    Nailed To The Cross Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Jul 10, 2025
     | 520 views

    In Colossians Paul is dealing with the rejection of philosophies and man's wisdom. He tells the church they are cheated if they listen to human wisdom while rejecting God's ways. They are missing having their sins Nailed to the Cross. It is the cross that makes the difference.

    Title: Nailed to the Cross Theme: To show how Jesus took our sins to the cross. Our trespasses are forgiven at the cross. Text: Colossians 2:6 – 15. Introduction In chapter 2 of Colossians, Paul begins with a warning to the Colossi church. He says he longs to be there in the flesh but is ...read more

    Three Nails

    According to Scripture (John 20:25) and Roman practices of the time, Christ was held to the Cross by three nails but I want to call this belief into question. Nor were the Jews, Romans, or Judas responsible for His death.

    THREE NAILS Lk. 23:32-34; Mt. 27:45-54 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. If you ever ask a preacher about his last sermon, he will give you the whole thing again! They usually think they did a good job.

    He Chose The Nails Series

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Mar 4, 2026
     | 73 views

    In the Passion story, the nails seem like a small detail. Just hardware. Just instruments. Just metal. But the nails of the cross were the HINGE OF HISTORY. They were the point where DIVINE LOVE MET HUMAN REBELLION. They were the moment where ETERNITY TOUCHED TIME.

    TAGLINE: The nails did not hold Jesus to the cross—His love did. But those nails still preach a gospel we dare not ignore.
