Journey To The Cross

They were two major events in history that became turning points for the entire world and all of mankind. These events not only impacted world history but also the eternal future. One involves a forbidden tree which led to sin; the other a tree which sin led to - this was the cross of Christ. Because the cross was the only way, Jesus set His sights upon Jerusalem; He finished His journey to the cross.

"Because His heart was focused on the joy of knowing that we would be His, He endured the agony of the cross, conquered its humiliation, and now He sits exalted at the right hand of the throne of God," - Hebrews 12:2 (TPT)

Us Who Are Being Saved

April 14, 2024 • Pastor Anthony J Shetley • 1 Peter 1:3–5

Is getting to heaven simple? Does one need to simply believe? Jesus said these words concerning entrance into heaven, “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. “For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it. (Matthew 7:13–14) So, If words mean anything, especially the words of Jesus, the way to heaven is neither simple nor easy. For this reason, we must take possession and seize upon what God has made available to us in His Son, Jesus Christ. God's mighty power will protect and keep us who trust in Him and abide in His grace.

Jesus Is Not A Liar

March 10, 2024 • Pastor Anthony J Shetley • John 8:31–44

What is truth and can we know it? Truth (by definition) is factual and absolute in nature. Therefore, truth cannot be subjective. Truth can’t be whatever we want it to be. Truth is a person; truth is the eternal Son of God; truth is Jesus the Christ!!! “You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free,” (Jesus, Christ) - John 8:32.

Jesus Is Not A Thief

March 3, 2024 • Pastor Anthony J Shetley • John 10:10

In His parable of the good shepherd, Jesus spoke of the thief who comes to steal, kill, and destroy. Without question Jesus is not speaking of Himself for Jesus came to give not take; He came to give us life, not to take life from us; and He came to restore and make new, not to destroy. A thief takes what doesn’t belong to him. All things belong to Christ. “God created everything through Him, and nothing was created except through Him.” (John 1:3 (NLT)) A thief takes without permission. Christ will never force or coerce us into giving Him anything. He says, “Whosoever will.” A thief is a liar and a scoundrel. Jesus is pure, just, and holy.
