Sermons from The Crossing Church (TCCJAX) Jacksonville, FL

God sovereignly shows His wrath and mercy to remind us of the awesome riches of His glory!

God sovereignly executes his purposes according to election

God’s promise and covenant with Abraham for an offspring in which the promise will be made. God’s Sovereignty in all things despite man’s idolatry of themselves and their sin. God’s promise fulfilled through Jesus Christ.

Paul’s anguish towards his fellow Israelites that are unsaved based on their rejection of Jesus as the Messiah. Paul is desperately pleading with his kinsmen to come to Christ and we should be doing the same for the lost in our lives.

We are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ. There is no one who can separate us from God’s love and no one who can reverse what He’s done.

As adopted children of God, we have a hope of eternity that causes us to long for that day when we will be with God – and this hope enables us to endure the present sufferings.

As adopted children of God, our lives are not immediately purged of sin; rather, we are now able to recognize indwelling sin and fight against it daily.

We find real freedom when we are slaves to God, pursuing righteousness daily and receiving the fruit of the Holy Spirit that makes us more into the image of Christ.

Jesus’ Resurrection was of eternal significance, but not only. His resurrection changes how we interact with sin in our lives daily.

Justification is God’s declaration that we are righteous. It Is a declaration that stands for all eternity – the righteousness of God accounted to us freely by His grace, through Jesus Christ!

God grants us righteousness through faith alone.

Paul explains that sin is not something we do, it is a part of our very nature.

Paul shows us that possessing God’s truth and knowing God’s truth are not sufficient for salvation. Rather, our obedience to God’s truth written on our hearts is what God will judge – the secrets of men.

We so often find ourselves consumed with the immorality in our lives and the lives of others, but this immorality is simply a symptom of a much deeper and profound problem – we’ve exchanged the worship of God for the worship of ourselves.

The Good News is that God has accomplished all that is necessary for our rescue. The gift of eternal life is secured not by our strength or works, but by His Son Jesus Christ.

We worship God by recognizing Him as the only one who can solve our deepest need, our sin infection.

We worship God by desiring His presence above all things. Recognizing that His presence is Heaven to us.

We worship God not just with songs and words, but with our very hearts. When we take refuge in God we declare our affection for Him and this is how we may worship Him.

God’s character gives us hope in every circumstance in life. Not just a vacuous hope in the sky, but a real tangible hope that as followers of Christ we can know every day.

Depression, grief, and sorrow are real feelings that God intends for us to feel. But these feelings should not cripple us or stagnate our faith – they should drive us into the presence of God in worship!

God’s majesty is revealed in how He sovereignly acts, how He has created, and how He sustains His creation. His majesty makes Him worthy of our praise.

Jesus did not bring some general form of peace to all of humanity – He delivered peace between rebellious humanity and God. It is that peace that pours over into the lives of those who follow Him.
