Christ Church Jerusalem

Joshua meets a person outside the walls of Jericho. This person has him remove sandals and bow. In this message we look at who this is and why his holiness changes us.

On God’s pathway we take one step of obedience at a time and only after reaching the destination are we able to look back and see how it all was connected. A burning bush (a call) was God’s response to a cry for deliverance. God’s plan involved the man Moses who had learned key lessons while shepherding in the desert for 40 years. There is no time wasted in God’s kingdom- long waiting is essential...

Abraham receives a blessing to be a blessing. He answers a call and then gets cold feet and needs assurance that God can fulfill the dream that God gave him. God then gives him a promise, a contract and a covenant, to help him trust.

When God gives Jesus Identity as Gods son and significance as being pleasing, Satan sets about questioning Jesus identity and earning his significance.

The Transfiguration is not only about seeing Jesus changed but how we become changed when we truly see him. Luke shows us why and how this happens to Peter and to us.

The two Witnesses | Revelation 11 with Phil Morrow by Christ Church Jerusalem

in the face of darkness and despair, Paul gives us a message of hope by talking about Death’s defeat and how through this truth we can face anything!

Agabus & Many Others | Acts 8-21 with Phil Morrow by Christ Church Jerusalem

Our Gospel passage highlights the role of the Spirit in the ministry of Jesus in both prophetic utterance and the working of miracles. These Scriptures challenge us to examine the true nature of prophecy and the dangers to those who exercise the gifts of the Spirit while ignoring Jesus’ teaching.

The Creator of the universe and King who reigns eternally on the throne is the Lord of angelic armies. But He asks sinners to be His witness here on earth. Throughout history, God has worked through the humble. We should acknowledge our sin before a holy God. But throughout history, God has also redeemed those who are sinners. He calls us, for we are some of those sinners, to be His disciples and...

John the Baptist | Luke 1 et al with John Arnold by Christ Church Jerusalem

When Joseph and Mary bring Jesus to the Temple they meet Simeon and Anna who reveal the identity and mission of the Messiah. That this revelation took place in the Temple is not incidental. What the Temple continues to teach us about worship, holiness, and the character of God are still significant today. This sermon is dedicated to Dwight Pryor, a teacher, mentor and inspiration to many.

HANANIAH | Jeremiah 28 with Phil Morrow by Christ Church Jerusalem

HULDAH & THE REIGN OF JOSIAH | 2 Kings 22, 2 Chronicles 34 with John Arnold by Christ Church Jerusalem

Jesus’ inaugural sermon in his home town synagogue frames his ministry in the words and context of the Jubilee redemption. According to Leviticus, the release of all debts and slaves, and returning land to its original owner is to happen every 49 years - a Jubilee on Yom Kippur, the day of repentance. Jesus’ offer of salvation for the World to Come (forgiveness of our sins/debts) and for salvation...

MICAIAH AND THE 400 | 1 Kings 22 with Phil Morrow by Christ Church Jerusalem

Attending a wedding at Cana was Jesus' first public event recorded in the Gospel of John. His presence at an ordinary occasion and the miracle of making a huge amount of wine sets the tone for this Gospel – Jesus is more than sufficient for any human need. At this event we get our first glimpse of discipleship. Before any of the Twelve began to believe and follow him, Jesus’ mother emerges as the...

The immersion of Jesus is remembered every year in liturgical churches, yet it can be confusing for Christians if we don’t understand the Jewish context of that important event. That context includes the call to radical repentance, the role of the Spirit in anointing Jesus for prophetic utterance, and the heavenly voice that affirms His identity – and ours as believers as well.
