    The Dynamite Of The Cross

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Sep 14, 2007
    based on 8 ratings
     | 14,643 views

    The dynamite (power) of the cross is displayed in the reaction of the centurion at Calvary’s cross. This is displayed through the righteousness and royalty of Christ, the response of heaven and the witness of the centurion’s own heart.

    The Bible does not give us many facts about activities of the centurions. In fact, centurions are referred to only four times in the Bible. Matthew 8 records the story where the centurion asked for his servant to be healed. “Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just say the ...read more

    Jesus says the words from the cross that we were supposed to say.

    Word of damnation – “Father, father, why have you forsaken me?” Damnation – separation from God – alienation An illustration of when you were alone and afraid would be appropriate here We’ve all felt alone or alienated – lost, rift in relationships with family or friends, divorce, lost a loved ...read more

    Significant truths we can learn and apply to our lives from the tearing of the temple veil at the moment of Jesus’ death.

    *INTRO>In 1966, Alfred Hitchcock directed a Cold War era mystery / thriller movie starring Paul Newman and Julie Andrews, a movie entitled, “The Torn Curtain.” The movie was not one of Hitchcock’s better-known films, as few people paid much attention to it.

    Crucifixion

    A Good Friday sermon as part of the lenten series Words of Lent. (This sermon quotes several historical perspectives and descriptions of crucifixion)

    Four simple words are found in this text: “And they crucified him”. -- "And they crucified him!" Not very descriptive really, considering the severity of the punishment. Obviously, they were words that were meant for an entirely different audience. And audience, who is Jesus’ day, knew exactly what ...read more

    The cross is hideous. It’s not a pretty thing we hang on our walls. It’s not a fine piece of jewelry hanging from our neck. It is the most brutal instrument of death ever conceived by the cruel mind of man.

    For the past few weeks, we’ve been looking at the events of the last few days of Jesus’ life on earth. With each of those events, we’ve seen a sense of urgency. Each week we have seen an example of urgency. But this morning is different. In this morning’s passage, our Lord shows a sense of ...read more

    This is part V in the series - 24. It is a first person narrative account from the perspective of the centurion at the cross. WARNING: It is graphic! The preaching idea: the evidence has been presented. What will you do with it?

    “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” Ultimately, that’s what the final 24 hours in Jesus’ life are about – God’s plan to redeem us to buy us back. We’ve heard from four characters who ...read more

    A sermon on the fourth saying of our Savior from the cross.

    The anguish of our Savior on Calvary was foretold by David in Psalm 22.

    A sermon on worship - on both connecting with the past, and on intimacy with God.

    In the 1960s something beautiful happened in the Roman Catholic Church. It was called the Second Vatican Council In it they suddenly decided to do almost all the things we Anglicans had been begging them to do for 500 years.

    As Jonah languished in the belly of the fish, he cried out to God and sought His presence. As believers of the new covenant we have the promise of the presence of the Holy Spirit of God every moment of our lives. May we learn to value God’s presence and live in obedience to His word.

    We read in Jonah 2:4,"Then I thought, 'I have been banished from your sight. Will I ever see your holy temple again?' (GW) After Jonah was swallowed by the big fish that God prepared, Jonah spent three turbulent days and nights in the belly of that fish. At the end of those three ...read more
