March 31, 2024 • Pastor Eldon Fehr • Revelation 1:17–18
The risen Christ must be embraced as the loving, eternal God who died to save us and then came to life to defeat death and give us eternal life. To do this, we need to see Him for who He really is, we need to experience the powerful touch of His mighty right hand, and we must hear & believe His words to us.
The Glory Of The Living One
March 31, 2024 • Pastor Jeremy Isaak • Revelation 1:17–18
Despite the incompatibility of God’s glory and our sin, through Christ’s death and resurrection we are offered comfort and invited to live without any fear of death. Because Jesus rose from the grave he can rightfully proclaim that he is the Living One who has full authority over death.
Love & Forgiveness
March 29, 2024 • Pastor Jonathan Neufeld • Revelation 1:5
Good Friday is a reminder of just how much it cost to forgive our sins. When we realize that our sins cost Jesus his very life, we are humbled to see not only God’s justice, but his incredible love for us. At the cross we see the reminder of his love in freeing us from our sins and making us his own.
Signs of the Cross
March 29, 2024 • Pastor Eldon Fehr • Revelation 1:5–6
The cross – that place where Jesus died, is a powerful sign that God loves us, that He has freed us from our sins by Jesus’ blood, and that He has secured our future for all of eternity. The cross is God’s grace to us, resulting in peace for every person who believes what Christ did.
Alive Forevermore
March 31, 2024 • Matt Shantz • Revelation 1:17–18
On Easter Sunday we celebrate the real Jesus; the Jesus who died in our place, rose victorious, and is alive forevermore. This Jesus is more powerful than we assume, more loving than we can imagine, and more trustworthy than we dare hope.
The Greatest Love on Display
March 29, 2024 • Dr. Jorge Salazar • Revelation 1:5–6
We have been looking with anticipation to Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday. We remember with joy what Christ has done for us, but at the same time, Good Friday is also a reminder of how evil we can be, and how sinful when rebelling against God, that when the Son of God came to us we hanged him on a cross for, as John said in his gospel, people loved the darkness rather than the light, because their works were evil.
There is a mix cup here, on the one hand we remember the sorrow and mourning over Jesus’ suffering and death, but on the other hand we recognize with gratitude the love and sacrifice He made for us so that we would be reconciled to God. Today we are reminded of whom Jesus is and what He has done for us.
As Christ followers in our society we can face difficult challenges as we seek to remain faithful to God and live life His way. Sometimes it seems that things are falling apart and we can't go on. John's final words in Revelation are written to give us the assurance we need that God is indeed in control...and in the end Jesus wins!
Jesus Is Coming Soon!
March 24, 2024 • Dr. Jorge Salazar • Revelation 22:6–21
The Apostle John, the one whom Jesus loved and outlived the rest of the Apostles, received the final words from God that he wrote and sent to the churches in the first century, that are far reaching to us as well, and to all of those who will come to faith in Christ until He comes.
In this letter Jesus has revealed how the story ends and He is encouraging us to persevere on His path and beware of the things to come, but also, He will give us a reassurance that I pray will encourage our lives in a way that remains with us through thick and thin, until we see Him face to face.
Return Of The King
March 24, 2024 • Pastor Kurtus Niessen • Revelation 22:6–21
As the book of Revelation draws to a close, the reader is left to answer two questions. First, “Have I had a personal encounter with Jesus Christ?” and second, “Am I ready to meet Him?” You need to be able to answer these because Jesus has promised “Surely, I am coming soon.” King Jesus is returning for His final unveiling but until He returns, He offers His free gift of forgiveness and salvation to anyone and everyone who will hear and respond to His call.
Come, Lord Jesus
March 24, 2024 • Pastor Ron van Akker • Revelation 22:6–21
As the book of Revelation draws to a close the reader is given a final set of three exhortations intended to spur them on towards faithfulness. Three sets counsel to bolster faithfulness, ground them in Christ, and encourage them on mission.
Our Forever Home
March 17, 2024 • Pastor Eldon Fehr • Revelation 22:1–5
A “forever home” is that “perfect” home one wants to settle into and never leave. This home is described in the book of Revelation ... our heavenly home – a place that has been refurbished & renovated by God where death, destruction, and darkness do not exist. Truly perfect. Forever
A Heavenly Restoration
March 17, 2024 • Pastor Jeremy Isaak • Revelation 22:1–5
Have you ever witnessed an incredible restoration? Whether it was a rusty old junker being restored or a fragmented marriage finding healing, watching beauty arise from brokenness is an incredible thing. In this passage, John describes heaven as a better restoration of the garden of Eden. In so doing he gives Christ followers a glorious future to look forward to.
The Face of God
March 17, 2024 • Pastor Jonathan Neufeld • Revelation 22:1–5
As we conclude this glorious picture of heaven, we are reminded that the whole Bible has been leading us to this point: we will see God face to face. This is the promise of eternal life, that we will experience the fullness of all that God created us for. The glory of heaven is shown as the physical creation is restored, and his people are reflecting his glory and reigning with him.
Like The Garden But Better
March 17, 2024 • Matt Shantz • Revelation 22:1–5
It’s been said that those who are so heavenly minded are of no earthly good, but frankly that’s not true and unbiblical. This sermon summarizes the picture we are given of the new heaven and new earth in Revelation 21-22 and concludes with implications for our lives both now and for-ever.
Citizens of the Heavenly City
March 10, 2024 • Pastor Jonathan Neufeld • Revelation 21:9–26
As John unravels more of the picture of heaven we are shown a heavenly city coming down to earth. One where God will dwell with his people forever in unimaginable beauty. We are shown this picture not simply so that we will know what it will be like, but that we could begin to reflect God’s design and purpose now.
