    Hosanna In The Midst Of A Pandemic

     | 10,030 views

    The world is in a locked down mode this Palm Sunday. Streets are empty and businesses are closed. We are told to stay home and if we must venture out, to avoid touching our face and to wear mask to avoid spreading the deadly Corona Virus.

    Palm Sunday “HOSANNA” IN THE MIDST OF A PANDEMIC Ezekiel Ette, Ph.D. (Matt 21 : 1 – 11) As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples, 2 saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her ...read more

    Christ Is Risen!

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Apr 1, 2021
     | 3,615 views

    Why don't people say "Christ is Risen" on Easter anymore? There is more concern about their Easter parties than on Jesus' resurrection. We cannot allow society to steal Easter from the church like it did with Christmas.

    Easter Sunday 2021 Christ is Risen! Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz (Romans 6:4) It was not that long ago. I remember joining my young family for Easter worship, and I heard people greeting each other in an unfamiliar way. I thought that on Easter, you would greet someone by saying "Happy ...read more

    Why Then The Law? Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Oct 27, 2018
     | 4,081 views

    Paul now shows the inferiority of the covenant of law-first in regard to 1) Its Purpose (Galatians 3:19a), then in regard to 2) Its Mediator (Galatians 3:19b-20), and finally in regard to 3) Its Accomplishment (Galatians 3:21-22)

    On October 31, 1517, a young Augustinian Monk, schooled in the law, named Martin Luther, posted 95 Theses of concern to the church door in Wittenberg Germany. This act triggered the Reformation, as they were immediately translated and distributed across Germany in a matter of weeks. The Protestant ...read more

    Living A Humbled Life (Palm Sunday) Version 2

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 22, 2021
     | 2,632 views

    When we become Christians, hopefully, we come to the realization of our own vanity when we realize how the world really does not revolve around us! The day will come when every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.

    LIVING A HUMBLED LIFE (Palm Sunday 2020) Text: Philippians 2:1-11 Philippians 2:5-11 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, (6) who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, (7) but emptied himself, by taking the ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,112 views

    Jesus said the stones would cry out if His disciples didn't praise Him. We’re looking at why praise had to rise, what kind of praise they offered, the opposition to His praise, and how all this effects us.

    MUST THE STONES CRY OUT? Lk. 19:35-40 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Coming Up Short 1. A robber went into a convenience store. He picked up a pack of gum and approached the cashier. He handed the gum & a $20 bill to the cashier. The cashier opened the cash register & turned to scan the gum. As ...read more

     | 7,037 views

    On Palm Sunday Jesus received a warrior’s welcome into Jerusalem, but Jesus was not that kind of Messiah. Do we worship Jesus as He really is, or as we want him to be?

    Do we worship Jesus as he really is? Or do we worship Jesus as we want him to be? It’s a simple multiple choice question – A or B! Do you want to go 50/50? I’m not going to ask for a show of hands. I wonder what mode of transport you would select for a King. A donkey wouldn’t be top of my list, ...read more
