    A Second Chance For The Human Race

    Adam, son of God, failed in the Garden. Israel, son of God, rebelled in the wilderness. Jesus the Son of God, on behalf of us all, won the battle against temptation in the wilderness. Believers in Jesus are also called sons of God, so how must we live?

    A SECOND CHANCE FOR THE HUMAN RACE. Luke 4:1-13. Man was always going to get a second chance after the Fall of Adam. God made a promise concerning the seed of the woman (Genesis 3:15), and ‘that seed was Christ’ (cf. Galatians 3:16; Galatians 3:29). We see in the temptation of Jesus a new Adam ...read more

    Accepting resurrected Christ is more than finding a jackpot, that means when we find Christ, we found everything for life. There is No place for a word known as ‘good luck’ when Christ is with us (Phil.4:13). Christ changes our life on earth, everything becomes new (2 Cor.5:17).

    Easter Theme: NEW RACE WITH NEW RAYS Text: Mark 16:9-20 Greetings I wish you all Happy Resurrection Day of Christ. This sermon is covering the theme “New Race with New Rays’.

    Jesus’ rising promotes on external perspective to endure life’s trial. Culture cannot give us this perspective.

    He has risen. He has risen indeed. Over the whole season of Lent, we have been taking a fresh look at the Lenten scriptures through the lens of TV. The average American watches over 29 hours of TV and whether we wish to admit it or not, TV infects or affects our lives. From what we purchase to ...read more

    I love this church. It’s so great to have this kind of worship where our Hispanic and Anglo congregations can get together, pray, sing praises and study God’s Word together. I’ve preached for about 24 years now, and every couple of years or so, I’ve preached the type of sermon I’m going to preach ...read more

    In Hebrews 12:1–3. we see various aspects of the race, as they are compared to the faithful life in Christ. Christ calls us to 1) Race Freely (Hebrews 12:1), 2) Race Focused (Hebrews 12:2), and 3) Race to the Finish (Hebrews 12:3)

    In the ancient Isthmian games of Greece, a pedestal stood at the finish line, and on it hung a wreath—the winner’s prize. No one runs a race without some expectation of reward. The reward may be nothing more than a ribbon or a trophy or a wreath of leaves. It may be a prize worth a ...read more

    What gives us our identity is not color or culture. But “chosenness.” Christians are not the white race; they are the chosen race. Christians are not the black race; they are the chosen race.

    The Christian journey can be described as a "race." We choose the kind of race we run -- fun and games; obligatory; or the long-term run.

    1. Last week we “passed the baton” in regard to teaching people the word of God from generation to generation and person to person. 2. It made me think of the ancient Roman Games and how they were used as illustrations for the Christian life. 3. The Games in Rome were a big deal. Although much of ...read more
