God’s Iron Dome Of Grace
We see a lot about Israel in the news today. That tiny nation is surrounded by huge enemies who are determined to exterminate them. Will they succeed? What does the Bible show us about how God has dealt with the Jewish people in the past, what is He doing in the present, and does Israel have a future? Is there anything believers can learn from how God deals with Israel? Will God preserve Israel and will God preserve His people…
Carpe Diem #101
Romans 13:12-14 Carpe Diem, seize the day! That was the subject of last week’s sermon. Life is short, Jesus’ return is near, seize the day. So, what now? How do I seize the day? We will finish this 2 part sermon on how all believers can live in light of the return of Jesus Christ.
Carpe Diem
Romans 13:8-14 How much time do you have left on earth? A question no one wants to consider but one that everyone is called by God to consider. Why? Because as Paul wrote, “The night is nearly over; the day is almost here.” Romans 13:12a Carpe Diem, as we say. Seize the Day! How are you as a follower of Jesus seizing your days? How are we as a church doing the same? This Sunday, we will explore Romans 13:8-14 and hear from…

Public Display Of Affection
Romans 3:24-26 Holiness and sinfulness cannot coincide, just as light and darkness cannot. This presents a serious and eternal problem for all of mankind. God, who is the epitome of holy, cannot allow sin in His presence. Consequently, we as sinful people cannot exist with God in our depraved state. There is only one way for sin to be forever removed and God has said that it is only through the death of His righteous Son, Jesus Christ. The death of Jesus…
The Way, The Truth, The Life
Romans 3:21-26 In newly-released findings from Dr. George Barna and the Cultural Research Center’s inaugural American Worldview Inventory, it was found that a majority of people who describe themselves as Christian (52%) believe that a person can gain eternal salvation by “being or doing good.” That includes close to half of all adults associated with Pentecostal (46%), mainline Protestant (44%), and evangelical (41%) churches. As expected, a much larger share of Catholics (70%) embrace that point of view. Wow! Nearly half of people…
The Totality Of Depravity
Romans 3:9-18 “The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time.” Genesis 6:5 Wow, what a dismal assessment of the condition of man! It was 100% accurate though, because it was from the Creator of man, God Himself. Whew, good thing we’ve improved so much over the past several thousand years! NOT! Reality check: mankind is still wicked because mankind is…
Personal Holiness Matter
Romans 3:1-8 A common reason many unbelievers cite as a reason for disbelief in God is the failures of those who claim to be Christians. Their reasoning is “if they (Christians) don’t live what they believe, then it must not be true.” However, God says otherwise. Romans 3 tells us that we are all accountable for our own lives and responses to the truth of God, no matter how well someone else may live it themselves. Believers and unbelievers alike are responsible for…

Rest(oration) for the Weary
Rest(oration) for the WearyRomans 2:25-29 “Work as if it’s all up to you and pray as if it’s all up to God.” Have you ever heard this expression? Well, maybe there is some truth to this, but the only problem is we can work ourselves to death and miss the work God wants to do! The Jews are a prime example. They both worked and prayed and neither got them any closer to God. What about you? Are you working and…
The Harm of Hypocrisy
The Harm of HypocrisyRomans 2:17-24 “The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today is Christians who acknowledge Jesus with their lips and walk out the door and deny Him by their lifestyle. That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelievable.” Brennan Manning I am not sure how we would qualify such a statement, but I believe we can at least acknowledge its truthfulness in general. Hypocrites do damage to the cause of Christ. In a world of constant cameras…
Preparing For The Final
Romans 2:11-16 I imagine most of us remember our final exams in school. It could be the final to conclude a particular class, or it could be the final to graduate. Either way, finals are usually stressful! What finals accomplished though is they exposed how well we mastered the material. How well did we read, tune into the lectures, and complete the assignments? God says in His Word that a day is coming when all mankind will take a final…
