    Last Hours Of Jesus' Life - Free From Passivity

    Contributed by Joanne Chan on May 18, 2018
     | 5,564 views

    In this sermon, we look at how the people mocked Jesus as he walked toward the hill of Golgotha, and contrast that with his encounter with Simon from Cyrene to see what it really means to carry the cross for Jesus.

    Central theme: Jesus denied himself and took the punishment for us with total dedication. We should take up the cross and follow Jesus, which means denying our old self (our comfort, your desires) and live for God because God is leading us to an even better place. Opening: Think of a place ...read more

     | 11,724 views

    Jesus encountered many people on His way to Jerusalem for the sin of the world, in our study tonight we will see Him viewed as the coming King, but not from a godly perspective, but from the perspective of Jewish teaching about Messiah

    Read Luke 19:28-40… if you read chapter 18 and the 1st part of 19 you will get more of the ‘flavor’ of this passage. But let me set the stage (so to speak): v.28-40 detail Jesus’ continuing journey toward Jerusalem. These verses take place sometime after Jericho events such ...read more

     | 12,548 views

    The Red Sea that stood between the Israelites and deliverance was both real and frightening. But often just as real and just as frightening are the "Red Seas" we encounter in our Christian life.

    THE RED SEAS OF LIFE "By faith they passed through the Red Sea as by dry land, whereas the Egyptians, attempting to do so, were drowned." Hebrews 11:29 "When Moses and his people from Egypt’s land did flee" Their enemies behind them, and in front of them the sea, God raised the ...read more

     | 9,829 views

    The figurative storms that we encounter in life are very real in their consequences. When they come...and they will...the Christian is wise to utilize the four anchors that God has provided.

    FOUR ANCHORS THAT HOLD "Then, fearing lest we should run aground on the rocks, they dropped four anchors from the stern, and prayed for day to come." Acts 27:29 This frightening event occurred on Paul’s voyage to Rome to stand trial before Caesar Nero. There are several ...read more

    We stand in awe when we consider the great love God has for us. Surrounded by such love, we can triumph in every trial or crisis we encounter.

    GOD’S AWESOME LOVE FOR US “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8 NASB It is very difficult to select a text for a sermon that sets forth God’s love for every one of us because there are so many Scriptures from which to ...read more
