    A Resurrection Sunday message.

    Introduction Praise God! The tomb is empty. Jesus is alive! Just like some of the kids expected something to be inside the egg, the disciples expected the body of Jesus to still be in the tomb. Wouldn’t we? We understand the importance of the crucifixion, but do we fully understand how vital ...read more

    What Are Your Expectations Of The Messiah?

     | 7,040 views

    If John the Baptist had to make sure Jesus was the Messiah it may well have been because there were several examples upon which the expected messiah could be modelled. What are our expectations of the Messiah?

    When John heard in prison what the Messiah was doing, he sent word by his disciples and said to him, "Are you the one who is to come, or are we to wait for another?" Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John what you hear and see: the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, ...read more

    It probably surprises you to learn that a book like Revelation begins with the word blessed. How in the world can this prophetic book make us happy? Revelation makes Christ’s Church happy because it reminds us that our King is on His throne.

    “Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near. John, to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are ...read more
