     | 1,423 views

    How could the disciples be so thick that they would not believe the resurrection? Disbelief translated all the truth of the women’s testimony and joy to nonsense. As the fact of the resurrection spread, joy and excitement replaced the sorrow and defeatism they all had.

    THE RESURRECTION - THE DEVOTED WOMEN AT THE TOMB – RESURRECTION MESSAGE FOR EASTER – PART 2 We continue to examine this loyal group of women who went to the tomb early on Sunday morning carrying their prepared spices but when they arrived, the tomb was open and the body of Jesus was missing.

    Either Jesus is who He said He is – or He is a liar … He cannot be both. We come to church today (of all days) to celebrate where our hope comes from; but we must see/admit our need for a Savior.

     | 4,327 views

    To an unchurched, Biblically illiterate population the resurrection of Jesus from the dead may be confusing or even rejected out of hand as a fable. It is only when we see it in its proper context that we can even start to grasp the magnitude of this great series of events.

    Why Is The Resurrection Important? Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:3-5 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the ...read more

    The beautiful title "Son of Man" is important to the believer. This message looks at how this title establishes Jesus’ messiahship, how it establishes Jesus’ humanity, and how it establishes mankind’s victory over sin and death.

    There is a beautiful praise song by Travis Ryan entitled, “Son of God, Son of Man” that goes like this: “Holy King on Heaven’s throne, heart of mercy to atone; so He takes on flesh and bone as angels sing Hallelujah. Son of God, Son of Man; Heaven’s Lion, perfect Lamb. Suffering servant, Great I ...read more
