    Here we find a troubling passage in which Jesus is driving the money-changers and their customers out of the Temple. What was the problem, and do we still do it today?

    Sermon # 6 - United With A Purpose Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 13, 2023

     | 2,419 views

    Only when we are united in heart, mind and purpose will the people around us know and believe in Jesus. This sermon will teach us what we should do to make this a possibility.

    We read in Acts 4:32, “The whole congregation of believers was united as one — one heart, one mind!” (MSG) The testimony about the early church was that though they were numerous, they were all with one heart and one mind. When we hear such a declaration, probably the question that arises is, ‘How ...read more

    When we think of ministry, what do we think of? Preaching? Teaching? Evangelists? Ministry is much more than any of that. Ministry is the job of every Christian no matter where they are or what they do for a living.

    God Wants A Church For Forgiven Sinners Who Get A Jesus Welcome

    Saul was formerly a ’Preacher of Hate’. He was once a Religious Terrorist! After his dramatic conversion Saul, like us, was a forgiven sinner. He received a Jesus welcome into the Church from Ananias and Barnabas. That’s the Church God wants!

    He was once a religious fanatic and a religious terrorist at the same time. He was once a preacher of hate. There was a time when he was “breathing out murderous threats against followers of Jesus” (9:1). Saul! We heard last week that Saul’s conversion was as dramatic as the transformation which ...read more

    Redemption is like purchasing a slave to free them. Jesus 1) made a personal investment, and 2) paid a price. We are free as we 1) recognize our worth, and 2) chooses to be slaves of God.

    CROSS PURPOSES 5: REDEMPTION For the past 4 weeks, we have been asking, “Why did Jesus Christ, the Son of God, die on the cross for us?” We keep asking the same question, because the cross impacts our lives in so many ways, that we can’t exhaust them all: The cross shows the love of God. ...read more

    I have met a lot of people who tell me that they believe in God, but they don't believe in organized religion. In other words, they don't care about going to church. Why does Christ love the church, or in our case, why does Christ love Bethel?
