    As we study what the Bible says about Dan Brown’s audacious claims, we come to what is perhaps the most scandolous section of the DaVinci Code -- the assertion that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene.

    Contributed by Russell Brownworth on May 30, 2006
    based on 5 ratings
     | 2,958 views

    Now the question – was Mary really Jesus’ wife and mother of Sarah, the child Jesus supposedly fathered to establish a royal bloodline to rule the earth?

    Many women were also there, looking on from a distance; they had followed Jesus from Galilee and had provided for him. Matthew 27:55 (NRSVA) The DaVinci Code movie will be released this week. The fact that it coincides with Mother’s Day does not surprise me. Part of the conspiracy theory of ...read more

    Part of an Easter series, this sermon looks at the Centurion and his response to his encounter with Christ.

    Just Doing My Job Mt. 27:27-54 Illus. One of the things I loved as a paramedic was that it was anything but routine. •We were trained to expect the unexpected, to be ready for anything.

     | 13,022 views

    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.

    The Dynamite Of The Cross

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Sep 14, 2007
    based on 9 ratings
     | 14,904 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

    This sermon examines how JOseph and Nicodemus step up to the plate at the death of Jesus. How does such strength come about? That’s what is addressed in this sermon.

    March 29, 2006 Matthew 27:55-61 Many women were there, watching from a distance. They had followed Jesus from Galilee to care for his needs. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons. As evening approached, there came a rich man from ...read more

    based on 36 ratings
     | 9,935 views

    In our text we see the singularly most important and impressive truth of the resurrection is a cemetery filled with graves which men were powerless to close. These graves were opened at the time that Jesus died; but those inside the graves would not come
