    God's Final Word To Sin And Death

    The last word Jesus spoke from the cross, as John records it in his Gospel, was the word: "Tetelestai", "It is finished." At the time of his death, the place where he spoke that word was not a pretty sight. But through the centuries the beauty and power

    It was not a pretty sight. Made of roughly hewn wood and splattered with human blood after having served its gory purpose, the cross was anything but beautiful. It symbolized worldly secular power brutishly exercised over any perceived foreign evil that might threaten Rome. It was a place of ...read more

    We will look at one of the greatest passages on our Lord Jesus Christ. We will examine the great example of Jesus Christ and what he did to go from the Majesty of God to a criminal’s death on the cross.

    Introduction: I recently read a great Book about a man by the name of Marshal Taylor. Marshal Taylor lived in the USA in the late 1800’s and he was born to parents that were slaves. Marshal Taylor experienced freedom and he began to know a taste of freedom that his parents never knew. He had the ...read more

    Jesus ate with sinners. We have likewise been called to dine with derelicts!

    Dining With Derelicts, Luke 15:1-3, 11b-32 Scripture Now the tax collectors and “sinners” were all gathering around to hear him. But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them." Then Jesus told them this parable: Jesus ...read more

    Why wasn't Moses allowed into the Promised Land? The short answer is: he sinned, but somehow that doesn't seem quite fair. He was one of the greatest and meekest men in Scripture. Is there something more about God's decision that we need to know?

    I love to read and a few weeks ago I ran across a word quiz from a non-Christian publication that – at first – angered me. I thought they were making fun of Christianity. But once I read the answer to the quiz I realized not only were they NOT doing that, but in fact someone had ...read more

    Many things conspire to keep people separate, even in the church. Only God can connect us, and it is the cross that binds us. Are we living out that reality, or have we let separations disconnect us?

    When he says it, it feels both enraging and endearing. When he pronounces it, it sounds like irritation, but it also sounds like invitation. It is both attracting and detracting, both including and excluding. I am referring to those moments in the old TV show, when Felix Unger, the neat freak half ...read more

    If Jesus had refused to suffer the shame and reproach of the Cross, and if the Crucifixion had never taken place, then our sins could not be forgiven … remitted. As a matter of fact, there wouldn’t be a gospel, for the gospel stands on the foundation of t

    Crossing yourself may seem a bit weird to Christians who don't do it- a strange ancient (perhaps slightly superstitious) ritual. But at the heart of it are two great biblical truths - perhaps the two greatest truthes of all.

    Don’t you hate empty promiese. God gave us promises of an empty cross, empty tomb, and empty clothes as a reminder that Jesus rose from the grave.

    Empty Promises Luke 24:1-7 Reading: Matthew 28:1-8 Intro: Don’t you hate empty promises? The world often makes promises and then does not keep them. The promise of happiness if you buy a certain product. The promise of an Insurance salesman. God has never broken even one of His promises to ...read more

    Pentecost 7: The condition of humanity is depravity - unrighteousness before God. Even though this is grievous to God, He nevertheless calls us to repentance through his Word and the Cross.

    Yesterday Sofi and I watched an old Joan Crawford movie on TV. The movie was named Mildred Pierce. It tells the story of a woman who wanted to give her two girls everything that she never had.

    Many Christians balk at the words "He descended into hell" and wonder if this is really taught in Scripture. I’m attempting to clarify what occurred between the cross and the empty tomb.

    People wanted to see Jesus & Lazarus. They wanted hope and assurance beyond the grave and Jesus was the answer...so he was lifted up on the cross. He is still the answer today.

    Self-denial and spiritual discipline are not popular topics in today’s culture. But a Christianity without a cross is not Christianity at all. This sermon launches a fifty day focus on spiritual disciplines.

    The disciples who followed Jesus in the day of his flesh had some wonderful advantages. However, when Jesus died on the cross every shred of hope they had was gone.

    Mark 16:9-11 9 Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils. 10 And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept. 11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen ...read more
