https://newsongpeople.com/messages/suffered-crucified-dead-buried-descended What really happened at the cross—and why does it matter for your Monday? In this powerful fourth message of our Life Blood series, we walk deep into the heart of the gospel: the suffering, crucifixion, death, burial, and descent of Jesus. This isn’t just history—it’s your story . The cross isn’t something that just happened to Jesus. It’s something that happened because of us—and for us. Pastor [Your Name] unpacks Matthew 27 and the Apostles’ Creed to show how Jesus didn’t just die for sin—He died for you . To reconcile. To restore. To make you whole. From the brutal reality of the crucifixion to the soul-thirst of spiritual separation, this message shows how Jesus went through hell so you don’t have to. Whether you’re feeling broken, distant from God, or just going through the motions—this message is an invitation to receive what’s free , belong to what’s real , and let the gold of grace fill your deepest cracks . 🕊️ You are not beyond repair. You are not alone. You are not a stranger. You belong. 🙌 Don’t just hear the gospel—step into it. — 📖 Scripture: Matthew 27, Luke 23, John 19, Isaiah 52–53, 2 Corinthians 5:21 🧾 Creed Focus: Suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; He descended into hell. 📍Join us every week as we walk through the Apostles’ Creed and rediscover the heartbeat of our faith. 🔔 Subscribe + turn on notifications so you don’t miss a message! 💬 Drop a comment—How has Jesus reconciled your story? #LifeBlood #TheCross #Jesus #NewSongChurch #ApostlesCreed #SermonSeries #EasterEveryDay #FaithAndGrace…

https://newsongpeople.com/messages/the-miracle-meaning-of-the-virgin-birth What do you know about what Christians actually believe? In this message, we dive into the foundational truths of the Christian faith, exploring the Apostles’ Creed and its powerful declaration that “I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth.” Learn what Scripture teaches about the Trinity and discover how the doctrine of God as Father shapes our identity, prayer, and daily lives. #Lifeblood #GodTheFather #christianfaith #trinity #childofgod #faithfuel #identityinchrist #bibleteaching #christianliving #spiritualgrowth #kingdomfamily NOTES: We must continually revisit the core truths of our faith, for they are the lifeblood that nourishes our relationship with God. - Tozer Knowing what we believe is how we suit up for battle. (Ephesians 6) We can’t afford silence. (Romans 10) Belonging to the body of Christ requires belief in specific content. (Romans 10) What do you know about what Christians actually believe? Creeds are not replacements for Scripture—they’re faithful reflections of it. They help guard the gospel, articulate truth, and pass the faith from generation to generation. “Theologically hollow congregations and pastors may like to think they will bequeath a gospel legacy to the next generation, but the truth is we only pass on what is our passion. New converts and new kids won’t think and live and love like mature Christians, let alone be able to articulate the Christian story, if our beliefs rest in a statement of faith on the website, and not in our hearts.” - DeYoung I believe in God, the Father Almighty, the Creator of heaven and earth,And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord:who was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell.The third day He arose again from the dead.He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty, whence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. We believe in the Holy Spirit,the holy catholic (universal) church, the communion of saints,the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. I BELIEVE The Christian understanding of faith includes both knowledge and conviction—the head and the heart working together. Faith involves thinking, learning, and engaging our minds. Conviction is what happens when the truth we know becomes truth we trust. The object of our faith matters more than the strength of our faith. It’s not the strength of your faith that saves you. It’s the strength of your Savior. I BELIEVE IN GOD Christians believe in the eternal, triune God. One God in three persons. The Trinity 1. There is only one God. 2. The Father is God. 3. The Son is God. 4. The Holy Spirit is God. 5. The Father is not the Son. 6. The Son is not the Holy Spirit. 7. The Holy Spirit is not the Father. There are three persons in the one true and living God: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. They are the same in essence, equal in power and glory. 1. There is only one God. (Deut 6:4, Isa 43:10, Mark 12:29) 2. The Father, Son, and Spirit are distinct persons. (Luke 3:22) 3. Each person is fully God. (1 Cor 8:6, 1 Pet 1:3, John 1:1, Titus 2:13, Heb 1:8, Acts 5:3-4)I believe in God, the Father Almighty, the Creator of heaven and earth We are children of God, not by right of human birth but by the miracle of divine adoption. John 1:12-13 But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God, who were born, not of blood or of the will of the flesh or of the will of man, but of God. If you want to judge how well a person understands Christianity, find out how much he makes of the thought of being God’s child, and having God as his Father. If this is not the thought that prompts and controls his worship and prayers and his whole outlook on life, it means that he does not understand Christianity very well at all. For everything that Christ taught, everything that makes the New Testament new, and better than the Old, everything that is distinctively Christian as opposed to merely Jewish, is summed up in the knowledge of the Fatherhood of God. “Father” is the Christian name for God. – J.I. Packer 2 Corinthians 5:19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. Romans 8:15 The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.” Behold, ponder, contemplate—be astonished, smitten and speechless “at the great love the Father has lavished on us. (1 John 3:1) How can you apply the truth that God is your Father? 1. Pray like a child, not a performer. 2. Love the family you’ve been adopted into. 3. Start your day with the Trinity.…

https://newsongpeople.com/messages/jesus-the-christ-gods-son-our-lord What do you believe about Jesus? In Week 2 of our Lifeblood series, we dive into the essential truths of our faith—truths that give life, strength, and purpose to our walk with God. This week, Pastor Sarah unpacks one powerful line from the Apostles’ Creed: “And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord.” Who is Jesus? He’s not just a good teacher or one of many spiritual options—He is the Christ, the Anointed One, the Son of the Living God, and the Lord over all. And if that’s true, it changes everything. Discover how these foundational truths call us to real alignment, rooted belief, Kingdom community, and God-directed purpose. Jesus doesn’t just invite us to believe in Him—He calls us to follow Him with our whole lives. Listen now and let these truths reshape how you think, live, and love. Notes “We must continually revisit the core truths of our faith, for they are the lifeblood that nourishes our relationship with God.” – A.W. Tozer Lifeblood - The vital, sustaining force that gives something life, strength, and continuity; the essential element without which something cannot survive or thrive. The Apostles’ Creed was created as a statement of faith, designed to give everyday followers of Jesus a way to know, remember, and confess the essentials of their faith. The Apostles’ Creed was like the early church’s doctrinal backbone. In a time of persecution and doctrinal distortion, it was a stabilizing force. — Rick Renner The Apotsles Creed points us to the good stuff—it leads us to Scripture. Discernment is not knowing the difference between right and wrong. It is knowing the difference between right and almost right. — Charles Spurgeon 1. JESUS IS THE CHRIST 2. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD 3. JESUS IS LORD Matthew 16:13 When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” 14 So they said, “Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. 1. JESUS IS THE CHRIST Matthew 16:16 “You are the Christ...” “Christ”= Anointed One. “Christ” - Greek word Christos - anointed by God as King Matthew 16:16 …the Son of the living God.” 2. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD You see Jesus didn’t need that title to make Him something He wasn’t. He didn’t need to be upgraded—He already was God. Jesus is not God like, He is God. John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Colossians 1:15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. God came near. John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. Jesus is God—and He moved toward us. 3. JESUS IS LORD If Jesus is Lord, His message demands more than agreement—it commands allegiance. Mathew 16:17 “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. Mathew 16:18 and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. The church doesn’t get built on a vague belief in God. If He’s the Christ—then He’s the King. If He’s the Son—then He’s divine. And if He’s both of those… then He must be Lord! Alignment Belief Community Direction A — Alignment He gets to define the reality of how I live my life. It’s whole-life realignment under His Lordship. Real freedom doesn’t come from the illusion of you having control—it comes from trusting the One who’s actually in control. B — Belief Everyone on the planet believes something about Jesus. Jesus didn’t present Himself as one option among many—He made it clear: He is the way. It’s not, “What do people say?” But, “Who do you say I am?” C — Community To belong to Christ is to belong to His Body… To be united with Him is to be united with His Church. Romans 12:5 So in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We don’t build walls to keep the world out—we break them down to bring the Gospel in. D — Direction He’s not just our example. He’s our compass. He doesn’t just inspire us—He directs us. John 10:10 I have come that you might have life—and have it to the full. You’re not good enough to save yourself, and you’re not too far gone for God to save you.…
