Easter: Where Is The Joy?

Contributed by Pastor Randall Timblin on Apr 6, 2019

This the season for JOY. Although what they did to my Lord was horrific, He outlasted them and brought much JOY to those who would believe in Him. And the JOY continues. HAPPY EASTER!

SCRIPTURE Luke 22:1-7 Luke 22:14-22 Luke 22:31-34 INTRODUCTION Today's Sermon is titled EASTER- Is there JOY? You may have noticed that I did not read all of the verses. It was my attempt to shorten the sermon so that everyone can arrive at home before midnight. This is not all of what ...read more

The Ultimate Scapegoat

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022

What was the Scapegoat, and can it's function somehow be applied to Jesus? Christ made a one-time sacrifice and atonement to cover all sins. There is no more need for a scapegoat, as the Lamb of God became the final sin offering.

I want to begin our sermon this morning by asking if you’ve ever before heard the word “scapegoat.” This term was coined by William Tyndale, the first great English Bible translator, who I will discuss a little further later on in our message. After Tyndale, the word came to be used for a person, ...read more

Passover Jesus To Pilate

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Mar 24, 2018

How much do we really understand about the context behind the trial and death of Jesus. Why were the Jews so insistent that Jesus should be put to death and what's more by the hated Romans?

Passover Jesus to Pilate It is the feast of the Passover in the city of Jerusalem around AD30. The city is full of pilgrims from all over the Mediterranean world to attend this great national festival when they celebrated their release from slavery in the land of Egypt. Now they were effectively ...read more

The Cross Of Barabbas Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 25, 2018

All 4 gospels tell us the story of Barabbas (but we never learn the names of the other prisoners to die that day). Why? What is it about Barabbas that was so important that Scripture tells us his name?

OPEN: Someone once noted that Jesus borrowed just about everything he had while on earth. He borrowed a place for His birth, a house to sleep in, a boat to preach from, an animal to ride on when He entered Jerusalem, a room to meet privately with His friends for the Last Supper, and a tomb to be ...read more

Big Life Little Life - Mark 15:1-15 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on May 22, 2024

What is it about the natural human heart that prefers someone like Barabbas to Jesus? If we don’t know the answer to that question, we’ll miss one of the most important messages of the whole book of Mark. And when it comes to a choice, we’ll make the wrong decision too.

Mark 15:1 Very early in the morning, the chief priests, with the elders, the teachers of the law and the whole Sanhedrin, reached a decision. They bound Jesus, led him away and handed him over to Pilate. 2 "Are you the king of the Jews?" asked Pilate. "Yes, it is as you say," ...read more

Sermon # 8 - Love Like Jesus Loves Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 19, 2024

So many relationships are broken or splintered because of un-forgiveness. God’s mandate for His children is that we should love and forgive others the way He loves and forgives us. This love and forgiveness was perfectly exemplified by Jesus throughout His life and even at the point of death.

Jesus said in Luke 6:32, "If you love only the people who love you, why should you receive a blessing? Even sinners love those who love them! (GNT) As we continue to meditate on the questions that Jesus asked, we find these questions are relevant and life-giving even today. Most of us in ...read more
