    Songs We Sing: "must Jesus Bear The Cross Alone" Series

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Mar 5, 2025
     | 417 views

    The song we will focus on is the worst hymn that has ever been produced (IN MY OPINION). Why is this hymn the worst? This hymn is the worst because it teaches incorrect theology about Jesus Christ.

    SONGS WE SING: ‘MUST JESUS BEAR THE CROSS ALONE?’ 1 Peter 2:21-25, Matthew 16:24-25 #BadBadHymn SING ‘MUST JESUS BEAR THE CROSS ALONE’ INTRODUCTION This morning we are continuing a sermon series called: “The Songs We Sing.” Part of worshipping God is singing.

    If

    This message comes out of that uncertainty some of us have about the Old Testament and what part it plays in our Christian Walk, so the subject for today is if.

    if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14 This Old Testament Scripture, some would say only apply to the Children of ...read more

    Simon Of Cyrene: A Poor And Blessed Man

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Mar 10, 2025
     | 502 views

    When Simon of Cyrene was forced to carry Jesus's cross, he probably was upset. But that was a blessing in disguise. If he had not been forced to carry Jesus’ cross, he might not have known Jesus and received His grace.

    Let’s read Mark 15:16-32. Last week we learned that even though Pilate knew Jesus was innocent, he eventually gave in to the pressure of the crowd who wanted Jesus crucified. Verse 15 says: “Pilate, wanting to satisfy the crowd, released Barabbas for them. But he flogged Jesus and handed him over ...read more

    True Mercy Over True Sin

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Mar 22, 2025
     | 245 views

    Struggling with Sin? You're not the first. This morning we look at Law and Grace, and how great the Mercy Jesus gives us over True Sin is.

    True Mercy Over True Sin Good Morning. Today we look at Law and Grace, two things that live in constant tension in a Christian’s life. A common knock against focusing too much grace is that it will encourage a lack of love or respect for God’s Law. As Paul says in Romans 6, because we have grace ...read more

    Did Any Other God Ever Do Such A Thing?

    Why did all these men and women give up their lives instead of pledging fealty to the insane political rulers of the day, whether they be Roman emperors or a Nazi dictator?

    Friday of the Eighteenth Week in Course 2025 I call this the week of martyrs. Jakob Gapp, a Marianist Austrian priest, had boldly preached love for all races and rejection of Nazism since 1938. He was beheaded this week in 1943 by the Gestapo. Today we celebrate Sister Teresa Benedicta of the ...read more

    Conflicts, Confession, And The Cost Of Discipleship, Part 1 ( Matthew 16:1-12)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 21, 2025
     | 163 views

    In this chapter, the Lord Jesus will yet again confront the Pharisees and Sadducees for their religious hypocrisy and Peter will confess that Jesus is the Son of God, which is the rock upon which the church will be built.

    After feeding the 4,000 residents of the Decapolis, Jesus and His disciples traveled to the region of Magdala near the city of Caesarea Philippi. It is here where the Pharisees and Sadducees came together for the specific purpose of bringing down Jesus. Their mutual contempt for Him had woven ...read more

     | 115 views

    This is the chapter where Peter proclaims that Jesus Christ is the Promised Messiah and Son of God. This confession of faith is the catalyst that gave birth to the church, with Jesus being the Chief Cornerstone (1Peter 2:6-8).

    Jesus and His disciples entered the region of Caesarea Philippi, located 25 miles north of the Sea of Galilee. This was the territory where Philip, the brother of Herod Antipas, ruled as Tetrarch. It was here that the Lord asked the disciples, “Who do men say that I the Son of Man, am?” He was ...read more
