    Who Is This Jesus? Series

    Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Dec 11, 2018
     | 6,184 views

    The evidence of Jesus’ deity demands a response from every person: allegiance or rejection.

    We open with these words concerning the identity of Jesus: “I can't help wondering how we can explain away the greatest miracle recorded in history. No one denies there was such a man, that he lived and that he was put to death by crucifixion. Where is the miracle I spoke of? Consider this and ...read more

    The true test of knowing God is do we live like Jesus.

    Knowing Jesus Text: 1 John 2:3-11 Introduction 1. Illustration: "Often in the Scriptures the word know means not just being aware of something but having a personal experience of it.

    Christmas is all about how Christ covers our curse by dying in our place on the cross, thus crushing the head of Satan.

    Jesus the Victor Genesis 3:15 Rev. Brian Bill December 5-6, 2015 After the murder of 14 people in California this week, the New York Daily News ran a bold four word headline across the entire front page: “GOD ISN’T FIXING THIS.” In the midst of our cultural conversation about ...read more

    There are three events in the life of Christ that get an awful lot of publicity: the birth of Jesus, the death of Jesus, and the resurrection of Jesus. We have recognized holidays for each of these: Christmas, Good Friday, and we have Easter. But the Ascension of Jesus is neglected by comparison.

    BIG IDEA: We need the body of Christ in order to mature in Christ

    INTRODUCTION: "White Line Syndrome" is a phenomenon I first encountered when playing basketball in a kid’s league years ago. How it works is, late in the game our coach would call a time-out, and instruct us in what we were to do once play resumed. I remember how clear his instructions sounded in ...read more

    We are to direct people’s attention to Jesus. We have faith in the Person of Jesus, not faith in ’faith’ or our efforts. The more you know Him, the stronger your faith.

    It is not an everyday affair that you see a miracle. These men just did and they were shocked. • The people stared at Peter and John as if they were the ones who made this man walked (v.12). • Peter directed the people’s attention to JESUS. He did not explain much about the miracle. Acts 3:16 By ...read more

    A look at Acts 2:22-37, focusing on the Lordship of Jesus.

    "Jesus is Lord". If you want a comfortable life, you can leave right now. There are no apologies for the strength of todays message. It is meant to challenge and proclaim freedom. The Bible says that "death and life are in the power of the tongue" (Prov 18:21) 1. Why is Jesus Lord ? Hardly ...read more

    The sorrow, struggle and submission of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane.

    THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS For most part of the Gospel accounts, we see the charming side of Jesus - His power to heal the sick; His compassion for the weak and poor; the authority He has when He preached the Word of God.

    When it comes to looking for Jesus we see several "types" of people in the Gospels. Are they all still with us today? What kind of person actually finds Jesus?

    Looking for Jesus. There are at least three kinds of people looking for Jesus ... Those who want nothing to do with Jesus Those who are looking for Jesus in all the wrong places Those who are looking in the right places We see all of these people in the Christmas story and you probably know ...read more
