    Onlookers And The Onlooked Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Apr 10, 2017
     | 3,492 views

    The abundance of religious art we see may remind us of the cross, but it can also dull us to the reality that the people involved were real people, not figments of creativity. Let’s take a look at some of those real people.

    PURSUING THE MARK Philippians 3:4-14 The starter’s line for this passage is the Apostle Paul’s polemic against false teachers, whose confidence lies in the flesh (Philippians 3:2-4). “The flesh” here represents self-help religion, which stands contrary to the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. ...read more

    The Great Exchange Mark 15:6-15 Rev. Brian Bill April 15-16, 2107 An exchange is when you give one thing and receive another in return. The Great Exchange has everything to do with Easter…with our existence…and with our eternity. I experienced what an exchange is all about this week when ...read more

    It Was A Good Friday After All

    Do you ever wonder why it's called Good Friday?

    "IT WAS A GOOD FRIDAY AFTER ALL" INTRODUCTION: THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS CHRIST I remember as a child growing up being out of school on Good Friday. I thought it was awesome to get that extra day away from school and books and studying. I certainly thought any day without school was good. ...read more

    Good Friday 2017 (Weak/Strong Faith) Series

    Contributed by Paul Clemente on Apr 17, 2017
     | 4,579 views

    the faith of the first 12 disciples was weak; how about ours today when Jesus is mocked in our midst?

    We remember of course today Jesus Christ, God who became human to pay for the penalty of our sins by taking them to death on a cross. Before reading the story in Mark 15, let us highlight God’s prophecies about the suffering Messiah. Since the Messiah had to suffer and die for man’s sins, we ...read more

    The Fourth Word From The Cross: "Eloi, Eloi, Lema Sabachthani?" Series

    Contributed by Ravin Caldera on Apr 18, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 23,242 views

    This is a reflection on the forth word from the cross, which is a very difficult passage for exposition. These words give a deep expression of faith ("my God, my God"), universal cry for justice ("why") and, words of deep mystery ("have forsaken me").

    And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, "Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?" which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" (Mark 15:34). As Mark stated, about Jewish ninth hour or in our time three o'clock there was darkness over the whole land—out of darkness and despair ...read more

    Golgotha Series

    Golgotha and Calvary are in fact the same place, they are inseparable. Neither can we separate the ugliness of the cross from the glory of the cross.

    INTRO: 1. In taking a fresh look at what the bible says about the events surrounding the cross, I made an interesting discovery. 2. Three out of the four gospel accounts refer to the place that Jesus was crucified in the Hebrew tongue as “Golgotha.” a. Only in one account and ...read more

    THIS IS A GOOD FRIDAY MESSAGE ON THE NATURE OF SIN, THE PENALTY OF SIN, AND THE VICTORY OVER SIN, ALL SHOWN THROUGH THREE TREES MENTIONED IN SCRIPTURE.

    THE THREE TREES OF EASTER MARK 15:33-39 LET ME BEGIN BY WELCOMING YOU TO OUR GOOD FRIDAY SERVICE. GOOD FRIDAY IS A VERY UNUSUAL DAY. IT’T TITLE IS ALMOST OXYMORONIC.

    Last Hours Of Jesus' Life - Free From Passivity

    Contributed by Joanne Chan on May 18, 2018
     | 5,387 views

    In this sermon, we look at how the people mocked Jesus as he walked toward the hill of Golgotha, and contrast that with his encounter with Simon from Cyrene to see what it really means to carry the cross for Jesus.

    Central theme: Jesus denied himself and took the punishment for us with total dedication. We should take up the cross and follow Jesus, which means denying our old self (our comfort, your desires) and live for God because God is leading us to an even better place. Opening: Think of a place ...read more

    Four Ways To Better Love Those Away From God

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 16, 2018
     | 2,977 views

    Starting with Jesus hanging between two criminals, this sermon focuses on how Jesus was a "friend of sinners" and offers four ways we can improve in that endeavor.

    WHICH IMAGE FITS BETTER: Black tuxedo or orange jumpsuit? - Mark 15:27. - Here we have the stark image of Jesus hanging between two criminals. These are orange jumpsuit kind of people. - On the other hand, we have the respectable crowd, perhaps wearing a black tuxedo to show their classiness. - ...read more

    The Advice That Can Divert You From God’s Will

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 23, 2018
     | 3,709 views

    Looking at those who shouted at Christ while He was on the cross, this sermon explores how their demands would have led Christ directly away from doing God's will. How often does the advice the world gives us every day do the same thing?

    ADVICE FROM THE CROWD: “Good advice” from the world can divert you from God’s will for your life. - Mark 15:29-32. - While Jesus is on the cross, the crowd throws several suggestions His way. When you dig into them a little, it’s interesting to see how deeply counterproductive they are. There ...read more

    Jesus On Trial

    We'll be diving into Mark 15:1-20 as we put ourselves in Pilate’s sandals in order to feel his dilemma, wrestle with his deliberations, and learn from his decision.

    Have you ever thought about the power of one person? A dry goods salesman shared the gospel with a shoe salesman named Edward Kimball, who was then converted. Kimball went on to teach Sunday School and developed an intentional plan to share the gospel with every boy in his class. He was ...read more

    Did God The Father ‘turn His Back’ On Jesus?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 6, 2018
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,637 views

    This sermon looks at Jesus' "forsaken" cry from the cross. It examines two arguments: one that the Father did turn His back on Jesus at that moment; the other that the Bible does not teach that.

    A CROSS QUESTIONS: DID GOD THE FATHER "TURN HIS BACK" ON JESUS WHEN HE WAS ON THE CROSS? - Mark 15:34. - The phrase “turn His back” does not appear anywhere in Scripture, but it’s come into our popular religious vocabulary. Commenting on the passage we just read, we often say that when Jesus ...read more

    The Centurion At The Feet Of Jesus Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 11, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 24,336 views

    The story of this Centurion is listed in 3 of the Gospels because God wants us to see what he saw. What did the centurion see that day, and why did he cry out "Surely this was the Son of God"?

    In the days of Jesus the most feared soldiers on the face of the earth were those of the Legions Of Rome. These men were practically invincible. It seemed to no nation of the day could stand against them. And one of the reasons they were so powerful and so feared was because their armies were led ...read more

    "The Greatest Price Ever Paid”

    Jesus bore our sin in His boy on the cross and suffered in our place.

    1. Why did darkness cover the whole land (v. 33)? The Bible says a thick darkness covered the land for three hours, from noon until three in the afternoon, when the sun would ordinarily be at its height and shining its brightest. Some have supposed this darkness was from an solar eclipse a great ...read more

    Shouts From The Savior

     | 7,771 views

    The holiness of God recoils from even the smallest sin. When God the Father looked down and saw His Son on the cross, He didn’t see His Son; He saw the sin that He was bearing.
