    The God Who Is

    There's a lot of confusion in our culture about God. Movies, media, news stories, in our schools and even in churches all distort the God of the bible. This message shares God's identity as He has revealed Himself in scriptures through His name.

    “The God Who Is” (Heb 13:8 NIV) "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." (Heb 11:6 NIV) "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." I. There is ...read more

    St. Paul tells us we’re going to be slaves, but will we be slaves to sin or slaves to righteousness (draws heavily on some Martin Luther quotes).

    As we approach Independence Day, I hear more and more conversations talking about what freedom means.

    The radical claim of Jesus is that He is God in flesh whom the Father has sent into the world to provide forgiveness and eternal life. He is the rue manna. There is a chart that reviews the different understandings of the Sacrament adopted from Crossways.

    Saul says to David: "I have played the fool." Indeed, he had. Due to his wrong choice of consulting a witch, Saul committed the ultimate rebellion & finds himself among biblical characters who committed suicide. Should suicide be an option for Christians?

    Jesus is always our example. At the last supper, he showed us service -- even to the one who would betray and the one who would deny. Here we see the Servant; the Served; and the Significance so we can do likewise.

    1. Aim High! There is a story about two friends who went coon hunting. It seems that Jim prided himself on getting a treed coon down with a single shot from a 22.
