Under The Law Or Under Christ? (Romans 7:1-6)

Contributed by Barnabas Park on Nov 19, 2025

While the law reveals God’s holiness and exposes our sin, it cannot save us—it brings condemnation. Through Jesus’ death and resurrection, we are freed from the law’s condemnation and now live under grace, bearing fruit through the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Romans 7:1-6 1. Do you not know, brothers—for I am speaking to those who know the law—that the law has authority over a person only as long as he lives? 2. For a married woman is bound by law to her husband while he lives; but if her husband dies, she is released from the law of her husband. 3. ...read more

We Praise The Name Of Yahweh (Psalm 135) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 27, 2025

A sermon I wrote, while wrestling with what Michael Heiser teaches in The Unseem Realm about the Name of Yahweh being Jesus.

Today, we continue our very sporadic and haphazard study of the psalms, by turning to Psalm 135. This is a beautiful psalm-- it's the type of psalm that lends itself to being used as an opener for Sunday morning worship. I hope today that you'll leave differently, in two ways. The first, ...read more

There Is Now No Condemnation For Those Who Are In Christ Jesus.

Contributed by Barnabas Park on Jan 23, 2026

Many Christians live their daily lives believing in forgiveness but still feeling condemned in their hearts. In Romans 8:1–4, Paul declares a truth so powerful that it frees believers not only from sin’s penalty, but also from the burden of living under constant guilt.

“Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” Romans 8:1–4 1 There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and death. 3 For God has done what the ...read more

God's Servants: Channels Of Golden Oil (Zechariah 4:1-14) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 6, 2026

Most of what God does in the world, He does through his Spirit-empowered people, who are channels for his grace. A very high view of ministry; a very high calling.

Today, we have the privilege of entering into perhaps the most mysterious of all of Zechariah's visions. It's a passage where I feel like God opened it up to me in stages, and at each stage, I felt these bursts of pleasure and happiness. This is also a passage with rich symbolism-- but ...read more
