The Gospel, Pt. 3 - Where is the Gospel?

The Provision of the Sufficient Sacrifice

October 22, 2023 • Pastor Jeremy Dente • Genesis 22:1–14, Genesis 12:1–3, Hebrews 10:1, Hebrews 10:9–10

Give

We continue our survey of the Old Testament presentations of the gospel, and find a powerful example in the story of Abraham and Isaac in Genesis 22. Not only that, but as we look at the life of Abraham, beginning as Abram in Genesis 12, we see how certain events of his life spawned the beginning of particular conflicts that continue to this day, namely between Israel and HAMAS and the Arab nations that surround Israel, most of which are seeking Israel's destruction and obliteration.

And yet, in light of God's covenant with Abraham, through his son Isaac, the gospel reminds us that God is faithful to his promises and his commitment to provide a way for all people to come to him through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The Gospel, Pt. 10 - How does the Gospel transform us?

December 24, 2023 • Pastor Jeremy Dente • 2 Corinthians 3:12–18, 2 Corinthians 4

In the conclusion of our series "The Gospel", we look at Paul's discourse in 2 Corinthians 3 and 4 to draw out how we are transformed by the gospel. Through this text, we'll see how we are enlivened by the Spirit, enlightened to truth, empowered through suffering, and extended by grace.

The Gospel, Pt. 9 - Why do we need the Gospel?

December 17, 2023 • Pastor Jeremy Dente • 2 Timothy 3:1–5, Romans 7:18–25, Romans 8

In today's day and age, it may come to question why we need the gospel. In light of continual scientific discovery and technological breakthrough, the need for the gospel may not clearly be recognized. However, the gospel could never be more necessary. In this message, we'll learn how the gospel accurately diagnoses our real problem - sin that still exists within our fleshly nature. Secondly, the gospel accurately identifies us as exceedingly evil, yet limitlessly loved. And lastly, the gospel offers us real hope.

The Gospel, Pt. 8 - Who is the Gospel for?

December 10, 2023 • Derek Hogg • 2 Corinthians 5:17–20, Mark 2:13–17, Romans 5:6–8, Romans 3:22–23, Colossians 2:13–14

In this message, we discover through God's word who the gospel is for, and who we are because of the gospel. We are reminded that the gospel is for sinners, as Jesus came to save sinners, not the self-righteous. And because of that truth, the gospel is for everyone, simply because we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. And in light of the gospel, we who have responded positively to the gospel and put our faith in Jesus Christ are forgiven and freed from sin. We are new creations in Christ who have the right to be called children of God!
