace, and salvation that we did not deserve (Romans 5:6-11). It was also the day that rebellious humanity shook its fist at God Almighty, and the ...read more
