    God’s Design In Man’s Despair

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Dec 24, 2018

     | 5,472 views

    Today's Sermon is about how Christmas is God's Design in Man's Despair. It is taken from Jesus's genealogy found in Matthew's Gospel. It looks at how God perfectly ordered history, how God works through sinful man, and that we have to resign from being our own gods.

    God’s Design in Man’s Despair Matthew 1:1-25 Looking at this title, “God’s Design in Man’s Despair,” it doesn’t look or sound like a positive and uplifting Christmas message, but stay tuned, because I believe you’ll be blessed knowing that God’s has a design for our lives. This actually came ...read more

    1st in Advent Series about Christmas Gifts

    So often we go to see the beautiful Christmas lights, we see the National Christmas Tree lit on television, and look at the Christmas scenes in store windows, and as we look at them we say, inside of ourselves, "Why am I not in the Christmas spirit?

    As Jesus hung on the cross, His body broken and bleeding, His words were few—but full of meaning and power. In His final sayings, he’s sharing with us that we don’t find despair, but hope.

    Second in the series "Meet the Cast." To really understand how to overcome despair in times of failure, we must see the transformation in Peter’s life after Jesus conquered death and rose from the dead.

    Thank God He uses failures! I’m not sure where I would be if God did not use people who continually mess up. I believe there is man in scripture who can totally relate to this. It’s Peter. As I read the accounts of Peter while he faithfully followed Jesus, I also see a passionate ...read more
