    Jesus words just before and after his death have amazing significance! Seven statements from the cross and the first three after his resurrection make up this lesson.

    Have you heard of the seven last words of Christ on the cross? Some of you may be very familiar with this, others of you may wonder what I’m talking about.

    Just as God brought the Israelites into the Promised Land, He has called us out of the darkness of the world to live lives full of victory, crossing over the flooded streams of this life.

    “Action Pattern for a Crossover People,” Joshua 3:5-17 Introduction An old writer said that Faith and Reason may be compared to two travelers. Faith is like a man in full health, who can walk his twenty or thirty miles at a time without suffering. Reason is like a little child, who can only, with ...read more

    Jesus Christ The Only Begotten Son of God, was born of a virgin and came into this world for one purpose only, and that was to pay mans sin debt as He died there on the cruel cross of Calvary.

    Woman, Here Is Your Son

    based on 7 ratings
     | 8,532 views

    We have recorded for us seven of the sayings made by Jesus from the cross. This sermon seeks to describe what were are to gain/learn from Jesus providing for his mother.

    John, in specifically selecting the events that lead to belief, preserves for us three of the recorded sayings that Jesus made while suffering the unthinkable, the unimaginable on the cross. The Synoptic writers record four others. We would be in error to portray that we know for certain that ...read more

    We will consider maturity in terms of various aspects of our Christian lives (Jesus, Cross, The Word, Suffering, Eternity) and how we contrast these from immature and mature points of view.

    Introduction: The year of increase will happen as the church grows both qualitatively and quantitatively. The existing members are called to mature so that they can take care of the new members.

    The Real Reason For The Season

    Contributed by Carl Greene on Dec 31, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,978 views

    Surely it is good we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. But why did God send His only Son? What was the reason? It ultimately leads to the cross and forgiveness, and our salvation.

    We talked last week about “What if.” We looked at the Dickens Story “A Christmas Carol” and while acknowledging that “Christ” was not mentioned in the story, as Christians, we look for the message of Christ everywhere. And as such, we said that we might look at the “Spirits” of Christmas past, ...read more

    Having A Pit Bull Mentality Pt. 2

    Contributed by Ronnie Mcneill on Sep 29, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,405 views

    This sermon reassures the believer that we have our salvation because Jesus the Christ refused to come down from that old rugged cross because of His Pit Bull Mentality.

    Introduction: Pit bulls are some of the most vicious dogs that an owner can purchase. They are known by society for holding on relentlessly to their victim until dead. Once they grab hold, they are determined not to let go. They are focused with a made up mind not to release their prey. ...read more

     | 3,919 views

    Jesus had broken down the barriers between the diverse elements of the church. We have one faith, one Lord, and one baptism. From the cross flows the river of peace.

    Ephesians 2:11-22 “The Source of Peace” INTRODUCTION When we think of heaven, we conjure up many images. The Jews imagine a place of feasting and celebrating. Our Teutonic and Scandinavian ancestors couldn’t quite conceive of heaven being a party place, so they pictured a place of peace that ...read more

    The Curse: Why Jesus Died Series

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Apr 6, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,046 views

    We see in the Bible that the curse is why Jesus died. To remove the curse of sin and death. We will also see the cross where Jesus died and the Crown why Jesus lives.

    Intro: Paul’s letter to the Galatians is addressing what man seems always to do. Either add to or take away from God’s word. It began in the garden with Adam and Eve. Adam disregarded God’s word and Eve added to it. I’ve got to quote John Piper, “Satan is continuously at work tempting us to ...read more

     | 9,334 views

    Lent is a time for us to loosen our grip on the ways of the world and draw nearer to God’s grace. It is a time for us as Christians to take a journey through the wilderness to the cross.

    "Jesus did that to the extent of surrendering Himself to the Father’s will and dying on the cross for our salvation. You don’t get more other-centered than that."

    Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time 2016 Almost forty years ago, the movie Alien frightened a couple of generations of Americans with its notion that a monster could grow inside someone’s chest and then burst out to cause death and destruction.

    The Curse On Christ Series

     | 5,184 views

    Jesus, being made a curse for us means that by bearing God’s wrath for sinners on the cross, Christ took upon Himself the curse pronounced on those who violated the Law.

    October 19, 2013 The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Galatians Tom Lowe Chapter III.A.2.c: The Curse on Christ (3.13) Galatians 3.13 (KJV) 13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is everyone that hangeth on a ...read more

    Communion And Passover

    Contributed by Adam James on Oct 23, 2016
     | 6,392 views

    Every ritual of the Old Testament was completely fulfilled by Christ's finished work on the cross. There was significant meaning in the bread and the wine in the Passover meal, which Jesus reinterpreted with his new covenant.

    One of the great and exciting challenges we have as Christian readers of the Old Testament, is to find Jesus in every book of the Bible. All of the festivals and rituals prescribed in the Old Testament point directly to, and are completely fulfilled by the finished work of Christ on the cross. One ...read more

    Sermon shares feelings about Jesus, people thought he was crazy and I wonder of we are crazy enough to believe in His Incarnation, His Cross, His salvation, and The Resurrection.

    Are we Crazy Enough? Mark 3:21-22 1. Jesus’s popularity keeps growing 20Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered, so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat • He performs great miracles, like cleansing lepers, restoring withered hands • He also says some ...read more
