    "Jesus did that to the extent of surrendering Himself to the Father’s will and dying on the cross for our salvation. You don’t get more other-centered than that."

    Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time 2016 Almost forty years ago, the movie Alien frightened a couple of generations of Americans with its notion that a monster could grow inside someone’s chest and then burst out to cause death and destruction. But that notion was not new. Jesus ben Sira, ...read more

    Saved And Ya Know It!

    What does it means to be saved? The Bible says whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. What does that mean? What did the death of Jesus on the cross really accomplish for us?

    As we prepare to receive communion and consider what the death of Jesus accomplished for all who trust in Him, I thought it would be good for us to talk about what it means to be saved. The Bible says whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. But what does that mean? What did the death ...read more

    "Jesus’ authority as kingly Messiah rests not in spectacle or selling-out or cutting corners, but rests on His reliance on the Father and Jesus’ costly obedience to the Father even along the road to the cross."

    “The time has come,” Jesus said, “The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!” (1:15) That was Jesus’ great announcement at the beginning of his ministry in Galilee. And to the two pairs of brothers… “Come follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” ...read more

    Paul writes to the church and to us that we can be content and happy and thankful, even in the hard times in our lives. Jesus models this thankfulness even when death on a cross is eminent.

    Giving Thanks, Even In The Hard Times Philippians 4: 10-13 Intro: The day before Thanksgiving an elderly man in Phoenix called his son in New York and said to him, "I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing; 45 years of misery is enough.

    Jesus Faced Judgment In Front Of Pontius Pilate Series

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on Jul 24, 2024
     | 466 views

    Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and died on the cross at Golgotha. Pilate knew that Jesus was innocent yet he substituted the innocent man, Jesus, for the guilty robber and murderer, Barabbas.

    The prophet Isaiah wrote that the suffering servant would suffer judgment. In the previous sermonm, we saw how Jesus was silent when confronted by Pontius Pilate at his illegal trial. I don’t want to repeat what has been said, but suffice it to say Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and ...read more

    Forsaken?

     | 1,204 views

    The psalm we sang today, the psalm He prayed on the cross as He gradually suffocated to death, begins with an apparent cry of despair: “God, why have you forsaken me?”

    Passion (Palm) Sunday In the four Gospels there are four slightly different accounts of the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus. St Mark’s is the briefest of them all. He records only one statement of Jesus. But what all four Evangelists agree on is this: Jesus died praying. He died as ...read more

    Jude was a remarkable man. He grew up with Jesus as His brother and did not believe until the cross. His letter is very special and we are going to look at every verse of it. I think we will be thrilled at what this book contains for us. Let us begin and dig the treasures.
