No Condemnation To Those Who Are In Christ

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Jan 30, 2022

The point here is that there is a debt that we owe because of our sin, and no matter how hard we try, we can't pay it. For us the amount is not zero. It is more than we can imagine. How can we escape condemnation? The answer is found in our text, Romans chapter eight.

Alba 1-30-2022 NO CONDEMNATION TO THOSE WHO ARE IN CHRIST Romans 8:1-11 In March 1992, a man living near Boston, Massachusetts received a bill for his unused credit card.

In the pew Bibles it is on page 66 of the New Testament section. And please stand for the ...read more

Promises For Those Who Trust PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 18, 2025

God intimately sees, hears, and cares for us in every trial, offering steadfast love, comfort, and deliverance to the brokenhearted and trusting.

Some of us walked in today with a smile that hides a storm. Bills on the table, biopsy on the calendar, battles in the soul. Others carry a quiet ache—an empty chair at dinner, a friendship gone cold, a door that never opened. If you feel overlooked, unheard, unseen—hear this: the God who flung ...read more

Swing The Sickle Series

The great and terrible day of the Lord. Are you afraid of God? Do you secretly harbour a fear of him?

Good Things Come To Those Who Wait

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 9, 2015

When we receive the bread and wine during Holy Communion, we are holding Christ’s very body and blood, which was nailed to the cross and poured out for our forgiveness. We have seen it with our own eyes and felt it with our own hands and on our tongues.

Have you ever heard of the old saying, “Good things come to those who wait”? If so, the story of Simeon, Anna and the baby Jesus in the temple in Lune 2:22-40 is a good example. The coming of Christ involved all manner of waiting on God. A young maiden, a dying man and an old widow all ...read more
