     | 9,912 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

    This sermon looks at the physical signs combined with the final words of Christ on the cross - and what we can witness from them.

    April 14, 2006 Matthew 27:45-54 From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land. About the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?”—which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” When some of those standing there heard ...read more

    based on 44 ratings
     | 12,987 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. We’ve heard from four characters who ...read more

    This salvation message takes a look at the person of Jesus Christ through the eyes of the Roman Centurion. A powerful testimony of a ruthless man of power who became a changed man of God.

    Matt. 27:54, Mark 15:39, and Luke 23:47 This morning, we want to take these three verses and try to look through the eyes of a hardened man. The centurion was a man who was dedicated to the Roman army. He was the highest ranking soldier that a non commissioned officer could achieve, and as ...read more

    based on 24 ratings
     | 5,553 views

    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.

    The Dynamite Of The Cross

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Sep 14, 2007
    based on 9 ratings
     | 14,875 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
