How did God "save" us?

SAVED

August 27, 2023 • Pastor Ron Jones • Acts 9:1–9

How did God “save” us? Our salvation experience is greater than we often understand. God initiates it all as He comes close to His creation. Listen as Pastor Ron lays a foundation of the Ordo Salutis (the order of salvation) from Paul’s encounter in Acts 9.

Why should a person wear the Helmet of Salvation?

September 24, 2023 • Pastor Ron Jones • Ephesians 6:10–18

This is the final message in the "Saved" sermon series focused on salvation. In this message, the pastor explores why believers need to wear the helmet of salvation. He explains how the mind can be a battlefield and Satan uses lies and deception to attack our thinking. The helmet of salvation protects our minds from doubt, despair, and other spiritual attacks. With the assurance of salvation, we can have victory in the spiritual battles we face. This encouraging message will strengthen your trust in God's promise of eternal life.

Do you believe that a person is justified by faith?

September 10, 2023 • Pastor Ron Jones • Romans 5

In this week's sermon, we explore the biblical doctrine of justification - how God makes us righteous in His sight by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone. The scriptures reveal that all have sinned and fall short of God's perfect glory. Yet amazingly, Jesus Christ bore the punishment for our sins by dying on the cross. When we place our faith in Him, God declares us justified, removing our guilt and crediting us with the righteousness of Christ. This justification is an act of God's free grace, not something we can earn through personal merit.
