My Salvation Is All About God Series

Contributed by David Owens on Jan 17, 2022

Even when it comes to our salvation, it's all about God. We are saved by God's grace and not by our works. Salvation in Christ is spelled "done," not "do." That's why it's all about God and why it is good news.

God Accepts You As Gentiles, In Christ (So Don't Become Jewish Christians; Ephesians 2:1-10) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 23, 2022

What is faith? Also, "works" and "good works" are not the same thing. "Works" are works of the Mosaic covenant, specifically food laws, circumcision, holy days (inc. Sabbath).

Today's sermon is on Ephesians 2:1-10. But I want to start by reading all of chapter 2. We often make a mess of chapter 2, especially in verses 8-10, and the reason we make that mess is because we ignore Paul's larger argument. Paul is writing to Gentiles, explaining to them that they are ...read more

We need to live by the wisdom of the Jerusalem council. Never make if difficult for anyone turning to the Lord. The death burial and resurrection of Jesus is available as a free gift to all who put their faith in Christ.

The background to the sermons preached at the Jerusalem council. We read in acts chapter 6 verse 7 that the word of God was spreading and the number of disciples increased rapidly and that a large number of priests became obedient to the faith. So we realize as we move on through the book of Acts ...read more

Answers to four questions about the Baptism of Jesus

The Guilt Game

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Feb 12, 2022
