What Jesus Accomplished through His Death on the Cross-Pt1

Gary DeLashmutt

Colossians 2:13-14

Early in Christianity, false teachers rose up to say Jesus's death on the cross was not spiritually significant. But the Bible is emphatic that Jesus' death on the cross was a very significant. It accomplished what no man could do. It demonstrated why we need forgiveness. It displayed how God provided forgiveness. And it showed the amazing extent of God's forgiveness.

Jesus' Invitations:John 6

Gary DeLashmutt

John 6:53-56

In John 6, Jesus challenges His listeners to prioritize spiritual food over temporal, perishable food. Only God's Messiah can provide this spiritual food. The only condition one must fulfill is to believe in God's Messiah, Jesus. Jesus is the sole source of spiritual life for all of humanity. Call out to Him, acknowledge your hunger, and ask Him to satisfy it and He will abundantly.

Forget None of His Benefits

Mike Sullivan

Psalms 103

In this Psalm, David calls on himself, God's people and all of creation to praise God. C.H. Spurgeon says this Psalm peaks "overtop the rest." Because God's compassion and grace are inexhaustible and He offers mercy we don't deserve, we must forget none of His benefits. If we neglect giving God the praise He deserves, we risk becoming an ingrate who is increasingly deceived and more easily overwhelmed. But for those who revere him, His lovingkindness is from everlasting to everlasting.

Community Renewal:Christ Is All in All

Jim Leffel

Colossians 3:10-17

As Christians, we have become a new creation in Christ, not just as individuals but also as the corporate body of Christ. We are to put on the newness of Christ not merely as individuals but as a whole community. A renewed community thrives on grace, is united through love, cultivates peace, grows in truth, and reflects Christ to others.

A Community of Forgiveness

Conrad Hilario

Matthew 18:21-34

Forgiveness is necessary to healthy Christian community. It calls on us to lay aside our right to make someone pay, even for grievous wrongs. While difficult, it reflects our appreciation for all our wrongs that God has forgiven.

God's Eternal Kingdom Part 4

Mike Sullivan

Revelation 22:13-21

In the final chapter of Revelation, God comes full circle. He restores what was lost in the garden of Eden. He restores life where there was death. He restores our separation from God, from self and from nature. All ills will be healed. We will have direct access to God and eternal life. We will co-rule with God. God has always had a plan and all problems will be resolved. He promises he is coming quickly. Do you believe it?

Jesus and Simon Peter

Ben Foust

John 21:1-17

Peter's three-fold denial of Jesus was a failure of faith. As fallen humans, we over-estimate the strength of our intentions and faithfulness. Jesus anticipates our failures but has a vision for us beyond our failures. He forgives our failures and restores us relationally. He refines our character through our failures and redeems our failures.

The Sermon on the Mount - Part Three

Ryan Lowery

Matthew 5:17-48

In part 3 of this look at the Beatitudes, Jesus addresses the nature of God's Law, which had been incorrectly expanded by the rabbis of the time to create an inappropriate focus on keeping the "letter of the law." Jesus instead called on people to follow the deeper spirit of the law, which is far more difficult--in fact, we should understand it to be impossible. Instead we need Jesus' offer of forgiveness to open the door to God fulfilling the letter of the law, and empowering us to better honor the spirit of the Law.

Working Out What God Has Put In

Dennis McCallum

Philippians 2:12-16

To work out your salvation with fear and trembling may at first glance sound like we must work for our salvation with fear and doubt, but that is not at all what Paul is saying here. As believers, our salvation from the penalty of sin is eternally secure. Paul is encouraging us to live out the reality of the forgiveness that God has put into us at the moment we received his forgiveness. As we live in light of that truth, we will shine like stars to a watching world.
