    James Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 9, 2022

    Even after more than two years of miracles, James is a skeptic. It would, after all, be rather hard to swallow the idea that the brother you had grown up with was the Son of God.

    Jesus came from a big family. Matthew 13:55-56 names Jesus' brothers: James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas and mentions sisters (plural), so He had at least six siblings. James is consistently named first when Jesus' brothers are listed, which in his day likely meant that he was the eldest of ...read more

    Being saved is not the end of the process. Being pleasing to god requires us to pass through the gate of salvation... and then go further. This sermon discussed the other gates we must pass through.

    Going on… A little further. Matthew 26:36-45 This morning I want to speak to you about something very important… going deeper in your spiritual life. As always our example is Jesus. He went a little further than the old law required. "You have heard it said, but I say..." The requirements ...read more

    There is only one saving gospel, the gospel of grace by faith in Jesus Christ alone. This is the only gospel that is of divine origin. It is a gospel of the grace of Christ offered as a free gift. Man can not gain God’s salvation

     | 6,407 views

    Today as we look at Matthew 3:16-17, we will find that these verses describe Jesus Christ as a “chip off the old block” and these two small verses have much to say to us about Jesus Christ.

    A CHIP OFF THE OLD BLOCK MATTHEW 3:16-17 INTRODUCTION… 3:16s Thus Far (p) We have been on a journey since July as we have been looking at various 3:16s in the Bible: Exodus 3:13-17 shared with us the Name of God and that we can trust Him.

    Have you ever wished that someone had given you encouragement when you really needed it? A few words of encouragement can really make our day brighter. We see an example of this in the reading from 2 Thessalonians 1:1-4,11-12.
