Seeing And Believing

Contributed by Craig Condon on Oct 2, 2015

Some people refuse to believe that Jesus rose from the dead because they have not seen him with their own eyes. They want concrete proof. On the other hand, all of us know that Jesus rose from the dead because we believe it in faith.

Good morning boys and girls! Has anyone told you something that was so amazing that you could not believe it? Sometimes people like to tell us things that we can’t believe. For example, some people might have told you that there is no such thing as the Easter Bunny of Santa Claus. Have ...read more

Stony The Road We Trod:

Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Apr 12, 2022

Jesus’ “going up” to Jerusalem is a public event, interpreted by Luke as a royal entry.

It is that “slash” day again—as in Palm/Passion Sunday—as in trying to capture two seemingly distinct moods and experiences in one act of worship. It is almost impossible to do, it seems. If we lean toward the Palm Sunday experience and emphasize the exuberance of the triumphal entry into ...read more

Easter 2016: Empty Promises

Contributed by Scott Bayles on Dec 22, 2020

On the first Easter Sunday, instead of promises full of emptiness, God gave us emptiness that is full of promise. There are at least three of them—an empty cross, empty clothes, and an empty cave. It is the very fact that each of these is empty that assures us that God’s promises are not.

EASTER: EMPTY PROMISES Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 3/27/2016 I just want to take a moment to thank everyone for choosing to spend Easter morning with us here at the Grove. Whether you’ve been coming to the Grove all your life, or this is your first time visiting, or you ...read more

Humiliated Redemption Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Mar 5, 2021

Stripping Jesus naked and gambling over his clothes is business as usual for the Roman soldiers. However, because the humiliation of Jesus is ordained by God for our redemption, we cannot treat the nakedness of our crucified Jesus in a business as usual fashion.

Message John 19:23-24 Why Are You Naked? Humiliated Redemption During the crucifixion of Jesus there is a situation which arises that adds to the humiliation that Jesus is experiencing. John 19:23-24 gives us the most comprehensive description. 23 When the soldiers crucified Jesus, they took his ...read more

In Whom All Things Are To Be Reconciled To God Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 12, 2018

Paul puts forgiveness of sin right alongside the blood of His Cross. God can forgive because the penalty has already been paid. Jesus paid that penalty through the blood of His Cross; therefore a righteous God can forgive you.

Last Hours Of Jesus' Life - Free From Passivity

Contributed by Joanne Chan on May 18, 2018

In this sermon, we look at how the people mocked Jesus as he walked toward the hill of Golgotha, and contrast that with his encounter with Simon from Cyrene to see what it really means to carry the cross for Jesus.

Central theme: Jesus denied himself and took the punishment for us with total dedication. We should take up the cross and follow Jesus, which means denying our old self (our comfort, your desires) and live for God because God is leading us to an even better place. Opening: Think of a place ...read more

Jesus - The Way,the Truth, And The Life

Contributed by Gbemisola Fafowora on Jun 22, 2018

This verse was written on the wall in my room. I did not know where it was in the Bible and after reading it , the Holy Spirit spoke and said to me open John 14:6, and told me to take it to Nations that He was the way, the truth and the life.

John 14: 1 - 6 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, would have told you.
