Goldfish remember things for only 3 seconds… Bulls go crazy if they see red… George Washington had wooden teeth… If you swallow gum it will stay in your stomach for 7 years… We are a gullible people and believe a lot of nonsense… Only one of those statements (the opinion) is true. Goldfish can remember for months. Washington had bad teeth, but his dentures even had ivory and gold in them (and some icky stuff). Bulls are green/red colorblind and hate the movement. Gum goes right through. I do believe we are gullible. If we believe so many myths and legends, then what are we believing about our spiritual lives that isn’t proven in the Word of God? Paul refutes a few things in this week’s passage.

Perhaps the title of the sermon brings a song to mind. Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrel sung it together in 1967, it was sung again in 1970 by Diana Ross and then sung in Sister Act and more recently Guardians of the Galaxy. The song says that nothing will “keep me from getting to you babe.” There is ONE that works even harder to love us and bring salvation to us. He even works when our sin is the greatest. God loves you – and He is reaching out to you!
Resurrection Sunday 2024 First Service
March 31, 2024
On Good Friday there was a tragedy. Jesus was falsely accused, falsely tried, falsely condemned, and died an innocent man. It was more than tragic. But that tragedy was intended for good by God the Father. He had a plan to redeem mankind from its sins. He paid the price by sacrificing His Son on our behalf. The reason that day is called “Good Friday” is because it led to forgiveness and to Sunday! Not only are we able to be free from death, but we can join Jesus in LIFE! He lives! Christ Jesus has Risen! He has Risen Indeed!

This week I was reminded that the empty tomb elicited all kinds of responses from different people. I was also reminded that Jesus did that a lot. At the cross…with His preaching...at His questioning…even at His triumphal entry into Jerusalem. One thing you can say about Jesus is that EVERYONE has an opinion. But…who do you say that He is?

How many people are Satisfied are satisfied with their lives? How many people would say: "I am exactly what I ought to be?" I doubt there are many like that. I believe most of us are saying: "I wish I could start over (at least somewhere) again." If that's the way you feel, or even think it might be that way in your life, I've got glorious, wonderful news for you; not from me, but from the Word of God today!

When Jesus gives us the ability to be saved – we shall surely be saved not only from the death to come, but from the world we live in right now! Praise the Lord, God is sanctifying us. He is working in our hearts! He is giving us the ability to follow Him and experience the life that He has in store for us! Are you ready to walk in the victory that comes from following Jesus? We will see how that is possible in the exciting conclusion of this amazing passage!

Have you seen the movie “The Hunt For Red October”? It was a fantastic movie about a Russian submarine captain that desired to defect to the USA. As the U.S. fleets are closing in on him, he is asked to verify his intention to defect with a single radar ping. He asks his crew for “one ping, one ping only.” There was no going back from that point forward. Everyone would know what the intention was. Whether in battle for this world or the one to come, our intentions are important. We, as Christians, are called to pick a side…one side only! Are you ready to make your intentions known? Jesus is asking to be your Lord…One Lord Only!

He Lives! He Lives! Christ Jesus Lives Today! Do you know the song? The great theology and doctrine of the Book of Romans comes to a point today! The gospel is the power to save (Rom 1:16); the salvation is so that we may transition from death to life! He lives and we too may live in Him! Wouldn’t it be awesome to live like it today! We can!

We are created in the image of God, but does that mean that we are like God? What is the comparison? Do we have His nature? Do we have His looks? Do we act like Him? Are we powerful like the Lord? Our text today is going to do a clear comparison between those who are “good” and God who is perfect. There is no comparison. God alone is truly good, and He alone saves us! Today we get to see how awesome that is, for in HIM we are very blessed—even blessed beyond comparison!

How many of you still balance your checkbook? Or reconcile your accounts? While it may be a dying art, there is something very satisfying about knowing how much money you have, to the penny, and not just guessing! When you put pen to paper, (or mouse to click???), you know that it doesn’t always balance. Fortunately, with the Lord, our accounts are always balanced! He is faithful to make things right – and that starts with us and the Father! Praise the Lord!

WWJD—a craze that hit the world hard. There were signs, bracelets, bumper stickers, and of course, all kinds of people walking around saying, “WWJD?” It was catchy, trendy, and hopefully it helped people stop and think about what they were doing before they did it. I am not hoping to start a new trend. I won’t be making bumper stickers or even selling bands for your wrist. I do want us to go beyond the question though and follow the examples found in Scripture concerning taking people to Jesus. Andrew was such a man. Let’s be like him; he knew that Jesus was the answer!

Our 2024 New Year’s Challenge continues with The LORD of the Harvest! He not only challenges us to get involved in sharing the gospel, but he tells us to pray! Pray for those that would come to know Him (just like He did) and pray for others to be a part of the harvest. The Lord is willing to reap a great harvest – let’s take the blessing and be part of it!
