Sep 22, 2019When God Is SilentSeries: No SeriesThere are moments and times in our lives when it seems as if God is silent, when He is not there. We become afraid, angry, or our faith begins to wane. Yet, we see in John 11 that God has a purpose in His silence. We need to focus on walking in faith even when circumstances or feelings don’t support the walk. John 11; Psalms 10:1, 22:1, 42: 1-3, 43:2; Job 23: 8-9 (NIV)

- Aug 25, 2019What is a Worldview?
Aug 25, 2019What is a Worldview?By: Bro. Matt KellerSeries: No SeriesAs Christians, we need to develop our worldview based on the Bible. Matt inspires us to do so with 8 questions from James Sire: 1. What is Prime Reality? (What is really real?) 2. What is the nature of the world around us? 3. What is a human being? 4. What happens to a person at death? 5. How is it possible to know anything? 6. How do we know right and wrong? 7. What is the meaning of human history? 8. What personal or group commitments are consistent with this worldview? He helps us answer the first three questions and encourages us to seek the answers to the other questions in God’s Word. Romans 12: 1-2; Matthew 22: 37; Ephesians 3: 16-19 (HCSB) Isaiah 43: 10-11; Romans 8: 18-20a (ESV)
- Aug 18, 2019Sabbath Controversy
Aug 18, 2019Sabbath ControversySeries: Jesus As LordJesus and His disciples broke the law. The law broken was not, however, the written law but the oral law prescribed by the sages. Jesus has authority not only over the law, but He has authority to interpret the law. Matthew 12: 1-8; Hebrews 9: 15-23; Matthew 27: 50-51, 22: 29, 23: 1-8, 5: 6-7 (NKJV)
- Aug 11, 2019Authority Over the Sabbath
Aug 11, 2019Authority Over the SabbathSeries: Jesus As LordThe Sabbath is the heart of Judaism. It is the only day of creation given a name. There are thousands of Oral Laws governing this day, many more than what are in Scripture. Jesus showed His authority over the Sabbath by healing the man at Bethesda The Pharisees were livid because, although Jesus broke no Scriptural laws, He did break their oral laws. In a similar fashion, Martin Luther led the Great Reformation after studying the Bible and realizing that many of the “laws” of the Catholic Church were not found in Scripture and were in fact just traditions. We are saved by grace through faith and nothing else! Praise God! John 5: 1-47; 1 Corinthians 1: 17-18; 1 Corinthians 15” 1, 3-4; John 6:29 (NKJV)

Are they scriptural or are they just church and/or family traditions? Luke 5: 33-39 (NKJV)

Jul 21, 2019Is God’s Word Enough? (Aaron Coffey)Series: No Series“What if we take away the cool music and the cushioned chairs? What if the screens are gone and the stage is no longer decorated?

Would his Word still be enough for his people to come together?” David Platt, Radical: Taking Back Your Faith from the American Dream In many churches today, there is a lack of preaching the true gospel.

- Jul 14, 2019Jesus Has Authority Over Sinners
Jul 14, 2019Jesus Has Authority Over SinnersSeries: Jesus As LordAt this time, there was a lot of tension among the religious rulers of the day. They had seen Jesus cast out demons and heal a leper. Then, they see Him tell a lame man his sins have been forgiven and then tell him to get up and walk. Now He calls a tax collector to be one of his disciples and then goes to eat with a house full of tax collectors and other “undesirables”. The tension comes about because Jesus’ actions are forcing them to make a decision about Him that contradicts all their traditions and (oral) laws. Luke 5: 27-31; Luke 18: 10-14; Matthew 9:13, Mark 2: 16 (NKJV)

- Jun 23, 2019Jesus Heals A Leper
Jun 23, 2019Jesus Heals A LeperSeries: Jesus As LordThe healing of the leper is important for several reasons. The Bible outlined in Leviticus 13 the law concerning people with leprosy. Leviticus 14 tells us the ritual for cleansing a healed leper. But, until Luke 5: 12, no Jewish leper had ever been healed. Give a listen as Bro. Mike explains the significance of this healing and how it further gives evidence of Jesus as the Messiah and Son of God. Luke 5: 12-16 (NKJV) Parallel verses: Matthew 8: 1-4; Mark 1: 40-45
