Plenteous Redemption
by Donald Cantrell
Sadly days like today happen, they happen to those that are ready and to those that are not ready. The bible promises us a certainty about death and that certainty is that all of us will die. Today we are gathering for the funeral of someone that went well before his time, the funeral of a mother's son, an only son, an imperfect son, yet a son that had trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ. Heb 9:27 KJV - And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: In our bible reading today we are going to look at someone that was facing dreadful calamity and heartache. If you are a living being, you will not...
Embracing Redemption (18 of 52)
by Christopher Harbin
It is easy to slip into the comfortable structures of the gospel as it has been popularized. It is easy to repeat the creeds of the faith, mention justification by faith, shout ''Jesus Saves!'' or even quote John 3:16. Those are all important aspects of the Christian faith. They are essential elements of the gospel, and yet by themselves, they may ring hollow, for the good news Jesus preached and lived goes far beyond the simple recitation of a text, the acceptance of a doctrinal position, or repeating a bumper sticker phrase of popular faith. When the gospel calls us to do more than pay lip service to our relationship with...
Redemption's Goal: A Feast with God (12 of 17)
by Drew Hunter
In a sentence, this is what we see: Being a Christian is about wholehearted devotion to God, under his grace, enjoying his presence. This is the life that Jesus invites us into and that we are to enjoy now. This is our eternal future. And this is what Israel receives a taste of in Exodus 24. But it's just a taste... and it's a foretaste of what we enjoy as Christians now and more so in the coming age. CONTEXT The book of Exodus has three movements, and we're at the end of the second. The first movement is Israel coming out of Egypt. This is the first 18 chapters of Exodus. God rescues them by grace. The second movement...
Romance Of Redemption
by Adrian Rogers
Would you take your bibles please today and turn with me to Genesis chapter twenty four, Genesis chapter twenty four. Now, if those of you who are bible students know right away we're in a very beautiful and sacred section of God's word. I want to speak to you today on this subject, THE ROMANCE OF REDEMPTION. One of the things that has amazed me every time I see someone do it is to watch an artist paint a portrait. Now, I've not set through the entire painting of artist who is really a, really skilled artist and watch him paint a portrait, but sometimes even in county fairs or somewhere I've been amazed at how an artist with...
The Race of Redemption
by James Merritt
I believe that if the apostle Paul were alive today the first piece of the newspaper he would pick up and read would be the sports page. Paul I believe was a sports fan. He enjoyed the thrill of competition, the excitement of winning and the lesson that you can learn from losing. On several occasions Paul likened the Christian life to a race. He talked about winning the victory crown. He was enamored I believe with sports. Today we live in a sports minded generation. Nothing excites people more today than sports. Sports have become a religion and its champions have become Gods. I read the other day about a husband...
The Redemption of the Body
by Jesse Hendley
Now, friends, if you have your Bibles, turn with me to Romans 8, and we want to speak to you on The Redemption of Our Bodies at the Return of the Lord Jesus Christ. Paul says, "We ourselves also (Christians) who have the firstfruits of the Spirit groan within ourselves, waiting for our Adoption, that is, the Redemption of our body." Waiting expectantly for the redemption of our BODIES! The Bible has much to say about our bodies, and we ought to know what God has to say. Sometimes we live as though we are going to be in these bodies forever, but we are not. I reminded you in a previous message that in...
The High Cost of Redemption
by Daniel Rodgers
Today is Easter Sunday. It is the day we celebrate the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. On a cross 2,000 years ago, the ultimate sacrifice was paid...a price so high, no one could have paid it except Jesus. Churchill said of the 101st Airborne Division: "Seldom has so much American blood been shed in the course of a single action. Oh, Lord, help us to remember!" Thank God for the blood of our American soldiers, and thank God for the blood that has been shed recently in Afghanistan and Iraq. Their sacrifices give us the freedom we enjoy today: But, may I say to you, we celebrate a freedom this Easter Sunday...
Lord of Redemption (6 of 17)
by Robert Dawson
I think deep down everyone wants to be good at something. For others they have an intense desire to be the best at what they do, the best ever. It drives them. It motivates them. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be the best. I remember being told when I was younger to always do your best, strive to be the best you can be and try to beat the best so you can be the best. I was also told that eventually someone would come along who is faster, smarter, and more talented, hit farther, hit with better average, throw better, field better or sing better. There is an old saying in sports that goes something like this, 'records are...
The River of Redemption (2 of 2)
by Roger Thomas
There are two sides to the story of the cross, the crucifixion of Jesus--his and ours. His was ugly and brutal. Crucifixion was death by torture. No amount of sentimentalism or romanticizing can change the reality of the cross. It is what it is! Despite that the followers of Jesus insisted that the cross was the heart of their faith. Paul called the message of the cross "the power of God." (1 Cor 1:18) He insisted, "I resolved to know nothing . . . except Jesus Christ and him crucified. (1 Cor 2:5) "May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ." (Gal 6:14) What was it about the story of the cross that led to such devotion...
Sweet Redemption (4 of 4)
by Keith Krell
Lori and I come from a long line of photographers. Over the years Lori has collected pictures and created photo albums of our family. We store these albums away in a closet. When we occasionally get nostalgic, we take the photo albums out and leaf through the pictures. This past month as I was walking through our family room, I caught my son Justin looking through stacks of our family photo albums. Apparently, he was really bored, or he was seeking to relive the memories of his youth all over again. In either case, pictures help us to keep the story alive. As we've studied through the book of Ruth, we've looked at some pictures...
Proclaiming God's Redemption
by Christopher Harbin
After the long hot ride on a dusty stone-paved road, he must have been tired. There are any number of reasons to suggest why he fell off his horse. He might have fallen asleep, rocked to oblivion by the incessant riding motion. He might have spent too long sweating in the sun with too little water. It could have been a combination of fatigue, dehydration, or the horse's stumbling on a rougher stretch of road. There aren't too many heroes whose stories begin with falling off a horse, but this is one. In Paul's case, this may even be the best known portion of his story. It was a momentous event in his life. It was transforming. Maybe...
Redemption (4 of 4)
by Dave Gustavsen
So we've been saying that Ruth is a story about loss. Because this woman, Naomi, loses so many things. There's a famine in her hometown of Bethlehem, so she and her husband and their two sons go to a place called Moab, looking for food. When they're in Moab, first her husband and then both of her adults sons die. So she returns to Israel with her one daughter-in-law, Ruth. Naomi feels bitter and empty; Ruth somehow has the energy and the optimism to go out in the fields and find work; and she winds up in the field of a guy named Boaz. Boaz is not only an eligible bachelor; he's related to Naomi's family-which, in...
The Importance of Earth's Redemption (6 of 15)
by Stan Coffey
When Adam and Eve fell into sin, Satan appeared to have ruined God's plan for a righteous humanity to rule the earth to God's glory. Yet, immediately after the Fall, God promised a redeemer, the seed of the woman, who would one day come and crush the serpent. "I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head and you will strike his heel." (Genesis 3:15) While the wound of sin was still fresh, before the first scar had formed, God unveiled His plan to send a fully human redeemer who would be far more powerful than Satan. In an act of intervention to deliver...
The Rewards of Redemption at Ephesus (3 of 15)
by Donald Cantrell
The event was the shooting of several people in the church parking lot and building that left three dead and three wounded. The young man, who had done the shooting, killed himself after being shot by a security guard. Earlier that day, he had entered Youth with A Mission Headquarters in suburban Denver, shooting four and killing two. His name was Matthew Murray, and he had been raised in a Christian home. The tragedy shook the church that had just started to come out of the painful and very public story about their former pastor's, Ted Haggard, sexual sin. Now they were faced with this terrible tragedy. In a recent Christianity...
Rahab's Red Ribbon of Redemption (3 of 13)
by Brad Whitt
INTRO: Take your Bibles now this morning and be finding your place at Joshua chapter 2 as we continue in our series of studies through this amazing, challenging and inspiring Old Testament book that we've entitled, ''Victorious: Strong, Courageous Faith.'' ILLUS: There's something about women and ribbons - Laura Kate at the wedding taking out the ribbon from the wedding service order. In Joshua, chapter 2, we are introduced to a shady lady by the name of Rahab. She's a prostitute who lived in a pagan city called Jericho. For you history buffs, Jericho is the oldest city in all of the world. There's no other city...
The Story of Redemption- What Is the Gospel, What It Is Not- and How to Share It (8 of 19)
by Michael White
For the past 11 weeks we have talked about apologetics and answering objections that skeptics might have= How can you say there is only one true religon- or doesn't science disprove christianity? It's helpful to know how to answer these questions- but fundamentally, most these don't prove christianity itself. They prove theism. Theism is true but theism doesn't get you to heaven. Anthony Flew- famous atheist philosopher- became a theist- Christians praised it. You not only need to believe that there is a god (everyone believes in a God- only 3% of US is atheist) you need to believe in the God who is. You need to believe in...
Grace: The Price of Our Freedom
by Ken Trivette
One of the worst evils in the history of humanity was slavery. In the first century world in the Roman Empire, there were more than 6 million people who were regarded as slaves. One in five people served as a slave. Therefore, one of the most productive economic businesses at the time of this writing was the buying and selling of slaves. How were these slaves able to be set free? For example: If you had a loved one or a friend who was a slave, you would have to buy that slave for yourself and then give him freedom, granting to him a written certificate of it at the same time. In the various cities and towns in the...
Redeeming Grace (13 of 14)
by Stan Coffey
If you have God's Word turn to Ephesians 1:7. Aren't you glad that God has ordained and given us a day that we can come and rest from the busyness of the world, amen? And we can be refreshed and be restored, that is what the Lord's Day is all about. You know when I think about how busy we are I think about a story that I heard recently about a man who was hitch hiking down the road, in fact I was reminded of this yesterday. I was going down the service road at I-40 west of Soncy and I noticed there was a hitchhiker and he had a dog with him, a dog on a leash, a hound dog. And I thought well if someone picks him...
God’s Forever Plan (5 of 7)
by Scott Maze
Darren Goforth was a 10-year veteran of the Harris County Sheriff's Office when he was murdered at a suburban Houston Chevron station just two Fridays ago. While many of us were busy heading out to enjoy Friday night football, authorities say the deputy was the victim of a ''cold-blooded assassination.'' Goforth was in uniform while filling up his patrol car and in uniform when he was targeted around 8:30 pm (August 28, 2015). The officer was approached from behind when multiples shots were fired. In fact, this unprovoked attack continued as the assailant continued to fire shots even after the deputy had fallen to the...
It's Not Too Late to Turn Your Life Around
by Scott Maze
Here was a man who brought to the gate of the Temple daily in order to beg. Peter and John are on their way to the Temple for the time of prayer. They would have seen this man before this day because Luke tells us he was placed their daily. We are told he was lame from birth and unable to work. I think I would have really liked to see this man not only walk but leap. 1.1 Miracles Restore God's Order ''then shall the lame man leap like a deer, and the tongue of the mute sing for joy. For waters break forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert'' (Isaiah 35:6) Isaiah 35 is describing what's going to happen in this world when...
