Through His death and resurrection, Jesus has made forgive...

When Jesus returns in glory, every person will stand before Him and our true relationship with Him will be revealed.

In the Parable of the Talents, Jesus teaches that while we await His return, we are called to faithfully steward everything God has entrusted to us for His purposes. The faithful servants respond to their master’s generosity with trust and obedience, while the unfaithful servant’s actions reveal a heart that does not truly know or trust his master. Our faithfulness does not earn our place in God’s...

Jesus calls us to be ready for His return—not merely by identifying ourselves as Christians, but through genuine faith in Him that bears fruit in a life of faithfulness.

Because Jesus has given Himself for us, we are called to know Him, trust Him, and live...

Jesus does not call us to predict the timing of His return, but to live faithfully in light of its certainty. Because Christ has borne our sin and judgment at the cross, His people can anticipate His return with hope rather than fear—living with an eternal perspective, faithfully stewarding what He has entrusted to us, and longing for the day when we will be with Him forever.

As Jesus begins the Olivet Discourse, He calls His followers away from fear and speculation about the future and toward faithful living in the present.

In Matthew 23:1-12 Jesus exposes the "masks of hypocrisy" worn by religious leaders who demand moral perfection from others while seeking self-exaltation and human praise.

The Sadducees thought they had cornered Jesus with an impossible question about the resurrection, but instead He exposed the deeper issue—they knew neither the Scriptures nor the power of God.

In Matthew 22:15-22 Jesus navigates a political trap to reveal that while we have responsibilities to earthly authorities, our ultimate allegiance and our hearts belong to God alone. This message challenges us to move beyond religious flattery and outward appearances to render our true selves back to the One whose image we bear.

In our Matthew 21:23-46 Jesus confronts the religious leaders with hard questions and revealing parables that expose the danger of resisting God’s authority.

Kingdoms clash as Jesus clears the temple and curses the fig tree, exposing the sharp contrast between empty religiosity and genuine spiritual fruit.

In this sermon on 1 Corinthians 15:35–49, we explore how the resurrection of Jesus guarantees believers a real, physical, glorified body designed for eternity in God’s presence. He shows how this hope sustains us through suffering, reframes our view of death, and anchors our lives in the imperishable promises of the gospel.
