3 Satanic Lies & the Good News That Sets Us Free
While our sanctuary is being renovated, the recording quality will be different. 3 Satanic Lies: God is against you. The good news: If you are in Christ, God is for you (Rom 8:31-32) There are accusations against you, and you can say nothing in your defense. The good news: If you are in Christ, the One who could accuse you is the One who died for you. (Rom 8:33-34) There are plenty of things that can separate you from God’s…
Don’t Drift Away from the Gospel! – Hebrews 2:1-4
While our sanctuary is being renovated, the recording quality will be different. 1) An urgent warning to not drift away from the gospel (Hebrews 2:1) Drifting away from the gospel is what naturally happens if we are not focused on Jesus and what He has taught us. 2) An urgent reason to not drift away from the gospel (Hebrews 2:2-3) The urgent reason to not drift away from the gospel is judgment, and the fact that we have been offered an escape…
What Does Jesus’ Resurrection Have to Do With My Resurrection? – Easter Sunday Sermon – Romans 8:9-11
1) The promises of the gospel belong to those who believe the gospel (Romans 8:9) For believers in the resurrected Jesus: 2) Death is the start of life (Romans 8:10) 3) The Holy Spirit guarantees your resurrection (Romans 8:11) You may have heard it said that the Holy Spirit is like the engagement ring that seals us when we are saved. But not only is the Holy Spirit like the engagement ring, He is also like the wedding ring that…
Jesus Appeared to Destroy the Works of the Devil
Jesus explained in Luke 6:43-45, “For no good tree bears bad fruit, nor again does a bad tree bear good fruit, for each tree is known by its own fruit. For figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor are grapes picked from a bramble bush. The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.” Christ explains—don’t…
Don’t Forget Who You Belong To – 1 John 2:12-14
When your gas tank is filed up with gospel truth, you will have the fuel to follow Jesus! In 1 John 2:12-14 we see three truths about our identity in Christ that remind us who we belong to. 1) Our New Identity: Forgiven Children (vv. 2:12a, 13c) 2) Our New Identity: We Know Christ (vv. 2:13a, 14a) 3) Our New Identity: Overcomers (vv. 2:13b, 14b)
Building a Gospel Culture in 2019 – Galatians 2:11-14
Turn your volume all the way up! We apologize for the audio issues; we are working on getting this resolved very soon. We want to continue to build a gospel culture in our church. In other words, a church professing the gospel should have a church culture that encourages reflecting the gospel in the way we treat each other. We will see: 1) To build a gospel culture in 2019, we must have correct “Gospel Doctrine” (Galatians 2:15-16, 21) 2)…
Christ (#3 of 5 in the “Good News” Sermon Series)
We see 3 main truths about the good news, the gospel, in Romans 3:21-26. Salvation is a gift, not something we earn. (3:21-24) Salvation comes only through Christ. (3:24-25) Through His Paying the Price for Us (Redemption) Through His Wrath-Absorbing (Propitiation) Salvation in Christ shows God’s justice and love (3:25b-26)
People (#2 of 5 in the “Good News” Sermon Series)
As it relates to the gospel, there are two main truths about people that we see in the Bible: We are made in God’s image (Genesis 1:26-27 with Genesis 9:6, James 3:9, Romans 8:29). We are sinners and our sin separates us from God (Genesis 3:8-10, Romans 6:23, Romand 3:10-22, Ephesians 2:1-5). Praise God that in each of these 4 sections of verses that talk about the seriousness of our sin before God, we see the hope of the gospel…
God (#1 of 5 in the “Good News” Sermon Series)
In Romans 1-4 we see the basics of the gospel, which answer basic questions about how to have a relationship with God; in other words, how to be “saved.” Who made us, and to whom are we accountable? (God) What is our problem? In other words, are we in trouble and why? (People) What is God’s solution to that problem? How has he acted to save us from it? (Christ) How do I—myself, right here, right now—how do I come…
