To Hell And Back

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 6, 2021

When Jesus cries out, "My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me!" He admits he has been forsaken by the one Person we expected to be his supporter to the end. But God cast his vote with the rest and says, guilty.

One of the greatest paradoxes of history is the story of the young English sailor by the name of Noble.

Three Hours In Hell

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 6, 2021

People die all the time just to advance our knowledge.

Good Friday

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 8, 2021

Jesus is identified with the lamb, for they die without a fight. They meekly go to their death without attacking or resisting. Jesus laid down His life voluntarily, and He did not, as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, snarl and rip and tear at His crucifiers.

Contributed by Ken Sauer on Mar 29, 2021

A sermon for Good Friday.

“God’s Power Found in the Cross” Matthew 27:27-56 The cheering crowds from Palm Sunday are gone. Now Jesus is alone, nailed to a cross, dying. The robbers crucified with Jesus cruelly mock Him.

The End Of The Beginning Vs The Beginning Of The End.

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Apr 2, 2021

There Was Darkness Over All The Land

Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 3, 2021

The rework of the Easter 2020 message, which was not delivered. Jesus was God in the darkness as He hung on the cross, and He is God in the darkness of these evil days.

“From the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, ‘Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?’ that is, ‘My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?’ And some of the bystanders, hearing it, said, ‘This man is calling ...read more

The Storm Before The Calm

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Apr 4, 2021

The storm before the calm. Normally we hear this said the other way around. Though there are times when there is the calm before the storm, in the case of Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection, the storm came before the calm.

Three Nails

Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 14, 2019

According to Scripture (John 20:25) and Roman practices of the time, Christ was held to the Cross by three nails but I want to call this belief into question. Nor were the Jews, Romans, or Judas responsible for His death.

THREE NAILS Lk. 23:32-34; Mt. 27:45-54 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. If you ever ask a preacher about his last sermon, he will give you the whole thing again! They usually think they did a good job.

Last week we looked at some events leading up to the crucifixion that had to do with brokenness. We looked at the broken seal on the jar of perfume, the broken protocol in Jesus' arrest and trial, and the broken hearts. What else was broken?

The Tearing Of The Veil

Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 26, 2019

At the very instant Jesus died, the massive veil before the Holy of Holies was suddenly torn in half from top to bottom.The sound of the veil tearing must have been deafening. Imagine the priests hearing it, feeling the earthquake, etc. What could it mean?
