Calendar of God

Sermon,

Jesus is our Passover Lamb who saves us from the judgment of God (Leviticus 23:4-8).
And His sinless death makes us unleavened bread in God’s eyes, so we should purge from ourselves corruption and puffed-up pride (1 Corinthians 5:20-26).
But Christ didn’t stay dead, He rose from the grave, being the Firstfruit of the resurrection with more resurrections to come (Leviticus 23:9-14 and 1 Corinthians 15:20-26).
Then Fifty days later, Pentecost celebrates the wheat harvest with firstfruit offering, just as the gift of the Spirit is the firstfruit of our salvation (Romans 8:23) and the start of the great harvest (Acts 2:41).
What’s next on the calendar?
The blowing of trumpets (Leviticus 23:23-25 and 1 Corinthians 15:52-52)

Mission of God

Sermon, ,

Jesus accomplished His mission objectives of making disciples, defeating the enemies of sin, devil, and death, as well as preparing His followers to continue to kingdom work. They were to not worry about times and events, but to testify of the risen King and make disciples, starting in Jerusalem and expanding from there. The Book of Acts is about the Holy Spirit empowering them to expand His kingdom. Let’s go!

Acts 1:1-14

Justice and Mercy

Sermon, ,

The destruction of the nation, the capital city including the royal family, and the temple with its priesthood was the darkest moment thus far in the history of the descendants. Jeremiah saw it all happen before his eyes. Worse yet, he had faithfully warned and pleaded with the people to turn from their rebellion and turn toward God, but to no avail. Yet he endured their punishment along with them, though not a partaker in their sins. The Lamentations is his poem of grief for God’s people and to remind them that it is not yet too late to come back to God. It’s not too late to hope in God.

Lamentations 3:16-33

Wash with Word

Sermon, ,

How shall a person be cleansed from sin? By guarding their way with the Word of God. We cover a lot of ground for this Bible study as we look a lot of Psalms that are examples of doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness.

Psalm 119:9-16, 18
Ephesians 5:25-27 2 Timothy 3:16-17

Brad’s thought verses: Philippians 4:6-8 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 Romans 12:1-2 Psalm 19:12-14 Psalm 139:23-24
Doctrine: Psalm 68:5-6 Psalm 103:8-13 Psalm 136:1
Reproof: Psalm 27:1 Psalm 42:11 Psalm 121:1-2
Correction: Psalm 19:12-14 Psalm 139:23-24
Instruction in Righteousness: Psalm 37:4-5, 23-24 Psalm 118:8, 24
D.L. Moody – “The Bible was not given to increase our knowledge, but to change our lives.”
