The King Is Coming

Contributed by Larry Grant on Dec 5, 2021

Intro: This morning I want to preach about our King. I want to point out three aspects of this prophecy: He is Personal, He is Powerful and He is Precise. When God sent Haggai and then Zechariah to deliver this His Word, Jerusalem was still in ruins. It had been destroyed by the Babylonians in ...read more

The King Of Truth

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on May 19, 2023

People often become obsessed with royalty because they need someone to look up to, to be part of something larger than themselves. But they are always disappointed.

We fought a war, once, to get rid of a king. Two hundred and twenty-two years ago Americans took up arms to win our independence from King George III of England. Some of the biggest issues were trade and taxes, sound familiar? “Fast Track” and IRS reform, 18th-century style. I suppose it’s always ...read more

Christ The King

Contributed by Michael Tkachuk on Oct 26, 2020

Paul presents a superior view of Christ as King with a deep understanding of His death on the cross. Unlike earthly kings, Jesus reigns from a cross. God rules the world from a cross of suffering love.

Follow The King

Contributed by Brian Williams on Feb 17, 2025

When Christ is the cornerstone of the church and its foundation is the word of God in action, the church will grow and will weather the greatest storms.

As we spoke about the word “fear” last week, it doesn’t connote running from God because of dread but running to God, clinging to Him, loving, and serving Him. The fear or reverence of the Lord is our response to His love, His majesty, holiness, as well as His wrath. This kind of fear is not ...read more

THE KING FORSAKEN. Mark 15:1-39. After the Sanhedrin had delivered Jesus to Pilate, the first thing that Pilate asked Jesus was, “Are you the KING OF THE JEWS?” Jesus answered, “Thou sayest” (Mark 15:2).

On Mission For The King Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jul 14, 2025

After missing the point of who Jesus is and what He's doing, the disciples are sent on another mission trip. Here they learn about both the manner and the mindset of the mission.

As we seek to minister for Christ here in and around Poolesville, as we support missionaries in other contexts, I think this same manner and mindset will be helpful. If you have you Bibles, open them to Luke 10. I’ll read the passage for us in order to help us gain a full picture of what’s ...read more
