Paul communicated an important message to the church at Colossi. He addressed them as saints and faithful brethren. They were believers. They were saved. They were disciples of Christ.

Paul deeply cared about the new believers in Thessalonica. Timothy had reported on how vibrancy of their faith and the difficulty of their persecution.

The church family in Thessalonica was vibrant and full of faith. They had spread the message of the Gospel far and wide and because of it had experienced persecution. To help fortify them, Paul wrote a letter to give them divine perspective about their new lives in Christ as well as what was to be expected at the rapture and with the Day of the Lor…

David often faced seasons of affliction from his enemies. In these times he was very aware of his desperate need of God’s deliverance. What is amazing about many of the Psalms, including this one, is that before he was delivered, David began to rejoice in His God. He also encouraged others saints to look away from their affliction and to God and re…

The Apostles were sent ones who had witnessed Christ’s ministry from His baptism through His ascension back to heaven. It seems that Paul witnessed the life and ministry of Christ as a young unbeliever, but was especially moved by the martyring of Stephen (Acts 7:58) Paul, whose name was still Saul at that time, rejected Christ and persecuted His c…

Let’s be equipped to communicate the significance of the resurrection with those that we know. This past Sunday, we learned that the resurrections means that we can have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and that He has a purpose for our lives — to go and tell others. We also learned that as believers we are risen with Him. Because of this …

When we place faith in Jesus Christ for the gift of salvation, we identify with Him in His death, burial and resurrection. Because we are risen with Him, we have a new outlook and goal in life. Paul challenges the Colossian believer to accept these new goals. May we do the same! Thanks for joining us for this episode and please take a moment to sub…

Mary Magdalene was a woman who had experienced the radical difference that Jesus could make in a life. She had been in the grip of seven devils and Christ set her free. She followed Jesus faithfully and served Him with all her heart. Yet when He died on the cross, her hopes were dashed like the rest of His followers. Let’s consider the the details …

When Jesus was put on trial by the religious elites in Jerusalem before the Roman government, many of His followers began to fear for their lives. Peter denied Christ while warming his hands by the fire outside of the judgement hall. The disciples scattered and hid. If we are honest, we probably would have done the same. However, there were some in…

We are awaiting the soon coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Maranatha! Even so come Lord Jesus!

We do not have to be uncertain, but we can be confident because the Word of God give us understanding.…

Palm Sunday is the day we celebrate Jesus formally presenting Himself in Jerusalem as the Messiah. While they wanted and expected a conquering King, He came to be a suffering Servant. While it began with a rejoicing crowd, it ended with a rejecting crowd and His crucifixion. Jesus had specifically explained to His disciples all that would happen wh…

The day you received Jesus Christ, all things became new with you. “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” (2 Corinthians 5:17) If that happened twenty years ago or if it was last week, it is still true. However, we have to be reminded often of this newness so we can …

Paul was concerned that the Thessalonians were living in unnecessary hopelessness concerning loved ones who had died. God led him to write a precious set of verses that has graced Christian funerals and encouraged mourning hearts since the first century. Tonight we rejoice in these words and accept them as the very word of God. Thanks for joining u…

The moment we trusted Christ for the forgiveness of our sin and eternal life, we were totally, eternally forgiven. The penalty for our past, present and future sins was completely paid for at the cross of Calvary. It is impossible to add to the payment Christ already made on our behalf. Our position before God is as righteous as Jesus Christ Himsel…
