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

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

Grounded In Christ Series

Contributed by Vic Folkert on Jun 9, 2020

Some miss the gate. Some lose their way, by false teaching, counterfeit spirituality, or not putting beliefs into practice. Some are grounded in Christ, and stand firm in the storms of life!

Healthy Disciples: GROUNDED IN CHRIST—Matthew 7:13-27 Read Matthew 7:13-14. This is troubling. We know that many people in the world are not interested in eternal life with Christ as Lord and King, and that troubles us. Jesus implies, however, that many who claim to be Christians might not be ...read more

The Cost

Contributed by Chad Garrison on Apr 27, 2009

Once we have received Christ as our Lord and Savior, everything changes! Not only are we washed clean, but have a true Calling to serve Him! Here we examine what Christ has asked us to take into account before jumping right into this calling.

The Cost: Have You Counted it? Luke 14:26-33 I want to thank Jordan for getting us started on series of messages every believer should take into consideration.

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Jul 29, 2019

Maybe you have heard many promises of blessings in Christ, but aren't experiencing them for yourself. Perhaps the next step is an act of faith to receive those blessings.

But today we go back to the first chapter of Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. And that’s a different kind of treat. If you ...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
