    God's Forgiveness

    Contributed by Tony Foeller on Sep 4, 2001
    based on 36 ratings
     | 7,006 views

    In this message we look at why God forgives, why man needs forgiveness, what God’s forgiveness is, and how one can experience God’s forgiveness.

    God’s Forgiveness Ephesians 1:3-8 What is forgiveness? It is, quite literally, the setting aside of a debt by the one to which the debt is owed. When we talk about forgiveness in this light, are we to understand that it is possible for us to “pay” God for our forgiveness? Of course not. But ...read more

    During Memorial Day weekend, we celebrate the sacrifices of those who died that we might live in freedom and in peace. While remembering their accomplishments, we must also ask ourselves where is God in the history and human events?

    I Chronicles 29:10-20 “God in the Middle of Human Events” INTRODUCTION People often comment that they see God in numerous places in nature like a beach sunset, on a mountain top panorama, and the gently flowing water of a forest stream. It is more difficult for us to see God in history. Not ...read more

     | 3,723 views

    Sermon emphasizes that the claims of Jesus are clear, but people feign ignorance because they want to be ignorant. Having identified Jesus as the Christ--Savior--the question of who we are is explored. Who are we without Christ? Who are we with Christ?

    WHO IS CHRIST AND WHO ARE YOU? Scripture Reading: John 10:22-30 Jesus is the Christ--the Savior of our souls. We are the saved ones--safe only with God. Several questions arise from this assertion. Why do people not accept Jesus for who he is? Who are we apart from God? Who are we with God? ...read more

    Focus Passage: Mark 12:41-44 Supplemental Passage: If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

    Palm Sunday welcome of the king and an alternative lifestyle is chosen, which is very different from the world’s norm of authority and power.

    John 12:12-17 “Welcoming the Alternative” INTRODUCTION Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem has always been called a “triumphal entry.” In many ways it appears to be a comical imitation of a Roman parade. We can see this first Palm Sunday event similar to an army ...read more
