Christ ascended to Reign, and the Spirit has filled God's people with power
This sermon traces the I AM statements in the Gospel of John and shows how each one emphasizes both the sufficiency of Christ and the exclusivity of His provision. It adds to the previous sermons in this series on the Five Reformation Solas and shows how they are all tightly knit together.
This sermon outlines the intricately interwoven events of the Passion week in a way that helps us to stand in awe of God's providence, wisdom, grace, and power. In the process it also helps to settle a number of controversial issues related to the chronology of that week that atheists have claimed were contradictions.
This sermon explores the implications of the grave clothes. Why did John conclude that Jesus had risen, when the women saw the same evidence and concluded that His body had been taken away?
This sermon covers hermeneutical principles 21-24. It shows how the principles of grace, peace, kingdom, God's power, and Christ's offices of prophet, priest, and king are woven tightly throughout the book of Revelation. The book begins with grace and peace being pronounced by Almighty God and the book ends with the pervasive results of that grace and peace. In between are chapters showing man's attempts to resist Christ's grace and peace. But as the last chapters will show, such resistance is futile. What God has pronounced will be achieved.
This sermon deals with the nature, beginning, and growth of the kingdom. *We apologize for the poor audio quality in this sermon, the recording went particularly bad this week.
While this sermon deals with the remaining principles of interpretation laid down by the apostle John, the main focus is upon the practical implications of union with Christ Jesus.
This passage focuses on the priestly, prophetic, kingly, and supernatural work that Jesus does each "Lord's Day."
This short paragraph gives 1) a profound Christology and 2) an apologetic against Judaism. Jesus alone can be invested with regal authority because Jesus alone fulfills all the Messianic prophecies.
This sermon untangles the controversies over the prophecy of Jesus being from Nazareth, the prophetic significance of being a Nazarene, the connection to all the passages describing the coming Messiah as "the branch," and more.
