    Boldly Proclaiming Jesus

    Baptismal sermon urging a bold witness for new Christians.

    Tonight we are going to observe the ordinance of Baptism. That is one way that we publicly proclaim Jesus as our Savior and Lord. I recently had someone ask me about a private baptism. There is no such thing. Jesus calls us to openly acknowledge Him. Jesus did everything He could to keep out the ...read more

    The Preposition "Eis" In Acts 2:38

    This is an examination of the meaning of the Greek preposition "eis" as we determine whether remission of sins precedes or follows repentance and baptism.

    During the last Century, theologians who believe that salvation is attained only by belief in Christ have made the assertion that the Greek preposition eis translated in Acts 2:38 as “for” should be translated “because of”. They assert that the Greek would suggest that one must repent and be ...read more

    Fulfilling All Righteousness

     | 19,521 views

    Jesus baptism helped him fulfill all righteousness. Likewise, our baptism helps us to fulfill all righteousness, that is, to become the righteousness of God through Jesus Christ.

    Fulfilling All Righteousness Matt. 3:15 John was a wild and wooly evangelist preaching “hell fire and brimstone” to all who would listen. He was the very personification of Elijah in his garment of coarse camel hair and leather belt. This is how Elijah was identified by King Ahaziah in II Kings ...read more

    Our hearts need to be convicted again of our sin of placing Christ on the cross. Your sins put Him there, but you can be forgiven in the same matter that the people on Pentecost were forgiven.

    None of us can live without water - physically or spiritually.

    Can you imagine life without water? Think of the ways that we use it everyday – brushing our teeth, taking a shower, washing our hands, wiping off the kitchen counter, cooking, watering the lawn. Water is indispensable! Plants need water to grow. They can’t life without it. When Linda and I ...read more

    Fire fills us with fear and yet Jesus came to baptised us also in fire. There must be then something about God’s fire that we need to find.

    Baptized in fire Matthew 3:11 There is a new term under theologians – historical criticism. According to this theory it means that we can not take the Bible just as it is but we have to be very critical about the Bible. The Bible, according to them, is just a lot of books decided by mere men to ...read more
