    1st Things 1st: Jesus Is God's Son Series

    Contributed by Jim Black on Jun 23, 2005
    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,777 views

    Christians claim that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God... but what does that really mean?

    Have you ever come out with the right answer by mistake? I mean, you had no idea it was right… no way you could tell somebody how you got the answer… no explanation… maybe it was just a guess, but it turned out to be right nonetheless? You’re as surprised as anyone? That is sort of where Peter ...read more

    4th of 7 messages on the transformation of Simon into Peter. This message focuses on the blessing and responsibility of confessing Jesus as Lord.

    Simon’s New Name Ricky vs. Richard. My mother wanted Ricky. My dad wanted Richard in case I grew up to be a minister. Now that I’m a preacher I prefer Rick – or maybe “Flash”. Just kidding! That was Charlie Brown’s secret desire – to be called “Flash” by his friends and of course Lucy ...read more

    Jesus wants us to know the truth about being one of His disciples. He wants all of us to count the cost, so in vs. 24 the Lord tells us three things we must do.

    The Truth about Discipleship Matthew 16:20-25 Sermon by Rick Crandall McClendon Baptist Church - March 22, 2009 *I read about a little boy who was trying to memorize some Scripture.

    Proper 16 (A). We are fashioned by Christ, who is the rock and cornerstone. Therefore we look to Him instead of to our effort, to be the living stones of His church.

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. “Be a Piece of the Rock” “What!? Have you got rocks in your head?” You have heard that expression before. The implication is that ...read more

    Who Am I

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 15, 2015
     | 7,448 views

    Like Peter, we are followers of Jesus. Like Peter, we sometimes have deep faith, and, at other times, a lack of faith. Jesus saw in Peter the same thing he sees in us-building material that can be shaped into a people of faith to serve his reign.

    The Gospel reading from Matthew 16:13-20 takes place in the region of Caesarea Philippi. It was a territory where pagan gods were worshipped, and it is there that Jesus asks Peter a question about his identity; not in some safe territory, but in a non-believing location. Perhaps that is why Jesus ...read more

    Imagine what it must have been like for Jesus! How do you start a conversation with Jesus? If you were Jesus what would you say? The normal icebreakers are not going to work ….

    Matthew 16:20 – HOW TO START A CONVERSATION WITH JESUS Walking into the building that morning (some years ago) a couple we did not know greeted us, engaging with us in conversation easily. How pleasing to go away on holidays and return to be welcomed warmly as guests by perfect strangers. ...read more

    Son Of The Living God

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Mar 11, 2014
     | 11,298 views

    Who do men say that I am? This is an awesome passage showing that the knowledge of who Jesus is comes from only God Himself. This is a grand statement on the Christ, the Son of the Living God. Verse 18 however has been hijacked and the truth must be told.

    This week was the beginning of lent. Lent was based on a 40 day fast that some people did in the early church attempting to emulate the 40 day fast of Jesus that took place immediately after His baptism. Over the years it has become connected with the 40 days preceding the resurrection of Jesus ...read more
