What does it mean to be in Christ? Let’s allow the Bible to tell us. Several churches claim that eternal life is only available within their walls. Who does Jesus say will have eternal life?

Christ’s Childhood Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Aug 22, 2011

As Christians, we have responsibilities on earth (family, work, school, society, etc…), but we must always remember where we ultimately belong (we are citizens of heaven)!

When Jesus Christ was on earth, He was fully man and fully God! This of course is a mystery, but it is truth. This is similar to the truth and mystery of God is One but exists in Three Persons. If Jesus Christ was fully man and fully God on earth, how was His growing up? God gives us a glimpse of ...read more

One With Christ ~ Christ Series

Contributed by Ava Ch on May 11, 2025

This sermon is part of a three-week Stewardship Series about the communion commitment of "one with Christ, one with each other, and one in ministry to all." Three strands of one binding together in one cord that cannot be broken as we commit ourselves to the kingdom of God.

Opening Illustration:?Many of us love receiving gifts—birthdays, holidays, anniversaries. But have you noticed that the most meaningful gifts are not the ones that fade or break but connect us to someone’s love? A letter. A family heirloom. A handmade card from a child. These are gifts that hold ...read more

When we think of the Christmas story, we often think of Christ, of Mary and Joseph, of the shepherds and the wise men. But this message is dedicated to the most overlooked character(s) of the Nativity (Angels) and to their message!

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 14, 2019

The nation of Israel was depicted as a vine planted by Jehovah (Isaiah 5:1–7). But the nation proved unfaithful and unfruitful, so the Lord Jesus now presented Himself as the true vine.

Christ Glorified In Us

Contributed by David Johnston on Sep 24, 2006

This message deals with Christ’s prayer in John 17 for His disciples sanctification and our need to live a sanctified life for Christ to be glorified in us.

Not much is said about the disciple’s conversions… that is… Some he saved, he said, “Go and sin no more… Or Thy sins be forgiven thee." Some say that weren’t saved until they got the Holy Ghost… (meaning Holy Ghost baptism and salvation are together as one work) Acts 19:1 And it came to pass, ...read more

The Christ

Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Mar 5, 2009

Why is the term ‘Christ’ associated with Jesus’ name? What does ‘Christ’ mean? That is the topic that we will be considering today.

We find that in the New Testament, Jesus is referred to as “Jesus Christ” one hundred and thirty-four times. For someone new to the Scriptures, since ‘Christ’ follows ‘Jesus’ so frequently, one might get the idea that ‘Christ‘ is Jesus’ surname or last name. However, there are eighty-six times in ...read more

The Christ Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 29, 2022

"Christ" was not Jesus' last name. It was a description of WHO He was. So what does it mean that Jesus is the Christ, and what difference can that make in our lives?

OPEN: St. John’s University is a private religious college in the state of New York, and sometime back someone apparently wrote some graffiti on one of the walls which said this: “Jesus said unto them: ‘Who do you say that I am?’ And they replied: ‘You are the eschatological manifestation of the ...read more
