    Border Crossing

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Feb 1, 2026
     | 115 views

    In the Israelites' crossing through the Jordan and into the land of promise there are details which transfer quite remarkably clearly into instructions for our own entry into the land - the state of being - that God has promised to us in Christ Jesus.

    What kind of images do the words “Promised Land” mean to you? I didn’t see the TV show by that name very often, but it seemed to me, with my limited exposure, that this was a traveling family, always ready to pick up and move somewhere new, always optimistic about what was around the next corner, ...read more

    Jesus was dying among sinners, But also dying for sinners!

    Luke 23:39-Then one of the criminals who were hanged blasphemed Him, saying, “If You are the Christ,fn save Yourself and us.” 40-But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation? 41-“And we indeed justly, for we receive the due ...read more

    This is a promise we can stand on. Jesus, who endured all things for us, offers to us His strength by which we can endure.

    Introduction Some years ago, a 14-foot bronze crucifix was stolen from Calvary Cemetery in Little Rock, Arkansas. It had stood at the entrance to that cemetery for more than 50 years. The thieves figured that the 900-pound cross probably brought about $450 and so they cut it off at its base and ...read more

    The Cross was a God-forsaken death for a God-forsaken people. In our reading we see 3 aspects of the Cross of Christ: The Cross of Rejection, Reception, and Redemption.

    Martin Luther declared: “No one understands the Bible unless they are acquainted with the Cross.” The Cross was a God-forsaken death for a God-forsaken people. In our reading we observe 3 aspects of the Cross of Christ: It is a Cross of Rejection, Reception, and Redemption. ? Rejection The ...read more

    The Sign Of The Cross Series

    The people during the time of Jesus’ crucifixion also wrote a sign and there were some people who didn’t like what it said while others saw it as a necessary statement about the man hanging on that cross. This morning we are going to share in hearing about the Sign of the Cross.

    WELCOME & INTRODUCTION WARNING LABELS We live in a world that unfortunately has an abundance of people who do things they shouldn’t. That goes for using products incorrectly—by that I mean not for their intended purpose. Also, people have been known to have accidents and rather than improve ...read more

    In our text today this is a conditional promise.

    Notice the condition on which this promise is made. The Lord said, if we are faithful unto death, He would give us a CROWN OF LIFE. He did NOT say, “If you are faithful a few short weeks, months or years I will give thee a Crown of Life”. The promise is made to those who are faithful unto ...read more

    It is not our words, our strength, or our own person that has any power in the work that we do for Christ, but it is the power of God through Christ that we are able to do what we do and how we do it.

    The sermon that Peter delivers at the temple is transcribed in Acts 3:11-26. Peter cures a blind beggar who has asked for alms while John enters the Temple to pray. Acts 3:1-10 describes the healed man leaping up to praise God. When this catches the attention of the crowd, Peter explains that Jesus ...read more

    There is a cost involved in everything we do. It even cost us something to follow Jesus and yes, there is a cost even for The Cross

    Introduction: Counting the Cost Some things in life are easy to say but harder to live out. I remember a young firefighter in training.

    This is a revelation of some of the most potent truths about Jesus' suffering on the cross and what "taking up our cross" means to us. It's good for Good Friday or any other time!
