Sermons on Jesus Christ
Jesus the Nazarene, Lord of Salvation (Acts 2:14-36)
Under the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, Peter declared to the gathered crowds, and all the residents of Jerusalem, that the arrival of the Spirit portended the Messianic Age of salvation, and that they murdered God’s Messiah, Jesus the Nazarene. The Spirit continues to this day, testifying to the…
Fully Surrendered Faith (Genesis 22:1-24)
“God demands faith fully surrendered, willing to forfeit everything to trust and obey.” Dr. Jordan Neil Rogers (preaching on Genesis 22) Genesis chapter 22, a chapter of which you are all generally familiar, challenges our notions regarding faith, as God asks Abraham to offer up his very own son Isaac, as a sacrifice. Faith is often short-changed, not given its full due.…
Jesus’ Witnesses (Luke 24:44-53)
Luke brings his narrative of the life of Jesus to an end. His conclusion is unmistakable…everyone who has seen and perceived Jesus is His witness. Join us in this last sermon from Luke and walk with us to understand what it means to be one of Jesus’ witnesses.
All Stand Before the Sovereign King Who Knows Everything (Luke 22:54-71)
The Son of Man has all dominion, glory, and power. His is the eternal Kingdom so that all would serve him. Throughout the law and the prophets, we see that these things are only ascribed to the LORD, Yahweh, Jehovah. Jesus is God, and he sits on the throne with all dominion and glory over his…
Beholding the Glory of the Lord in Jesus (Luke 9:18-36)
A true confession of Jesus always goes through the cross and understands Jesus to be Lord and Christ (Anointed Savior). A confession of Jesus as Lord and Christ involves following Him as Lord and Christ. Since Christ’s mission went through a cross, so also will ours. As we turn away from our…
Being Satisfied in Christ (Luke 9:1-17)
In this passage, we see that Jesus grants his followers the power and authority to speak about Christ. For those who go forth in the name of Jesus, there is provision. When Christ is proclaimed, people are satisfied.
The Good News (Luke 4:14-30)
Freedom from Slavery (1 Kings 20:1-21)
In this story from 1 Kings, we see how God’s preposterous grace set the wicked King Ahab free from his far superior enemy, Ben-hadad. In this war, when King Ahab faces the utter and complete desolation at the hand of over 100,000 Syrian warriors, God comes near to Ahab and delivers him with the most unlikely people, 232 youth-in-training. We see a similar victory…
Salvation through Affliction (1 Kings 17:17-24)
In this passage we see the young son of the Sidonian widow die. Doubting God, she cries out in her anguish. But Elijah stands firm and points her to a sovereign God. Through the experience of losing her son, the widow finds that Yahweh is the God of life and He works salvation through our…
The Worship of Fools (Ecclesiastes 5:1-7)
God is a consuming fire and deserves to be worshiped with reverence and awe…but what does that mean? In Ecclesiastes 5:1-7 we see the worship of fools. Those who come before God and sing words they don’t mean and speak about God what they do not know. True worship of God is done when people worship from the heart, meaning the words they say before the King and…
