    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 26, 2018
     | 7,980 views

    Barabbas watched as Jesus was beaten with HIS beating, as Jesus took up HIS cross, and as Jesus was peirced with HIS nails. He got a special revelation of Jesus as his substitute!

    “ME? BARABBAS?” Mt. 27:15-17, 20-26 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: You really wonder about people’s common sense when you’ve read some of these instruction labels: 1. On a hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping. 2. On box of Cracker Jacks: You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside. ...read more

    Fished Out Of The Sea Series

    Contributed by Christopher Howitz on Oct 30, 2017
     | 5,374 views

    "Jesus’ authority as kingly Messiah rests not in spectacle or selling-out or cutting corners, but rests on His reliance on the Father and Jesus’ costly obedience to the Father even along the road to the cross."

    “The time has come,” Jesus said, “The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!” (1:15) That was Jesus’ great announcement at the beginning of his ministry in Galilee. And to the two pairs of brothers… “Come follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” ...read more

    Communion And Passover

    Contributed by Adam James on Oct 23, 2016
     | 6,391 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

    Forsaken?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 9, 2022
     | 1,228 views

    The psalm we sang today, the psalm He prayed on the cross as He gradually suffocated to death, begins with an apparent cry of despair: “God, why have you forsaken me?”

    Passion (Palm) Sunday In the four Gospels there are four slightly different accounts of the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus. St Mark’s is the briefest of them all. He records only one statement of Jesus. But what all four Evangelists agree on is this: Jesus died praying. He died as ...read more

    Jesus Faced Judgment In Front Of Pontius Pilate Series

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on Jul 24, 2024
     | 487 views

    Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and died on the cross at Golgotha. Pilate knew that Jesus was innocent yet he substituted the innocent man, Jesus, for the guilty robber and murderer, Barabbas.

    The prophet Isaiah wrote that the suffering servant would suffer judgment. In the previous sermonm, we saw how Jesus was silent when confronted by Pontius Pilate at his illegal trial. I don’t want to repeat what has been said, but suffice it to say Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and ...read more

    This story in Luke 8 reminds us that there is no case too hard for God. Jesus crossed the sea for one man, showing us the lengths God is willing to go to rescue the bound.

    Jesus was sentenced to death and later would bear His cross and and make the long walk to Golgotha and there be crucified with two other criminals who were beside Jesus and the Lord was in the middle.

    John 19:13-18-When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha. 14 And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your ...read more

    God has a plan for taking the monsters we face in the world and our personal lives. The SON OF MAN finds fulfillment in Jesus, who overcomes by the cross, resurrection, ascension, and return.

    TAMING THE MONSTERS—Daniel 7 ***When our son was about six, we asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up. His answer surprised us: He wanted to be monster-handler.
