Sunday Sermons

This week we take a look at the Bible study method of word study.

This week is a breakdown of Old and New Testaments, arrangement, how to read them for context, and basic exegesis.

We want to trust the reliability of scripture. How can we know it's true? Even if we understand WHY it's important, we have to recognize that it is indeed reliable.

Why does the Bible need to be around? What's the difference between the Bible and other books of wisdom? Listen to this week's message to find out.

Dave Fox takes the pulpit this week to take a look at where we get our ability to live our life.

We take a look at the moment when the angel of the Lord comes and visits Joseph.

This week, we take a look at when the angel came to visit Mary. Listen to how she responds to an unexpected call from God.

Today, we begin our series through the Christmas season by looking at the moment when the angel of the Lord visited Zechariah in Luke 1.

When we are feeling anxious, we need to seek God's provision for today and not worry about our needs for tomorrow.

We recognize that we do not have to wait for heaven for God’s will to be done.   It should be done now.

Regardless of what happens on earth, we recognize that not only is God our Father, but he is Holy and set apart.

As we wrap up our series in Galatians, we are reminded, as we were from the beginning, that we are to boast in Jesus and nothing else.

Wherever you put most of your attention, there you will find what fruit you will bear.

We are no longer under the law but that doesn’t give us an excuse to continue sinning. The more we seek the Spirit, the more we will see His existence in our life.

Not only do we need to be careful where we get truth, we also need to make sure when we share this, we do so with the presence and power of God.

While it's good for us to root ourselves in the Old Testament to understand why Christ is needed, the only thing that matters now is faith expressing itself through love.

This section compares our freedom in Christ to Rebekah and Isaac, wife and son of Abraham who were his true heirs.   We are free because of our faithfulness to God and Christ’s sacrifice on the cross.

Paul is perplexed by the willingness of the Galatians to listen to the Judaizers here. Just as Paul warns the Galatians where they are getting their theology from, we, too, must be discerning with where we get our theology from as well.

As we move through the process of sanctification, we must continually rid ourselves of our old self and put on our new self in Christ.

We are the heirs of God and as such we have a responsibility to ensure that the father’s kingdom continues to move forward.

How could the law be good and why was it written in the first place?

Why was the law a curse? How does the Old Testament law lead us to the freedom of the Gospel?

We have always been justified by faith.   Even in the Old Testament, Abraham, before Jesus was crucified and conquered death, was counted as righteous because of his faith, not because of his works.

Remember back to when you were first saved.   The gospel didn’t come to you because you did a bunch of good things, the gospel came to you freely because of what Jesus did on the cross.   Finish what you started, correctly.

By the works of the law none will be justified.   We need to be careful to add nothing to the sacrificial work of Christ on the cross.   Christ alone!
