Joy in the Word
That old book - the Bible? Joyful? Old stories about old people doing things in ancient foreign cultures - how can you find that joyful? What am I missing? How can anybody today expect to find JOY in a book that old? PS. It's not about the book!
What is the source of your Joy?
Acts 16:16-40
What is the difference between "That makes me happy," and "That gives me joy?" While our culture tells us about the right we have to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness," in Christ we find something far deeper, life-changing and everlasting. The Bible calls it joy. Shallow entertainment and superficial happiness are no substitute for joyous living in Christ.
Boasting in the Cross
Galatians 6:11-18
In the closing verses of this epistle, Paul warns the Galatians and denounces those who are preaching a false gospel as charlatans who only care about making “a good showing in the flesh.” His conscience is clear and his motives are pure, refusing to boast in anything but the cross of Christ.
the Gospel and Doing Good
Galatians 6:1-10
The gospel is all about truth, grace and having faith in Christ, but it is also about the practical realities of getting along with other people. Bear one another's burdens and do not grow weary in doing good, especially to your brothers and sisters in the Lord.
the Spirit and the Gospel
Galatians 5:13-26
Life is always a struggle. Accepting Christ is the beginning of a journey, not an arrival. When you accept Christ, there’s still a battle with the flesh. So, it’s important to walk in the Spirit rather than the flesh. And the fruit of doing that is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
Freedom and the Gospel
Galatians 5:1
For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.
Out of Darkness - LIGHT
How can some of you say there is no resurrection of the dead if Christ himself is proclaimed as raised from the dead? The last enemy to be defeated is death itself!
Assumptions
Join us this Palm Sunday for guest preacher Rev. Lynn Downing as he preaches from Matthew 21:1-13.
Is Jesus really the only way of salvation for the whole world?
Who Jesus Is. What Jesus Did. Yes, He is the ONLY way!
Weakness and the Gospel
Through the weakness of preachers and preaching, the Gospel is powerful to the conversion and transformation of sinners like us for His own glory.
Slavery and the Gospel
Human slavery is a grievous and tragic abuse, but there is yet a deeper and more tragic bondage - our slavery to sin. God in Christ has rescued us out of that bondage, so don't go back!
The Law and the Gospel
If the Law can't save you, then why do we have it? If it only stirs up our sin and condemns us, what good is it? It is the Guardian or Schoolmaster that points us to Christ!
The Curse and the Gospel
The human race is all under a curse, locked in bondage to sin, condemned by the Law. Is there no escape? Only in Christ who took our curse upon himself at the cross
Faith and the Gospel
Faith alone and in nothing else - that is the anchor of our hope. Beware lest you be tempted to accept a substitute, or to trust in anything else or anything less.
The Heart of the Gospel
In Christ alone and by faith alone is my salvation - not by anything I have done or achieved. I have died to self and my life is hidden in Christ.
The True Gospel
Paul vehemently defends the truth of the gospel against those who would add anything to it. In Christ we are free from the Law's demands; free to trust solely and utterly in his grace.
The Rest of the story
If there is a Heaven, there must also be a Hell and a great eternal chasm separates one from the other. You have been warned by Abraham, Moses, the Prophets and even the One who came back from the dead! Where will you spend eternity?
It’s Not My Gospel!
The Good News of Jesus Christ is NOT a man-made religion. Paul received it from Christ and passed it on to us.
All Things New
Christ is making all things new! We will receive NEW bodies, we will inhabit a NEW Heaven and Earth, there will be a NEW city, the heavenly Jerusalem, and God will dwell in our midst.
