     | 4,305 views

    Why is it important to consider proofs for the resurrection of Christ? Because if there is no resurrection, our preaching is empty and your faith is empty.

    PROOFS FOR THE RESURRECTION OPENING TEXT: “Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you--unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you ...read more

    Sunday morning 2000 years ago, the disciples of Jesus are hiding in a locked room. They were without hope. They were afraid to go out into the streets. On this Easter we can understand their fear as we sequester behind closed doors shuttered windows. Quotes from B. Graham & C. Colson

    He is Risen! He has risen indeed! The world has tried to cancel Easter and shutter church doors. Easter cannot be canceled… 2000 years ago all the forces of hell tried that and it failed. The forces of evil tried to kill the infant Jesus. Their plan failed. The same forces of evil ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 7, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,438 views

    There is a growing belief in the Church that Jesus completely emptied Himself of His divinity in order to become human so that He could be the perfect sacrifice for all humanity, which is why He attributed all of His works and doctrines to the Father.

    "Jesus emptied Himself of His glory, taking the nature of a bondservant, and came in the likeness of men" (Phil 2:7). There is a growing belief in the Church that Jesus completely emptied Himself of His divinity and/or attributes in order to become human so that He could be the perfect ...read more

    The life, and crucifixion of Christ are historical facts as is the empty tomb. Christianity is rooted in historical events.

The most significant event in the history of mankind is the resurrection of Jesus Christ. “Some religions, both ...read more

    This is the first in a six part Easter Series. The premise comes from Phil. 2:5-7 where it states that Jesus "emptied Himself, taking on the form of a bond-servant." We too need to be emptied so we can be filled with the fullness of Christ alone.

    TITLE: “Drained” #1 in the SERIES: “Empty” MAIN TEXT: Mark 14:3-9 Today, we start a new series that will lead us into RESURRECTION SUNDAY! EMPTY! (Allow me to set the foundation for all that I believe God wants to say to us.) I have been contemplating and praying about ...read more
