    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

    Jesus came to conquer and disarm Satan. Mark 1 is about "authority". The minisrty of Jesus actively engages and defeats satan and his demons. The ultimate defeat was the cross and resurrection.

    In Jesus Holy Name February 1, 2009 Epiphany IV Redeemer Mark 1:21-28 “The Cosmic Battle for Authority” There is an ongoing cosmic battle happening in the world around us as Satan seeks to possess and destroy the lives and souls of men, ...read more

    Our words are very powerful; with them we can bless or cruse. Through the word of men the process of Christ death begun, and of course He willingly endured the cross!

    Verbal Bloodshed Matthew 26:59-61 9 Now the chief priests, the elders, and all the council sought false testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, 60 but found none. Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none. But at last two false witnesses came forward ...read more

    Part VI in the series - 24. This is a first person narrative account from the perspective of the penitent thief on the cross. The preaching idea: Only by the innocence of Christ are the guilty set free.

    Introduction… My prayer is that over the past six weeks that those of you who have been present for this series of sermons have been moved by the stories that we have experienced.

    Leaving no child behind means that we parents set aside our own pleasures, that we learn to advocate for our children, and that we cross cultures with our resources.

    It was every parent’s worst nightmare. My son, my own flesh and blood, standing in front of me, and announcing that he was taking lessons in ... skydiving! Skydiving!

    Like with the Israelites God wants to take us out of the world and into the land He has for us. To recieve our inheritance we must "cross the Jordan and dwell in the land."

    Father, Forgive Them

    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,016 views

    Jesus’ first cry on the cross ushered in His ministry of intercession for the world. He has not ceased to intercede for us. Man’s greatest need is the forgiveness of our sin.

    Jesus prayed, "Father, forgive them..." (Luke 23:34). This was the first recorded cry of Jesus on the cross. • It sums up the reason He was there. It encapsulates the meaning of the cross. • He was asking God to give men what they needed most – forgiveness of their sin. • Jesus is going to pay ...read more

    Myths Of Salvation

    Contributed by Tim Hinrichs on Jan 31, 2013
     | 6,790 views

    There are many myths Christians believe about how to be saved. As we look into the Scripture we see these myths revealed as false and the only way to salvation through the cross of Christ.

    What is a myth? A story about someone or something that some claim to be true but is usually a fable. In Minnesota we have the stories of Paul Bunyan and Babe the blue ox. There is the belief in Poland that if you sit on a cold stone surface you will get sick and in America, many believe that if ...read more

    Christianity is the Good News that we can be saved, not by trying harder and depending on ourselves or our own promises, but in trusting God's power to save through the cross and the blood and the resurrection.
